T- LABOR IX POLITICS.
N THE Sundar BoBton Globe four
I - prominent union labor men and
I ' a Socialist lawyer write In an
, ewer to the ' question: "What
Rlght'Has Labor to Enter Politics?"
The iflrst - of these 5 Is Mr.' Samuel
. Godipers president of the American
Federation, of Labor. He says he
cannot; understand how any one could
j think ol asking such a question, for,
'.'Surely the men who labor do nqt
,- "lose their f tight of citizenship, but
they-aJVe at their own will the
absolute right to enter the field of
;. politics fvf"preserTe." and conserve
their rights and Interests as men, as
' workers and as citizens." , '
Mr. Gompers proceeds to assert
that the supreme court has inter
preted ' the Sherman anti-trust law
,." against nroluntary . associations of
wage-earners, making labor unions
unlawful combinations, and every
' member liable to prosecution and a
heavy- penalty, and that there has
been ' "most serious usurpation of
individual liberty and human free-
. dom by the use of the writ of In
Junction." It has been, used, he de
clares, to suppress free speech and a
free press. American workers, Mr.
Gompers says, are not "playing poll
tics," but "are engaged in an ear
nest, serious, determined contest to
day "to secure the rights of the work
lng peopIe and all our people; not
in some futuret dim, distant day,
but now."
, .He scorns the accusation that there
' is any attempt to barter, pledge or
dictate to labor's yote. The Feder
ation officials did not go to the par
ity conventions as Republicans or as
i Democrats, Workligmen ' as such
are not attached to any party, and
he continues:- ,
' "The men and the movement pro-
pose to b j as independent -after this
coming election as they are today, or
" have ever been.f; The do, however,
realize ; that the-Democratio party
nnd its candidate have iriade labor's
contention their, own ' Thfs party
. stands pledged,. If placed in power
to secure labor's, rights. We would
be recreant to our trust and the duty
we owe to our fellow-workers and
. our fellow-citizens did we not sup
port the. Democratic party and can
didate to triumph in this campaign."
Mr. James Duncan of the Granite
s Cutters' International union says la
bor has a right to enter politics and
" must enter polities, "Because ihe in
fluence of the interests' is exercised
on behalf of property versus human
ity; because the cog or turn of a
wheel Is reckoned of more concern
or value than human life; because
the new commercialism places the
Importance of the worker below that
of property; because more than ever
money Is worshipped, however ac
quired, and labor's productivity is
expected to keep pa; because prod
nets are 'protected beyond reason,
and those who toil are on the 'free
list'"
Arthur H.. Watson of the Carpent
' ers', council places labor's right to
act In politics on the ground that
labor largely supports the' govern
ment, and "taxation, both customs
and Internal, bears heaviest on the
plain people. Much good for. work
Ingmen has been accomplished by la
bor taking part In politics, though
"All progressive measure In the In
terests of the plain people are fought
and lobbied against, and millions are
spent to defeat the Just and eqnit-.
able claims of labor. The laborer
has left the business of politics and
government too long already In the
hands of those who seek to exploit
blra and not benefit Mm."
. Frank B. Monaghan of the Steam
rBglneers union thinks that labor
las no rjtt to keep out of po''"0'
has done o too lotg. It' has "petl-
t!red. bfcd'aad rrsyed congress
