which will prevent the terrible manning
and loss of life in the mines.
We pledge the party to the enactment

In response to labor's demands, the
Republican convention adopted the fol-
lowing alleged injunction plank:
The Republican party will uphold at all
times the authority and integrity Of the
courts, state and federal, and will ever
insist that their powers to enforce their
process and to protect life, liberty and
property shall be preserved inviolate. We
believe, however, that the rules OF
procedure in the federal courts with re-
spect to the issuance of the writ Of in
functions should be more accurately de-
fined by statute. and that no injunction.
or temporary restraining order should be
issue without notice. except where IT.
reparable injury would result from delay.
in which case a speedy hearing there
after should be granted.
At a glance. the plank Republican dec
larations on injunctions) adopted win be
seen to be an evasion of the issue. 1t is
an endorsement of the very abuse against

Friends i'm the United States"
Dear Sirs and Brothers: Accom-
panying this you will find an address of
the executive council of the American
Federation of Labor to you and all
friends or labor, justice, ana human I'D
erty. 1t recounts the situation in which
the toilers of our country today find
themselves; it recites past and present
events and the necessary action taken
to protect and advance the rights and
interests of the toiling masses of our
country. You are urgently requested
to read the accompanying address and
TO read it to the officers and members
of your organization before proceeding
further with this.
The working people of our country
are confronted by a condition unparal-
leled in the history of labor in the past
century. The courts have interpreted
the Sherman antitrust law SO as to
make all our labor organizations come
under its provisions. declaring that our
unions are illegal combinations and
conspiracies in unlawful restraint of
trade. Under that decision every man
of the great rank and file of labor may
be sued for three-fold damages and
each member prosecuted fined to the
extent of $1,000 or imprisoned for one
year, or both such fine and imprison-
ment.
We take il that il is not necessary TO
recount the abuses of the injunction
writ by which the workers are made
the special class TO be Disseminated

perience in the past year of what the
party now in power can do and intends
to do. The very feeling of outrage and
Indignation which prompted the de-
cision of the workers to use their polit-
ical power to protect themselves will
guide you as to how to cast your vote.
We urge the workers to take up this
campaign with the utmost enthusiasm
and energy. Scan every candidates
record; study his party platform. Be
not deceived by vague, unofficial, plaus-
ible assurances of friendship. Let par
tisan affiliations be cast aside in the
great struggle to preserve the rights
and the freedom, not only of the work.
ing people, but of all the people.
Already the campaign of lying and
Misrepresentation is in full swing. La
boris attitude and that of its repre-
sentatives is falsely stated Wrong
conclusions are purposely drawn in or
der to mislead labor and its friends
from the concerted action which will
tend to protect and preserve our indus
trial and civic rights.
