CLEMENS MADE
@'' A GOOD FIGHT

Representative Clemens made a
good fight against the bill to make
drawing checks against an overdrawn
account, felony.
1t made every business man run the
risk of going to the penitentiary for
an overdraft.
His protest went unheeded and the
house passed the bill.
The thinking men of the house
who stand against ky-yi voted no.
He showed that drawing the check
disclosed the intent.
Clemens spoke but two minutes and
nearly killed the bill.
He showed that it placed a dangers
Gus power in the hands of the banker.
If he wanted to consider such a
check mere oyerdraft he could do
so.
If he wanted to consider the check
an attempt to procure money by fraud
he could do so.
The bill makes crime out of a
practice that is common business
custom

TROUBLE WITH
THE ROAD BILL

What is the matter with the Web
ster Good Road bills?
1t was stated in the legislature that
certain gentlemen had spent $4,000
to educate the people on these bills.
Such an expenditure ought to have
produced some good laws. The SEN
ate has so considered and has passed
some of the Webster bills.
The house demurs for some reason
and balks at the Webster bills sent
over from the senate.
1t is to be regretted that bills on
which $4,000 has been spent are so
poorly received This money evil
IDENTITY was not spent educating the
members of the house.
If their constituents have been edu-
Gated, the members are still in the
forests of Missouri.
There ought to be some way to
make the house see the merits of
these bills,

A PLEA FOR THE
INJURED WORKMAN

The Supreme Court of the United
States updeld the 10-hour law for
working men on the ground OF
sound public policy passed by an
Oregon Legislature in 1907
Every injured workman shall re-
Ceiye a compensation.
Innocent women and children are
the greatest sufferers when the bread
winner is crippled or killed.
Germany has demonstrated the
value of industrial insurance. Let
Oregon follow.
The sight of wounded or maim-
ed workman in court room suing
for damages on account of personal
injuries, who is surrounded by his
wife and little children, is travesty
on modern commercial life, The
passage of the Abbott Bill will tenn
per and remedy this condition.
Oregon pays thousands of dollars
in indemnity insurance to Eastern
casualty companes-not over fifteen
per cent eventually reaches the
workman.
Where Does the Balance Go?
Upon the Abbott Bill every en-
plOyer can contract with his en-
ployes as to the amount he shall Sc
cure when injured There is no
guess work about it.
The passage of the Abbott Bill
will tend to reduce the number of
accidents, Careless employers are
penalized.
No rights under the Initiative
No, $50 are invalidated by the pas
sage of the Abbott Bill, which is in
the interest ofshumanity and society.

only three small precincts yet to hear
from, the people of Seattle have re-
called Mayor H. C. Gill and elected
George w. Dilling to fill out the un-
expired term.
Edward J. Brown, a Socialist can
didate, polled 1857 votes.
The recall was brought about by
the Welfare League, an organization
Of citizens who charged Gill with
gross inefficiency and his subordinate
officials with graft and corruption.
1t was chargd that an organized vice
syndicate was protected by Chief of
Police Wappenstein, an official whom
Gill retained in Office over the daily
protests of thousands of citizens and
the two leading newspapers of the
city.
Gill refused early today to make
any comment upon the result of the
vote. Today is his last day in Office,
after nearly eleven months as mayor
Of Seattle.
The vote will be canvassed today,
and tomorrow Dilling will assume his
duties.

upon the person arrested, which such
person would have a right to resist

same as an assault by any individual
not a peace officer
When Weapon May BE Used.
"A man has the right to resist an
unlawful attack upon himself or an
unlawful arrest although made by
peace officer, with sufficient force to
repel the unlawful attack or arrest
and to escape and defend himself
against the same; and where an un-
lawful arrest is made, although by a
known officer. and the officer himself
uses deadly weapon, or signifies his
immediate intention to do so, or
where an unlawful arrest is made or
attempted in such a way as to put one
in fear of death or great bodily harm,
the use of deadly weapon by the
person sought to be arrested, would
be justified
More than that, if the appearances
are such as to lead a reasonable man
in the situation of the defendant at
the time under all the circumstances
to believe that his person is about to
be attacked or he is about to be un.
lawfully arrested although not ac-
tually in danger, he would have q
right to act upon the appearances and
resist the apparent danger or the un-
lawful arrest with sufficient force tC

IF Eckhart had unlawfully arrest
ed the defendant, the defendant had {
right to resist and escape from the
arrest and to use sufficient force tC
overcome the force which Eckhar
actually applied to him, or was appar

circumstances, that in enforcing al
unlawful arrest of the defendant, i
reasonably appeared that Eckhar
was about to infiict upon the defen
dant death or great bodily harm, thu
