HOW 1T WORKS.

It Was Republican Who Invited vio-
Iation of the Contract Labor Law.
Political managers complain that
they cannot secure Autographs of can
didates with the label of the Litho-
graphers' Union. Well, whose fault
is it?
Two years ago the photographers
asked for the eight hour day and were
refused. They went on strike, and
of course their labels were taken from
the struck shops. The photographers
lost the strike
Why?
Because Nathan Strauss, the repub-
lican commissioner of commerce and
labor, set aside the alien contract la
Dor law on the ground that there was
scarcity of skilled photographers, and
the employers were thus enabled to
import foreign strike breakers. Now,
with these imported "scabs" running
their shops the employing Autograph
ers are complaining because they can
not furnish the label. And Nathan

request or command any member of
the Brotherhood of Locomotive En-
gineers or the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Firemen from refusing to
work-or in other words request them
to strike. This was the entrance of
Taft upon politics: This was his first
stroke which gave him national repu-
tation. No doubt this was the rea-
son why, as Colonel Watteorson said
the other day, his candidacy is accep-
table to Wall street, while the Roose-
welt veneer which has been applied to
him has already worn off. Why should
not a man who would issue SO sweep

he be so acceptable to organized la.

Rev. Mr.. Grigsby is either willfully
ignorant or grossly deceived. Mr..
Dickson was not invited to appear be-

truth, the clerical gentleman to the
contrary notwithstanding. And Rev.
Mr.. Grigsby has no moral excuse for
making such a false statement He
could have learned the truth by in

required a little physical exertion,
would at least, have removed a false
