BRYAN'S LABOR DAY SPEECH.
Some Of the More Telling Sentences
for the Hurried Reader.

The labor question is more moral
than an Intellectual one.
Ii the government does not assure
to the individual the enjoyment of the
result of his effort there is SO stimulus
to industry.
Lack of sympathy, one with another,
is at the root of most of the problems
of society government.
There is more recognition of the
kinship that exists between us, more
thought about the questions that con-
Germ common humanity, than at any
preceding time.
If the employe has sometimes re-
sorted to violence to enforce his
wishes, the employer has sometimes
employed his position to secure an
unfair share of the joint product.
The first thing thai is needed for a
better understanding of labor ques-
tions is the recognition of the equal
rights of all, and, second, more init
mate acquaintance.
We are linked together by bonds
which we could not break if we would,
and should not weaken if we could.
If the people perform their duties
there will be no plutocracy ruling
in the name of the dollar.
The trust is a combination of dol
lars; the labor organization is an as
sociation of human beings.
No impartial student of the subject
will deny the right of the laboring man
to exemption from the operation Of
the existing antitrust law.
The 1aboring man Is justified in his
demand that a distinction should be
drawn between the labor organization
and the industrial monopoly.
The trust deals with dead matter;
the labor organization deals with life
and with intellectual and moral
forces.
A good government is the best
legacy that parent can leave to his
children.
The Republican convention did not
deal candidly with the laorbing man
on the subject of the writ of injunc-
ton.
The Republican Congress has al
ready made a record on labor ques-
tions, and the Republican party cannot
escape from that record.
The platform was triumph for
those who have been opposing the
laboring man, and they have been
boasting of their victory.
A few large corporate employers OF
labor have kept lobby in Washing
ton and have been able to
coerce Congress into ignoring the Ia
boring mans plea.
Mr.. Taft is not an unbiased judge
where the jury system is under con-
sideration.
He has fallen into the error of as
Stunning that any improvement in the
method of court procedure is an attack
upon the authority of the court.
In cases of indirect contempt the
charge is criminal one, and the pun
ishment is by fine or Imprisonment.
In a contempt proceeding the judge
is the lawmaker and public prosecutor
as we'll as the judge.
If there is any time or place when
jury is needed it is in case of in
direct contempt.
We cannot hope to preserve 1t (the
jury system) if, for any reason or un-
der any pretext, we permit any citizen
to be denied the protection which it
furnishes.
AS the dividing is done largely by
thee aptains (of Industry, it is not
unnatural that they should appropri-
ate too large a share; neither Is it un-
natural that there should be complaint
on the part of the toilers who think
that their recompense is insufficient.
