becoming damp. or for other reasons, might
not explode, or II IL did. might not bring
down the coal satisfactorily. and the miner
would return in the morning and find that
MS shot had not been fired or had not been
properly fired. This would make trouble
between him and the shot-firer, or the en-
ployer, and IL seems TO the operators that
the effect OF the law would be to make a
great deal of trouble between the employ
es, without resulting good. 1t would re-
qulre the operators 10 maintain a separate
force of employees who would have no duties
to perform excepting TO go, once day
into the mines for the purpose of lighting
these fuses. 1t would require at least two
men IN every mine TO go together for their
own protection one to look after the other
in case of any Unforeseen accident. In
large mines many more men would be re-
quired.
Illinois and Ohio and western Pennsyl-
vania have no such provisions of law, and,
therefore, the effect of the law would be TO
put an expense upon the operators in In
diana not borne by their competitors and
making il cost them more to mine their coal
than 1T costs in the other States with which
they compete.
PRACTICAL EFFECT.
$50 far the practical effect of such
a law in protecting the operatives from
accident or injury from explosion is con-
cerned, experience has shown that it does
not have that effect. A law similar TO this
was enacted by the State of Iowa. and
sons injured, and more accidents oc-
CURED, than before the enactment of the
law, and the opinion of operators in that
State is that the effect of the law has been
TO increase the number of accidents and
injuries, rather than TO decrease them
For these reasons ii would seem that
this proposed law would be of no benefit
to either operators or miners, and that the
effect of IL would be to increase accidents
and, at the same time, largely increase the
expense OF mining the coal, and be the
cause of many additional Disbursements
and petty strikes. Any practical person,
who stops TO consider the subject, will GER
tainly agree that the dividing of the re-
sponsib1ity between two different sets of
men would not increase the care taken by
either in doing the work, and that. IL the
work were not properly done, each would
other, and all employees of labor and all
only serve to cause trouble and disagree
mentS between employers and employees
and between employees and their fellow
employees.
IF the members of the Legislature and
the public will fully investigate this SUBJ
ject, they must inevitably come to the con-
clusion that this bill is not one that will
tend to lessen accidents, or preserve the
lives of those engaged In mining coal, but
that on the contrary IL will increase the
number of accidents. become a source of
friction among all engaged in the operation
of mining and largely increase the cost of
coal to every manufacturer and consumer
within the State of Indiana"

GERMAN CASHIERS REVENGE.

Made Director.

Berlin, March 3l.-While the board
of directors Of the Mayence Peoples
Bank WAS in session Il few DAYS ago
the cashier, Hermann, who had been
with the bank for twenty seven Years,
entered the room and told them he
had taken $4,000 of the banks
funds. The amazed directors. when
they were really convinced that this
was true and that the old employee
had suddenly gone mad, asked him
why he had robbed the bank. Her
mann rcplied;
"Ihls ls my revenge for not hav
ing been elected Il director in 1900.
M [ was promised"
The cashier added that ho was
willing to go to tho penitentiary for
life, "s he had "got nvon by innicting
life pangs on the directors aud stock
holders" by taking their money.
Tho banks officers, dropping the
high tone which thoy had at first as.
aumed toward Hermann, begged him
to restore tho money and retain their
esteem, to which Hermann SLOWLY
yielded, 80 far "s to say that if they
would give him $3.50 down and u
life pension of 5000 year he would
return the stolen money. TWAS day

give the cnshior SG, $50 and a pen
sion. Hermnnn th"n went to the
outer Office, brought in so, 900, coun-
ted out $G3, $50 and put SG,25O in
his pocket. The directors said this
was not fair, that he must return all
the money and that then he would
receive the $6,250 promised to him
Hermann, however refused and the
bank has now brought loyal proceed
ings to recover $G, 25O.

his faith matter of congratulation

He has been, and probably still Is, n

years old and has been particularly
active in Republican politics. He
was at the head of the Republican
State committee for number of
years, was a delegate to tho National
Conventions Of 1892 ahd 1900, served
six terms in the Senate of the State
of Oregon and was President Of the
Senate ut the sessions of 1880, 1891,
1895 ani 1897 aud also at the special
session Of 1898. He was recognized
as perhaps the most influential men,

though the faction with which he is
allied seems now to be in the min.
ority in Oregon Republican politics,
there is no question Of his individual
strength or Of his power to do things
out there.
