GOMPERS GALLS0N
LOCAL LABOR
UNIONS
HEAD or THE LABOR FEDORA
rioN IS SEEKING FUNDS wITt'
WHICH TO FIGHT CASE OF '!AE
LABOR LEADERS.

A call has been received By the la
}oor union organizations in Brunswick,
from Samuel Gompers, president of
the American Federation of Labor, and
from the executive committee for
funds for the defence of the appeals
in the pending Injunction proceedings
against the American Federation of
Labor.
Portions of the call read as follows:
4ou know that Samuel Gompers,
John Mitchell and Frank Morrison.
have been declared guilty of Fiolat-
ing an injunction issued by the su-
preme court of the District of Colum
bia and that Justice Wright of that
court has sentenced them to terms of
Imprisonment OF twelve, nine and six
months, respectively. Pending am APP
peal. they are out on bail The or.
iginal injunction issued ON the ap-
plication of the Bucks Stove and
Range company has been appealed to
the court of appeals Of the District
of Columbia and We have authorized
our attorneys also to take an appeal
against Justice Wrights decision.
We hold that Messrs. Gompers,
Mitchell and Morrison have not VIC
lated the terms of the injunction. but
instead have exercised their right of
free press and free speech. These
are cardinal principles guaranteed by
the constitution of our country and
by our states, and to the maintenance
and perpetuity of which we pledge
and will exrt our every effort.
We have already expended large
sums in these cases, and the plaintiff S
attorneys have not only boasted of
causing such large expenditures on
our part, but have asserted there are
more to come.
We have exceptionally able attor-
neys in Hon Alton b. Parker and
Mcssls RaIston and Siddons. who will
carry the cases 10 their logical and
final conclusion, tut ample funds must
be provided to permit this to be
done.
From the expressions of our fell
low workers and friends in all walks
Of life we find that they are in abso-
lutte accord with us in the determined
stand taken by Messrs Gompers.
Mitchell and Morrison in the asser-
ton Of their and our inalienable
rights of free press and free speech
and the determination that these
cases be pressed fer final conclusion
OF course. we viii fight for our rights
through every legitimate and consti-
tutlonal channel which our system of
legislation and law procedure permits.
- rectify the injustice Of which we
complain, and in The meantime, in
having these cases appealed and de-
'ermined, We are confident that we
are pursuing the course which com
mends itself to the men Of labor and
other friends Of human justice.
