LAW WANTED
BY EMPLOYEES
IT CUTS ATTORNEYS OUT OF
FEES AND FIXES UP SCALE
FOR INJURED WoRKMEN If
THE WONT SUE.
Especial to The Press.)

OLYMPIA, Jan. 21.-The lumber
men have an employers liability
law In Olympia which will make its
formal appearance within the next
few days. The prime motive of the
bill. on the face Of it, appears to
be to cut the attorney for the in
jured workman out Of his fees. The
men behind the measure contend
that when a workman is injured,
the attorney who handles his case
gets the big share of the damages,
and the court costs eat up a large
share of the remainder.
This bill, if it becomes a law,
will permit workman who does
not draw over $500 a year to re-
gain damages without attorneys or
court costs. While the employers
appear anxious to cut of the at
torney's end of the damage suit,
they do not seem to be minded to
share this saving with the work
man.
The limit damages for death, to
be paid to heirs, including all de-
pendant relatives, is $4,000 In case
of permanent disability, the work
man may get three years pay, at
the rate received at the time Of
injury, provided the sum shall not
exceed $4,000. The scale fixed for
partial disability depends upon the
Judge and the salary the man re-
ceived, but it must not exceed SO
week.
This bill does not prevent an
injured workman from bringing
action for damages under the pres
ent statutes, but he may only bring
action under one or the other. He
NAV sue with his attorney If he
prefers and take his chance with
the jury, or begin action under this
law. where they will be no jury.
The proposed measure has not
got to the labor lobby yet, as every
effort is being made to keep it
secret until the proper time. 1t is
essentially an employers bill, and
as such will undoubtedly meet with
the opposition of union labor
While drawn for the benefit of the
men engaged in the lumber indus
try, it will include laborers of all
classes.

and used to generate electric
power.
A large percentage of the small
villages now supplied with cleo
tricity secure their power from
water.
Dairymen all over the country
are Harvesting the streams that
run through their meadows and
pastures. and generating electricity
for their lighting, heating, churning
and even the milking.
The development of large water
powers for the cities is the greatest
economy the industrial world has
ever known, and the saving to the
man in the country. in developed
power from the small streams Is
just as great in proportion.
Water was mans first and simp-
lest source Of power. and having
moved around the great cycle of in
genious mechanism, he is returning
to 1t as his last and best.
Water power is one element that
man cannot waste. But he can
monopolize it.
President Roosevelt estimates
that IL corporations directly or in
directly control water power and
advantageous sites equal to more
than third Of all the developed
water power in the entire country.
And the sites that offer the great
est advantages and hold the stra.
tegic positions have been seized by
this combination.
The possibilities of the transmits
sion of electric power are so limit
less that the reach of such a mo-
nopoly Is utterly unreasonable. It
could not stop the running of the
smaller streams, but it already con-
trolls the machinery by which they
may be harnessed.
The right time to control a mo-
nopoly is before 1t is cerated.
The time to determine that there
shall be no further private owner
ship of public water power is now.
What water power monopoly
means is pretty fairly demonstrated
right here in Spokane. Study up
on what w. w. p. Co. means.

MONOPOLLZING WATER
OF THE WORLD

Enough water flows past st.
Louis to turn all the wheels of the
United States. And it Is said upon
excellent engineering authority that
enough water power is still unde-
veloped in the state of Massachu-
sets. where water power is already
extensively utilized, to equal the
flow of Niagara. The extent of the
water power going to waste in this
country Is beyond human compre-
hension.
But this . is no reason why the
government should give away i'm
measurably valuable water power
privileges to corporations, free OF
cost and free of federal control.
President Roosevelt, in his special
message to congress, stating his
reasons for vetoing the Jam esriver
tunnel bill, gave warning that the
people of this country are threat
ened by a monopoly far more pow
erful, because In far closer touch
with their domestic and industrial
life, than anything known to our
experience.
"A single generation will see the
exhaustion of our natural resources
of oil and gas" the president de-
clared. "and such a rise In the price
of coal as will make the cost of
electrically transmitted water
power controlling factor In trans
portation, manufacturing and
household lighting and heating"
That this warning is not un-
timely is evidenced by figures
taken from the last census reports:
In 1902, 297157.554 long tons of
coal were mined in this country. 1t
is estimated that close to half a
billion tons were mined and con-
sumed last year. And in addition
to that used, the geological survey
experts estimate that through care
less mining methods more than
200, 100000 tons are wasted every
year.
Greedy monopoly, eager for quick
profits, takes out only the coal that
Is best and most easily mined, leav-
ing almost half of the supply buried
forever under the mines debris.
In the same spirit our great for
ests have been swept away-only
the best timber cut for the market
and the rest ruthlessly burned.
The time Is bound to come--and
1t is not far distant-when the plen.
tiful water power of the country
will be at premium.
Already, all through the states of
New England and the middle west
old mill ponds are being repaired

HEALER BILL

Especial to The Press.)


: OLYMPIA, Jan. 21.-The drug
less healers. as opposed to persons
who use poisonous medicine and
surgery" have a long petition in

which they wish to have passed.
The bill proposes to regulate the
practice of all healers who treat
by the following: Water, antisep-
tics, Electricity. Magnetism. sug-
gestive therapeutics Christian
Science, neuropathy, massage,
Swedish mayement, osteopathy,
chiropractieA tnechanical vibration,

The petition bears the names of
200 people from Seattle. Golden
dale seems to be strong drugless
center, for there are as many petit
TONERS from this place as the me.
tropolis of the state.
The bill among other things pro-
vides that any practitioner who
shall injure a patient shall be sub
jected to such fine as Is deemed
advisable and also Imprisonment.
But it is carefully stipulated that
conviction is dependent upon the
testimony of "person competent
in the particular practice in which
the damage Is done. In legislative
language this is known as the

FIRST LIABILITY CLAIM.
Bureau Employe Asks Pay for Time
Lost Through Injuries.

The first case under the government liza
blity act has just come up for settle
ment in the bureau of engraving and
printing. 1t is the case of Patrick II.
Stanley. who was injured August "A and
did not return to work until September 15
Stanley put in a claim for the amount
Of his pay during the period of his alb
sence from work. He had actually been
kept on the pay roll of the bureau. but
the time of his absence was debited
against his annual leave. 1t was decided
by the controller that If he wanted to
claim wages for the time of his absence
he would have to refund the amount paid
him while away. get the same amount
of money allowed for his injury and then
be credited with the time that had been
cut from his annual leave.
While the case was under discussion 1t
was noted that in the liability act a gov
eminent employe is not allowed to claim
recompense for injuries unless the alb
sence from work extends over fifteen
days. 1t is said that some employees who
were forced to lay off for slight injuries
stayed away fifteen days to bring them
selves within the provisions of the act
1t is thought that Congress will be asked
10 amend the act SO TO make it cover
all absence for injuries regardless of
time.

Present Petition to CONGRESS-.

The members of the Civil War Labor

the quartermaster's branch Of the service
in the stirring days of the sixties, have
prepared a petition for presentation TO
Congress. 1t sets forth that the members
of the union We're worked at night and
frequently Sundays owing to the exigen-
cies of the military service; that they
were subject to dangers arising from ex-
posture and the mimic balls of the sol
diers in gray, and that they were some
times required to act as combatants.
They claim that they were promised pay
at the rate of $50 month, but that their
officers deducted So month and in some
cases more from their salaries. To this
deduction the petitioners say they did not
agree, but in spite of their protests it
was taken from them. They ask Congress
to reimburse them in the amounts thus
deducted. The petition is signed by the
members of the association and these Of
