EMPLOYERS LIABILITY SUSTAINED

Washington-The circuit court of ap-
peals of the District of Columbia has
rendered a decision that is exceedingly
important in that the decision marks the
boundary lines of the operation of the
employers liability act as applied to
common carriers. The Washington Ter
minal company and the Baltimore &
Ohio railroad were sued to recover dam.
ages on account of an accident which a
fireman sustained while operating a
switch engine within the precincts of the
union station. In the lower court it was
held that the Washington Terminal com
pany did not come within the meaning
and provisions of the employers liability
act. The court of appeals holds that q
terminal company is a common carrier.

SPEECH BY BUCHANAN.

Washington-Frank Buchanan, iron
worker and one of the labor group, made
an interesting speech before the house
on the admission of New Mexico and
Arizona. He devoted almost the entire
time to the advocacy Of the recall feature
of the Arizona constitution. Whatever
may be said relative to other members
of congress, it is becoming APPARENT to
many old stagers that the new members
of congress from the ranks of labor are
a force that must be reckoned with.
Buchanan's effort was commendable and
gave evidence of his future usefulness
as a legislator.

employees in the civil service in procuring
an increase in salary, has foundered on
the rock of intemperate utterance. Its
secretary made a lurid address, and as
a result practically all the officers, in
Guiding mostly business men, resigned.
thus leaving the secretary the chief resi-
due of the association.

the recommendation to congress of one

a growing sentiment in favor of penny

PENNSYLVANIA STRIKE.

Washington-The strike among the

deavoring to organize the men in AL

Tulsa, Okla, Jan. 16.-Through Al
bert L. Wilson, of Kansas City, the
Uncle Sam Oil company of Kansas
and the Uncle Sam Oil company of
Arizona, defendants in the $500,000
damage suit filed by the Uncle Sam
Oil company of Oklahoma, Saturday
filed their reply to the suit in the dis
trict court at Tulsa, denying many of
the allegations made by the plaintiff
company and making several stiff
charges themselves. The reply is fif-
teen typewriter pages.
The defendants, the SCI 100000 Ari-
zona corporation, and the $65,00O,OOO
Kansas concern, deny the charges that
they have received kilograms, orders
and private mail belonging to the
plaintiff, or that it had at any time
used the name of Uncle Sam Oil com
pany of Oklahoma, where it damaged
the company; the defendants, however
admitted that there are two Uncle
Sam Oil companies doing business in
Kansas and Arizona.
The reply petition scores the Stand
ard Oil company and the postoffice de
partment. 1t makes strong allegations
that the Kansas legislature passed
laws interfering with the greed fol
gain of the Standard company, anC
the latter, in turn, raised the blacl
flag of destruction against the inde
pendent producers of the state. Th'
defendants declare that they are oper
ating in opposition to the Standard oi
company instead of being in any wa,
connected with the octopus company
The Kansas Uncle Sam company, az
cording to the petition, was organize

was threatened with the issuance @

if the writer will sign his name to the
letter he will know better how to deal
with him. The following is the letter:
Centralia, Okla, Jan. II, 1912.
Mr.. Ridenhour, Vinita,
Sir: In case your deputy sheriff
gets drunk and disorderly, the sity ar
rests him Who must pay his fine,
him or the county. In case he and his
brother are selling booze and they
should be arrested would they have to
pay a fine.
Send up some feller and let him buy
some whiskey from them. 1t would
be appreciated by the good citizens.
Respectfully,

Reply to CompanY's Suit

describes the fields connected and the
pipe lines laid.
One of the strongest allegations in
the whole petition is made when the
attorney refers to the charges of fraud
and indictments returned against H.
H. Tucker.
He says: Seemingly the postoffice
department is under the control of the
Standard Oil company, that when
these cases were brought before the
court they were dismissed on a de-
murrer, and when one case did reach
the jury the defendant was found not
guilty; that the government depart
ment issued fraud orders against H.
| H. Tucker and others connected with
the Uncle Sam Oil company of Kan
sas without the slightest particle of
evidence, doing untold injury to the
defendants inasmuch as the company
had $500 stockholders"
There also appears in the petition
an account of what Senator r. L..
Owens of Oklahoma tried to do in the
senate about this case of too many
Uncle Sam Oil companies: 1t says
that he introduced a resolution thor
oughly to investigate the matter, and
that the bill, for some unknown rea-
son, was pigeonholed for good.
/ The real interesting part of the an
lswer appears in this way. The de-
PENDANTS allege that E. A. Sterling
was made purchasing agent to market
all of the products from the West Tul'
sa refinery; that not long after this
contract expired he was made presi
dent of the Big State Oil and Gas com
pany; that this company has been
marketing oil from the defendants re
{ finery at West Tulsa; that the presi
dent of the Big State Oil and Gas
{ company has used the name of the de
PENDANTS and tried to do business il

v|N|TA To GET NEW
MASONIC TEMPLE
Committee Already at Work Securing
Tenants For Store Rooms of
Proposed Building.
From Mondays Daily

FROM MONDAY Daily
Vinita will soon have a new Masonic
temple, if the plans decided on at the
last meeting of the local lodge are
carried out
The Masons propose to erect a new
building, with a fifty-foot frontage on
Scraper street. The building will be
50x125 feet and two stories, and will
be modern in every respect. The en-
tire upper floor will be arranged for a
Mason's home. The lower floor will
be divided into two store rooms to
rent for $50 per month each.
A committee, consisting of Judge
Parker, chairman, DR.. Oliver Bagby
and o. L. Conner was appointed to
formulate plans and to secure tenants
for the two store rooms. The lease
contracts have been prepared and as
soon as tenants can be found for the
two lower rooms work on the project
will be pushed.
With the heavy demand for store
rooms it is not likely the committee
will be long delayed in getting the
tenants. Thus Vinita is assured of an
other handsome new building in the
early spring.

 Immediately after the destruction of Admiral Cervera's fleet, which he help ed to accomplish as gunner on the Iowa, MT. Carroll was sent to the Philippines. After the Spanish War he was in China at the time of the Boxer uprising. It was as the re- suit of an injury at that time that he was retired.
 The effect of the terrible disaster to the Maine had lasting effect on the officers and men who survived it. with many of whom Gunner Carroll was acquainted. He named over a num- Der of those that he knew who had gone insane or committed suicide. MT. Carroll said that he understood that all newspaper reference to the present investigation was being kept away from Rear-Admiral Charles D. Sigs- bee, retired, who was captain of the ship at the time of the explosion. 1t was his opinion that any evidence of the explosion having been caused from the inside would be fatal to Admiral Sigsbee.

 The occasion was appropriately chosen and its whole tone was ex- pression of quiet and easy grace, :n harmony with the desire and de- the bride.
 The room was staStefully arranged in profusion of lovely June roses, and sweet peas were the flowers in hand. Immediately following the ceremony amidst the congratulations of the friends, the bridal party left for New York, enroute the Bermudas, where they will remain for short stay, and returning will visit through out the states before taking up their residence in St. John, N. B. The groom is the only son of the late Captain Haines of Nova Scotia. and the bride Is the eldest daughter of c. M. Abercrombie, head of the Hem stich Machine Department of the Singer Manufacturing Go. of Bridge port.

doubtless inevitable, but it has been overcome with great profit to both employer and employees where it has been recognized as seriously demand ing solution. Society and industry need only the necessary incentive to secure great reduction in irregular ity of employment. So far as is ir- remediab1e 1t should be compensated for like the inevitable accident.
 The huge fire waste in America is a matter of common knowledge. The loss in 1910 was estimated at $234,- O00, 1000; and yet there is one class of property in its nature peculiarly sub- ject to fire risks which was practical ly immune. Some 2,600 factories and their contents, aggregating $2,220, O00, 900, lost only one-fortieth of 1 per cent. The factories so immune were those own ed by members of the so-called fac tory mutuals'' of New England. The cost to these factories for fire insur- ance and fire prevention in the year 1910 was only 43 cents for each s1, 900 of property insured. Fifty years ago the cost of insurance to the New England factories was ten times as great.
