said that Mr.. Bryan has requested Judge
DUNES membership the resolutions

made to appear that irreparable injury
will result unless the writ issue imme-
diately and without notice. and in such
cases the motion to dissolve such injunc-

mined before any business is considered
in such court. In all cases where injunc-
an ample bond shall be exacted of COM

WILL NOMINATE
BRYAN AT DENVER
Ignatius J. Dunn, a Brilliant
Omaha Orator, the
Man Selected.
Especial to The Herald1

Omaha. Neb.. July 5.-Ignatius j. Dunn
has been selected by the Nebraska dele
cation to the national Democratic con-
vention at Denver to nominate William
j. Bryan for president of the United
States. Mr. Dunn is one of the four dele
gates-at-large selected by the Nebraska
convention. He is assistant city attorney
OF Omaha and has been identified with
Democratic politics in his home state for
twelve years. He is strong supporter
of Mr. Bryan, brilliant orator and an
attorney of high standing in Omaha. Dur
ing the internal dissensions which have
rent the Democratic party from time to
time he has managed to strike a happy
medium. and now represents united
party in Nebraska. Unassuming and OF a
quiet disposition. Dunn Is nevertheless
considered equal TO the occasion for
which he has been selected. He has a
well rounded, clear voice and will be able
to make himself heard in all parts of the
big auditorium.
/, Fifteen minutes is long enough. to
nominate anybody" says, Dunn. II do
not expect to take more than ten. II the
Denver convention displays any of the
characteristics of the Republican gath
ering at Chicago. | am liable to be howled
down for trying to talk that long, and
don't want to take any chances"
Mr.. Dunn Is practically unknown out
side his own state, but he has been VIC
Omaha and in Nebraska. and is known as
fighter. He is still young man. He
takes the honor OF. nominating William
J. Bryan modeStly. but his friends expect
him to put plenty of ginger into his ad-
dress.

Denver. July 5.-Conservatism has

Democratic platform today. This dis
cussion has been INDUCED in freely
among prospective members of the res
olutions committee, as well as among
leaders of the party generally. as MI
BRYAN has been quoted as being IN
harmony with the idea.
The one radical plank which seems
TO be conceded will go into the docu-
ment will be the expression on the sub
iect of injunctions as applied in labor
disputes. Those who oppose strong Ian
guage on this subject are conceding
that their influence will not be potent
to prevent the adoption of a plank
which will pledge the party to an
amendment of the law which will make
notice of the issuance of prelimi-
nary Injunction imperative; also that
provision will be made for hearing of
the case before a different Judge than

Nominated by Socialist
- Labor Party.

New York. July 5.-Candidates for pres
ident and vice president of the United
States were nominated and a platform
was adopted by the national convention
of the Socialist Labor party here today.
The ticket named is as follows:
For President-Martin r. Preston OF
Nevada.
For Vice President-Donald Munroe of
Virginia.
The nomination of Preston for presi-
dent was unanimous. The candidate was
placed in nomination by Daniel DeLeon.
who characterized the man he was nam
ing as IAN honest working man; not u
professional workingman, and added:
''The name of that man is Martin r.
Preston and he is now in Jail at Gold
field, New Preston is in Jail today for
conduct that Is honorable and which no
worlSingman should be ashamed of
DeLeon explained that Preston had been
sentenced to twenty-five years imprison-
men for shooting restaurant keeper in
Goldfield three years ago during strike
Preston. DeLeon asserted, had acted as
the protector of defenseless girls and by
so doing his action enraged restaurant
keeper named Silver Silver. Mr.. DeLeon
said was shot by Preston while threaten
ing to kill the latter.
The platform is Identical with one
adopted by the party four years ago and
declares for the substitution of the CO.
operative commonwealth for the present
state of plantless production. Industrial
war and social disorder
