The Secondary Boycott.

No court could possibly exercise
any more brutal, unfeeling, or des-
potic power than Mr.. Gompers claims
for himself and his followers in this
legislation, which would permit them
without lot or hindrance of any kind
tc carry on every form and degree of
the secondary boycott.
The anthracite strike commission,
as fair-minded and distinguished a
body of men as ever passed judgment
on an Industrial question, thus refers
to the secondary form of boycott, that
is, the boycott of innocent third per-
sons for refusing to take an aggres-
sive part in controversy when they
have no concern:

Does Bryan plsapprove?

Do they meet with his approval?
Does he endorse them or Toes he re.
pudate them?
Mr.. Bryan has frankly questioned
Mr.. Taft during the progress of this
campaign and very properly So asking
him to make clear his stand on public
matters on which the public were en-
titled to be enlightened in turn, with
equal franllness and with equal pro.
-priety. Mr.. Bryan should be asked to
break long continued silence and
make definite and certain his own posi-
ton in regard to a matter which con
Germs not only business men and every
decent law-abiding citizen, whether a
wage worker or not, just as much as il
concerns Mr.. Gompers and that part OF
organized labor that stands with him
There is no meet of general ties, OF
vague expressions of sympathy for la
Dor. Let Mr.. Bryan simply confine
himself to the anti-injunction plank OF
his own platform and tell us publicly
definitely and clearly whether he ac
cepts or rejects the statement of Mr.
Gompers that this plank pledges him
to the principles of the bill for which
Mr., Gompers stands; and whether. II
elected, he will endeavor to have this
proposal enacted into law This is
asked honestly, in the interest of that
large voting public Which believes sin
cerely in the promotion of every legit
/ innate right and interest of labor. bu,
which believes also that, from the
standpoint of the best interest of la

What Has Bryan to say?

Does Mr.. Bryan disagree with Mr..
Taft on these propositions?
Will he state publicly, definitely,
categorically, whether he accepts the
program outlined in this. bill, as Mr..
Gompers in his letter has assured the
public that he does?
Mr.. Bryan's party platfrom paid a
high tribute to our courts of justice.
1t stated:
We resent the attempt of the re-
publican party to raise a false issue
respecting the judiciary. 1t is an I'M
just reflection upon a great body of
our citizens to assume that they lack
respect for the courts
The great body of our citizens" to
whom this platform refers, is admit
eddy Mr.. Gompers and his followers.
Mr.. Gompers, now Mr.. Bryan's
open and avowed ally, has in the let
tiers herein quoted, attacked the fed.
eral courts in unmeasured terms of re-
proach because, by long line of de-
cision, the equity courts have refer
ed to make an outlaw of the business
man, because his right to carry on a
lawful business under the peace of the
law has been protected by the pro-
cess of Injunction, because in a word
one of the most vital and most funda
mental rights of the business world,
the right of a business man to carry
on his business, has been sustained
and not denied by the processes of
the courts of equity. This sweeping
attack of Mr.. Gompers upon the judi
ciary has been made in a frank and
open effort to secure votes for Mr.
Bryan. Are those attacks made with
Mr.. Bryan's consent?

Mr.. Taft on this proposition does so
with his eyes open and with a clear
understanding from Mr.. Taft himself
of his position. He has frankly dis
cussed this subject time and again,
with workingmen themselves, both in
this campaign and prior to his NOM
ination. He has been willing to ex-
press his position clearly and to as
sure workingmen that to protect them
in their rights he is willing to go to
the limits of what he considers JUS
tice. but that he will not go farther.
His definition of justice to labor does
not, as We understand it, include
either of the principles contained in
Mr.. Gomper's program as set forth
officially in this bill

Interference With Rinhts.

his words are:
Suppose that working men. by
some operation or proceedings In the
community Qet us say by violence Or
persuasion or picketing away from
the premises) reduces those works
to a state of utter helplessness. and
there was not wheel moving, nor
process in operation, and this company
had no help at all-that would be an
interference with his rights to do bust
ness; and for that say he has right
to be protected by injunction"
Is Mr.. Bryan, in reality, pledged to
this point of view?
Will he definitely say either in writ
Ing or in public address whether he
believes, with Mr. Gompers, that the
protection heretofore afforded by the
courts of equity 10 the right to carry
on lawful business in a lawful way
is despotic power. and that judges
who exercise that power are irrespon-
sible despots?

A Pointed Question.

Are we not entitled to know with
equal clearness exactly where Mr..
Bryan stands?
Mr.. Gompers' public statements as to
wha. his party has promised make it
imperative that Mr.. Bryan declare him

This bill, to the principle to which
he says Mr.. Bryan is pledged. declares
that the right to carry on a lawsuit
business in lawsuit way shall not be
regarded as property right or en-
titled to the protection of a court of
equity through the process of an in.
Junction; and that the rights to such
precaution, which admittedly now
exists under law, shall be taken away.

Mr.. Bryan should state publicly
whether he in fact accepts the prin-

program Of Mr. Gompers and those
who stand with him.
Mr.. Gompers announces publicly
that Mr.. Bryan's party has made this

Either Mr.. Gompers is mistaken, as
to what Mr. Bryan's party has prom

Why Doesn't He Discuss it?

Mr.. Bryan failed in his letter of ac-
ceptance to discuss this labor plank of
his party's platform. So far as l am
aware he has failed to discuss it since.
There should be such discussion as
matter of common fairness, not only
to labor, but to all citizens alike. On
question of such grave consequence
the people are entitled to know where
Mr.. Bryan stands.
Mr.. Taft has repeatedly explained
exactly where he stands in this matter
of regulating injunctions.
