TIFE MOKXiya -QKEGOyiAyTCESnAY-SJgET-g31BEK . lfOS BRYAN RAPS TUFT fJJUfJGT 0N5 Addresses Great Audience at Labor Day Celebration in Chicago. TAKES OPPONENT TO TASK Asnnn Republican' Criticism of Denver Platform Plank Charge Him With Being Avowed En emy of Jury System. CHICAGO Spt. 7. Organised labor to day paid tribute to W. J. Bryan. Al though It was Labor day. It aoon became manifest that the workers had sur rendered their privilege and made It Bnan day. Within an hour after h s arrival In the city the Democratic candi date for President, standing on the bal cony of the Auditorium Hotel, received the plaudits of thousands of toilers, as they marched by in the monster labor parade. The air was rent with cheers and the enthusiasm was unbounded. Not infrequently the marchers halted be fore the Presidential candidate's seat, doffed their caps and gave three cheers "For our next President." Many more familiarly: addressed " him as "Bill" and "William J." A mighty shout went up when he reached- out his hands and caught a clgarmaker's union badge which one of that body threw to him from the street. Delighted by Ovation. The pleasure whteh-the ovation afforded Mr Brvan was undisguised. He smiled continually, bowed and clapped his hands, always giving the women in the parade an equal share of applause. 80 Insistent for a speech was the crowd In front of the hotel that Mr. Bryan yielded. In the course of a brief address he paid a tribute to labor and said he believed In the observance of Labor day because he thought "we all ought to strive to as sist In dignifying It In every possible way the honest toll upon which our Nation properly reets." But this was only one feature of the visit' of the Democratic candidate. Mr. Bryan was conducted to Forest Park, several miles away, where he vs scheduled to deliver a Labor day address. There a multitude awaited his coming. As he reared the park the word was passed around, and he got another ovation as he came In sight. Delivers Speech Twice. Without preliminaries. President John Fltspatrlck.' of the Chicago Federation of Labor. Introduced Mr. Bryan, who. be cause of the Cheers he received, stood for several minutes at the front of the pavilion before he bfgan ' his speech on the abuse of the Injunction In labor dis putes. The speech was practically du plicated at Brands Park, an hour after ward, where the electrical workers were celebrating From the moment the Presidential can didate arrived here until he retired for the night he was In charge of the labor leaders. Every move of Mr. Bryan from the railroad station until he had entered the hotel, several blocks distant, was re corded by a moving picture machine op erated from an automobile which pre ceded the Bryan carriage. The pictures, it Is understood, will be used In the cam paign in connection with the phono graphic records of Mr. Bryan's speeches. Bryan's Speech to Labor. In part. Mr. Bryan said: Thers are to question, however. Inti mately ror.noted with the labor problem upon which the Democratic and Republican parti's do not asree. and I not only feol at llbrty to discuss these, but. under the cir cumiliiini. I have no tfeht to Isnore thenv relates to the. laeua of Injunctions, and tt'O other to contempt canes arising under Injunctions. The Republican convention did not deal candidly with the laboring man on the subject of the writ of Injunction. Secretary Taft has endeavored to amend his platform In this respect and to make some promises, which are not supported by his platform, but Us promises offer nothing jhstan!al In the way -or -reform; and are not- binding on Republican Senators and members. The Republican Congress has al ready made a record on labor questions, and the Republican party cannot escape from that record. Mr. Taffs speech may be considered as bttidlng upon him, but the convention which slected the Republican candidates indorsed the Republican platform not Mr. Taft's personal views. Th Republican platform, while pretending to pledtte some modifica tion of the law. contains an exception clause which reiterates the very language of the law Whether this exception clause was In serted by accident or design, the effect Is th same. It merely provides, in substance, that restraining orders shall not Issue with out notice except where such order can now Issue without notice. The platform was a triumph for those who have been opposing the laboring man. and they have been boast- Ins of their victory. Challenges Taft to Criticise. Th Democratic platform on this subject copies the language ahlrh labor organixa . tions submitted to the Republican and Dem ocratic conventions. Mr. Taft. In his notifi cation speech, objects to the language. He charges that th antl-lnjunctlon plank was loosely drawn," and framed for "the es pecial purpose of rendering It susceptible to on Interpretation by one set of men. and a diametrically opposite Interpretation by another." As Mr. Taft has had long ex perience on the bench, and is therefore skilled In th Interpretation of language, I ask him to give u. If he can. two opposite Interpretation of th language. That plank demands that "all parties) to all judicial proceedings shall b treated with rigid Im partiality." Surely he cannot find two In terpretations to th phrase "rigid Impar tiality" Epeaktng of Industrial disputes, the plat form declare that "Injunctions shall not b Issued in any cases In which Injunctions would not Issue if no Industrial dispute were involved " How can that language b mis construed or misinterpreted? Upon th jury question Mr. Taft clearly take Issue with us. He la thoroughly aroused by what he regards as a menus to the courts Here I his lament: "Never In th history of the country has there been such an insidious attack upon th Judicial system as the proposal to In terject a Jury trial between all orders of th court mad after full hearing and the nforcement of such orders.' This would com under the head of "Im portant." If true. But th fact la our platform specifically declares that we favor a measure "which passed th United Statea Senate In 18. and which a Republican Congress has ever since refused to enact," tc, providing for trial by Jury In cases of Indirect contempt. Mr. Taft la not an unbiased judge whers the Jury system Is under consideration. He Is not only known aa the father of gov ernment by Injunction, but he Is prejudiced against th Jury system. Every man Is un consciously Influenced by his environment, and Mr Taft'a long ervlc upon th bench bas led him to underrate th importance of the Jury system. Fropoaes "o Interference. Th Democratic platform proposes no In terference with the right of th Judge to decide th cases of direct contempt con tempt committed In the presence of the court: neither la It proposed to interfere with the right of the Judge to determine th Dunishment for Indirect contempt. Alt that Is sought Is the substitution of trial by jury for trial by judge when the violation of the court s decree must b established by evidence. wlille the laboring men have been the first to complain of this denial of the right : of trial by Jury In cases of Indlreot con I tempt. It ought not to b considered a labor (question. Th jury system Is so essential to - th administration of Jgatlc that th subject ought to appeal to all who make a atudy of the science of government. One of the great problems of today Is ta secure an equltabl distribution of th pro ceeds of toll. Th labor question, tnoreiore. a 11 pre sents Itself at this time. Is chiefly a ques tion of distribution, and the legislation asked for la legislation which will secure to ach that to which hla services entitle him. As legislation (s secured through th ballot, very on should use th ballot to obtain the legislation necessary- The Democratlo platform presents the Ideal toward which the Democratlo psrtr Is striving, namely. Justice In th distribution of rewards. BIITAX TO' FIGHT FOR OHIO AH Democratic Heavyweights to In vade Taft's State. CHICAGO. Sept T. Members of the Democratic National committee who are gathering- here for a conference tomorrow, met Informally at head quarters late today and talked of the outlook for the Democraltc cause- To morrow the whole committee will meet and talk over the campaign plans with Mr. Bryan and Mr. Kern. There will also be meetings of the advisory and finance committees. During the day Chairman Mack talked with each member of the com mittee on the situation In his state. Efforts are being made to have Mr. Bryan make a long swing through the far Western statea during October, and It Is not unlikely that he may con sent to make the tour. W. L. Finney, chairman of the Demo cratic state committee of Ohio, called at headquarters today and arranged with Mr. Mack to make a lively cam paign in Ohio. Not only will Bryan and Kern make speeches In Ohio, but the National committee will arrange speaking dates for Judge A. B. Parker. Congressman Champ Clark and other speakers of prominence. ARID .

The laet meeting of the congregation of the propaganda for the settlement of American questions was held today. Cardinals Vives Tuto, Cassetta. Gennarl. Satolli. Cavlochlonl, Segna and Martelll were present at the meeting, which waa presided over by Cardinal Gottl. The discussion, which lasted over three hours, was almost entirely on the case of the coadjutorshlp of San Fran cisco. Finally, partly because of the Irregularity with which the ticket of candidatea was formed, the congrega tion decided to ask Archbishop Kiordan to have new candidates proposed by the Irremovable rectors and archbishops In the United States. The appointment of Bishop Muldoon, of Chicago, to the post of Bishop of Rockford. 111.,- was unanimously ap proved. The congregation also advised the transfer of the seat of the Canadian Ecclesiastical Province of Victoria from Victoria to Vancouver, appointing Right Rev. Austin Dontenwlll, Bishop of New Westminster, as Archbishop of Victoria, in succession to Archbishop Orth, resigned, and appointing the Very Rev. Alexander McDonald, VicarGen eral of Antlgonish, as the new Bishop of Victoria. ARREST SALES PROMOTER T. H. Krueger, of Portland, in Cus tody at Medford. MEDFORD, Or., Sept 7. (Special.)

The Independence League primaries have af forded the Tammany Tiger a chance to hv fun with the new party, ana me indications are that Hearst will be vexed at the conduct of various district ( delegations. I-nrter a recent law the League elections came under the supervision of the state, and the primaries this week were under Mntrni of election Inspectors, for mally appointed. The bad feature of the caae. however. 11 . mil appointed the Inspectors. The Republl- n. tK, moinrltr nartv. hold their primaries in solitary dignity, another polling place is set apart ior me u crats. and ballot boxes are also provided t ,v, In,l..n.inrii.nf-B TaSTUe. Socialists, ' Socialistic Labor and Prohibition parties. all of which are eompeiiea 10 leirti imu delegates to various conventions on the regular primary days. It was Thomas Gllleran who told Mur phy how he could put a crimp In Che new political organisation. -Gilleran was . a Tammany district leader before he met Hearst, and was made a League brigadler- general or someining 01 insi mu. oim-c ua -i rillrsn rnmft to the Darting of the ways, the latter has been an In surgent, snorting denance Dy nigni aim by day. 'fna th nrnllprl Tafirue men have quit Hearst," Gillearn remarked to Mur phy, "but they are still enutiea 10 voie In the League primaries. If I can capture these districts, my delegates will indorse the Tammany Congressional, Senatorial and Assembly candidates." , Sounds Good to Murphy. This line of talk sounded good to Mur phy, and he did not hesitate to say so, whereat instructions , were Issued to the Tammany Inspectors, which could be summed up in these words: "Be kind to Gilleran and his candi dates." Murphy also talked the matter over with Bird S. Coler, Augustus H-viland and other former Hearst standbys in Brooklyn. They promised to do all they could to help, and expressed a belief that the majority of the local conventions would await Murphy's orders. Gilleran'a plan provided for an attempt kn ranttipA the TndeDendence League State convention by a fight in every county, but the Tammany ooss couiu not see . It all. " He is willing Hearst should nominate his own electors and candidates for state offices, but he will strain every nerve to help his local can didates. All the delegates Gllleran elects will wnmt on Tnrianenripnrei . Iasrue men. Hav ing been regularly chosen at official pri maries, there is no way 10 neaa mem off, good lawyers assert.

"And if Hearst don't like it, he can lump it," declares the militant Mr. Gil leran." Prefer to Vote Straight. Murphy figures that the League men will not be able to help themselves, as the average voter prefers to cast a straight ballot. Therefore he believes the Gllleran plan will help Tammany can didates in a number of close districts, and may bring about their election. Murphy is Inclined to the opinion that, if he captured the entire state conven tion of the Leaguers, the Hearst men would simply secure a place on the bal lot by petition and that the possi ble gains are entirely offset by the Inevitable expense. Next year, however, it will be a differ ent story- Murphy thinks It would be worth paying moner to capture the In dependence League city convention, and he Is already considering how best it can bs done. If Murphy carries the matter through to a finish there will be some lively times at the Independence League's 'city convention next year. An active member of the League de clares that the Murphy plan will be "foolish. Miotic politics." . "It cannot be made a success," he asserted, "and even If Murphy beat us In our primaries, where he has no right to Intrude, what would be the result? Why we would simply repudiate the ac tion of the convention, explain the mat ter to the people, and name an honest, upright ticket by petition. Then nobody would vote t.ie Murphy ticket, and he would have all his troubu and gain nothing." Of course. If Tammany carried the convention, the ' Independence League would be barred from the use of the name, emblem and war cry. But, as one third party philosopher says, there are other names. But may be Murphy Is only joking. The Third Party men hope so anyway, for they realize that under our primary laws they could easily be wiped off the politi cal map. Fire In Dwelling. Fire partially destroyed the residence of M. Matson at 767 Savler street at 9:15 .o'clock last night. The partition be tween the kitchen and the dining-room was burned down and $200 damage were made upon the furniture. The blase oc curred while members of the family were absent and was discovered by them after visiting for two hours in the next block. They returned to find the Interior of ths house a wall of flames. It Is supposed that the, fire was caused by a match which which was thrown In the wood box in the kitchen by Mr. Matson who lighted a cigar after his supper. Boys Etlll Held In Prison.

ASKS FOR TOO MUCH POWER Says Labor Men Should Not Trust All Votes to One Man Has kell and Bryan Oojecta of Severe Attack. DAVEN'PORT, Iowa, Sept. 7. William K Hearst delivered an address In this city today at a Labor Day celebration. Mr. Hearst spoke In- part, as follows: 'I intend to talk politics because we are all thinking politics at this time. I do not Intend to make a political speech or an artisan speech. 'When I first urged labor unions to go Into politics, Mr. Gompers disagreed with me and declared that labor unions ought to keep out of politics. "Now Mr. Gompers agrees with me that labor unions ought to go Into politics, but I don't agree with him on the way labor unions ought to go into politics and Inas much ae ha was wrong and I was right before, maybe he Is wrong now. and I am right now. Mr. Gompers thinks that the right way Is for all labor unions to lay their votes In his basket Ilka a lot of good, dutiful ii,it an A fnr him then to take his basket to market and peddle the con tents to the Republican Party , or the Iemocratlc party. The objections to this plan are many and they are convincing and conclusive. "First, you cannot tfford to repose so much power with any man or set of , irh.r. la d Hlsfinot daneer that the contents of the basket would be peddled mora for the Deneni oi me ownci ui u basket than for the advantage of the honest, trustful layers of the votes. There would be competition for the contents of the basket of a kind that would debauch and destroy your organization. Second, you would never be harmonious In your Ideas of how the vote should be deliv ered. You would be divided by differ ences of opinion. Tou would be dis rupted by dissensions. . "Third, you would get little or no re sult from such a system, for the men elected would be primarily Democrats or Republicans. They would be your friend before eleotlon, but would forget all about you after election. Fourth, you hava tried out the old par ties time and time again, and found them wanting every time, and It would be ab surd for you to waste your time and your opportunity. "If any one tells you that the Demo cratic party Is a new party,- with a new attitude toward working men, I stand ready to prove tha.t it is the same old Democratic party, with the same old de ceitful attitude toward working men. "When, years ago. worklngmen were in Washington, arguing for what they honestly believed to be best for them selves and their families, and their fellow citizens generally, and Mr. Bryan called them 'public beggars,' he did not show a spirit In sympathy with American labor or In harmony with American Ideas. "And when Mr. Bryan the other day appointed as treasurer of the Demo cratic campaign fund this man Has kell, a member of a secret citizens' alliance, hostile to labor In a mean and cowardly way. he did not show In that either a spirit In sympathy with American labor or In accordance with American fair play." Mr. Hearst then went Into details concerning his charges against Mr. Haskell, quoting from a resolution Mr. Hearst said was introduced by Mr. Haskell before a meeting of the Alli ance to bear out his assertions; and the incident during which Mr. Hearst said Mr. Bryan termed worklngmen, "public beggars.' and manufacturers, "robbers." Concerning the latter charge against Mr. Bryan. Mr. Hearst read affidavits, from James Campbell, of Pittsburg, and Charles Bryant, of Anderson. Ind. WEDDIM aXD VISITING CARDS. W. 6. SMITH 8 CO.
