LABOR WORLD FOR TAFT.
From tho Concord (N. II.) Monitor.
The Labor World comes out strongly
in Us ndvocacy of Mr. Tuft. It chnrac
. terlzes him a true friend of labor nnd
declares that the unfair attacks of Mr.
Gompers will have little or no effect in
nllenntlng from him the labor world.
It says: "That Secretary Taft is n true
friend of labor Is certain, and ail the
untrue, ungenerous, vicious attacks
that President G)iniers or any one else
may make on him cannot prevent him
from continuing to be the friend of the
wage worker. Organized lubor cannot
afford to have itself split up Into fac
tions on this political Issue. That Pres
ident Cionipers is wrong In forcing tlM
most ominous fight Is certain, nnd in
telligent wage workers will certainly
came to this conclusion."

Taft and Labor.
When on the bench Judge Taft said
That employees have a right to form
labor unions.
That such unions are a benefit to la
bor nnd to the public.
That thoy have the right to join with
other unions.
That the accumulation of a fund to
nld In a strike is right
That employees have a right to strike
whenever nny of the terms of their
employment are unsatisfactory.
Mr. Goinpers says Judge Taft ia op
posed to organized labor. Mr. Gom
pcrs has done n lot of talking ia bis
time and has been a very prolific writ
er, but In all he has said or in all be
has written he has never given organ
ized labor a more unqualified indorse
ment than Judge Taft gave when on
ne bench.
