Federated Trades Assembly
Delegates Uphold Stand Of
Minneapolis Unions.

The. Federated Trades assembly
went squarely on record last. Friday
night against the usurpation Of power
by Judge Bardwell of Minneapolis in
sentencing four labor men to Jail
without a trial by jury, and for the
violation of a judge-made law held
by labor to be unconstitutional.
I'VE regard the injunction issued
by Judge Bardwell in the district
court at Minneapolis as an unlawful
assumption of power" declares the
motion adopted by unanimous vote of
the delegates. 1--WE glory in the cour-
age and stamina shown by union la
Dor in that city by opposing. the lille
gal Injunction. =
1--WE congratulate our fellow work
ers, Messrs. Cramer, Sinton, Stevens
and Thompson, on the heroic stand
they have taken by declaring they will
go to Jail for six months rather than
pay the fine imposed upon Them.
We regard the whole affair as a
tremendous plot on the part Of the
Citizens Alliance Of Minneapolis to
crush union labor, and Judge Bard
we'll has merely prostituted the bench
to serve their purpose"
President John E. Jensen was di-
rected to send a telegram to the four
labor men congratulating them on the
part of union labor Of Duluth on their
stand.

nual convention of the National Fed
Grafton Of Federal Employees, which

the representatives of the local union.
One Of the most important fea-
lures Of the convention will be the
consideration Of the recommend {:
tons of the national president and

legislation for Redistribution with a
minimum wage Of SO a day. and a
modern employment policy for. the
entire civil service, including a civil
service court of appeals. The con-

SHERIFF REFUSES Ed
JAIL FOUR LABOR MEN

When the four labor men in Min
neapolis convicted for contempt of
court offered to present themselves
to the sheriff of Hennepin county
last Saturday, that official informed
the men that he had no commitment
papers and could not lawfully lock
them up.
The men were fined for violating
Judge Bardwell's Ubiquitous injunc-
ton and were given until Saturday
to pay or be sent to Jail for six
months They refused to pay the fine
and proposed to offer themselves for
imprisonment. A one-day strike had
been planned and every union man
in the city was to escort the con-
vlcted men to Jail. :"
1t develops that the procedure in
such cases is not like that in GRIM
lnal law cases, and it will be the duty
OF the sheriff to levy on any prop
erty that the convicted labor men
may have. In any event the next
move in the case is up to Judge
Bardwell.
