O'Leary's Analysis
Of G. o. p. Platform

NEW YORK, June 19.-In an an
alysis Of the industrial planks of
the Republican national platform,
John j. OLeary, Jr., New York
World correspondent, wires that
newspaper from Chicago:
con first blush, labor would seem
to have the best of the planks in
the platform dealing with industrial
conditions. 1t is very clear that the
builders sought to please and to the
extent that the superficial reader
may be impressed with the thought
that they have been very liberal
with labor, they have succeeded.
On careful reading, however, any
delusion that organized labor has
been given the honors disappears.
"The impression of important con-
cessions to labor will be based on
the failure of the committee to in
dorse the Kansas industrial court
law which Samuel Gompers and his
associates have so bitterly denounced,
and to the declaration against com
pulsory arbitration in disputes be-
tween capital and labor. The con-
cession, however, is more apparent
than real for while compulsory ar
bitration is specifically disavowed,
the principle of state intervention is
approved.
$50 also is the railroad bill against
which labor protested so vigorously,
while for public utilities, presumably
other than railroads, much the same
machinery for discouraging if not
preventing strikes is recommended.
Thus it is recommended that tribu-
mails to be established shall not ac-
cept jurisdiction over a dispute so
long as men are on strike. In eff
feet this says to labor, you may
keep your old dog "Strike" but we
are in favor of taking the edge off
its teeth.
"More than this, the plank deal
ing with strikes and lockouts is 50
phrased as to permit and approve
the use of injunctions in labor dis
putes.
an effect it voices approval of
Attorney General Palmer's action in
the miners strike. Under it Re
publican attorney general might du-
plicate Mr.. Palmer's bitterly de-
nounced injunction and if attacked
fall back upon it in defense and JUS
tification.
"The strike or lockout as a means
of settling industrial disputes in
flicts such loss and suffering upon
the community as to justify govern
ment initiative to reduce its fire.
quency and limits its consequences" "
'If that plank means anything, it
means that the sky is the limit in
attempts by law or the use of in
functions under the law to keep the
industrial peace.

THE LABOR JOURNAL
NOT GOING TO QUIT

An agent or ad man in the employ
of the Seattle Union Record has cir
culated a report tending to injure
The Labor Journal, while soliciting
advertising for the Everett page
which the Record proposes to publish
in its daily edition. The ad man
(when told by one merchant that he
was arranging for his yearly ad-
vertising and that he had allotted
The Labor journal a certain amount
of space) said that the Record had
given The Labor Journal time to
finish it's annual edition and wind
up its business"
When a member of The Journal
Board of Control confronted Mr..
Turnquist, in charge of the Records
exploit in this field, with what the
Record ad man had done, he answer
ed that perhaps the young man was
over Jealous in his work of soliciting
advertising. There is no record of
his having called on the merchants
and made any sort of explanation of
this injurious report.
The journal is an old paper, hav-
ing been published many years in
this city and is endeavoring to deal
fairly and justly with everybody.
When The Journal publishers deter
mine to wind up the business of the
paper The Journal itself will inform
the public 1t will not be neces-
sary for any other paper to do that.
There is absolutely no truth in the
Record ad solicitors statement nor
any ground for it. The Labor Jour
nal will continue in business until it's
management concludes or is COM
PEELED to quit.
