with the prices that prevailed when Mr..
Bryan made his crusade for free silver
and hurled defiance at President Cleve-

standard. At the same time Bryan de-
nounced the Republican party for Its
protectionist as well as sound money
position. Perhaps the first voter is to

TAFT's SERVICE TO LABOR.
Destroyed the Old English Law As
sumption that Union Labor In n
Conspiracy.

destroyed the Olu EnSlish LAW An
sumption that Union Labor In
Conspiracy.
(From the Emporia (Kan.) Gazette.
The simple fact is that no man has
done more to place union labor on "A
sound, square, law-abiding, respected
footing than William II. Taft by his(
decisions in labor cases. Both employ
ers and employed have acknowledged
the justice of his decisions and learned
to abide by them, and to-day there is
not an intelligent worker or fair
minded employer who would seek to
abrogate them.
Judge Taft lifted union labor from
the doubt and uncertainty as to its
rights which had before prevented and
gave it standing which it has ever
since retained. and which has proved
under his rulings, secure against all
attack The old assumption, derived
from England, that union labor is
conspiracy, and that workers could be
prevented from leaving railway or
other employment at their will, was
swept away fora'r by Judge Taft so
far as the Unite States is concerned,
and when an attempt WAS made, years
later, TO revive the principle, Judge
Taft's decision was quoted successfully
by the labor side to defeat the plea.
Mr.. Taft was and is labors' friend.
because he is absolutely just, an6
would no more permit wrong to b.
done to the poorest laborer in the lant
than he would to any one else. AND
the honest, law-abidlng workers asks
and expects no more than this.

Mr. Taft is in sense the father OF

evolved order out of their original
chaos. In his report submitted to Con-
gross. as n result of his visit to the
Philippines to be present at the opening
of their first Assembly. he made four
recommendations. First-actlon by Con-
rress admitting to the United States
Philippine products under such condi-
tions that they would not interfere
with American tobacco and sugar in
dustries: second. the removal of re-
strlctions as to acquiring mining claims
and lands: third, further legislation
authorizing the government to carry
on an agricultural bank. which is now
authorized only as private enterprise:
fourth. the repeal of the law applying
to the Islands the coastwise laws OF
the United States.
