which case the end lhat such labor organization and their members should not be re as illegal combinations in re straint of Irade The declarations in the demo cratic platform include things the workers have demanded for many years We earnestly urge the workers and all good citizens to consider most care fully and thoughtfully the altitude of two great political parties the fundamental rights and principles embodied in labors demands Study their platforms and then vole as your conscience dictates On one hand we have a republi can congress absolutely refusing v enact tiie demands of workers for right and equitable legislation and boasting that it is willing to take consequences Following this action of congress we have convention of the republican party labors de mands and adopting a socalled in plank which is an Insult lo intelligence of every voter in the land A plank which declares for the continuance and perpetuation of the abuse of the injunction process in its arbitrary application to labor disputes tend lo protect and preserve our indus trial and civic rights Wherever n man decries and dis courages the effort of the workers lo unite and use their political power scan his will not be difficult to discover We trust that the perception of the motive behind such statements and the application of ordinary common sense on the part of the people will be sulti lo
