Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 41, Number 1, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 11 September 1908 — Union Labor Vote. [ARTICLE]
Union Labor Vote.
Hon. William H. Buchanan Is one of the leading union men of western New York and in 1007 waa the Democratic candidate for assemblyman In Chautauqua county. Thia la what he has to say of the effort of Mr. Gompers to turn the labor vote over to Mr. Bryan: “I am a union labor man, and I want to say further that no man can carry the labor vote into the Democratic camp. I know bow union labor men feel In this city, and three-fourths of them will stand by tba RepnbllcatT party because only In that way have they the assnrance of freedom from the business disturbance that Mr. Bryan promises for at least four years If he can be elected. We workingmen can’t earn wages If statesmen are put In office to disturb business and make ♦rouble.”
