The Responsibility for Gompers.

Was there ever anything more natural
and reasonable than the sudden assump-
ton by Mr. SAMUEL GoMPERs, in the
name of organized labor" Of the post
Of lawgiver to both the parties?
Extrfcate from the tangle of circum-
stances the main fact respecting his
right to dictate in the name of labor,
and set 1t up in the light Of day and
contemplate it candidly.
At the boss controlled convention at
Chicago, nominally of the Republican
party, Mr.. GoMPERs appeared iD person
to rectify the doctrinal oversights OF
Mr.. ROOSEVELT, who had 30 many other
things to think of and to attend to on that
crowded occasion. Mr.. GoMPERs pre-
pared and presented a scheme of resolu-
tions Of variegated interest, and distin-
guished by three features Of primary
Importance. These were, first, the dec
laration that new conditions require
new laws and new concepts Of law; sec
ondly, the imputation upon the judiciary
contained in the well known anti-in-
junction plank; and thirdly, resolu-
tion committing the Republican party
to the enactment Of law excepting three
classes OF citizens, wage earners,"
1agrioulturists" and "horticulturists, .
from the operation Of the general statu-
tory provisions as to combination in re-
straint of trade.
was'not the fault Of Mr. ROOSEVELT,
In all other respects the absolute master
Of the convention, that the advice Of Mr..
G0MPERs was not followed at Chicago
to It's last impudent and insolent letter.
The same Mr.. GoMPERs Is now at Dem
yer exercising the same function, and
prescribing the same doctrine. With
such slight changes in the preamble as
the substitution Of the Democratic party
for the Republican party as the historic
defender and protector OF property
rights and personal liberties, and the in
cidental replacement OF the name Of
THOMAS JEFFERSON by that Of ABRAHAM
LINCOLN, Mr.. GoMPERs is inviting the
Hon. ALTON B. PARKER and other amen
able subjects on the committee of reso-
lutions to join him and his Federation
iii tho VI new
concepts Of law, in discrediting and
assailing the courts, and in undertaking
legislation discriminatory as between
different bodies of citizens of she United
States.
At the present writing we do not know
whether Mr.. GoMPEgs is going to succeed
better at Denver than he did at Chicago.
We have no apprehension, however, that
il he fails now it will be on account of any
headstrong and obstinately prolonged
resistance on the part Of the Hon. ALTON
y. PARKER; such obstruction, for exam
pie, as GoMPERs encountered in the per-
sons OF Senator CRANE and Speaker CAM
NON three weeks ago.
What should be plainly understood by
every Democrat and every Republican
Is that whether Mr.. SAMUEL GoMPERs is
active at Chicago endeavoring to correct
Mr.. RoosEvELTs mistakes of omission,
or energetic at Denver supplementing
the creative inadequacies of Mr. BRYAN,
he is really acting under the authority
jointly conferred upon him by the Repub-
lican and the Democratic parties on
June 2, 1900.
