uside." .^id Mr. Bryan. Let me
ail your attention to the niHiked
inference i,etwe<-n the Republican
•latform and ours. The Republican
Mat form Is different especially tu not
Hitlining necessary legislation^ Our
Matfortn t.-ii- the public what we
hink of w hat ought to tv ^jwe. We'
ak*' the people Into our confidence
iud thus we show not only our faith
n the merits of our policies hut also
n Hie Intelligence of the voters.
Nov.- there are four proiiosiIlona
ot to labor foe which we stand,
•'irst. we lH-lievc that there should
>e a department of labor with a cab-
rf th*- trust law.
Second, we believe that lal»or
diouid Ih* taken out of the operaion
f Ii*' ru» law.
"Third, we believe that an iudua-
rial dispute should not be sufficient
:aus<‘ for th<* Issuance of an Injunc-
Mon.
"Fourth, we believe lu trials by
ury in case of indirect contempt.”
A man who claimed to lie a union
ron-worker here attracted th*- atten-
lon of Mr. Bryan and asked him if
it were true that he had used tin*
•xpression that workmen were a lot
>f beggars when ho was in congress:
"I speak as a representative of 1 qr-•
{anized labor," the man added. V
"No. you do hot,'A rhouted Mr.
Bryan. "My record is well enough,
known, so that no representative of-
organized labor would have to nsk
me such a question." y *-
“Did or did you not use that e*-
*>re«sion?” insisted th*‘ man.
Bryan answered: "I shall not nn-
lertakc now or*at any other time to
answer any and every statement that
may lie-made hy those who are try
ing to help the Republican party
until they get an endorsement from
Hie Republican parfU or its repre
sentatives.”
Mr. Bryan then left the cart.and
went tnfo Carnegie HaH.
When Secretary Smith of Tam
many Hall called the mass meeting
to order every seat w{is taken and
every inch of space wa^, filled. It
was an enthusiastiq, audience and
when* Chairman Hcrnian-'Ridder was
introduced the crowd applauded for
several minutes. . Mr. Ridder dwelt 1
on tariff reform.
While Congressman Sulzer waa
