struction. Bamboo structures have re-
placed the ruined buildings. and the or
iginaf plans for the entertainment of the
officers and men of the American fleet

be done. as there is no expert here to
carry out the work

Washington, D. c.
Reason for RocseveIt's Action.
The fact of the matter is" Mr.. Com
pers declares. that President Roosevelt
having made Injunction Judge Taft the
candidate of the Republican party for
president and seeing that the labor vote
winch so often has been corraIled divert
ca, ana perverted by the politicians. is
now aroused and determined To deliver
ITS own vote; that the toiIers will not
pc caJoied, deceived or brow beaten. has
become desperate and angry, and in his
anger. by the worst exhibition of dema-
Soglsm. tries to ;nstill into the emplov-
ers and business men the fear that their
property AM business are in danger of a
square deal implied by equality before
the law and human freedom are accorded
10 the workers with all other citizens IL
Is an exhibition OF impotent rage and dis
appointment and an awful descent from
the dignity of the high office of the presi-
dent of the United States. No one but
himself win be deceived as to the pIr-
pose of Mr.. Roosevelt
Inc workers and liberty-loVing Cit
liens are accursed as never before, since
1861.
- The battle cry for freedom is again
taken up. Then il was for the union and
the nation, equal rights and freedom for

Supreme Court Opinions.

Referring to dissenting opinions of jus
tice Harlan. Justice Moody and many dis
tinguished jurists and legal authorities on
the abuse of the injunction he declares
that Mr.. Roosevelt has placed me in
good company
''Of course" he says, every one knows
that the president has strongly urged
every measure which he advocated and
then accepted what his political oppon-
ents in his own party chose to give him
1t is general knowledge that he had a
more liberal platform prepared for adop-
ton by the Republican convention at
Chicago and then accepted what they
doIed out All know that the nomination
of Mr. Sherman for the vice presidency
was concocted by Senator Burrows and
Speaker Cannon as a slap in the face to
Mr.. Roosevelt; but the president. because
his injunction judge, Mr.. Taft, has been
nominated for the presidency. now not
only swallows the whole pOtpourri, but
must needs directly and indirectly attack
ME in the fight which my fellow workers
and | are making in defense of equality
before the law. of the men of labor with
all other citizens, and for the establish
ment of human freedom"
Mr.. GomperS asserts that the "PearTe
injunction bill. which Mr. Roosevelt at
tacks. has been before several congresses
without word of criticism or COM
ment from him." and scouts the sugges-
ton that MIR Mitchell and other labor
leaders are not in sympathy with him
in his advocacy of the Pearre and Wilson
Injunction bills.

Roosevelt Accused the Courts.

IF the courts have not invaded human
liberty. if they have not undertaken 20
protect corporate interests TO the detrl-
ment of the people, why did President
Roosevelt characterize Judge GrosscupS
reversal of Judge Lands S29O00,OOO fine
upon the Standard Oil trus. as a gross
miscarriage of justice "
Declaring that the verieSt tyro of a
layman in his widest dreams never sug-
geSted the abolition of the injunction pro-
cess Mr.. GOmpers insists that labor de-
the use from which it has been ruthless
ly diverted. from the profession OF prop
erty rights 10 the invasion OF personal
fl eedCm." He quotes from the presidents
message to congress and declares that
thew ''show an utter confusion of the en-
tire matter OF injunction in Mr. RooSe-
veIt's mind" He claims that the decl-
sions of the lower courts in Great Britain,
which were reversed by the higher courts
there have been accepted as me OASIS TOT
the issuance of injunctionS IN the nlteu
States. Mr.. Gompers also insists that the
provisions of the Pearre and WILSON bills,
advocated by the Federation OF LABOR.
are not as broad as comprehensive IN
scope as the British trades disputes act
..'The mere fact" continues Mr. Com
net.s that Mr. Roosevelt denounceS

stitute it: time and circumstances and
marty obligation have persuaded him TO

Presidents Attack Upon Labor.

Mr.. Gompers insists that the president
makes direcs and specific attack upon
labor" in his letter to Senator Knox
The pretense that the attack is upon
me is too thinly yelled to deceive any
one he adds. He strikes over my
shoulder at the hearts of the great rank
and file of the orxers and other liberty
loving citizens of the country So far as
am concerned, | have neither the in
clinatiOn nor the desire to bask in the
sunlight of President RCOsevelt's 'bcnevO-
lent assimilation by which he placates
some by the big stick. brow-beats others.
and by his sOphjstry hopes to fool the
masses into supporting Injunction Judge
Taft.
President Roosevelt says that Senator
Knox has a peculiar right to discuss he
principles involved in injunctiOns be
cause he. as attorney general, prosecuted
civil suit for damages to an injured
workman That Senator Knox was the
special counsel Of the Pennsylvania rail-
road and of the United States Steel cor
poration would indeed qualify him to dis
cuss the injunction abuse. but certainly
only from the viewpoint of the friends Of
corpora tons who profit by the abuse of
the injunction writ as il brings advantage
and profit to corporate greed and power
