Moderate Expansion In Trade.

The advance of the fall season and
the notable enlargement of the move

This is especially marked at West

ters, but the point is made that agri-
cultural sections have done better
relatively than large industrial cities
in the matter of retail trade, possibly
because of warm weather or the re-
duced purchasing power of city work
ers and the high prices paid for farm
products.
Industries, too, have shown some
Improvement, notable in this respect
being coal and lumber interests. There
is also more doing at the paper mills.

Taft and Bryan at Same Board.

For the first time in the history
of modern politics, two rival can
didates for the presidency of the
United States will meet at the same
board and address the same aud.
ience, when William II. Taft, Re.
publican, of Ohio, and William J.
Bryan, Democrat, of Nebraska, are to
be the guests of honor at the annual
banquet of the Chicago Association of
Commerce at the Auditorium on the
evening of Oct. Z.
This announcement was made at
the headquarters of the Chicago AS
sociation Of Commerce, which organ
ization had already received assur.
ances of the presence of the two pres
idential nominees on different days
at the third convention of the Lakes
to the Gulf Deep Waterway associa-
tion, for which the Association of
Commerce will act as host.
1t already had been announced that
Mr.. Taft would open the convention
on the afternoon of Oct Z and that
Mr., Bryan would close it on Oct 8
and that Mr. Taft would be the guest
of honor at the banquet on the even
ing of Oct. Z. Mr.. Bryan's acceptance
of the dinner invitation, however, as
suring notable occasion, came as
pleasant surprise.
The long distance telephone figured
prominently in the negotiations to Sc
cure the presence of Mr.. Bryan at the
banquet. The invitation had been un.
der serious consideration by Norman
E Mack, chairman of the Democratic
national committee, for some time and
at late hour at night he called up
Mr.. Bryan, then at Terre Haute, Ind,
on the long distance telephone.
Mr.. Bryan, who had retired for the
night, arose, dressed himself and an
swered the call. He was informed,
as Mr.. Taft had been, that the ban
quet would be non-political one and
that 1t would be held under the au-
spices of non partisan organization.
He readily agreed to attend The
deep waterways project is favored by
the leaders of both parties and is not
therefore subject over which any po-
litical discussion is expected.

Attorney General Wade II. Ellis of
Ohio, who was q member of the com.

form made by w. ]. Bryan. The at

spect to the use of the writ of injunc-
ton was designed TO deceive the In.
boring man is unworthy of q candi.
date for president, and the further
charge that this plank merely declares
the existing law and will give no relief
in those cases in which there has been
an abuse or discretion or the apprehen,
sion of 1t is unworthy of any lawyer
who has examined the question.
'The anti-injunction resolution is a
frank, clear statement Of the Republic
an party's position on question on
which others have been attempting to
deceive labor. The sole basis of any
rational complaint as to the issuance
OF lnJunctl0nS Ill labor cases has been
the use of the writ without notice and
the long delays in some instances which
have interviewed before a hearing OF
the case.
"The present statute does not require
any notice at all before the granting Of
temporary order, and it is entirely
within the discretion of the court to
postpone to any time the judge may
see fit the hearing upon the question Of
an injunction. The Republican plank
simply declares that notice shall al
ways be given unless an irreparable
injury will result from delay, and in
that case there shall be a speedy hear
ing provided. 1t will meet the approval
Of every right thinking man, whether
an employer or an employee"
