Jndlan liar bo i" Attacks Bryan's , Record Itr-grsrding Iiabor Declares . That If Elected tie WUI Give Labor a Square Deal and Not More than a square Beat . Chicago, Sept 23 A crowd that blocked most of the passageways of the 'LaSalle station greeted -William H. Taft on his arrival at Chlcaio this, afternoon. The Republican Standard bearer's smile, which had beamed through the State of Indiana during the earlier part of the day, showed no hint of fatigue as ha was escorted through the crowd to a waiting auto mobile. All along the streets on the way to ' the ' auditorium annex the laudation continued. At the hotel Mr. .Taft was closeted with Chairman Hitchcock and other campaign chief tains for some time. "Taft, the rainmaker," Is now In diana's title for the Republican pres idential .candidate, because it had not rained In the Hoocler State for two montos until Mr. Taft began to speak on George Ade's farm this afternoon. And then it rained a little. The farm was densely- populated for the occasion by Mr. Ade'a neighbors. friends snd fellow-Republicans. When Mr. Taft had concluded his speech the candidate and hla party whissed back In automobiles to the "Taft flyer" and started for Chicago. An urgent telegram from Indian Harbor, requesting a ten minutes' stop, was complied with and a large crowd turned out. GIVES BRYAN "HAIL. COLUMBIA." "Go after Bryan and rive him hall Columbia!" was the admonition from the audience; and taking the cue, Mr. Taft "went after Bryan." The labor record of his opponent, he skid, began when Bryan helped enact the Wilson and Gorman tariff bill which brought greater disaster to the laboring men or the country than had happened In half a century. "Has he fired Haskell yet?" cams a query from the crowd. A general laugh followed. Mr. Taft expressed his satisfaction at being able to speak to laboring men, "and show you that I am not, as I have been represented, possessed with horns." Hs talked of the record of ths Roosevelt administration, which he declared had placed more labor legislation on ths statute books thsn had been done in a decade previously. With this concluding sentence Mr. Taft aroused three hearty cheers for himself: "It I am elected President, as I hoDa and believe I shall be. I pur pose, and it will bs one of my pleas ant duties, to devote my time and all ths ability I have to the construction of legislation which shall give labor a square deal, and not more than a square deal."
