Last Game with Canyon To-day.

The last game between Canyon
and Amarillo which local fans will
have an opportunity to see until late
in the season, is being played this
afternoon at the park. The Cow Boys
have their visiting clothes on and
with this game will bid farewell to
Amarillo fans till after the long east
ern trip which they begin tomorrow.
The Canyon team will play It's strong
est lineup this afternoon.
For this afternoon the hole made
by the departure OF Weller, the In
dian, will be filled under an arrange
ment OF men by Tom Gallaher. Gal
laher is a veteran player and as first
baseman at the close OF the season
last year with Amarillo, he was a
star member OF the fastest aggrega-
ton Amarillo ever had. Unfortu-
nately for the baseball side OF the
question he has too valuable a posi-
ton with the Peoos Valley lines
now to devote much attention to the
game and goes in this afternoon with
very little preparation.

Clude Discussions and
Abundant Entertainment
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

All the program for the gathering
Of the state association OF mayors In
Amarillo in July has not yet been
completed but at the meeting OF the
executive committee in Fort Worth
last week the main plan was settled
upon and agreements we're made
which work toward the success
OF the convention.
As will readily be seen from the pro
gram mapped out, the mayors con-
vention is not merely for the pur-
pose OF supplying a junketlng trip for
the city officials. City governments
OF Texas are just beginning the era
Of their greatest development and
each is anxious to learn the others
experience in vexing problems that
are more or Jesse present in all the
municipalities OF the state. This
fact will attract to the gathering
besides the mayors many city alder
men and some other officers who are
interested in special phases of civic
development.
Amarillo is ION the map" how
ever, and to many OF the association
this is an opportunity for finding out
what the Panhandle Is. Many may
ors are planning to bring their fami-
lies here to enjoy Panhandle sum-
mer weather. The program also
makes provision for this side of the
convention. Details OF the enter
tainment will be worked out later
by the Amarillo committee.
The program as arranged by the
executive committee at Fort Worth
is as follows:
All Mayors, Aldermen and their
families will meet in Fort Worth
Thursday, July 4, in time to take a
Mayors train for Amarillo at 9:15 p.
m, arriving at Amarillo Friday at IL

PERJURY is CHARGED.
Raglan Swcars Attorney Did Not See
Him Play Cards.
(From Saturdays Daily.)

(From Saturdays Daily,)
Was E.. S. Raglan, otherwise
known as "Trllby," playing cards In
a certain room frequented by more
or less select clientele in the rear
Of savages saloon on the Bowery,
on the night OF March 8. 1906?
District Attorney Henry Bishop
swears that he saw the said Trilby
engaged in the game of cards In that
room on that night and officer Boil
ton testifies that he saw Raglan
leave the room shortly after the at
torney says he saw him playing cards
there. Raglan himself, as we'll as a
number Of his friends, swears that
he was sick in bed at the time men
toned In a room near the saloon.
The question as to which OF the
parties concerned is misled and 9th
erwise mistaken is now before the
jury OF twelve men who heard the
testimony and argument and who
have been celebrating on the case
since 10 O'Clock this morning. II
the Jury accepts the testimony OF
Mr.. Raglan's friends, the defendant
will be cleared OF the charge OF per-
Jury under which he is indicted. II
the Jury believes that the officers
we're correct in their observations
and accurate in their recollection OF
the circumstances, Ragland stands
liable to Imprisonment in the peni-
Tertiary.
E. S. Raglan, the defendant, is a
young fellow OF better family than
reputation. It is rumored that in
addition to having relatives possess
ed OF considerable wealth, he receives
an income himself from property oil
his own. This latter fact might be
accepted as a partial solution for the
inability OF various witnesses to fast
en- upon any certain occupation
which "Trilby" has followed during
the several years he has been IN
Amarillo. He has been extra bar
tender at times aud has taken turns
at hack driving but such pursuits
seem to have been rather in the ma
ture of avocations than means OF
earning a livelihood,
The charge under which he is In
dicted grew out OF gambling prosecu'
tons made over a year ago DIS
trlct Attorney Bishop led in these
prosecutions and in the gathering oil
evidence for them. He did some de-
tective work on his own account IN
the vicinity OF the two rooms in the
rear OF the saloon on the corner oil

this system does not work for that mu- tual cooperation which is desirable but rather excites strife and antagonism; that the position of the emplDye is un- certain in that he is constantly called upon to expend large sums of money to defend baseless suits and is often mulcted excessively in damages in suc- cessful suits; that the position of the employe is one of economic uncertainty, for there is nothing sure about his po- sition in the event of an injury result ing from negligent act and he is left to bear his loss absolutely alone in the event of an unavoidable injury. After a study of the laws in different juris- dictions enlarging the grounds upon which employers shall be held liable to employees for damages on the theory of a wrong committed, writer in the Journal of the Society of Comparative Legislationp says.
 ''The conviction appears to be gain- ing ground that the. only satisfactory solution of the question is to be found in abandoning altogether the ideasAof employers liability and in treating the problem as being essentially that of putting on sound economic basis a
 portion of the necessary taxation of the state. For as the care of the injured
 workman and the support of those
 whom were he injured, he would have

to maintain, fall in the last resort up- on the state, it is the duty of the state to provide that the funds required for the discharge of this liability shall be raised in an equitable manner from among it's subjects, If the production of a commodity exposes the workmen en- gagged in making it to unavoidable dam ger, or renders carelessness on their part liable to be punished with dispro- portionate severity, 1t seems only fair that the consumers of that commodity should themselves bear the burden thus laid upon the state and should not be able to satisfy their wants at the ex- pense of the other sections of the com murity If it is possible to accept as generally true the economic law that tax levied on the producer of manufac- tured goods is ultimately borne, not by him, but by the consumer, the ideally just distribution of liability can be ob- tained by an insurance system under which premiums proportional to the risk of injury involved are laid upon the manufacturers, and by them recovered from their customers"

Employers Liability Acts.

The initial legislation of the most im- portance along this line took place in England in 1880 when parliament en- acted what was called the Employers Liability Act It is to be remembered in connection with this legislation that in England the doctrine that a master may be held liable to an employe for an injury resulting through the neg ligence of another employe doing a duty which devolved upon the master, sometimes known as the doctrine of vice principal, was after much pressure finally rejected by the house of lords, at least as to acts done in conducting & business as contrasted with those done in furnishing the instrumentalities for the uses of employees The main fea- covery may be had where, personal in- jury is caused to a workn1an:
