EMPLOYEES COMPENSATION Law
State Of Washington Enaets Progressive
Legislation Protecting Workmen
Against Injury.

Detailed Information has just been re-
ceived at the headquarters of the Amer
lean Federation OF Labor relative to the
employees compensation law recently
passed by the state legislature of Wash
ington. The new law covers the subject
in the most comprehensive manner
A tax is to be levied upon all employ
ers OF labor ranging from .020 to 100
per cent. per year upon the amount of
the average pay roll. according to class.
Industry is divided into various classes
a. in number. death benefit of SIS is
provided for. and in addition monthly
payments are to be made to the widow
during widowhood, and SIS per month for
each child, under the age of 16 at the
occurrence of the injury until such child
shall have reached l6. but total payment
shall not exceed s35 per month Upon
marriage of widow lump sum equal
to l2 times her monthly allowance. s240
shall be paid her. but the pay for chill
dren under I6 shall be continued as
above. The law relating to permanent
disability or death reads as follows:
For every case of injury resulting in
death or permanent total disability 1t
shall be the duty of the department to
forthwith notify the state treasurer. and
he shall set apart out of the accident
fund a sum of money for the case. to be
known as the estimated lump value of
the monthly payments provided for it.
TO be calculated upon the theory that a
monthly payment of $50 to person 80
years of age. is equal to lump sum
payment. according to the expectancy OF
life as fixed by the American mortality
table. of $4,000. but the total in no case
to exceed the sum OF $4,000"
The sum thus arrived at will be placed
at interest to provide the monthly pay
ments given above.

An English Labor Journal Publishes {
Humorous Episode Written Under
Non de Plume Of "Picket."

Much comment is indulged in by
Americans relative to the slow compre-
hension by Englishmen of our wit But
that Britons are not totally devoid of a
sense of levity, the accompanying
storiette shows 1t also finds its counter
part on this side of the Atlantic:
"In approaching the subject of the
rush ror union benefits I know that /
am liable to tread on many corns. But
it can't be helped. The position, put
tersely, is this: Many unions and many
officials in the past have adopted SEN
timental rule-ofthumb method of
stretching a point The time for taking
a shilling liability for twopence is, how
ever. thing OF the past. 1t has been
demonstrated a score of times that the
members who pay the most grudgingly.
and who do the least for union. are the
keenest on benefits. They remind one
of an old fogey who, after great persua-
sion. consented to be proposed as a mem
ber of a political club. The entrance
fee was shilling and the contributions
a penny a week He was admitted. but
he wanted to know. you know
What are the benefits?' he asked
"'Oh. you'll help the cause

There is no sick pay

LABOR is KING.

Labor clears the forest, drains the mo-
rass, makes the wilderness rejoice and
blossom as the rose. Labor drives the
plow and scatters the seeds, reaps the
harvest, grinds the corn and converts it
into bread, the staff of life. Labor tends
the pastures and sweeping the waters, as
well ss eultivating the soil, and provides
with daily sustenance the thousand mil
lion Of the family of man. Labor gath
ers the gossamer net of the caterpillar
cotton from the field. the fleece from the
flock and weaves it in raiments soft,
warm and beautiful, the purple robe of
the prince and the gray gown of the
peasant being alike in its handiwork. La
Dor molds the brick. splits the slate,
quarTies the stone. shapes the column
and erects not only the humble cottage
but the gorgeous palace, the tapering
spire and the stately dome.
Labor. driving deep in the solid earth,
brings up its hidden store of coal to feed
ten thousand furnaces and in millions of
homes. to defy the rich veins of deeply
buried rocks, extracting the gold, silver,
copper and tin Labor smelts the iron
and molds 1t into thousand shapes for
use and ornament, from the massive pill
lar to the tiniest needle. from the ponder
Gus anchor to the wire gauze, from the
mighty fly wheel of the steam engine to
the POLISHED purse ring or glittering
bead. Labor hews down the gnarled oak
and shapes the timber. builds the ship
and guides it over the deep. plunging
through the billows and wrestling with
the tempest to bear to our shores the
produce of every cline. Labor. laugh

in hatrefis. jealousies and revenge. Let
