INDUSTRIAL
INSURANCE
a Ii ent I eatules Ct Employers
Liability Law Just
Enacted
N EFFECT OCT. l, 1901
Industries Are Class fie !, and
pay Into Fund According
to Hazard

Probably no act ever passed by
any legislature of the state has re-
ceived more discussion from the press
than the law enacted this winter for
industrial insurance.
1t provides compulsory insurance,
with the state as agent, for employees
engaged in dangerous callings. 1t re-
pals the common law governing the
remedy of workmen against employ
ers for injuries received in hazard.
Gus work. The remedies that it pro
vides for the relief Of workers and
their families or dependents are pro-
vided without consideration of ques-
tons Of fault and to the exclusion of
every other remedy. Except as 9th
erWise provided, it abolishes civil
suits over industrial accidents and
the jurisdiction of courts over them.
in short, it revOlutiOniZes the law of
this state as to industrial accidents.
taking the burden from the employe
and putting it upon the industry.
The law, as between employer ana
employee, goes into effect on October
of this ear. Each employer is to
pay a percentage of his payroll for
July, August and September into the
treasury of the state before October
|, shortages having to be made good
before February | of 1912. But next
year and every year after each EN-
ployer must pay percentage OF the
total payroll for that year into the
states treasury before January ID.
This percentage is based upon the
supposed dangerousness of the indus
~. The rate has been criticized as
iA9CcUrately representing the rela
i've hazards Cf the several indus
t1ics. but the law provides that the
respective rates shall be readjusted
as experience proves REIMBURSEMENT to
be required. Each class is liable
only for the accidents occurring in
that class. If at any date of pay
ment by that class it's fund in the
treasury suffice to meet demands no
collection need be made. Should it,
however. be found by experience that
the drain on the fund exceeds the
| contribution from that class then it
must make the deficit good by Febru
airy l of the following year.
The administration of the law is
imposed on a department of indus
trial insurance. This consists of
three commissioners appointed by
the governor and receiving each 49,
900 a year. One holds Office for two
years after the enactment of the law,
another for four and another FOR
six. Afterward the term of each shall
be six years.
The sum of $15OOO0 or so much of
the sum as is necessary, is appro-
priated as an administrative fuVdl
The maximum of the fund to be rails
ed for accidents, which is expected
to amount to $1.5OO,O0O. is formally
appropriated to this object in order
to comply with constitutional require
ments.

Modern Department Store Of
Livingston's & Co. Is Opened
For Business
NEW MERCANTILE ERA
Mammoth Stocks of Merchan-
disc In New Building a
Credit to Aberdeen

The opening of the new department
store by Livington & Co. Monday, on
the corner of Heron and l streets,
marks an epoch in merchandising on
Grays HarbOr, and shows a very credi
table confidence in the stability and
future of Aberdeen by the manage
ment. The building was planned for
this store, and is ideal for the pur-
pose. With 10000 feet of floor space,
SO arranged as to minimize waste
space, it has been fitted up elegant
ly yet with an eye single to the re-
quirments of the various departments.
The building just finished was com
menced last June and was largely
planned by j. A. Livingston after a
study by him of department store sys-
stems nthe larger cities of the east.
While this establishment is not on
the scale of such stores in Chicago,
New York and such cities, it is plan
ned along similar lines, with a view
of affOrding the shopper an oppor-
tunity to purchase anything required
in the lines Of housekeeping or fur
nishing without leaving the house.
There are special departments for
each line, groceries. meats and bak.
cry goods being grouped in one room,
while the wearing apparel depart
ments are segregated into sections,
as are the other lines of goods car.

stock Of well selected merchandise.

this roof, in twenty-five separate ,}e.
partments.
Since coming to Aberdeen, little
over four years ago, Mr.. j. \. Liv-
ingston has upon three occasions NOV
ed his store into larger quarters, a
fact that is expressive of MS sue

OF this trade and bespeaks for him

FULL CREW BILL
BECOMES A LAW
Governor Signs Measure and
Vetoes Hoquiam Park Bill
On Last Day

OLYMPIA. March 21-With the
signing of the full crew" bill and
the vetoing of the Jensen liquor bill
and the Hoquiam park bill, Gov. Hay
today disposed of the final measures
passed by the 1911 legislature.
OF the siXty-one senate bills pass
ed, only one was vetoed in full and
one. the jute mill bill, lost one sec
ton.
OF the seventy-fve house bills that
got through both branches of the les
stature. only one was not approved
by the chief executive.
Bill Unconstitutional
All the attorneys consulted agreed
hat the Hoquam park bill was un-
constitutional, as it would dispose of
state lands without public auction.
In his veto message on the Jen-
sen bill, the governor quotes the SUI
preme court on several points, and
says that in the language of the court
the repeal of the old law would per-
NIT drug store to become a grog
shop.
Would Let Down Bars.
AS the law now stands, a druggist
may sell pure alcohol for mechanical
purposes on a mechanics order. While
if the Jensen bill became a law. SUI
Dreme court decisions indicate that
all a druggist would have to do
would be to keep a register of his
sales, and he would not be required
to have more than a state license
to sell to every person who wanted
intoXicants.

What the Kidneys Do

All the blood in, the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
