"Reminder."-The JOURNALS aware
that such Il provision exists in the bill.
1t is aware also that no such thing as
'wilful negligence" can exist We
might have been more careful of
terms, but the hour was late when we
got the information desired. The fact,
however. that the bill contains pro-
visions making certain "wilful'' omis-
Sions of duty penal offences does not
amount to anything. Allowing the
use of the term, one of the hardest
charges to prove is ''wilfut neglect"
especially on the part of an operative.
But suppose 1t can be established every
time an injury or fatality is traceable
/ to such cause, the oery men aoho oant
this bill are those 'cho 'cOuld Memseloes iacur
the greatest liability mder it. The COM
panys plan at Hoffman is, therefore,
better than law. A watchman has to
be kept there at considerable expense
to prevent some "wiltuG" people from
tampering with the ventilation ap-
/ paratuS-some people who want to de-
stroy ventilation TO make excuse for
the enactment Of ventilation law.
"Quee" CHy."-No. One would imag-
inc, after considering that Georges
Creek, from Homecoming down, flows
into the Potomac, that the city people
who drink the water would have to be
dredged out monthly, or about as often
as some of our boys get on their SEMI
monthly spree.

of a great error last week, but the
