DEMOCRATS IN CONVENTION.
Division of Opinion Regarding SEM
atorial Endorsement.

atOrldI InOOrSement.
LIVINGSTON, Sept. 8.-By . vote of
IA to II, just before the convention re-
convened, the committee ton platform
and resolutions decided to report
plank favoring endorsement OF SEN
atorial candidate. This pressges q
bitter scrap in the convention itself,
with Walsh on one side land Clark
and Conrad arrayed against him.
T. j. Walsh of Helena drew first
blood in his fight for control of the
democratic convention in session here
today and for an Endorsement of q
senatorial candidate. Atthe meeting
of the state central committee this
morning he was named as temporary
chairman by unanimous vote. Ben
jamin F. Maiden of G allatin county
was selected as temporary secretary.
The nomin alton Of Walsh for temper.
ary chairman came after Governor
Norris had declined the honor. No
permanent chairman was slated, but
the governor will probably be given
this position.
Mr.. Walsh was anxious to have the
temporary craftsmanship, as he be.
lieves it will give him an opportunity
to strike vigorousl blow for the in.
dorsement of senatorial candidate
and he is pretty firmly convinced that
If Endorsement carries he will be the
man named.
Following right after Chairman
George who will:make an earnest de.
mand for the Endorsement idea the
Helena lawyer hopes to carry the con.
vention off its feet andiwin before the
anti.indorsement men get their second
wind. w. A. Clark of Butte, the for
mer senator and copper millionaire Of
Paris. New York andlat present resid.
ing in Butte, arrived In q special car
this morning. His presence set the
preconvention crowd at q furry and
quickly accenua ated the widely herald
ed belief that he would again be .
candidate for senatorial honors. 1t
was like cold water to some of the in
dorsers and many who were about to
turn to the Endorsement idea focked
to the side Of the millionaire upon his
appearance.

A BYRD OF PREY,

The Hon. Richard E. Byrd, Speaker
Of the House of Delegates, has been
for some time a conspicuous figure in
the public affairs of Virginia. Recently
he was made more conspicuous by being
appointed by Governor Mann as special
counsel for the State, under the provi-
sions of bill that was secretly attached
to the General Appropriation Bill pass
ed by the General Assembly. This an
polntment raised so much unfavorable
criticism from newspapers and citizens
that Mr.. Byrd, after much delay, con-
cluded to decline the appointment as an
annual one at stated salary. He has
however, expressed his purpose to act
as special counsel in cases where the
Governor shall call upon him. This, of
course. will be done until the SIS. 900 ap-
preparation is consumed.
The Machine has been very diligent
IN providing for its members, and no
one, it seems, has Jared better than
Mr. Byrd. He will draw a goodly sum
from the State treasury during the year
1910, as we understand he will be on
-FOUR different pay rolls. First, he is
Speaker Of the House of Delegates, for
which he receives an ample salary.
Second, he is Examiner of Records for
the judicial circuit in which his county.
Frederick, is located, and he gets large
pay for the little work he does as such
Examiner. Third, he is special counsel
for the State and will get that IS. 900
rake-of. Fourth, he is g member of
the commission created by the General
Assembly to reform the tax laws Of the
State, and will receive per diem COM
pensation while engaged on that COM
mittee- The bill creating the commits
sion appropriates $4,000 to pay the ex-
penSes thereof. Out of this sum an ex-
pert is to be paid $500 per month. The
members of the commission are to be
paid no salary, but they will take per
Hem and expenses, as has formerly
been done by members of such COM
missions.

to say relative to the plan recently in

Accident Relief.

BRIEF mention was made last week of
the proposed plan for relief of men in
Jured and provisions for taking care of
the families of men killed while in the
employ of the United States Steel Cor
poratien or any of the constituent COM
panies and establishes a system, which
can be adjusted, to the new legislation
that will probably be enacted, in the
next ten years, in the different States in
which the corporation operates.
In more ways than one then, the new
plan, which went into effect Nav LIST. for
an experimental year, is a step in ad
vance. While some of the provisions
90 not measure up to the proposals
made by the various State commissions
which have been considering the sub
!ect, many of them are radical depart-
ures from contemporary practice, and
as voluntary act show both foresight
and hberality. The plan disregards the
idea Of negligence entirely and may be
said to recognize that share of the in
come loss due to work accidents should
be charge on the industry; it covers
hazardous and non-dangerous employ
ments alike; it puts the entire cost of
the plan on the business without anv
contribution whatsoever from the men.
No relief will be paid if suit is brought.
1t naturally requires a release from Ie-
gal liability upon payment of the relief.
but it avoids the involved and question
able relationships created by some re-
lief associations.
The Steel Corporation makes q point
In its announcement that the payments
1T proposes are "for relief and not "a
compensation. ''There can be no
real compensation for permanent inju-
ries, and the notion of compensation ia
necessarily based on legal liability
which is entirely disregarded in this
plan as all men are to receive the relief.
even though there be no legal liability
to pay them anything" In line with
this position there are no death bene-
hts for single men and extremely low
disability benefits for them. Large
numbers Of immigrant laborers fall in
this class. Moreover, in death cases
the wording of paragraph "a specifies
that relief will be granted married
men living. with their families" This
would exclude the nonresident families
Of aliens unless the manager of the re-
lief sees fit to exercise his discretionary
power in their favor. The death bene- !
it for a married man is eight months
wages and this is increased ten per cent
or every child under l6; an adjustment !
