BRYAN SAYS TAFT OUGHT
TO SPEAK FOR HIMSELF.
He Discusses the COmmendatOry
Letter to KOhrs.

BALTIMORE, Sept. IA few plain,
worth more than the eulogy that the
President The Presidents
Endorsement is of no value unless the
president Will agree to stay in Wash
ington and see that Mr.. Taft makes
good"
In these words William j. Bryan
summed up his opinion of the letter of
President Roosevelt commendatory of
Mr.. Taft. 1T was expected, of course
said Mr. Bryan, that President Roose-
welt would support Mr.. Taft. If Mr.
Taft were dead it would be interesting
to know from Mr.. Roosevelt what he
knew of Mr.. Taft's opinions and work,
but as Mr.. Taft is alive and able to
speak for himself, it is hardly neces-
sary for Mr.. Roosevelt to tell us what
Mr.. Taft will do.
Mr.. Taft has made some speeches
and promises to make more. The ones
he has already made have not thrown
any light upon the political situation,
but it is to be hoped that he will yet
conclude to define his position with
sufficient clearness to enable the quo
lie to know what he stands for. 1t is
not sufficient for the President to say
that Mr.. Taft is a friend of labor. That
is a subject upon which the laborins
man is entitled to an opinion, and Mr..
Taft's friendship is to be determined
not by the Presidents Endorsement, but
by the measures which Mr.. Taft adyo-
Gates.
"Mr. Taft believes that the labor or
g~anizations should come under the op-
Grafton of the antitrust law, thus deal
ing with the men who belong to the
labor organizations as if they We're
merchandise, for the antitrust law
deals with the monopoly of the prod
ucts of labor.
Mr.. Taft is opposed TO trial by jury
in cases of Indirect contempt, thus de-
nying TO the laboring man a safeguard
witch is guaranteed to every man tried
in a criminal court.
Mr.. Taft does not agree with the
laboring man in regard to the use of
the injunction in labor disputes. No
words of praise from the President can
change Mr.. Taft's attitude on this
question, or make that attitude more
acceptable TO the wage
THE President himself has not sue
ceeded in putting any trust magnates
in the penitentiary, and only a few OF
the trusts have been disturbed. There
are more trusts now than there were
when Mr.. Roosevelt was made Presi-
dent.
ION the tariff question Mr.. Taft has
failed to express himself with clear
ness. The Republican platform doe:
not use the word reduction II only
promises revision, and Mr.. Taft has
construed that to mean that SOM
schedules will be lowered and some
raised. but there is no intimation that
the average will be lower or higher
han 1t is now"
