John Mtchelrs statement that more than
100 workmen are killed in this country
every day, that the number OF killed or
manned amounts to upwards OF $4,000 an
nually, makes strong presentation of a
familiar truth, Yet he draws an unfair
conclusion when he says; III we were to
do away with one-third of the judges and
pay the money saved to injured workmen.
instead OF retaining the present system of
legal proceedings to collect damages for
injuries received in the various industries
Of the United states, we would come near
to arriving at some equitable means of
compensation"
The judges did not ordsn the present
system Of legal proceedings, nor did they

one Of Brigham Youngs sons and one
OF his grandsons graduated from the
United States Military academy, both with
high honors. The son became an officer
of engineers and some Of his work stands
today as a monument to his engineering
ability The grandson, who graduated in
the year 1882, and who was one of the
most popular cadets of his day, entered
the artillery service, but after a time he
resigned to enter business in civil life.
When the war with Spain came. Brig
hams grandson took command of an ar
tilery organization known as the Utah
battery and with it he went to the Philip
pines in the place OF command. There
he saw active field service and with his
men won the praise Of the War depart
ment and a fame which in army circles
at least is lasting. Colonel Young of the
Utah battery is visiting in Washington,
where he has a number of classmates sta
toned on duty In the War department
! II is utterly Impossible when looking at
this Utah soldier TO believe that he grad
uated from the military academy twenty
eight years ago and that twelve years ago
he held the chief command in an artillery
| organization in the field. There are gray
veterans in Washington who were the ar
ulleryman's classmates. He looks just as
he did the day that he graduated. and if
a cadet uniform were put on him he could
take his old place as first sergeant OF ID
company Of the battalion Of cadets, and
no one would think that his years made
inconsistent his holding OF noncommis-
stoned rank in STRIPPING soldiers outfit.
