EMPLOYEES HAVE NO LIABILITY
Railroad Workers Not Held Respon-
Sshse for Accidents

A new partner in the person OF the
raiiroad employe has literally pushed
his way into the managers ONCE. says
]. o. Pagan in Atlantic Monthly.
So important a factor has he now be-
ccme in the councils of railroad cor
poraIion that hardy a move can be
made in the operating department
without first consulting his rights and
wishes.
Not only is the power and influence
of the railroad employee at the present
day an important factor in railroad
management, but, in the opinion of
competent judges. the time is not far
distant when manager and employe
VIII meet on equal terms and together
lesislate for the interests of all con-
cerned. Now. granting the ever-inl
creasing power of the employe in
framing the rules and influencing the
management. what is there to be said
about the division Of responsibility
At the present day. when an acct
dent happens on a railroad and lives
of passengers are sacrificed by reason
of the carelessness or neglect C en-
ployes, practically the whole moral
and financial responsibility is immedi-
atefy assumed by the management
Heartfelt regret is at once expressed
by the highest authorities. the injured
are visited by sympathetic officials
and every conceivable kind of bill or
expense is at once acknowledged and
paid.
On the other hand. we. the employees.
SinSfy and cnllertsyefv ignore the
whole business We simply stand
back and let the press and the author
tiles figure out reasons and remedies
for themselves We neither adopt
resolutions of sympathy nor pay out a
| single dollar to benefit the families OF
| the dead or to alleviate the sufferings
| of the injured
Considering the division of power
does this adjustment of responsibility
appeal to any fair-minded person. I.
has occurred to some of us that If We
or our organizations were assessed In
hard cash in proportion to our respon
sibility for some of these preventable
| accidents the casualty lists ON ouI
| railroads would very quickly assume
| microscopic proportions An employees
| liability act" would. of course, be
looked upon as an absurdity, yet il UNI
preludiced judges were to analyze q
| few of our accidents they would quick
" conclude that the idea is sanely and
| soberly logical

Oxen as Railroad Builders

The OK as a beast of labor has
about had his day with the Amer
lean farmer. He is raised by whole
sale, killed by wholesale. and then
distributed throughout the world as
beef, but he doesn't have to work.
Up in eastern Canada, however, he
does a big stunt of work before he
is eaten In Nova Scotia. especially,
oxen are still used for all sorts OF
farm work
They plow the fields, haul the hay
and apples and potatoes and cart in
the firewood from the forest They
are slow, it is true, but there in time
and to spare in those parts.
OF late the OK has been helping to
build the railroads in Nova Scotia
He is found to be very useful in grad
ing the roadbed. which calls for q loi
of Shorthand work The oxen arc
yoked in pairs and as many pairs car
be used tandem as are necessary tc
any given job They are patient and
untiring- -
Over the last state of the Nova
Scotia OK it were better to draw the
veil When his working days arr
about over he is fattened and theI
slaughtered. Furthermore, he is eat

have the eating of him, he is well re
