There is now In the home a girl from
Rome who was sentenced TO serve -
months lin the chain gang. She is
serving her sentence in the home in

demeanor. She visited her lover at the
Jail and carried to him a file. with
which he affected his escape. The
/ girl was arrested. tried and convicted
for aiding and abetting in the escape
of a criminal.

girl from Jasper who had been kept in
Jail for practically a year. She Is the
principal witness in a criminal case,
and interesting parties attempted 10

was threatened with violence Her

been committed to the home for five
years
still another case is that of a IL
year old girl whose widowed mother
lives in Atlanta. The girl had a good
position, but her mother was fearful
that she was going astray. The home
was petitioned TO take the child i'm
charge. The agent appeared on the
following morning at the place where
the girl was employed and informed
her that she would have to accompany
him to the home. For the first week
of her stay the girl was greatly dis
satisfied, but she has now become ac-
customed TO her surroundings and is
perfectly a. well satisfied as any of the
other inmates.
The home is operated on the convent
idea and every class of fallen woman

In the article which President Taft
has written FOR the Republican con-
gressional campaign book, so a dis
patch from Beverly asserts, he gives
the tariff a prominent place and dis
cusses its revision by separate sched-
ules, I'm the light Of information fur
nishcd not by interested parties. but
by the specialists Of the tariff board.
This was his object when he took the
course which resulted in his securing
at the late session Of Congress an ade-
quate appropriation for the NANTES
nance Of the tariff board. Those who
fought this appropriation, as was said
then, and as is evident now. were
lighting tariff revision.
The president has never claimed
that the tariff could not be improved.
Even in his winona speech he mem
toned schedules which he condemned.
The tariff board will be able to lay
before Congress interchangeable data
regarding the cost OF manufacture OF
protected articles and the difference
between the wages of labor and the
expenses of living in this country and
competing countries, so that the re-
vision OF schedules will be scientific.

Chase S. Osborn has declared for
workingman's compensation act to
take the place of the present fellow
servant provision i'm common law,
which prevents man injured through
the negligence of a fellow servant
from receiving any compensation for
his injury. Mr.. Osborn would meet
this unfair condition I'm a novel and
original way
Mr.. Osborn's views are set forth in
letter to Hal II. Smith of Detroit.
The subject has aroused great interest
among employers and workers
throughout the land, so Mr.. Osborn's
views were asked for.
Mr. Osborn in his letter reviews the
old provision of the common law, and
the principles that a servant assumes
the risks of his employment, and can
not recover If hurt by the neglect of
one employed with him.
"The reason for these rules no long
er exists says Mr.. Osborn. IF a
workman without fault on his part
falls from the top Of the Ford build
ing during it's construction his widow
and children should not become n
charge upon the public; nor is ii just
though not the law TO hold an engi-
neer and a section hand upon the rail-
road fellow servants"
The real difficulty Mr.. Osborn
thinks. Is i'm the $50 called ambulance
chasing lawyers" when lawyers of
this type get cases the injured man
must pay the lawyer a share, and the
employer pays more toll than he
! should.
Mr.. Osborn's idea is that a working
mans compensation act should be
passed so framed that when n man is
injured without negligence on his part
he can be compensated without the
interference of lawyer or n court
Rules could he established for com
pensation, based on the injured ones
disablement his age, his wages, his
length Of service, the number Of his
lde6endents. This Is the general plar
which Mr. Osborn would like to follow
In working out the solution.-Detroi'

"Puss" Palmer was in Grand Rap
ids today. He was bitter in his de-
nunciation of the charge that a plan
is under foot to have him take Au-
ditor General Fuller's place. 1T only
goes to show how desperate they are
in the Kelley camp" he said There
is not one word of truth in the state
! ment. It is made up of whole cloth
in the hope that some of Mr.. Os-
born's friends will turn against him.
1t is a mean trick to break into the
close circle of Mr.. Osborn's friends.
There is not the smallest basic truth
upon which the charge in part or in
whole possibly could be based. a

general. l have never discussed any
such thing with Mr. Osborn nor has
he ever consulted with me. / have

born nor / have made any effort to
gain control of county conventions.

men and they caught just forty-four of
the finest black bass that ever swan

might know the good fishermen they
were. ''Oh, you black bass!' Forty
