ests of the county combined in urg
ing the passage of Assembly bill 12l
familiarly known as the hnti-iniunc-
tion bill. at a hearing before the

ty is chairman.

more than half hour In his address
before the committee pointing out
the defects of the present laws re-
gulating injunetfons In so far as they
effect labor and telling why organ
lied labor desired the proposed legis-
lation. The present system of grant
ing injunctiOns, accounting Mr.. Morri
son, enables capital to restrain la
boring men from doing what they
have a right to do and also enables
capital to intimldate men striking
for betterment Of their conditions
or wage. Mr.. Morrison asserted that
the proposition Is a part of the
Democratic platform, endorsed by
President Wilson, and in support of
that assertion read extracts from
President Wilson's recent book
New Freedom"
The Senate galleries were filled
with laboring men and women. a
score or more of the striking girls
from the Strauss Woolen Mills of
this city, have been the cause of so
much discussion lately occupying
front row seats. In his discussion
of the bill Mr.. Morrison made refer
ence to these girls, stating thatsthey,
who have been doing picket duty
during their present strike, can be
cast into Jail. Mr.. Morrison's re-
marks were greeted with great
round of applause when they were
concluded.
Jackson Ralston, attorney for the
American Federation of Labor also
spoke in favor of the bill. He said
its provisions are copied from the
English law and that it had worked
satisfactorily in that country. Henry
Carlson and John Moffett also smoke
in favor of the passage of the bill.
James Emory, counsel for the
Manufacturers Association, former
Assemblyman Minard, representing
