Proposed Labor Plank.

The proposed labor plank is as follows:
THE deYocratic party now. as here
tofore, declares for and reaffirms the
great Jeffersonian principle set forth in
the Declaration of Independence that all
men are endowed with certain inalenable
rights, among them being life, liberty and
the pursuit. of happiness, and that gov
eminent derives its just powers from the
consent of the governed. These eternal
principles enunciated with the formation
of our republic form the keystone to civil
liberty and freedom of all our people, yet
at no time since our Independents national
existence have these principles and safe
guards been so imperiled as at the pres
ent by the discrimination which denies
equality before the law alike to all our
people.
THE democratic party has been the
stanch defender of property and prop
erty rights. yet holds and declares that
personal liberty and human rights are
and must of necessity be entitled to
the first and highest consideration.
Recognizing the new conditions aris-
ing from our marvellous Industrial de-
velopment, our people and our nation
realize the fact that the wheels of in
dustry and commerce of our time re-
quire that new law and new concepts
of law must be enacted to conform to
modern industry and commerce and
maintain freedom in line Herewith.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1912-06-27

laid on the tariff plank, which will de-
clare for a tariff for revenue only. The
democratic House of Representatives will
be commended for it's work in the down
ward revision of the tariff schedules, and
the party will be pledged to continue its
labors in this line. The attitude of the
President will be condemned, and the
republican party charged with breach OF
faith in falling to perform its promises
of four years ago.
For Mississippi River Work.
A strong plank in support of Mississippi
river improvement is promised. and Sen
ator Vardaman of Mississippi and Rep
resentative Broussard of Louisiana have
been delegated to prepare it. Referen-
dunn and recall will be inferentially In
dorsed as progressive measures, but the
carrying out of these plans of govern
ment will be delegated to the party IN
the various states.
Planks strongly indorsing an income
tax, the direct election of senators and
primary elections are confidently ex-
pected.
Gen. Floyd King, an ex-member of Con-
gress from Louisiana, was granted an
especial hearing today in the interest OF
an international system of highways.
Gen. King is the author of the Cullom
bill. now pending in Congress. and has

Many Recommendations Heard.

The committee sat during large part
of yesterday and with the approach of
night turned over to a subcommittee OF
eleven the detailed work of preparing the
document for the consideration of the
full body.
In addition to voting to recommend
that the platform should not be presented
to the convention until after the nomina-
ton of a presidential candidate, the com
mittee began series of hearings devoted
to the presentation of pleas for platform
declarations. In addition to oral sugges-
tons, other planks were sent in and In
some instances entire platforms were
presented. Among the latter were COM
plete platform draft coming from the
New York delegation and another by
Senator Newlands Of Nevada.
Other features of the hearings included
a lively tilt between Senator Culberson
and Representative w. G. Brantley of
Georgia. Mr.. Brantley is member OF
the national employers liability commits

Representative Curley of Kentucky is
| noted as one of the most peace-loving
| statesmen in the lower house of Congress
but his temper nearly ran amuck late
yesterday afternoon on Baltimore street
between ST Paul and Charles streets, and
it's full sympathy.
| Mr.. Curley. accompanied by a lady, was
| proceeding along Baltimore street, when
| they stopped to chat with a friend
| small boy of about ten years stopped near
| them, and was gazing in q store WINDOW
when the representative observed a po.
| liceman order the urchin to move on, ae-
| companying the admonition with Vigor-
Gus stroke of his stick, landing directly
| upon the lads spine. The boy cried out
| in pain. Mr.. Curley sprang toward the
officer and would have struck him with
his big fist had he not been restrained.
What the representative said to that OF
| fcer would have made extraordinary
reading, even for the Congressional Rec
ord. when one statesman fays another.
The crowd applauded him, and the police
man looked "sheepish.''
1T is the first incident of churiishness
I have seen in Baltimore during conven-
ton week." said Mr.. Curley, as he strobe
Indignantly away 1T was brutal and
cowardly, for the poor little fellow was
doing no harm. and iimped away crying

Gompers Urges Denver Platfor

Mr. Gompers asked for the reaffirma-
ton of the Denver platform on ques-
tons affecting labor, dwelling especially
on the question Of Injunction. He re-
ferred to the recent prison sentence
against himself, John Mitchell and
Frank Morrison for the violation Of a
court Injunction.
Il don't want to speak of myself" he
said, but i do want to say of Mitchell
and Morrison that they can hold up their
heads, because they have done their
level best for the common betterment
and the general human uplift'
Mr.. Gompers said that, although orig
inally a republican, he had not acted
with that party in recent years. ''They
didn't play fair with the masses, and !
could not play with Them he said.

Extraordinarily Tilt.

The encounter between Senator Gull
berson and Mr. Brantley took place in
connection with an argument by Samuel
Gompers, president OF the American
Federation of Labor, in the interest of
a plan favorable to labor. He spoke for
the principle covered by the workman's
compensation bill, when Mr.. Culberson
raised the question as to federal juris-
dction in compensation cases. The
Texas senator and the Georgia repre-
sentative had opposing views as to the
provisions of the bill on that point until
at last the Texan asserted with marked
emphasis:
The gentleman from Georgia is en-
tirely Incorrect
THE gentleman from Georgia is en-
tirely right responded Mr.. Brantley,
who had aided il preparing the bill.

Right of Organized Effort.

1--WE. therefore, pledge the demo-
cratic party to the enactment of a law
by Congress guaranteeing to the
wage-earners. agriculturists and horti
culturists of our country the right of
organized effort to the end that such
associations or their members shall not
be regarded as illegal combinations in
restraint of trade
We pledge ourselves to the enact
ment of a law to prohibit the issuance
of injunctions in cases arising out of
labor disputes, when such injunctions
would not apply when no labor dis
putes existed; and that in no case
shall an injunction be issued when
there exists a remedy by the ordinary
process of law. and which act shall
provide that in the procedure for the
punishment of contempt Of court the
party cited for contempt shall. when
such contempt was not committed in
the presence of the court, be entitled
to trial by jury.
I'VE pledge the democratic party to
the enactment of a law by Congress, as
far as federal Jurisdiction extends, that
shall safeguard labor from the competi-
ton of the products of convict labor.
I'VE pledge the democratic party to
the enactment of a law giving relief
from the constantly growing evil of in
duced or other immigration. inimical to
the progress and welfare Of the people
of our country.
