THIRTY FOUR MEMBERS UNION

Members of the bricklayers union in
Americas do not agree with the state
ment that there are more workers in
their craft needed here.
'There are now thirty four skilled
bricklayers in Americas said one of
them yesterday, land that is more
proportionately than in any city in
Georgia. Americas is well supplied
with this class of labor and its brick
layers are as skillful in their trade as
can be found any where.
while it is true that just at this
time there is considerable work going
on, it is also true that during a good
deal of the time there is no more than
enough to keep them going, and some
times not enough. The bricklayers are
good class of citizens, making good
money, dong good work.
"They keep their homes here
throughout the year, although some
time sengaged in work elsewhere.
A business man, referring to the
local conditions in this connection,
said:
Sat the present time more work is in
course of operation in Americas and
projected than at any previous time fo1
many years. In addition to the value
it will be to the people making these
improvements it will enable our work
men, who heretofore have frequently
had to go elsewhere to get work, to
stay at home, thus keeping the money
here"

ASYLUM AS GOOD AS A DIVORCE
In Opinion of Negro Again Hunting
Trouble.

Captain John A. Cobb, the urbane
judge of the court of ordinary, has q
gooa many surprises thrown his way,
but the limit came recently when col
ored citizen here applied for marriage
license.
Judge Cobb knew the negro to be
married already, having but recently
committed ''the wife of his BOSOM to
the insane asylum.
This point was sprung upon the
black trouble hunter.
why of course have a wife in the
asylum" he replied ''but hear she can
never recover and will die there, prob
ably; so what is to hinder me from
marrying again now. She never can
come home"
He left the office without the new IL
cense but fully convinced that the
asylum served asa divorce from his
damaged helpmeet.

RAILROAD MEN ARE
VERY WELL PLEASED
Judge Speer'S Decision Is
In Their Favor.
THE EMPLOYERS LIABILITY ACT
Is Constitutional. Railroad EmplOye
Hurt While on Duty Can Recover
Damages Even If Injured
Through ACtOf Other
Employees.
THE EMPLOYERS LIABILITY ACT

The large colony of railroad men in
Americas are we'll pleased with the
opinion of Judge Speer sustaining the
constitutionality of the employers
liability act, passed by the last Com
gress.
Judge Speer IN his opinion handed
down on Monday in the case of Lucy
Snead, administrators, VS.. Central of
Georgia r. r., went exhaustiyely into
the questions raised by the attorneys
for that corporation. The Judge
thoroughly sustained the constitution
atty of the act and held that the pas
sage of such protective measure was
clearly within the power of Congress
under the rights reserved to it to regu-
late inter commerce.
The act in question last session pro-
vides that every common carrier engag-
ed in interstate and foreign commerce
shall be liable to any of its employees
or in case of death to the next of kin,
for damages which may result from the
negligence Of a coemployee, and also
provides that contributory negligence
shall not bar recovery, and that en-
ployment contracts of insurance, relief
benefit or indemnity, which the
employee is obliged to sign, shall not
be any bar or defense.
81 am clear" says Judge Speer las
to the constitutionality of this measure,
but if I were in doubt would uphold
the law. 1t is part of that splendid
practical philosophy of government
which is intended for the betterment of
mankind. The law itself deserves the
support of the entire country.
It's incentive to carefulness on the part
of those who control railways will be
unreasonable. Had it been of force in
the past, thousands of our countrymen,
who are sleeping in untiEmaaee11y graves,
might noK~ bbeele leading useful lives, and
many additional thousands who now
spend the interval of life which remains
to them in the modification of mutila-
ton and in its incurable suffering might
now be happy and well.''

The Springdale news., 1907-09-20
At the Crossing.

While Springdale is forging ahead to the consternation of those who are longing for the old days when we had no railroad and but little civilization, our village council should give heed to crying necessity that is em- phasized every time that we are bumped over the railroad cross- ing at the station.
 At least ten village adminis- trations have come and gone and been jolted over that crossing with sufficient violence to waken an Egyptian mummy to his sense of public duty, and while the actual expense of planking would be but little and the Fris- co could be compelled to pay that, if proceeded against in the proper manner, yet we are con- tinuously being shaken up and the profanity that has been and IS being let loose and lost on the heads of the present administra- tion IS enough to counteract all the effects of tent and house meetings until millennium.
 What are you going to do about 1t?
