 The scene today in the Senate chamber was not as peculiar as a year ago, but it was more significant. When Llrimer started speaking there Were not enough Senators present to make up a quorum and the galleries were deserted. The galleries were n'ot even comfortably filled until the speech had been under way, two Eollrs and at that time there was present but Al of the 94 other Senators.
 Lorimer arose to speak today at 12:35 and wore a blue suit, small American flag, miniature bow was In his button-hole. He took Sena! Or Platt's deck in the center of the chamber but stood by it only to con- suit his notes and papers. The rest of the time he walked back and forth across the aisles, addressings the pre- siding officer, the Republican Side and the Democrats in turn.
 As he arose violent thunder storm broke. Flashes of lightning lit up the chamber and the thunder crashed over head. It was a weird setting for such a speech
 Lorimer's voice was uncertain when he started but he soon gathered strength

 Such expressions are common in Pine Bluff nowadays. Few business men in Pine Bluff realize the value of 1 the sarge circulation of the Graphic. 1 Travelling men out of this city have commented on this fact in recent weeks and many of them while out on the road, no matter how far North or South Pine Bluff, are able to read the Graphic every morning.
 President s. c. Alexander, of the Merchants and Planters Bank, recently made the statement that he was sur prised to learn that many people in many of the towns along the Cotton Belt and Iron Mountain railroads read the Graphic every morning ear ly, and that he was able to read it ev- cry day while making a recent busi- ness trip to various places South and North of this city within radius ot 100 miles. |
 Thomas Green Sr., who travels this state all the time, says that every place he goes he is able to get Ora phic each morning and that the peo- pie of the various towns are appre- ciating the Graphic and are praisne the successful efforts of the Graphic management to give them morning paper few hours after it leaves the press.
 Jim Calling, a we'll known travelling man, says the Bearden people read the Graphic at breakfast time every day. "They certainly appreciate the paper too," said MT. Calling. q learned that there were more Graph ics are being read in Bearden than all of the other morning papers, including the Little Rock and Memphis papers put together

,NDusTRIAL INSURANCE
COMMISSION OF WASHINGTON
peyiew of the First Eight Months
Operation of the Workmen's
Compensation Act

Eight months practical admins
,rotion of the workmen's compensa-
.,on act of Washington has devel-
oned no new facts not previously not
ed The general resumption of bust
rass has brought $500 employers
Under the law as against 1910, re-
norted February 1, and $4,000 en-
ployes as against 100000.
Notwithstanding the heavy ex-
nanse of complete re-audit of en-
movers payrolls in January, Febru-
arv and March, and the steady
growth in funds, claims and CORES
pondence, the gross expense of doing
business is still only II per cent of
total funds handled. This includes
the expense of office fixtures, books
stationery, printed matter, large fill
ing systems, typewriters, adding ma
chimes, etc, much of which is in the
nature of permanent equipment. All
expense of administering the law is
borne by the taxpayers of the state,
not by the listed industries.
Status of Accident Fund
The gross results of the law from
October / 1911, to June /, 1912, is
that 0,951.30 has been contrib
uted by the hazardous industries to
the accident fund and $3.50, 231.91
has been paid out by the commission
to injured men in cash and invested
in bonds to insure pensions to work
mems widows and orphans.
The accident fund receipts have
grown from $42S,057.42 to $780,
951.30; the bond reserves to guar
antee pensions from $62,716.35 to
$149,796.70, and the claims paid
from $57,329.OS to $216,435.21.
February / showed a net cash bal
ance in the accident fund of $685.
011.99. Notwithstanding the con-
slant drain on this fund this cash
balance still stands at $274,719.39.
Allowing for the increase in the bond
reserves to guarantee pensions,
which is $77079.35, the showing is
better than four months ago.
These reserves are invested in mu-
nicipal, county and school district
bonds, so that, in place of sending
hundreds of thousands of dollars out
of the state to enrich the eastern
shareholders of the casualty COM
panies, this considerable amount of
money, to the extent of $4,000 so
far, stays in Washington to aid in
developing the country and provid-
ing incomes for pensio ners for years
to come. Washington, state of
borrowers, dependent on the East for
capital, will appreciate the stopping
of this drain as the reserve fund in
creases and the need of casualty in.
surance stops.
The monthly average of accidents
has also increased. Where the aver
age up to February 1 was 675 a
month, the average has jumped in
four months to 873 a month. If this
average holds good throughout the
year, Washington employers must
FACE the fact that between and 10
per cent of all workmen employed
IN hazardous industries are being in

Low Cost to Employer


Notwithstanding the amount of
money paid to injured workmen in
compensation, the cost to employers
IN many cases is less than casualty
insurance. In Glass 10, lumber mills
and loggers, for instance, employers
last year paid from $1.35 to $3.50
per thousand for casualty insurance
protection. So far, it has cost them
only 62h cents per thousand for
eight months and the funds show a
balance of SIS, 596.19 to cover the
claims pending. Owing, however, to
al unusual number of fatal acct
uehts and, to be on the safe side,
the commission has ordered a call
LUZ contributions for two lapsed
months. The product of this call
VIII probably run the class for the
rest OF the year, thus indicating that
Inc cost of insurance to Glass 10
employers will be between $105 and

same conditions prevail in Glass 20,
working in wood.
