At the time of the adoption of the
common law rules of liability, indus
trial conditions were different from
those which prevail today. The mas
ter employed comparatively few ser
wants, and was able to exercise sur
viving care and control over them.
The business carried on then was
comparatively small with that carried
on now. Most of the work was done
by hand tools and what power used
was furnished by water or horses,
which is very simple and not particu-
larly dangerous.
When the servant was wounded he
could recover from the master by prov
ing that he had not helped to cause
the accident.
And nothing could be recovered if
a fellow workman was the cause.
When these laws were adopted they
were not unjust. But now under the
present conditions, when thousands of
men are employed by one establish
ment and where modern tools are used
the Employers Liability Laws are be-
ing adopted.
Many of our neighboring states and
nearly every foreign power has adopt
ed this plan.
A commission appointed by the
United States government to investi-
gate this matter They proposed the
following bill, which think West
Virginia should adopt:
"The first fourteen days of disabili-
ty are excluded from compensation,
but during these said days all medical
and surgical aid, including hospital
services and continuing after the four
teen days, the latter being limited to
5000 in amount, but the former limit
ed only by the time over which the
payments are to extend.

No Intervention.

WASHINGTON. Feb. lo.-Now that
the American government has seen fit
to go on record officially against any
possible Intervention In Mexico. what
ever conditions may arise, the ad-
ministration 10 waiting anxfousiy t.
see what the effect Of this policy will
be on the warning Mexicans.
AS long as there was likelihood Of
the American army invading Mexico
and esta blishing order there. the Mex
lean rioters and rebels felt . meas
ure OF restraint. They were told that
any movement from the United States
would be directed against them. and
would serve to strengthen the federals.
II the revolutionists. therefore. take
the assurance of the State Department
seriously, and become convinced that
the American peril has been remov-
ed. 1t Is feared in ocial circles that the
outbreaks will be more disastrous than
ever.
Causes Apprehension.
This has caused grave apprehension
both in Washington and Mexico City.
and advices from the Mexican govern
ment indicate the Madero admintstra-
ton is trembling for the safety Of for
eign as well as domestic interests.
Already reports have been received
Of new disorders. From Monterey
CofucS the TcpOSl tldt tue TeOctS nave
taken several small towns between
Parras and 6altillo. and that rail-
road bridge has been burned. Other
uprisings OF minor Importance have
followed In many districts. close upon
the announcement from Washington.
These may be but the forerunners Of
more serious conditions It IL believed.
In Official circles.
To Keep Hands On.r
The State Department today an
bounced the intention OF the United
States to keep hands off In Mexico in
the following statement:
Nothing is farther from the inten-
ton Of the government OF the United
States, which has the sincerest friend
ship for Mexico. and the Mexican
people. to whom 1t hopes the blessings
OF peace will soon return. which is
not, concerned with Mexico $. Internal

Of American life and property In the

no wise to interfere between the con-
tending forces. and to counsel Amer
leans to act likewise" ----
