Use OF INJUNCTIONS.
AZ Geneva the auditorium was packed with
voters and workingmen. all others having oeen
excluded from the main floor Mr. Taft spoke
on labor making an address somewhat slnliar
TO that delivered last night at Cooper Union
He pointed out how often injunctions were en-
ployed by labor unions TO prevent the use Of the
union label by those not entitled to it He had
this to say of the attitude of the two parties and
of Mr. Bryan:
The Republican party recognizes that tnJunc-
tions that are too broad have sometimes been
issued in labor disputes That puts labor at a
disadvantage, and therefore 1t ought 10 De dls,
couraged as much as possible. The party passed
a resolution requiring the best practice with
respect to injunctions. specifying the instances
in which injunctions shall issue without nouce
and offering an opportunity for statute which
shall make injunctlons without notice operative
only for forty-eght hours or ffty-six hours. and
then cease to be operative. The Democrats. on
the other hand. don't pay any attention to in
functions without notice. What they say is tnat
injunctiOns ought not TO issue in industrial dis
putes unless they would issue under the same
circumstances in any other dispute. Nobody
ever said that they ought TO. That is one or
those meaningless declarations. or else 1t means
This and that, | suppose is what Mr.. Gompers
would claim il means. Whether Mr. Bryan
knows what Mr.. GomperS claims II means, or
would understand IL if he did. is 10 me so vague,
because Mr.. Bryan has not answered the ques-
tions put TO him by the President on this very
subject. and because he sktps over this part OF
the platform with an agility ana cleVerness that
enable you net TO catch him In any declaration
that ia definite But what say to you is that
a. laymen you are able to see that II an lnJunc-
tiou should issue to protect property rights IL
should also issue especially TO protect business
rights.
MIR. Taft became so earnest in his remarks and
so pleased with the attention and responsive
ness of his audience that he was unwilling TO
stop when his time up but talked on for
over an Lour. thus making his train twenty min
utes late. In vain did Colonel Ransdell remind
him that his time was up. Each time he pleaded
for a few minutes more. and the request could
not be denied. AT the close Of his speech three
hearty cheers were given for him.
Auburn's handsome opera house hlled
with an audience Of probably five thousand per-
sons when Mr. Taft arrived, and he received an
enthusiastic welcome. he began his speech with
a tribute to Representative Serene f. Payne.
