The Democratic Way
Seems Best

The proudest boast Of Republicans
when they turned over the state govern.
ment to Democratic officials, was about
a treasury balance of $1,000 900. That
was i'll February 1909. Three years later,
Democrats had increased the surplus to
S6, 975, 1867, nearly a million dollars
more than what was turned over to them.
And the increase was made notwith-
standing the Republicans left behind a
formidable array of liabilities which
Democrats had to pay. There was also
an enormous loss of revenue through the
abandonment Of the convict labor system
while for time but little money was re-
ceived from the liquor trai1ic-all but
few of the counties having been voted
dry early in the Democratic administra~
ton.
In direct contrast with the system pur-
sued at one time by the Republicans,
when state funds were parceled out to
little ring Of favored banks, and the
4HNNi S'I Nel lllIIS9 amounting 70 thousands
OF dollars were appropriated hy Republi-
can state treasurers, all of the nearly
81, OOO,O 900 balance, except small
amount necessary for current business in
the safe i'll the treasurer's office, has
been placed on deposit in 21O banks in
73 counties of the State. Under the
Democratic plan, the money has been
fairly and equally distributed, and every
banker has had an opportunity to get
deposits. The interest earnings, during
the administration of State Treasurer
Creamer will reach the enormous sum of |
5000, OOO
John p. Brenan, Democratic candidate |
Tor state treasurer, was cashier in this |
department when the big reform in
the handling of state money was iustitu- |
ted and he helped to work out the sys-
tenn. His election would insure the CON
.rlbution OF competitive bidding plan for |
lwarding the funds, which has brought |
such goud results.

whether or not they contribute to the
state insurance fund?
A. If any employer elects to come
under the provision of the law, he
then posts certain notices about his
establishment, which notices are re-
quired by statute to be posted, and
then # his employees continue in his
employment they are bound to con.
tribute to the state insurance fund,
and if injured or killed, they have a
right to claim compensation or award
out of the state insurance fund for
the loss arising from such injuries,
unless such injuries are self-inhlcted.
Q. What amount shall be contrib.
uted by the employees?
A. The employees shall contribute
to their employer out Of wages earned
an amount equal to one-tenth Of the
premium paid into the state insur-
ance fund by said employer This
amount is paid by the employees Joint
ly and not by each Of them.
Q. What inducements are there for
the employers of Ohio to accept the
new state insurance plan?
A. !. Every cent Of the money 80

1t is probably well that the people
voted to license the saloon. Likely they
would never have been satisfied until il
was thoroughly tried out. The reduc-
tion in the number of saloons no doubt
appealed to many. The legalizing and
making them respectable accopling to
law will make it easier to get the young,
who will point to fact that the commun-
ity regards it with favor. It's this class
the saloons most desire-they've got
cinch on dad, and his appetite guarantees
them a steady customer. But he is short
lived, and there must be somebody to
fill the depleted lines. The liquor deal
er knows the best way to get recruits.

paid by employers into the state in
surance fund goes to compensate
losses to injured workmen; whereas,
heretofore, only one-seventh Of the
money paid by employers for CONNER
cial liability insurance has reached
the injured employees.
2. If the employer subscribes to
| the state insurance fund he shall not
be liable at law to respond in damages
for injuries or death Of any employe.
N3. The employer thus, under the
state plan, discharges his full legal
and moral obligation, will not be
harassed by law suits, will not havs
to pay for time off, will have no medi-
cal services to pay for.
@. Are there no exceptions to par
agraph Of the answer just given?
A. Yes; if an employe is willfully
injured by his employer or his injury
results from his employers violation
Of laws or ordinances governing the
safety of employees, then the injured
employe or the dependents of killed
employees may sue the employer for
damages.
@. Is a lawsuit in these two cases
the only remedy Of the injured en-
ploye?
A. No; a lawsuit is not the only
remedy, and the injured employe is
not likely to sue; for he has just as
much right to claim compensation or
award out of the state insurance
fund as if his injury resulted from
mere accident.
@. Why will the injured employo
file his claim with the state liability
board of awards instead of bringing
suit?
A. In SO cases out of 100 instead of
filing suit he will file his claim for
compensation or award for these very
good reasons:
(a) From the state insurance fund
he will receive his compensation or
award quickly and certainly and the
cost to him will be no more than
two or three dollars.
(b) If he file suit at law then he
would lose any right to claim com
pensation or award out of the state
insurance fund and so trade his GER
tainty for an uncertainty.
(c) His lawsuit would be expen-
sive, much time would elapse before
it was settled and a verdict in his |
favor would be more or less doubtful. |
(d In nearly all cases the injured |
empioye does not wish to sue; for,
to do so, causes him to break with |
his employer, to lose his employment |
and to make it more difficult to get /
other employment after he RECEIVERS.
Q. What is the experience of other
states and countries where the injured
employe has either the right to claim
from the state insur1
ance fund or to file suit at law? y

Representative Harrington, of this
county, has introduced number Of most
important measures in the Leg stature
and displays characteristic energy and
ability in pushing them along. He does
not hesitate to tackle any proposition,
however; unpopular his move may per
sonally be, as lately evidenced by his
bill to place all appointments of the
State Health Board directly in the
hands of the Governor, instead of as at
present giving to the State Board the
power of perpetuating its members and
friends in power. and erecting, as Mr..
Harrington alleges, enc of the most
arbitrary and powerful machines" in
the State. We understand that the pre-
sent Board is SO constituted that six

Mr.. Harrington said today that some
of the doctors were laboring under a
misapprehension as to the purpose of his
bill. He said:
Il am not trying TO do away with the
$50. 600 annual appropriation to the State
Board Of Health. am not trying to re-
peal the Vital Statistics law. am not
trying 10 curtail the powers of the pres
ent State Board of Health. Tam not try
ing 10 change the number Of appoint
ments to which each school of medicine
is entitled at present. am trying to
ascertain what has been accomplished
by the State Board of Health as at pres
ent organized. am trying to ascertain
whether or not DR.. J. n Mccormack,
Secretary Of the State Board of Health,
has a machine or is a one-man power,
and if so, whether or not it is a good or
bad machine. The object Of the bill is
to break up the bad machine, if one ex-
lists, and to place the appointing power
OF all members Of the State Board Of
Health including the Secretary, in the
hands Of the Governor. Ny purpose is
also to eliminate politics from the Coun-
ty Boards Of Health. | am informed
that DIR. Mccormack appoints 357 mem
bers of the County Boards Of Health
without consulting the State Board. An
other purpose Of my bill and investiga-
ton is to show chat the State will get Il e
best results for the $50, 900 annually ex-
pended by the State Board of Health if
machine rule is abolished and the head
quarters OF the various health depart
