THE PRESSMEN.
Next Annual Convention Will Be Held
In Omaha.

IN Omdnd.
Fred M. Youngs returned from the
pressmen's convention in Mobile on
Tuesday and is spending the week
visiting old friends. He has been kept
on the go all week and he and Mrs.
Youngs and son, Marcus. who have
been visiting their daughter, Mrs. Nc
Kenzle, will return to Portland, Ore,
Sunday evening. Mr.. Youngs modest
ly admits the part he played at the
convention in bringing peace and har-
mony to what pomised to be a very
damaging row in the union. When the
Mobile convention adjourned President
Berry had a very different organization
than he had at any time since the hour
of his election. The pressmen's union
is stronger today than at any time in
it's history, and the work of at Mobile
made it stronger. The peace and har-
mony settlements are not the fake
kind. This is proven by the talk de-
livered at Theodore F. Galoskowsky's
home after his return to St. Louis
where he gave a pleasant reception to
the visiting delegates. He declared

Will Meet Tuesday Evening and Start
Labor Day Doings.
The Central Labor Union will meet
at Bruse's Hall Tuesday evening and
the most important item of business to
come up will be the preliminary prep
arations for a celebration of Labor
Day. The Wageworker's inquiries lead
it to announce that there is. every evil
dence that the union men of Lincoln
are determined to make Labor Day,
1908, something to read about in the
years to come. The central body will
initiate the movement and then leave
it to the locals to do their best. Every
delegate is expected to be present
when President Rudy let's the gavel
fall Tuesday evening.
The central body will be unofficially
represented at Denver, and it's un-
official representative is going to make
a desperate effort to induce some of
the big labor leaders to stop OF in Lin
coin as they journey back east II the
effort is successful due notice will be
given.

BY INJUNCTION
Opposition to 1t Not An Assault Upon
tho .Iudiciarv

Opposition to It Not An Assault Upon
the judiciary.
All these efforts to make it appear
that opposition to government by in
junction is an assault upon legitimate
functions are childish. They cannot
deceive many people at all, nor any
very long. There are three principal
points involved in the issue. One re-
lates to the injunctive function. Legi-
innate injunctions are solely for the
protection of rights in property. But
they have been prevented by the courts
to thepurpose of regulating personal
conduct with reference to bargaining
for the hiring of workers. Inasmuch
as there has been no legal property
right in workers in this country since
the Thirteenth Amendment, there can
be no basis for injunctions of that
kind. Personal rights can neither be
protected nor invaded by injunction
without substituting judge-made law
for the law of the land. A second point
raised by this judicial novelty called
government by Injunction" is the
question of legislation. 1t is for the
legislature, not for the courts, to pre-
scribe what shall lbe lawful and what
not. Yet labor injunctions elaborate
ly define offenses unrecognized by the
statutes, actions that no legislature
would dare to prohibit in statutory
form, and forbid them under penalty
of punishment for contempt of court.

THAT INJUNCTION PLANK.
1t Took a Long Time to Get Out One
That Don't Fit.

OF all the planks adopted at the Chi
cago convention, none required so
much fitting and refitting as that re1at-
ing to anti-injunction. This question
had been thoroughly threshed out in
the Congress which has just been ad-
journed and it was there that the an
ti-injunction idea was coldly turned
down by the republican majority, not
withstanding it had the ardent support
of the president. The Chicago con-
vention, urged by the president, and
by the presidential nominee, finally in
serted a milk and water anti-iljunc-
ton plank in the platform. But plat
forms do not legislate and there is a
long and dusty road between the tepid
utterance of the Chicago convention
ing the long established procedure of
the federal courts. An effort to limit
the power of the courts in relation to
injunctions would lead to almost end
uralyl much excitement on the part of
capital and labor with regard to this
anti injunction plank. But in the eyes
of the republican party managers there
are matters to be attended to long be-
fore congress can even look at this
subject. A president is to be elected
The tariff is to be revised. BY the
time congress has wrestled with the
tariff question to finish, the injunc-
ton question may be made very cold
subject. 1t is notorious that planks in
platforms are not treated seriously by
politicians who have stood on them

PLEA FOR INDEPENDENCE.

Big Eastern Daily Predicts That Bryan

The third point relates to the method
and the effect of the proceedings for
violation of labor injunctions. EYi-
dence of guilt is upon affidavits pre-
pared and sworn to in the offices of the
lawyers for the party obtaining the in
junction. There is no opportunity ac-
corded the pesons posecuted to con-
as matter of right. The hearing is be-
fore a judge without jury. The pen
atty is in the discretion of the judge
viction, however, unjust, is no bar to
a criminal prosecution. Nor does the
penalty, however, harsh, prevent the
imposition of second penalty for the
same offense upon criminal convic-
ton. The question of notice of hearing
is indeed important. Injunctions with
out notice are not only prejudgments,
but in labor cases they are practically
conclusive in their effect Yet the
question of notice is comparatively a
minor one. The real questions raised
by labor injunctions are those noted

and at o'clock-it was really little

car and made the trip.
There were hundreds of visitors at
Fairview, but Mr.. Bryan Immediately
gave an audience to the printers. Not
only that, but he broke over rule just
a little bit and made short address
to the boys. He said he was doubly
glad to meet the union printers of
Lincoln, because he had sustained only
the most pleasant relations with them,
in business as well as neighborly
way, and because he appreciated the
visit as compliment. Then he invited
the VlSltOrS TO Qelp themselves TO the

selves on the lawn and had a picture
taken, Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan occupying
a central position.
Typographical Union No. 209 is
proud of the fact that it was the first
trades union to visit Mr.. Bryan in a
body, and this fact was made much of
by the daily press.

the designer and manufacturer of the
