Labor Leaders Did Not
Incite Boycott.
OLD LAWS ARE CITED
Former Judge Praised for Loyalty

OLD LAWS ARE CITED

Reading from a speech delivered by
Judge, now President, Taft before the
bar association OF the State of New
York in 1895, in support of his argu-
ment that il was wholesome and bene-
hcial TO the country and the rights of
the people that the actions and de-
crees of the courts be subject TO just,
though severe. criticism on the part of
the public press. Alton B. Parker,
counsel for Samuel Gompers; John
Mitchell, and Frank Morrison, yester-
day Afternoon commenced his argument
before five justices OF the District Su-
preme Court in contempt proceedings
against the labor leaders.
Judge Parker contended that his eli
ents at no time disobeyed the injunc-
ton of the court, as they did not incite
or assist in the prosecution of any
boycott as the law interprets the
meaning Of the term boycott.
Right of Labor.
He said he thoroughly believed that
each man is entitled to exercise the
night to labor as he chooses, as the abil-
ty to labor is his own capital, and that
he has the right to organize as he sees
nj In order to attain those aims for
which they are striving. Judge Par
Ser cited cases where thirty-fve years
ago men were convicted in Massachu-
setts for no other crime than to leave
me employment of a railroad. He said
mat those workers were no more than
saves. The modification by the Court
OF Appeals of the injunction order is
sued by Justice Gould, according to
Judge Parker, questions the validity of
the decree.
In concluding his argument, Attorney
J. J. Darlington, of the committee of
prosecutors. said that law against an
archy should be the title TO the proceed
lngs now being heard. instead of In re
Gompers, Mitchell, and Morrison be-
cause the position taken by the respond
ents is that they will follow their own in
cllnations, despite the opinions of the
tribunals created by the Constitution to
interpret the law"
Praised for Loyalty.
Judge Parker received high praise at
the hands of Attorney Darlington. who
said he was anxious TO hear the argument
he was going to advance for his clients.
The speaker praised the loyalty Of a law
yer TO his client. but pointed .out that in
MS opinion there exists a loyalty that
transcends the Interest OF the client. and
this is the loyalty of the lawyer to the
oath he takes at the time of his admis-
Sion to the bar, the oath to support the
Constitution OF the United States.
The address of Mr.. Darlington consisted
principally of references to the evidence
against the defendants, and in closing he
declared he was willing to rest the case
on the alleged admissions of the respond
ents as contained in their own testimony.
The argument will be continued this
morning at 1850 o'clock. when Judge Par
ker will resume his argument

LENR0oT LIKES La TOILETTE.
Roosevelt Men VIII Hurt Cause in

Il see by morning newspapers that the

put ticket of Roosevelt delegates in the
field in Wisconsin," said Representative
Lenroot, of Wisconsin. yesterday. Mr..
Lenroot is in favor OF La Toilette for
first choice for President and after that
would favor Roosevelt. But he consid-
ers 1t very bad politics for the Roosevelt
managers to put a ticket of Roosevelt

The effect Of 1t will be to divide the
