J. MAULmN, Sec. What Will le Say? Mr. Taft cannot bolt the Re publicani ticket, but the question is, will he not bolt the Republi can platform, especially thc plank relating to injunctions It is said that the injunctio' plank is not in the shape h< wanted- it,- and it is probabli that in his speech accepting th< nomination for president he wil have something to say regard ing the matter. Ho claims tha workingmen misunderstand h4 position, and if Ie attempts t< set himself right lie must neces. sarily repudiate that plank in the platform of his party, since it is clearly a straddle and ieans absolutely nothing for labor. If such is Mr. Taft's intention he has a difficult task before hin, in which he is bound tc fail in bettering his cause. His claim for the suffrages of work ingmen will not be judged by his personal views and promnises as now stated, but by the declar ations of the platform on which he 18 runnIng and his previous record as a federal judge. Peo ple wvill be quick to perceive that there is no difference between the so-called anti-injunction plank and injunction Judge Taft, and It is not likely that they will. now consider his be lated conversion to anti-injunc tion ideas as of much value, oven though those ideas should be In direct antagonism to his previous record and to the declaration of his party regarding Injunctions. The only way In whi~ch 4NMy, Taft could convince the country of his since-rity would be foi~hi to decline the nomination be cause of that plank'so devoid of the relief asked for y the labor lng world.
