HIGH COURT APPROVES |. AND R.
Supreme Tribunal Holds oreson's DL
rect Legislation Is Not Contrary
to the Constitution.

Washington, D. C.-The cause OF
direct legislation by the people won
decisive victory when the supreme
court declared constitutional by i'm
plication the initiative and referen-
dunn amendment to the Oregon con.
stitution. 1t refused to take jurisdic-
ton of the test suits contesting va
lidity of the legislation.
The opinion holds that any question
involving the violation of the federal
constitution should be left entirely to
states are found through any act un.
der the initiative and referendum to
be infringing on the rights of the con.
gress, congress must by legislative
enactment correct the wrong done.
The decision is in a test case
against direct legislation brought by
the Bell telephone interests.
For years the Bell corporation had
escaped its just share of public bur-
dens. 1t found the legislature amen
able to it's arguments" By initia-
tive in 1906 law was passed impos-
ing license tax upon telephone COM
panies. The people enacted it by a
vote of 69,635 in favor and 6,441
against
The company filed it's action in re-
sistance against the laws solely on
the ground that the people cannot leg
islate directly. but that legislatures
alone can pass laws and that the
people are prevented by the federal
constitution from amending their
state constitutions SO as to obtain
power to legislate directly.

age and condition and were evidently
drawn by men imbued with the import
ance of preserving the employers from
burdensome OF unjust liability. It was
treated as a personal matter of each en-
ploye and the employer and the employe
were put on level OF dealing, which,
however 1t may have been in the past,
certainly creates injustice to the employe
under the present conditions.
Old Common Law.
One of the great objections to the old
common law method OF settling questions
of this character was the lack Of unifor-
nifty in the recoveries made by injured
employees and by the representatives OF
those who suffered death. frequently,
meritorious cases that appealed strongly
to every sense of human justice were shut
out by arbitrary rules limiting the liabil-
ity of the employe. On the other hand,
often by perjured evidence and the undue
emotional generosity Of the jury recov-
cries were given far in excess of the real
injury and sometimes on facts that hardly
justified recovery at all. Now, under
this system, the tendency will be to create
as nearly a uniform system as can be de-
vised; there will be recoveries in every
case and they will be limited by the terms
Of the law as to be reasonable.
The great injustice of the present sys-
tenn by which recoveries of verdicts OF
any size do not result in actual benefit to
the injured person because of the heavy
expense of the litigation and the fees
charged by the counsel for the plaintiff,
will disappear under this new law, by
which the fees of the counsel are limited
to very reasonable amount. The cases
will be disposed of most expeditiously
under this system and tie money will be
distributed for the support of the injured
person over number Of years. so as to
make its benefit greater and more secure.
OF course, the great object of this act
is to secure Justice to the weaker party
under existing modern conditions; but q
result hardly less important will follow
from this act that cannot fail to men
ton.
The administration of Justice today is
clogged in every court by the great num-
ber of suits for damages for personal
injury. The settlement of such cases by
this system will serve to reduce the bur-
den of our courts one-half by taking the
cases out of court and disposng of them
by this short cut. The remainder of the
business in the courts will thus have
greater attention from the judges and
will be disposed of with much greater
dispatch. In every way. therefore, the
act demands your earnest consideration
| and sincerely hope that it may be passed
| before the adjournment of this session
| of congress.

Paris police give strict attention to

and refuse upon the streets. An abb

dropped a hundred-franc note from

sharp-eyed policeman requested the
old gentleman to give him his name

gutter and picked up the wastepaper
and opened it before the policeman's
eyes he was let of with an apology
