JEOTi. BARNITILL. B. C., THURSDAY, JULY 3. 1908 ■ 4- NO. 44 Nibrnkm Censures Action of Ropubiicon ConvooUon. INJUNCTION PLANK. Call# it a "Transparent Fraud" and . •' f* Analyzes it in Detail—Laboring Man, he hays, Has Nothing to Hope From the Party Which Has Oiosen Taft and Sherman. A dispatch fro Lrncolh. NehT. says: Following up • his expression of Saturday in criticism of the Republi can national platfttrm in generis, s William Jennings \ryan gave out Sunday a statement lb which he as sails in particular the anti-injunction plank of the Chicago declaration, characterizing is as a "transparent fraud.” The statement follows: "The anti-injunction plank of the Republican platform as Anally adopt- ‘ is a transparent fraud. It is poa- i le that the members of the com- wcre buncoed by some trust lawyer—that -is the Only charitable view that cun betaken of it. Those who advocated the plank claimed to be doing it as a concession to the wage earne s. and yet if. one will read the plank he will see that it is. in fact, an announcement that the Republican party is unalterably op posed to the tailoring man’s position. The plank i -ads as follows: _ “ ‘The Ri'publican party will up hold at all times the authority and integrity of the courts. State and fed- ersl s»d wili ever insist that their power to en orce their proc^sSM &n<T to protect life, liberty and property shall Iks preserved Inviolate. We be lieve, however, that the rules of pro cedure in federal courts twlth re spect to the issuance of a writ of injunction should tie more accurately defined by the statute; that no in junction or temporary restraining order should be issued without no tice. except where irreparable in jury would Yeault from delay, in which case a speedy hearing there after should be granted. "fCwill bo seen the plank begins with an un iecessary eulogy of the courts. Nobody Is opposed to up holding at nil times the authority and Integrity of the courts. Nobody Is ol»lection to the enforcement of their proces. es or of their exercise of their poa-rs to protect'life, liber ty and prop< rty. The plauk assumes that somclmdy is attacking the courts and that the courts are in danger of losing suppo t or of having their pow ers weaken* 1. There is no attack upon the courts and there is no thought anywhere of interfering with any legitimate function of- the court. The Republican convention puts up a man of straw and then preeds t» demolish it. This part the plank was written to give as- •ance to the people who are op posed to the tailoring man’s plea. Abd now lev us proceed to that part of the plank which was Intended as a sop to the laboring man. It says: ‘We tiellve, that the rules of proce dure in the federal court with re spect to the issuance of a whit jof Injunction should be more accurately defined by tbe statute.’ (Just what that deflniti >n shall be is not stat ed). Klatute Oopted. “ That no injunction or. tempor ary restraining order should be issued without notice except where irreparable injury should result from delay, in which case a speedy hearing thereafter should be grant ed.’ Note the words except where irreparable injury would result from delay’ and compare this, exception with the federal statute ou the Sub ject and Jou will find that court Is hot empowered to grant a'tempo rary restraining order except there appears to lie danger of irreparable injury from delay. It will be seen that the man who wrote the in junction plank copied the statute al most word- for word ’and made the exception as broad as the statute. If the convention had been frank in the statement of Its position it would have quoted The present statute and said that It was In favor of enforc ing the law just as it is. It would have said. Whereas at present a court, or Judge may grant a tempor ary restraining order,’ ‘if there ap pears to be danger of irreparable in jury from delay. 1 ‘therefore, be it resolved that we are opposed to changing it.’ “Tife men who are responsible for the language of the injunction plana may have fooled the convention but they can not fool the laboring men or tire" voters in general. The ln- \ junction plank has nqt even the "Thilue of a gold plate brick for the plating in braes as well as the inter ibr of the brick. "The plank as prepared in advan ce of the convention by Mr. Taft’s friends and given out Tuesday read m follows: "We declare for such amendments to the statutes relative to procedure In the federal courts with respect to the use of the writ - of injunction as will, on the one - hand prevent the summary issue of n such orders without proper con sideration and on the other will pre- ienre undimipulshed the power of the oonrtj to enforce their proceaa that Justice may ba doae GOVERNOR ANSEL TO ATTEND CEREMONY OF LAUNCHING.

FBI NINETY FEET. to The News says: W’hen the next battleship of Uncle Sam’s navy is launched It will be christened “South Carolina” by Miss Frederica Ansel, daughter of the goveruor of this state. The lauach- ifi*-of Jthe ship will take place on the lith of July at the Cramps' ship yard. Philadelphia. Governor Ansel has sent out let ters to bis staff askin gthem to ac company him to the launching, and he stated recently that his daughter would christen the ship— The cere monies are in charge of the builders of the:.ship, who have requested Oov. Ante! to bring his part yand parti cipate in the launching, the ceremon ies of which are simple. After the launching the party will be entertained at luncheon ,by the contractors, when two or three short speeches are to be made The United^ates battleship South Carolina Is one of the battleships au thorized by congress in the naval appropriation act of March, 31, 1906, her sister ship being the Mich igan. which was launched a few weeks ago at the New York Ship Building company's dock. The South Carolina is being built by the Craigs SUamship company, of Phila delphia.—The contract for her con struction was signed on Juty ii, 1906. Her keel was laid December la. and tee will he finally complet ed and turned over to the United StT.es a >'■< rnraent on December 21, 1909. The contract price, exclusive of armor and armament, was 540,000. She will have cost the gov ernment when completed about $7,- 000.000. The feoulh Carolina will have a displacement of 16,000 tons; a speed of 18 ff knots; coal supply,v 2,220 tons; armor belt, 12 Inches: case- men side armor, 10 to 8 Inches; barbettes and turrets, 10 to 12 inches. Armament, eight 45-callbre 12-inch guns, twenty-two 3-Inch guns. Torpedo tubes, two submerg ed 21-inch.

Her total complement, includ ing officers and crew, will be about 900 men. Ibc battleship South Carolina is of particular interest, because she is one of the first of our battleships designed after the conclusion of the Russo-Japanese war, and her design ers hgve embodied in her construc tion, the experience gathered during the naval (-iterations of that conflict. The South Carolina and her sister ship, the Michigan, wil) be the two finest ships in the United States navy, unttl the Delaware, now in course of construction, is launched and put ir to commission. —* at all times and to all parties.’_j "It will be noticed that in this plank the declaration in favor of amendments comes first ant^, the de claration in favor of preserving un- dltiftnished the power of the courts to enforce their processes comes afterwards. In the plank as adop ted by the convention the declara tion in favor of the courts comes first and the discussion of a change in the law comes afterward. Resort to Deception., "If the demand of the laboring man was unreasonable why did not the convention say so? Why did i’ resort to deception?. The Republi-’ ran party will find that an hone.-t course would have been safer thai the dlshonewt course being pursued. Secretary Taft is known as tb< father of government by injunction and his speeches in Oklahoma Iasi year gave conclusive proof of his adherence to the position taken b> him on the bench. He is still in fav or of the use of the writ of injunc tion in labor cases and he is opposed to trial by Jury. In a speech delivered in New York last winter he said in response uestions tha he law ought to be JTTsnwwtod. give a hearing before the Mil ffjnitri and even consented that the'Trea for contempt should be before a dif ferent judge from the one who grant ed the injunction, but when he came to prepare a plank for the convention he did not go so far as he went in his speech. The plank that went be fore the convention aa his plahk waa so weak that it amounted to nothing, but H was even then too strong for the convention, and the convenlon adopted a plank which not only does not grant any concessions to the laboring men but really emphasises tha position taken by large corporate employers by hurling anathema .at thoee who are suspected of a deal re to modify the law relating to in junctions. ‘This la the treatment received by the wage earner* from the na- tional convention* of the Republican petty. If thl* la the position of the petty before the election, what reason has the laboring man to hope that the party will do better afeer elec- tkm?" Locked In each other’s arms, In plain views of hundreds on shore and upon the awiiing decks of an chored yachts, Captain Otto Aubert and his wife were drowned Wednes day nffchtoff the foot of East Twenty- ninth street. New York In the slip known as “The prowners.” Five thousand spectators watched the electric lights of the police launch and thirty of the yachts,as they drag ged for the bodies. They were found finally not more than fifty feet from the barge Edgewood, which Captain Aubert commanded. Fully fifty persons have been drowned off the "Dumps.” as that part of the river front is called, In the “drowners' ” slip in the last twenty years. No tragedy has caus ed the sorrow of this sad happening. The spectators murmured in sympa thy when the bodies, still firmly held In a last embrace, were brought to the surface. It was to save the life of her help mate that Mrs. Aubert sacrificed her own. He had fallen overboard and she leaped in after him. For more- than thirty years they had navigated the rivers and Sound when their l>oat, the Edgewood, lad en to her deck-beams with grain in bulk, reached the moorings at the foot of East Twenty-ninth street. The grain was partially discharged when Mrs. Aubert rang the supper belT“«t T p. m.—— ___ After supper the grizzled captain, dnee ' a Norwegian soldier, whose universal good nature had gained for him the sobriquet of "Happy Otto.” lighted his corncob pipe and tuned his banjo. He was an expert on this instrument, and for an hour he entertained his wife. Finglly he. gang his wife's favorite song: "When are you coming home, my dear?" The stuffy little cabin had grown more stuffy, and the Captain sug gested that they get a little air on deck. He preceded her to the rail and leaned upon it. It gave way with his weight just aa his wife reached his side. Before he could make a motion to save her she was overboard. "Hannah, qh. Hannah!” he cried, as the current l»ore him away. Mrs. Aubert ran to the rail and plunged in. Daniel Sheehan and John Dunn stood on the bulkhead, after trying to get a boat they jumped overboard in their clothing and swam to where the old captain was struggling to unlock the arms of bis wife. Rut the woman, who was half strangled, only clung the tighter, and Sheehan and Dunn had to keep clear or themselves go down. . They saw the couple sink together and then rise--again. The captain weaker than before, tried again to loosen his wife's hold, but in vain. Finally, with a despairing cry, he threw his own arms about his wife, and they went down for the last time. Nearly sixty .yachts were anchored in the East River north and south of Twenty-ninth street. Every one of them had sent their tenders when they heard ’ that a seuple were drowning. The launches with elec tric lights on board aided the police launch in the search for the bodies later, whits' throngs covered the shore Hue and watched unttl the gr^pplers’of the police boat brought up the bofftbs.

Im mediately after the prisoner had been released on bond for this charge he was again arrested on a warrant issued by Magistrate Turner, of Graniteville, on another charge-HHe gave bond for his appearance before Magistrate Turner on that charge, which grew out of the same case. The charge heard by Magistrate Smoak was for bigamy. The prose cuting witness, who gives her name as Mrs. Elizabeth Meigs Stalvey, was the only witness examined.
