Established 1873) —— WORKMEN’S COMPENSATION The theory of workmen’s compensation is abso- lutely correct. Under the old common law liability system the employer pays substantial insurance each year to protect himself from his employe. Under the workmen’s compensation plan the em- ployer pays premiums, no larger, if as large, to protect his employe from himself. In the liabil- ity scheme the employer pays his insurance and leaves it to the liability company to fight it out with the injured employe. Liability companies, being in business for profit, naturally do their ut- most to pay as little compensation as possible. Under the workmen's compensation plan the em- ployer pays insurance to insure his employe pro- tection, and the employer is just as anxious as the employe himself to see that the latter receives every penny he’s entitled tc, and a penny or two more, if possible, because the employer has paid out his good money for this very purpose and he insists upon receiving full value for every dol- lar. More friendly relations between employer and} employe; absolute certainty upon the part of the} employe whe sustains an injury in the course of| his occupation, unless such injury be due to drunk- enness or gross and criminal negligence upon his part, that he will receive a portion of his wages during the period of his incapacity; that his hos- pital and medical bills will be paid, and that, should death result, those whom he leaves behind will be “protected, makes for a sense of security and loyalty and it,promotes closer co-operation. Workmen’s compensation is not a@ new nor an untried idea. European countries recognized: its virtues long after American courts continwed to cite court of England decisions as precedent for ruling against injured employes under the fellow servant doctrine, adopted ages ago, when. only. two or three men worked together and each knew the other and: his failings, or under,the theory that any employe who accepted employment ac- cepted with it all the hazards attached to\such employment, or the idea that any agcident which might occur could: be charged to the negligence of the employe, and that the burden of proof should rest with him. } Workmen’s compensation is just and right, and it is far beyond the experimental stage. There is a question as to the advisability of permitting the state to monopolize the insurance feature. In many commonwealths this question is made op- tional with the employer, who may elect to insure with the state, or with a mutual insurance com- pany composed of employers in a like industry, or with an old-line stock insurance company or who may, upon satisfying the workmen’s compen- sation commission of his financial worth, “carry his own risk,” or undertake to set aside from his own business such a fund as will indemnify his injured employes. The Tribune, furthermore, does not like the idea of excluding farm labor from the benefits of this act. Statistics prove that in states and coun- tries which have kept careful records from 35 te 50 per cent of all the serious injuries reported are among farm laborers. In North Dakota it is safe to say that 80 per cent of all the permanent semi-total disability cases occur among farm workers. In no other industry are there so many lost fingers, chopped off hands, wrenched off arms, mangled legs and deformed backs as in agricul- ture. If we are to admit that our farm workers are human—and we must, because so many of us who are prosperous farmers today came to North Dakota as hired hands, or in such capacity accumulated our competency in other states— then we.must accord them the same humane treat- ment that we are offering members of the Inter- national Typographical unicn, among whom the percentage of risk, as compared to farm labor, is not as one to 1,000; or to our paper-hangers, or our painters, or our plasterers, or our machinists, or our brick or stone masons. Aside from struc- tural iron-workers, of whom we probably have not. one hundred in all North Dakota, there is not another class of laborers who daily and con- stantly are subjected to such risks as are the farm help. Because the farming class in this state. is so large and because the average number of employes is so small, the individual burden would not be great. This is a farmer legislature; it is, also, one which has boasted loudly of its bélief in the brotherhood of man, in equality, justice and righ Gentlemen, let us prove our words through deeds, even though our pocketbook be touched, somewhat. « «$7.50 0 | premiums jternalism offers rations. ¢. | Women’s BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE attempt to get rise out of him on the hoist joke sends him up in the air. However, a fellow can still make a wry face. The question now is, what will Billy Sunday find to do? The more we read of George the Fourth’s speeches the less do we consider the king’s Eng- lish a model. Jobless war work fund raisers might now try to raise money for the relief of the poor public utility corporations. FRATERNALISM, NOT PATERNALISM | Now that the allies have won, we should have fraternalism. And fraternalism offers to the av- erage common man all the distinction and prefer- ence and gain that his talents entitle him to. Pa- Fraternalism may not even give a man rations, but it offers him a strug- gle for justice. Fraternalism seeks no common leveling process. Fraternalism seeks no economic ; balance which will keep the slave fat and con-} tented. Fraternalism seeks not to hamstring the stronger man and make him a weakling, but would give every man all he earns and make him earn all he gets.—The Yale Review. THE VICTORY LIBERTY LOAN { The wise and patriotic and foresighted citizen is already building up a sinking fund to make it easier to do his share on the fifth Liberty loan, which has already béen offitially entitled the Vic- tory Liberty loan and is announced for April. The need of this loan will be no less great} than that of any preceding loan. The government is committed to heavy war expenditures which,; though they will be curtailed as rapidly as pos- sible, cannot cease until the greatest army Amer- ica ever mobilized is demobilized; and that can- not be for many months yet. In many respects, this loan will be the surest test of sound citizenship yet imposed. It is not difficult to induce people to subscribe to'a national loan when their sons and their cause and their country, are in peril because the victory is not yet woh. It is hard to refuse to subscribe iwhen failure to subscribe may mean defeat. Yet the obligation upon every citizen to do his full share in the‘loan’to°come is quite as great as in any previous loan; and the good citizen, the dependable citizen, the citizen the country can bank upon in peace a8 in war, is the citizen who is not Tess ready to help.his.country pay the bills of war'and end it honorably than he was to help his country. fight and win'the war. 4 It would be no less a national-disgrace to have this loan fail than it would have been to have one ofthe war-time loans result in failure. None of the war-time loans failed; and this loan will not fail. But to succeed it must have the fullest sup- port of every citizen; and the wise citizen is pre- paring now by setting apart something out of his earnings to help him do his share when the new jloan comes.—Duluth Herald. PUBLIC SCHOOL SCHOLARSHIPS The federal children’s bureau is asking citizens and communities to consider the subject of schol- arships for public school pupils. That means rais- ing money to make it possible to keep in school children who, if they are not helped, must leave school and go to work. The desirability of that is plain without argu- ment. It is better for the children to get as much schooling as they can, and it is better for the country and society also, because the more school- ing the children get the better citizens they will be, and the more productive. There is nothing new about public school schol- arships. Scotland grants them from public funds, and England is being urged to do it. In this coun- try there is no law to allow that, and the pres- ent effort is directed toward raising funds for this purpose by private subscription. | _WITH THE EDITORS | KILLDEER NATIONAL PARK. | Senator A.

The name Bismarck stands. - The house, after some good-natured :fun Tuesday, declined to change<the name of the city to Roosevelt,;as Rep, Paul. Johneon of Pembina asked’ in /House Bill 62, or to Townley. as a majority report of the state affairs committee suggested, or to Paul Johnson, in con- formity with a minority report. On motion of/Rep. Lafe ‘Twichell, who | couldn't see any real humor in toying with the sacrosanct dignity of a cap- ital city’s handle, further considera- tion of the bill was indefinitely post- | poned. RIBA MAY BE DOCKED. i On motion of Rep. Burl Carr, the house will name a commission to de- termine whether Frank Riba, seated in place of Peter Weber from Sargent county, has any right to $39.40 mile- age and to seven days’ pay as a legis- lator, in view of the fact that he was not seated until yesterday. Riba’s name was placed on the pay-roll ap- parently immediately after the elec- tions committee had decided his con-} test in his favor. The house had al- ready gone on record in the case of O. \N. Cleven of ‘Ward county, who could not be present at the opening of the session because of illness, to} the effect that a legislator could not begin drawing pay until he had quali- fied and been sworn in. ‘CAN'T PRACTICE LAW. Under Senate Bill 78, introduced Tuesday by Bowman, when a barris- ter has while attorney general of the state or assistant attorney general. | or an employe in the office of the at-; torney general engaged in the private practice of law, or rendered any le-| gal services to any person other than 1 | H | To show what these scholarships may mean to the child, the government recently made an inves- tigation. It compared the wages earned by 51, children who had quit school at 14 to go to work, and the wages of an equal number of'children who had remained in school two years longer. After three years of wage-earning in each case, the average wage of the children who stayed in school till they were 16 was two and one-third times as much as the average wage of the children who left school at 14.- Though these figures show very clearly what a little more schooling means to. the child, they leave to the imagination the task of. what it means to society; which is easy when we realize that the person who earns two and a third times as much as another person is un- doubtedly two and a third times as useful. The children’s bureau urges the country’s com- munities to take up this matter of scholarships for public school pupils, and if a community cides that it wants to do something about it, it recommends a committee representing schools, ship funds, and to hold meetings to jnterest peo- ple in the work.

BEAUTY SPECIALIST TELLS SECRET A Beauty’ ‘Specialist. Gives’ Simple Home Made Recipe. to Darken Gray Hair. Mrs. M. D. Gillespie, a well known beauty specialist of Kansas City, re- cently. gave out the following state: ment regarding gray hair: “Anyone can prepare a simple mix- ture at home, at very low cost, that will darken gray hair, and mako it soft and glossy. To a half pint of water add 1 ounce of bay rum, a small box of Barbo Compound and 1-4 ounce of glycerine. These ingredients can be bought at any, drug store at very little cost, or the!druggist will put it up for you. Apply to the hair twice a week until the desired shade is ob- tained. This will make a gray haired person look twenty years younger. This is not a dye, it does not color the most delicate scalp, is not sticky or greasy and does not ru) off.” S——————————————— quiring rating agreements to be sub- mitted to commissioner of insur- ance of rates fixed -by bureau and proceedings under appeal from order of commissioner and penalty for viola- tion thereof; exempting mutual com- panies, S, B. 77, Ward.—Authorizing the ea- tension division of the agriculturat college to cooperate with the bureau of biological survey, U.

Y., a treatment for rheumatism has beer found that hundreds of users say is a wonder, reporting cases that seem little short of miraculous. Just a few treatments even in the very worst cases seem to accomplish wondérs even after other remedies have failed entirely. It seems to neutralize the uric acid and lime salt deposits in the blood, driv- ing all the poisonous clogging waste {rom the system. Soreness, pain, stif- ness, swelling just scem to melt away and vanish. The treatment first introduced. by Dr. Delano is so good that its owner wants everybody that suffers from rheumatism or who has a friend so afflicted, to get a free Tic package from him to prove just what it will do in every case before a penny is spent. Mr. Delano says: “To prove that the Delano treatment will posi- tively overcome rheumatism, no mat- ter how severe, stubborn or, long standing the case, and.even after all other treatmonts have failed, I will, if you have never previously. used the treatment, send you a full size 75c package-freoe if you will just cut out this notice and send it with your name and address with .0c to help pay post- age and distribution expenses to me pergonaily.” , F.
