COMMISSION SKIPS
LOGGING RAILROADS
House judiciary Subcommittee
Discovers Another Impor-
tant Omission

What is claimed to be a logging rail-
road woodchuck has been found in the
statute revision code.
A provision of the new code appar-
emily confines the operation of the fell
low servant law to railroads only open
to public travel and use" This would
exempt the lumber railroads, the spurs
built for logging purpose, and transfer
and belt line roads at terminal points.
Walter T. Lemon, chairman4 of the
house judiciary subcommittee to which
had been assigned the chapters of the
new code relating to railroad laws, yes
terday called the attention of fellow
attorneys to "a change in the law relat-
ing to the fellow servant law as ap-
piled to railroads.
The old law applied the operation of
the fellow servant law to all railroads
in the state, except new roads in course
of construction. The fellow servant
law permits recovery at law for injuries
sustained through the negligence of a
fellow servant, when it can be shown
that the accident was through no con-
tributory negligence of the party dam
aged. In Minnesota the law applies
only to railroad companies, because of
the hazardous nature of the employ
ment of railroad employees.
The logging railroads, of which there
are a number in Northern Minnesota,
are built and operated for private pur-
poses. Public travel is not sought, and
in some cases not permitted. The new
law proposed by the code will exempt
them from the operation of the fellow
servant law, and if enacted. will save
them thousands of dollars in suits for
personal injuries sustained by their em-
pIoyes.
work industriously on the chapters re-
lating to railroads, and has held sew
eral conferences with the state rail-
way and warehouse commission and T.
]. Knox, the member of the commits
sion who wrote the railroad chapters.
A number of changes in the code will
be suggested to the legislature as the
result of the conferences.

Gov. johnson Receives Visit
From Smelling Officers

Gov. John A. Johnson yesterday re-
ceived the officers of the Twenty
eighth United States infantry and the
officers of the battery battalion at
Fort Smelling. The officers, twenty
five in number, in dress uniform, called
in body at the state capitol, were
presented to the governor and spent
a pleasant half hour in his company
Col. O. J.. Sweet, commanding the
infantry regiment, and Maj. S. e. AL
len, in command of the two batteries
constituting the artillery battalion,
presented the officers of their COM
mands to the governor. Gov. Johnson
was assisted in receiving by Col. Will
liam Gerlach, u. s. A., retired, In
spector general of the national guard,
and by Gen. F. B. Wood, the new adj
jutant general of the state. The af-i
fair was devoid of all formality. The
governor welcomed the soldiers, just
returned from long service in the Phil
ippines, to the state and to the new
capitol. He promised to return the
call, but said that for some time his
Office had been in state of siege, not
from hostile enemy but from friends
who desired to do the state some serv-
ice. There were indications that the
siege would shortly be raised and he
would be able to visit the fort and re-
turn the compliment contained in the
call from the soldiers.

FIGHTS WITH FROST
Bishop Rowe TeIIs~of Trials in
Frozen Alaska

Beginning with a careful description
of the physical geography of the coun-
try, Rt. Rev. p. T. Rowe, D. D., bishop
of Alaska, speaking at the Church of
st. John the Evangelist. gave stirring
account Of the work being done by his
church in the frozen north, where the
Thermometer hovers between Is and so
degrees below zero.
The portrayal of the strenuous work
of shepherding the souls and caring
for the bodily comfort of the miners,
Esquimaux and Indians, making UP the
people of his diocese, was graphic
The bishop told of trips made on foot
at the head of his struggling dog train,
for which he had to break way
through the frozen snow crust; of days
and weeks of hard heartbreaking work
done upon insufficient rations; and he
described the training that must be
gone through before man is in condi-
ton to face the rigors of the northern
winter. He pictures the vast resources
of a land purchased for $7,500.000 from
which In one year returns amounting to
$2S,000,000 had geen garnered.
Bishop Rowe spoke in the guild hall
of the church to an attentive audience
and after his address was the center of
a throng of admiring friends, old and
new.
Rev. Theodore Sedgwick, pastor of
the church, introduced the bishop TO
his audience and at the close of his
talk refreshments were served and an
informal reception held.

ADDS TO LIBRARY
Historical Society Receives Big
Consignment of Books {

A large consignment of books has
been received by Lieut.. David u.

state historical society. The con-
s1gnment consists of books and pam
phlets collected by the Minnesota
worlds fair commission at st. Louis
last summer, and if it is all as good as
the top layer appears to be, will be of
great value for reference work. The,
books have not been unpacked yet, as
the shippers wish to see that ali Of
them arrived in good condition and
have not had time to investigate.
One of the books is large paper
covered volume of 200 pages, "a
inches wide by 36 inches long, de-
scribing the grapes of Portugal which
were exhibited at the fair by the Por-
tuguese commission. 1t is profusely
illustrated with beautiful colored
plates 1S inches wide by 80 inches
long, which show the grapes In all
their natural beauty, while the text
describes the grapes in detail, giving
their characteristics and the best
methods of cultivating them. It is
thought to be the only book of its kind

LOAN SHARKS SEND
LOBBY TO LEGISLATURE
Salary erabbers Making Desperate
Effort to Defeat Mannfx Bill

The only lobby SO far in evidence
about the legislature is the lobby or
.ganized to defeat Representative j. T.
Mannix's measure directed against the
so-called loan sharks" of the larger
cities of the state. The Mannix bill
aims to declare illegal assignments Of
wages upon which. it is said, loans are
procured by poor people from the SAL
sary loan agents at exorbitant rates of
interest.
Salary loan agents of ST. Paul and
Minneapolis are determined to defeat
the bill and are industriously circulat-
ing among members OF the legislature
and urging opposition to the bill. Mr..
Mannix admits that the lobby may
succeed in defeating his bill, but he is
bringing pressure to bear on members
in producing letters from large en-
ployers of labor, who say that the sys-
tenn is curse TO employees dependent
upon their weekly salaries for a living.
