Mr.. B. r. Lacy Says That the U. s.
Supreme Court has Affirmed the Law,
in a Kansas Case.
The happiest man l saw in Raleigh
yesterday was Mr.. B. r. Lacy, cashier
of the Dime Savings Bank. 1t is well
known that Mr.~Lacy was the prime
mover in the agitation that led to the
passage of "the Fellow Servants Law"
by the last Legislature. Since its pas
sage, some of his friends have said 30.
well, you got through your bill, but it
will not hold. The United States Su-
preme court will knock it out"
Anere is no danger of that now" Mr..
Lacy, "for | have just been to the Su-
preme court library to read the decision
in 1877 u. s. Reports, page ., which is
the last volume of Reports. and it is held
in unanimous opinion of the court,
reaffirming the case in the 127th u. S.
page 205, that a State has a right to
pass law making railroad companies
responsible for injuries or death accru-
ing to an employe by the negligence IF
fellow servant. The case in the 10Th
United States. which is thus pointedly
re-affirmed sustained Il Kansas statute
in regard to fellow servants which lis like
ours. The court says that it is not dis
elimination nor class legislation to pass
an act of this kind applicable to rail
roads. alone. since employment in their
service is more hazardous than that in
factories and other employments."

DECEMBER THE FOURTH

Is The Date Set For the Argument in
the r. r. Commission Case.
The Supreme Court has set the case OF
L. G. Caldwell VS.. James w. Wilson, in
the suit to determine the validity of Gov
ernor RusselPs action, to be argued be-
fore the court ON the fourth of December.
Under the statute, it is the duty of the
clerk OF the Superior court to send up
case within twenty days after it is
filed in his office, but he is not compelled
to do so unless the appellant pays the
fees. In this case, the clerk of Iredell
Superior court, it seems, sent the case
up without exacting his fees, which is
not unusual. After its arrival in the SUI
preme court, Mr.. Burton, counsel for
Maj. Wilson, moved to have it stricken
off the docket, stating that he had not
requested the case to be sent up and
had intended to hold it back until the
next Spring term. He insisted that as
appellant he had right to control the
matter. The court held that the case
was regularly on the docket; and set it
for hearing on December 18th.
This means that the Supreme court
will probably render decision before the
new year.
