LABOR WANTS - INJUNCTION
LEGISLATION FIRST
Quincy, Ill.,, Oct. 19.-Union labor
wants an anti-injunction law in Hi
nois more than it wants anything
else.
Union labor wants the voters to
defeat the tax amendment Nov. z, it
wants a minimum wage for teach
ers, a clean-out of evil methods in
conducting Chicago public schools.
It wants immediate postalizatiOn of
the telephone and telegraph systems;
it wants an 8-hour day for all work.
ers. But, almost as much as it wants
all Of these things put together, it
right now wants an anti-injunction
law. Such is the sentiment that pre-
walls among the delegates to the Ill.
State Fed. of Labor, in annual ses-
sion here,
Life and progress in labor unions
depends upon ability to carry on an
honest and just strike without inter
ference from the courts, believe the
delegates. In Chicago last spring
and winter the courts broke up just
strikes by injunctions. When the
tannery workers struck and had~the
companies beaten until they were
willing to grant every demand, slip
of paper signed by a judge took from
the workers all the advantages they
had gained by weeks of starvation.
The same was true in Other strikes.
Sen. Lawrence Y. Sherman was
branded a "falsifer and a coward"
in a resolution adopted by the con-
vention.
John H. Walker, president of the
state labor body, accused men on
Sen. Sherman's payroll of sending
fake kilograms from Chicago, sup
posedly from Walker himself, in an
attempt to queer" Walker with the
public.

transient merchants who recently 10
Gated in Cherokee. They advertised
that they would sell a stock Of goods
which they had assembled by paying
the freight charges after the goods
had been left on the hands of railroad
companies. 1t was charged that the
merchants stated in their advertise
ments that the goods would be sold at
low prices, owing TO the fact that the
goods had cost them only the freight
charges. Testimony was introduced
to show that the goods had not been
purchased by merely paying the
freight charges, but had been purchas-
