Coming to Phelan, Judge Taft ap-
piled the law-not his own ideas as
to the legality of the mans conduct,
but the LAW-to his actions. Had
Phelan, as the judge explained, util-
lied an opportunity when the receiver
of the railroad reduced wages and
urged peaceable strike, melted a
strike for the increase OF wages, and
won, to quote Judge Taft: The loss
to the business of the receiver would
not be ground for recovering dam
ages, and Phelan wouic. not have
been liable for contempt, even If the
strike much impeded the operation
of the road under the order of the
court. His action in giving the ad-
vice, or issuing an order based on
unsatisfactory terms of employment,
would have been entirely lawful"
The Judge stood like a rock at his
desk and conveying the sense of per-
sonal contact so strongly that each
man felt as though Judge Taft were
looking straight into his eyes, speak
ing to him individually, he said:

that If there Is any power in the army
of the United States to run those
trains, they shall be run!"
Bang! came his fist hard to the
desk. There was no more trouble.
He did the same strikers a good turn
afterwards--and at Phelan's request.
The receiver would not take any OF
the striking employees back when
the strike ended. Phi Ian went to

PROTECTION OF WAGE SCALE.

Under our present law we place a
tariff on goods made by underpaid
labor In Europe, so that these goods
cannot come into American markets
to the disadvantage of American
goods made by higher paid American
workers. We protect in this way the
American wage scale against the COM
petition of cheap foreign labor. II
the law which gives this protection is
removed and American manufacture
ers have to meet the prices of goods
made by European labor, the wage
scale Of the American workmen will
have to be cut down. Mr.. Bryan
and his party do not believe In the
principle Of the protective tariff and
want to abolish it. Hasn't American
labor all the competition 1t can stand
without adding the competition OF
underpaid foreign labor? The Re
publican law which protects the wage
scale OF American workmen will not
be abolished unless the workmen
abolish 1t themselves by voting the
Democratic ticket. Mr.. Taft prom
ises to improve the law, but to main
tain the principle; Mr.. Bryan prom
ises to destroy the law. Which do
you want?

PARKER CRAWLS FROM UNDER

Alton B. Parker, who was supposed
to have been buried so deep under
an avalanche of ballots four years
ago that he would not be heard from
again for a decade or two, has man
aged to crawl out, and is emitting
some rather doleful protests which
have attracted the attention of the
public to the fact that he Is alive.
From what can be made out Of his
cries, 1t seems that he blames Presi-
dent Roosevelt for his misfortune in
getting showed under so deeply, and
wants Bryan to defeat Taft because
Taft is a friend of Roosevelt. He
also says that he Is giving President
Roosevelt what has been coming to
him for a long time"
No one can blame Judge Parker for
feeling bad. That heap of ballots must
have lain on his chest worse than a
rarebit nightmare; but he should not
splutter out his Indignation against
Messrs. Roosevelt and Taft. The
American people are to blame for
Parker's very crushing defeat, and
he ought to direct his abuse against
them, and not against the present and
the next President, who could not
help the popular preference.

was attacked by Algerine pirates. The
conflict was desperate. The English
vessel succeeded in escaping with
eleven killed and seventeen wounded.
