HITS
At DECISION
BY JUDGE GOLF

st. Louis, Nov. 15.-Severe criticism
of the courts and the lower house Of
congress was made by Samuel Com
pers, president of the American Fed
Grafton Of Labor, in his report to the
annual convention of the federation
In session here.
Judge Golf of the New York city su
preme court was named as having put
before the American people "a move
and undoubtedly fallacious principle
in an injunction in the garment work
ers' strike. :
After calling attention to the growth
of the federation in this country, Can
ada and elsewhere and denying that
trade unionism is narrow, President
Gompers takes up Justice Goff's opeE
shop decision.
while this judges action in this
case was not taken seriously either by
the press OF by the public" Mr.. Com
pers said, sit served to show the ne
cessity that exists for a state restrain
ing the abuse OF power by judges
federal and state. particularly In the
issuance of the in~junctions by which
the liberties of the citizens when these
citizens are wageworkers are outra'
geously invaded and denied.
TT is not amiss here to call atten.
tlon to the fact that If workmen may
be denied by injunction OF by any
other process the right to leave their
employment either singiy or in associ-
alton In a desire to secure a union
shop, If they may be restrained by an
injunction from striking in sympathy
with their fellow workers, II they may
be enioined from striking for any rea.
o whatever, the difference between
the so called free workmen and the
workmen who must yield obedience to
their masters, slaves, has disappeared.
The only reason for slave holding is to
compel men to work"
The annual report of Secretary Nor
rison says that there were 1,561,151
members of the federation at the close
of the fiscal year Sept. 80, 1910, a gain
of 5000 " last year, but 100, 600
smaller than the biggest year. 1904.
The federation has a reserve fund of
$1S3, 600. There were SIS strikes in
the last year, of which 40 were won,
259 are pending, "a were compromised.

A white-haired, white whiskered

summoned to court by Constable

what he was wanted for. He asked
to have the charge read again and
then wanted to have 1t explained,
but his plea was insisted upon and
he said that he was not guilty.
His own bail for $500 was taken
and he sat down to ponder over it.
No date was set for trial. the State

Mr.. Smith has been a justice of

Zeller's cabbage patch. zeller is one
of his neighbors at South Plainfeld.
Last month zeller came to him and
complained that w. Locke's children
had been running about his cabbage
patch and had done considerable
damage. He wanted the children ar
rested.
So the Justice called them into his
office. Word was sent to their faith
err, who works In the Pond machine
shop at Plainfield and he soon ar
rived in an automobile and wanted
to take the children away. The
Justice stopped him. Then Locke,
according to the Justice. asked how
much damage had been done and
Zeller replied that s. would settle
with him for the damage. Locke
paid the S. to the Justice, who at
once handed 1T to Zeller, he says.
And that ended the incident, he
thought. But Locke went before the
grand jury and secured the indict-

BR0DHEAD IN

Plainneid, Nov. 15:-Assembly

Judgment, t~rrevocably committed to
the election of James Il. MARITIME tc
the United States senate. To ignore
him would be a violation Of party
pledges in spirit IL not in fact.
For years our party has been con
tending for the principle of popular
government, and leading Democrats
all yer the country have declared
themselves In favor of the election of
United States senators by the people.
In many States it has been incorpor-
ated in the party platforms, and In
New Jersey the Democratic party
platform-declares unequivocally for
this reform. = AS this could not be
accomplished without an amendment
to the United States Constitution,
the Democratic minority In 1907 in
troduced a bill in the legislature to
effectuate this object as nearly as
practicable.
This a the law under which
Messrs. Murphy, Stokes, Fowler,
MARITIME and MeDermit announced
their candidates.. There was a fair
field offered to any aspirant for this
honor to come forward and present
his name for popular approval. To
say that the vote was not conclusive
Is beside the question, because Mar
tine became the regularly nominated
and followed out the for
mula of the law In letter and spirit.
To say that the members of the legis-
lature r not bound to follow the
popular choice is also evasion of the
involved. 1t must be ap-
parent to any one that members Of
the electoral college are not bound
to vote for their parties choice for

Ignoring the candidate nominated?
