Income Tax.
| We favor an income tax as part of
| our revenue system, and we urge the
| submission of a constitutional amend
| ment specifically authorizing congress
to levy and collect tax upon individual
| and corporate incomes, to the end that
wealth may bear its proportionate
share of the burdens of the federal
| government.
The courts of justice are the bull
wark of our liberties, and we yield TO
| none In our purpose to maintain their
dignity. our party has given &c, to the
judges. who have added respect and
confidence in which this department
must be Jealously maintained. We re-
party to raise a false issue respecting
| the judiciary. 1t Is an unjust rehec-
tion upon the great body of our citi.
| zens to assume that they lack respect
for the courts.
1t is the function of the courts to
interpret the laws which the people
create, and II the laws appear to work
economic, social or political injustice.
1t Is our duty to change them. The
only basis upon which the integrity
swerving justice and protection of life,
personal liberty. and property. III ou-
| dicial processes may be abused, we
should guard them against abuse.
| Experience has proven the necessity
of a modification of the present law
relating to injunctions, and we reiter-
ate the pledge of our national plat
forms of 1896 and 1904 In favor OF the
measure which passed the United
states senate in 1896, but which a
Republican congress has ever since re-
in federal courts and providing for
trial by jury in cases of indirect con-
tempt
industrial disputes We deem that
should be treated with rigid impair;
not be issued In any cases In which
injunctions would not issue IL no in
dustrial dispute Were involved.
dustry makes 1t essential that there
should be no infringement of the
right OF wage earners and producers
to organize for the protection OF
conditions, to the end that such labor
organizations and their members
should not be regarded as illegal com
binations in restraint of trade.
We favor the eight-hour day on all
government works.
We pledge the Democratic party TO
the enactment OF law by congress
as far as the federal Jurisdiction ex-
tends for a general employers liabil-

We pledge the Democratic party to
the enactment of law creating a de-
partment OF labor represented separ-
ately in the presidents cabinet' Whlcn
