TELL OF BRYAN SCHEME.
Bakers and Confectioners VIII Stand
bu ORGANIZED Labor.

The Journeyman Bakers and Confectioners' In
ternational Union through its official organ issued
statement yesterday to be sent to the various
national unions throughout the country. in which
II disagrees with the decision reached at a confer
of the editors of the official organs OF all
tional unions held recently to agree political
policy in coming out for Bryan. 1t says
We went to the conference only to find after a
DAYS elaboration that the whole thing Was a we'll
laid scheme of the labor bureau of the Democratic
party commit the entire movement TO Bryan
The gentlemen conducting the scheme took good
care not disclose the real intentions the be-
ginning of the conference However every one
willing to do could see where the whole shooting
match would land before the day over. What
they have done is supposed to be just as binding
upon every organized workngman as the decision
of the executive council of the American Federation
OF Labor. which was rendered not in accordance
with the wishes of the rank file but after the
two great parties had spoken, and you were asked
TO support your friends in the ranks of the en-
envy.
1t adds that II is prepared to stand by any indie
pendent political to further the interests
of organized labor.

proval of the D,ss,9oratic nominee and his
