IP J NO FRIEND TO WAGE-EARNER, Jr Bryan Assails tho Republican Anti1 1 Injunctions Plank?Calls it a I "Transparent Fraud" and Analyzes it in Detail. I "Lincoln, Nob., June 21.?Following M up his expression of yesterday in critic ieism of the Republican national plnt| form in general, Win. J. Bryan gave fl tonight a statement in which he ns\ sails in particular the anti-injunction I plank of the Chicago declaration, I characterizing it as "a transparent M fraud." The statement follows: | "The anti-injunction plank of the j Republican platform as finally adopti ed is a transparent fraud. It is posIb sible that the members of the com/ mittec were buncoed by some trust f lawyers?that is the only charitable | view that can be taken of it. Those \ who advocated (lie plank claimed to i be doing it as a concession to the \ wage earners, and yet if one will read I the plank he will see that it is in fact I nn announcement that the Republican I party is unalterably opposed to the B laboring man's position. The j lank g reads as follows: S " 'The Republican party will uphold at all times the authority and in( 8 tegrity of the Courts, State and FedP eral, and ever insist that their power ' J5> to enforce their processes and protect K: life, liberty and property shall be $ preserved inviolate. We believe, i F however, that the rules of procedure X ih Federal Courts with respect, to the Ik issuance of a writ of injunction H should bo more accurately defined by S the statute; that no injunction or tem? porary or restraining orders should be issued without notice except where irreparable injury would result from ! ||> tlie delay, in which case a speedy till hearing thereafter should bo granted.' E "It will be seen that (lie planks life begin with an unnecessary eulogy of fcHli *'10 courts. Nobody is opposed to upholding at all times the authority and integrity of the courts. Nobody is objecting to the enforcement of the processes of the courts or to their exer?e of their powers to protect life, .ntv and property. The plank as"s that somebody is attacking the <, and that tho courts are in danlosing support or of having wers weakened. There is no m the courts and there is no vwhere of interfering with to function of the courts. m convention puts up lid then proceeds to s part of the plank .o?' give assurance to the people, who are opposed to the laboring man's plea. And let us proceed j to that part of the plank, which was intended as a sop to the laboring man. It says: 'We believe, however, that . flie rules of procedure in the Federal court with respect to the issuance of a writ of injunction should be more accurately defined by the statute.' (Just what that definition shall be is p. is not stated.) " 'That no injunction or temporary restraining order should be issued,' notice, 'except where irreparable injury would result, from delay, in which case a speedy hearing thereafter should bo granted.' Note the word 'except where irreparable injury would result from delay' and coinpare this exception with the Federal statute on tho subject and you will find that under the law as it now exists the court is not empowered to grant a temporary restraining order except where there appears t:> be danger of irreparable injury from delay. It will be sen that the man who is. It would have said that as the s*'i 1 \ite almost word lor word and n'.nde the exception a? hiond as was II i statute. If the correction had 'eon frame in the statoir-ent of its p.^iHon it would have quoted the prcv?eiit stat ite and said iit was i : favor of enforcing the Jaw just as it it. It 'Vf i'ld have said that as the present court or judge may grant a temporary restraining order 'if there appears to ho danger of irreparable injury fr?<m delav,' therefore, !o resolved, we are opposed to ehanc\ ing it. "Th-j men who are responsible for the language of the injunet1'. n plank may have fooled the c^ineniion, but can they fool tho laboring-men or the voters in general? The injunction plank has not even the value of a gold-plate brick, for (lie plating is brass as well as the interior of the brick. A "The plank as prepared in advance of the convention by Mr. Taft's friends and given out on Tuesday read as follows: 'We declare for such amendments of tho statutes of procedure in thOjFcderal courts with respect to the uso of the writ of injune -j. ^t ion as will on the one hand prevent tho summary issue of such orders |^^^^^witli(>ut pr(>per consideration, and on other will preserve undiminished ^^HiW'he power, of the court to enforce ' JiSii process to the end that justice H MIMNAUGt Hit Talk of the To Hitch up and come quick.

In the plank ^ ^ ^ ^ >8 as adopted by the convention the declaration in favor of preservation of the courts comes first and the dis- ,/rniK Cr.n< cussion of a change in the law comes I U' y U U I r aln afterwards.
