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.

ROME, Sept. 7. 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.

Makes Agreement With Boss Murphy
to Elect Delegates Who Will In

BY LLOYD F. LONEROAN.
nrw YORK. Sent. 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

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

many nominee will be made the candi
date of the convention, and, in due time,
his name will appear in Its proper place
on the ballot, nestling close to the names
of the Hisgen electors.
"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.

Hearst Strikes Blow at Bry
an's Assistant.
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.
