A RADICAL LABOR n111.

American employers of labor who
feel disposed to grumble at factory in
spection and child labor laws as OPP
p~ressive should take a look at the
new workmer's compensation law which
has just gone into operation in England.
Every person employed in manual
labor or in domestic service, and all
other persons employed in other voca-
tons whose annual stipend does not
exceed $3.50, are under the protec-
ton of the act.
If an employee should be injured in
an accident the employer would be
liable to pay a compensation during
the partial or total Interpretation of
the employee amounting to one-half
of the latter's average weekly earn
ings, but never exceeding S. per week.
In case of a permanent injury pcrmis-
sion is given to commute the payments
by the purchase of an annuity equiv
alent to three-fourths of the annual
value of the weekly indemnity.
One feature of the act is calculated
to encourage race suicide. If an in
jured person, having dependents, dies,
the compensation is to be not less than
$3.50 and not more than $1,000, but If
there r no dependents the employer
gets off with $50 to pay medical and
funeral expenses. Consequently en-
ployers will engage only single per-
sons, and marriage will be severely
at a discount where there are children.

EITHER REPEAL OR SUSPENSION.

The city of Newark, through its
Board of Trade, is now formally and
decidedly against the Potable Water
Commission act and demands that
either a new law be passed or that the
operation of the existing law be sus-
pended for a year. pending the prepara-
ton Of a new one. Paterson. Jersey
City and other municipalities join in
that demand upon the Legislature. and
1t must be needed.
The act applies at present almost en-
tirely to the northern section of the
State and to the great New Jersey
watershed, tributary to New York Bay.
Naturally 1t is in this section that the
greatest interest is felt in the laws
provisions. The water supply question
has been In uppermost one in Northern
New Jersey for years, and 1t has been
attended by much discussion and
anxiety in view of the transactions of
the East Jersey Water Company. a cor
poration universally recognized as a
public enemy.
The desire of the people is to shut
but this cormorant corporation from the
public privileges that belong only to
the people at large. The company is a
squatter. 1t has seized and is using
water rights illegally and contrary to
dered municipalities, and its plans con-
template more and greater plumber. 1t
has attempted, In the face of the long
declared policy of this State, to divert
water for sale In other States, although
the natural supply for the future for
New Jersey municipalities is limited.
It would establish a vested right in an
element necessary for human existence.
No law that gives to the East Jersey
Water Company equal privileges with
municipalities can be tolerated by the
people of the State, and the law recent
~ enacted actually gives to the COM
pany greater privileges and greater OPP
portunities. It should be out of the
hover altogether for a State commits
sion to ~aggrandize a private water COM
pany at the expense of the public, and
this law gives the commission that
perilous power. The amendment intro
duced in the Senate by Senator Wake
lee is a tub to the whale. 1t does not
remove the vicious character of tho
law. If the Senate next Friday does
not comply with the demand for a COM
plete reform of the Potable Water
commisseh bill, a new bill or a re-
pealeR a be passed quickly by the
House. and then 1t will be up to the
Senate to do something. The feeling
against the law Is growing,

Prompt treatment of explosive
rounds on July Fourth will prevent
etanus and save life. The treatment
is simple with ordinary injuries. The
wound should be carefully washed with
boiled water and then fomented with a
hot antiseptic solution. A physician
should be summoned in every case,
however slight the wound. Indeed, it is
claimed that the minute p%unctured
wound which scarcely leaves u trace
upon the skin is more dangerous than
the large liberation which exposes the
flesh to the air. whereas In the slight
wound the poison is burrowed. The
Board of Health can do good work by
sending out a warning to people against
the danger of powder wounds and d.
recting how such injuries should be
treated.

CHAIRMAN DALRYMPLE's PREFER
ENCE.

Disclaiming any idea of speaking for
Chairman Alfred N. Dalrymple, Of the
Republican County Committee, makes
a public statement of his personal pref
erence for Justice Fort, of the Supreme
Court, as the Republican candidate for
Governor. Mr.. Dalrymple believes that
the time has come for Republicans to
express themselves on the subject of
the nomination. SO that a definite idea
can be obtained as to who the candi-
date should be and in order that there
may be unity of action among Repub-
licans.
Chairman Dalrymple is right. His
disclaimer shows that he has no pur-
pose to impose his will on anybody. He
leaves the other members of the COM
mittee to speak for themselves, and it
is known that there is a diversity Of
views in the committee on the candi-
dacy as well as in the community of
party voters. BY exploiting the matter
in the manner he has done, the chair
man disarms those who would charge
that the county committee was harbor-
ing designs of forcing a machine candi-
date upon the voters.
Sheriff Sommer is now the declared
and accepted candidate of the anti-or-
ganization Republicans. as represented
by their leaders. The organization IT.
self cannot speak through its leaders
and must await the primaries to name
its majority choice. But the organiza-
ton leaders. who are not free lances,
can have an individual preference and
express it. Chairman Dalrymple's ans
nouncement is probably the index of
the choice of a majority of the menu
bers Of the county committee, and we
shall doubtless be treated to other an
n~ouncements

To the Editor Of the Evening Star:
Kindly explain the revolution of the moon
around the earth. AS the same side of the
moon is always toward the earth, I ann
understand how. as a friend of mine in
sists, it revolves around Its own axis too.
PUZZLED.
because the moon keeps the same face
toward the earth 1t must rotate once on is
axis while 1t goes around the earth once in
its orbit. To show this take a ball or an
apple or anything round in the hand, and
place a lamp on a table in the middle of
the room. The ball Is to represent the
moon and the lamp the earth. Now carry
the ball around the 1aVaP5 keeping t1e~saane
face of the ball always toward-th& lamp
You will have to rotate the ball as you
carry 1t in such a way that 1t will turn en-
tirely around on its own axis while 1t Is
carried once around the lamp. Try 1t again
In another way. Mark one side of the ball.
Begin on the east of the lamp, with the
mark toward the lamp. The mark will be
on the west side of the ball. Carry the
ball around to the north Of the lamp, with
the mark always toward the west, that Is,
without rotating the ball on its axis. The
mark will not now be directed toward the
lamp. which is now south of the ball. and
the mark must be turned from west to the
south a quarter of a circumference before
1t Is again toward the lamp. Repeat this
at each quarter of the way around the
lamp and you will have turned the ball
through an entire circumference in making
the circuit of the lamp and bringing the
same face Of the ball toward the lamp at
each quarter of the circuit of the lamp.
The moon does rotate once on Its axis dur
ing each lunation. So also do Mercury and
Venus in each of their revolutions around
the sun, and they also keep the same face
always toward the sun. Should the earth
come into the same relation to the sun a
day will be a year long.-Ed.l
