Another Compensation Act.
Philadelphia press.

Philadelphia Press.
Governor Wilson has now in hand
the workmen's compensation act
passed by the New Jersey House and
Senate. He is expected to sign II
promptly. so that Il may Immediately
take its place on the statute books.
That an early opportunity TO carry a
case on appeal 20 the United States
Supreme Court will arise under the
New Jersey law seems probable. En-
ployers and workmen alike will well
come the test Outside these classes
the result will be awaited with In
terest. approaching anxiety, on the
part Of the large body OF citizens who
desire a radical reform I'm that branch
of Jurisprudence which relates TO
workmen's injuries.
The great question at present Is the
constitutionality OF any law for the
compensation Of an injured workman
by his employer when the employer
has not been at fault. This New Jer-
sey act has been carefully drafted by
a commission headed by William B.
Dickson, who recently resigned as
first vice-president OF the United
States Steel Corporation. His activity
in the matter Is one Of the many posi-
tive indications that capital will well
come a compensation law which will
be equitable I'm throwing at least pari
of the financial loss for workmen':
accidents on the employers. As II
England and the continental coun
tries Of Europe, any payments undel
such a system will be calculated n
part of the operating expenses an'
cost Of production.

II the recall" we're a part OF the
constitution Of Wisconsin and the
system were in actual operation. one
Of the immediate certainties would De
the displacement OF the Socialist
government Of Milwaukee. Mayor
Seidel and his associates would nna
themselves forced TO run again ana
certain to go down and out when the
election came. -,
The practical result OF the recai
would be to oust the Socialist admin
istration with its theories scarceiy
tested and its plans undeveloped. Tne
erperiment the new party is trying
would be cut short before It had much
chance 10 make good"
Now IL happens that the Socialists
are for the recall as a radical step IN
their direction, and it happens, also
that many other advocates Of the re-
cali look with friendly interest upon
the tests and advances of Socialism.
In view of these facts Il would be ex-
tremely interesting to see whether the
most jealous workers for the recall
would like TO have their pet cure for
the ills OF representative government
tried in Milwaukee just now.

Vote Is Also Taken on Thea ire Matter and Alderman
 Schmid Makes Address
LIBERAL APPLAUSE GIVEN

The cit, councilmen met at the city hall Wednesday night. but it wasn't a council meeting. Somehow the mayor and city councilman gravi- tated to the city hall and an inform al discussion of the welfare of the city was brought up and considered. What they said or did is not known, as there are no minutes of the meet ing. and ,he only evidence that there had been meeting was several bas- kets full of peanut shells which the porter found in the hall the next morning.
 By the process of elimination and deduction. the council must have in dulged in peanut-eating contest, or it may bs that the merits of various brands of peanuts were demonstrat- ed.
 Councilman Schmid is the proud owner of a theatre and after the pea nut battle had been lost and won, the impressario-councilman extended the body an invitation to visit his theatre on the Gulch. The matter

 Information sas to the character of show was sought by several of the couneilmen. remembering the China town Trunk Mystery. Alderman Sehmid then gave a rehearsal of the moving pictures being shown at his place. It was the story of a brave fireman" rescuing a beautiful girl from the Burning building and near ly losing his own life in the attempt. which of course made him all the more solid with said brave fireman, The rehearsal by Councilman schmid was dramatic and the mayor and other members of the council hung to every worC. There was a heavy pail of suspense over the council. There lay the brave fireman. on the grass-it was in the summer time and no one knew except Councilman Schmid whether he was dead or alive and others feared that the beautiful girl would scorn the brave fireman's love. Councilman Schmid ended the story by saying. And so they were married and lived happily ever after wards SO far as wc can tell from the films'
