+ They stopped the loading and un'
loading OF ships and Ry. cars; stopped
work on buildings, the mining OF
gold. silver. copper and coal. Stopped
the manufacture OF millions OF dollars
worth of American articles which
foreigners stood ready TO pay money
for.
1t Is believed by many that one OF
the chief causes OF the panic and pres.
ent hard times was the persistent and
widespread interference with, and
stoppage OF industry brought about by
these same Labor-Socialists In driving
away business and preventing the
steady distribution of money among
the working classes. Every million
dollars worth OF Steam Pumps. Farm
Implements. Boots and Shoes, Steel.
Iron. Locomotives. Cars, Cotton Goods,
etc, etc, sent abroad. brings back a
million dollars to be distributed to the
workmen, who dig Ore and smelt Il:
moulders who cast the iron, machin-
lists. wood-workers, cotton mill en-
ployes. ETC., etc. But me Labor.So
cialists have time and again stopped
up the source OF this how OF money
and have entailed on this country mil.
lions upon millions OF dollars In losses
and. consequently. much misery upon
workpeople.
The Labor leaders have brought
strikes to force all employers to kick
out independent American workmen
and employ only Union" men. thus to
give absolute power to the leaders,
secure fees to pay their own salaries
first and, In order to keep their slaves
interested. force higher and higher
wages. Here we reach the foundation
fact again.
Now, when the Jobs the Labor-So-

you see. Look at the purpose OF all
the snti-injunction bills introduced by
the Labor-Socialists Each and every
one seeks TO tie the hands OF the peo-
pies courts. and for what purpose?

ton.
Injunctions stop mobs. intent on In
sulting. assaulting and perhaps MUIR
dering other citizens, from congregat-
ing. The Labor-Socialist raises a
loud cry because he Is commanded by
a court TO keep OF the public street
near a factory employing independent
men.
The injunction always directs the
man or men TO stay on certain streets
or refrain from doing other things.
when II Is reasonably well known
they intend TO 90 on those streets or
do those acts, to insult. or assault citi-
gems or destroy property. The peace
full citizen Is never hurt by an injunc-
ton In labor case and the courts
have a right to prevent injury TO the
interests OF any community. But In
functions DO prevent Labor-Socialists
from terrorizing people into submis-
sion to the Labor trust.
Therefore. In order to- secure sub
and power to extract from the
employer extra money. they contend
the Injunction must be done away
with.
Every public man who supports
any measure seeking TO reduce the
power OF the courts In order TO make
IL more dificult for them to protect
