Senators Have Odd Offices.

State senators at present have light,
portable offices, with collapsible trans
parent tops and sides, which they
sity requires. Immediately after the
senate adjourned a score of soIons
erected their novel little Offices in the
supreme court room, where the SEN
ate is now temporarily holding it's
daily sessions, and spreading out
their bills, papers, letters and other
personal effects, proceeded to look
over their mail, write letters, draft
resolutions and bills and perform their
other sundry legislative duties.
Postmaster Williams in the mean
time carried the senate postoffice
around in his arms, delivering letters
and other mail to the Industrious but
dignifed solons. These temporary Of
fees were used because the perma-
nent private rooms Of the senators are

sides of the chamber to see what the
other was fixing up to pull off at
future session.

German System Good.

Germany, said Mr.. Ingalls,, has no
rival in the industrial war, and that
country has the most advanced sys-
tenn of workmen's compensation. In
that country the employee does not
contribute to the accident feature, and
that same theory is presented in the
bill before the Wisconsin legislature.
In response to a query by Assembly
man Gettle, Mr. ingalls, said that per
sons afflicted with Occupation dis
eases" might come within the bene-
fits of the act, although they are not
included in the present bill.
He further explained that the board,
operating under the proposed law,
will be situated in Madison and all
notices of a claim or objection to a
claim will be filed with this body,
which is given power to appoint local
examiners to report in specific cases.
Any person wishing to take a case
into the circuit court would come to
Madison and operate through the
board. Senator Linley considered this
a source of considerable expense. It
would be much cheaper, Mr.. Linley
thought, if the action could be started
locally. Mr.. ingalls, said the presence
of many local boards would result in
too much confusion. Senator Husting
suggested that there might be local
boards and that their rulings in gen
eral way might be laid down by the
central body, thus eliminating the
confusion anticipated by Mr.. ingalls,,

cuses, listening to the reading OF the
riot act by the speaker on the subjects
of lobbyists and others" and now
newspaper. men should conduct them
selves. the assembly has completed
it's organization and begun to receive
bills and resolutions. Speaker In
grams little TRADE enlivened the pro-
ceedings to a considerable extent, as
it displayed his attitude toward the
practice of persons interested in leg1s-
latiOn Of fraterniZing with members
on the floor. Hereafter visitors must
keep within the circumscr1bed limits
of the galleries and the ante room,
and when it is desired to speak to
member the name of the person seek
ing the interview must be sent TO the
assemblyman by the door attendant.
The speaker made it plain that he
would enforce his rule inside the
chamber, but that their actions out
side that room must be dictated by
their own consciences.
The usual effort to limit the length
of the session was made in the Intro
duction of a joint resolution by Axel

Commissioners Retained Fees.
After waiting nearly two years for
action on the part of the attorney gen.
eraI in the matter Of proposed suits
against three former insurance COM
missioners, to recover something like
$4,000 alleged to be due from them
for valuation and compensation fees
collected and retained by them, State
Treasurer Dahl has written to the new
attorney general, Levi H. Bancroft,
requesting him to give early consid-
Grafton to the matter. Until the law
was strengthened two years ago, for
mer commissioners were in the habit
of putting the money they received as
fees for making examinations on in
surance companies into their pockets
after paying the expenses Of such ex-
aminations. Now the statute Of linn
itations has run in favor Of all but the
last four commissioners-Wi H.
Fricke, Emil Giljohann, Zeno M. Host
and George f. Beedle. The latter is
affected only as to compensation fees
collected by him during his first term,
from 1907 to 1909.
The present commissioner is turn
ing over all fees, as provided by the
law, but he will be reimbursed by leg
islative action soon, for expenses in
Cured in the examinations he has
made, and the law also will provide
for the payment of such expenses out
of the state treasury in the future.
Hits "Inhuman Theory"
In answer to a question by Assem-
blyman Stevens along the line Of the
solvency or insolvency Of the employ
er, Mr.. Blaine said that point could
not be covered by law. The senator
said that there was no sense in the
'inhuman theory" that the man who
is the producer shall assume all the
risks. Mr.. Blaine said that the ques-
ton Of board had been given careful
consideration by the committee. Labor
and manufacturing leaders told him
the local board scheme would prove
a failure The central body idea, he
said, will simplify operations under
the law. Mr.. Blaine declared that the
success of the Wisconsin railroad
commission Influenced the members
of the committee in favoring the cen
tralization thought

The inquest which is being held by
the royal commission in England into
the differences between the railroad
managers and their trade unionist
employees, has brought out some inter
esting facts and statements. Some OF
the veteran workmen have testified
that their reason for not joining the
unions, or for withdrawing from them,
is because the unions are no longer of
advantage to the men. They were
while they were controlled for the
men by the men, these veterans de-
clare. They argue that extreme So
cialists, often from other lands, have
come into the unions and got control
of them. and are now dominating and
directing them for their own selfish
purposes. The trade unionists, OF
course, strongly deny the impeach-
ment and point to the benefits the
worllinemon have received by afflia
/ ion with the unions.
