are charged with the plan TO get
together as many delegates as possible,
hll a hall with other people who will
pretend TO be delegates. and go through
the motions Of declaring against Bryan
This is done not with the hope
OF defeating him for the nomination,
but 20 injure him and the party at the
polls by making II appear that a great
proportion of even the delegates VINO
voted for Bryan really did not want
him and did not believe he could be
elected.
Labor Men On Hand.
James OConneu, vice president of the
American Federation OF Labor, is here,
and will be followed tomorrow by sam
uel Gompers, president. The entire
executive board OF the Federation win
gather here as Il did in Chicago, 20
press its demand for such anti-injunc-
ton declaration as will satisfy labor.
The Republican plank Is not an anti
injunction declaration" said Mr.. O'COn-
nell, but showed properly pro-inJunc-
ton pronouncement. We want a plank
that Will declane against issuance or
iniunctiOns in Industrial disputes, not
one that viii look TO legaliZe them. We
believe people who violate law should
be prosecuted in regular course for the
violation. We object 10 having judges
step IN and enjoin them against viola
uons and tnen summarily deal with
them for Violation or the Injunction in
stead OF for the crime against law"
The labor people are ready for theiE
fight, and the fear OF what they will

plank finally adopted IS in Democratic
hearts II leaked out today that Presi-

every means possible. They expect him
TO organize thoroughly every element
OF opposition 20 the demands OF labor.
