the wicked editors of the News and

Anti-iniunctions.

Attorney General Wade H. Ellis o..
Ohio. who was member of the COM
mittee on resolutions of the Republican,
national convention. makes the follow
ing reply to the criticisms of the plat
form made by W. J. Bryan. The at
torney general says in part:
The charge made by MI. Bryan thu
the Republican declaration with re
spect to the use of the writ of injull-.
ton was designed to deceive the Ii;
boring man is unworthy of a can!i
date for president and the furthe'
charge that this plank merely declares
the existing law and will give no relief
in those cases in which there has beer
an abuse or discretion or the apprehen
sion Of it is unworthy of any lawyer
who has examined the question.
The anti-injunction resolution is Il
frank, clear statement of the Republic
an party'S position on a question on
which Others have been attempting to
deceive laho:. The sole basis of any
rational complaint as to the issuance
of in.junctions in labor cases has been
the use of the writ without notice and
the long delays in some instances which
have interviewed before a hearing of
the case.
"The present statute does not require
any notice at all before the granting of
temporary order, and it is entirely
within the discretion of the court to
postpone to any time the judge may
see fit the hearing upon the question OF
an injunction. The Republican plank
simply declares that notice shall al
ways be given unless an irreparable
injury will result from delay, and in
that case there shall be a speedy hear
ing provided. 1t will meet the approval
of every right thinking man. whether
an employer or an employee"
