all times to give all the information
he can about anything that relates
to the coroner's office to the news

reached at all hours when his ser
vices are needed. As it is now, the
police department is first notified
after s clock and they are put to
the trouble of notifying the coroner.
There is one thing certain that Cor

DAMAGE suits are more numerous
in our courts than is good for the
interests of this city as manufac-
turing centre. Persons hiring out
go where they can get the best
wages. That is perfectly natural
and right; the labor of an employee
represents his capital; that's what
they sell to earn their living with.
If they become injured in perform
ing their duties by their own neglect
or carelessness. they should not try
to lay the blame on their employer.
Employers know that if by any ne
elect of theirs an employee gets in
jured or killed while at work in their
factories or shops, they are liable
for damages. The firm of Hopes
n Darlington was driven out of our
city by damage suits being brought
against them.
