Ject of great controversy during the

predecessor has given much attention
to the cause of labor. with whose
struggle for better things he has
shown the sincerest sympathy. At his
instance, Congress has passed the bill |
fixing the liability of interstate car
riers to their employs for injury sus.
tanned in the course of employment.
the rule of fellow-servant
and the common law rule as to con-
.ributory negligence, and substituting
therefor the so-called rule of com.
oarative negligence. 1t has also pass
ed a law fixing the compensation of
government employees for injuries sus-
tanned in the employ of the govern
nent through the negligence of the
hyperion. 1t also passed a model child
abor law for the District of Columbia.
n previous administrations an arbitra-
inc law for the application of safety
1evices to save the lives and limbs of
employees of interstate railroads had
'een passed. Additional legislation
Of this kind was passed by the out

FEDERAL COURT
INJUNCTIONS.

Another labor question has arisen
which has awakened the most excited
discussion. That is in respect to the
power of the Federal courts to issue
injunctions in industrial disputes. AS
to that, my convictions are fixed. Take
away from the courts, if 1T could be
taken away, the power to issue in
functions in labor disputes, and 1t
would create a privileged class among
the laborers and save the lawless
among their number from most
needful remedy available to all men
for the protection of their business
against lawless invasion. The propo-
sition that business Is not a property
or pecuniary right which can be pro-
tected by equitable injunction Is utter
ly without foundation In precedent or
reason. The proposition ia usually
linked with one to make the secondary
boycott lawful. Such proposition is
