Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Industrial Conspiracies
Mr. Darrow said:
I feel very grateful to you for the warmth and earnestness of your reception. It makes me feel sure that I am amongst friends. If I had to be tried again, I would not mind taking a change of venue to Portland (applause); although I think I can get along where I am without much difficulty.
The subject for tonight's talk was not chosen by me but was chosen for me. I don't know who chose it, nor just what they expected me to say, but there is not much in a name, and I suppose what I say tonight would be just about the same under any title that anybody saw fit to give.
I am told that I am going to talk about "Industrial Conspiracies." I ought to know something about them. And I wont tell you all I know tonight, but I will tell you some things that I know tonight.
The conspiracy laws, you know, are very old. As one prominent laboring man said on the witness stand down in Los Angeles a few weeks ago when they asked him if he was not under indictment and what for, he said he was under indictment for the charge they always made against working men when they hadn't done anything - conspiracy And that is the charge they alays make.
