.HAINES URGES ECONOMY ON
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS

Governor Halnes has addressed Z
letter to every county commissioner II
the state Of Idaho, calling upon eaci
90 reduce the expense Of county gov
eminent in his county 1t Is pointed
out in the letter that although the
governor Of the state nay do his best
70 reduce the running expenses OF
the state. yet n the running expenses
Of the various counties are not re-
duced In proportion to the running
expenses Of the state. that the taxes
will not be appreciably reduced to
the property holder In sending out
the letter. the governor takes the
position that state, county and city
officials should all unite In an effort
to give the people Of the state an eco
nomicai government.
The governor realizes that the
county commissioners Of the various
counties have great influence in the
matter Of reducing the taxes, and in
the letter the governor states that he
does not wish to suggest to the com
mlssioners the manner in which they
can cut down the expenditures Of the
peoples money but that IN each
county the commissioners must use
their discretion in the matter and do
away with all unnecessary clerks and
county employees. He further sug-
gests that improvements are neces-
5ary, but that the commissioners
should see that for every dollar the
county should receive its equivalent
n work OF material.
A number of the legislature were
hown copies Of the letter which the
Governor has sent to the county com
nissioners. and all were highly i'm
ressed with the idea of cooperation
etween state and county officials in
he matter Of reducing the running
expenses Of the various departments
the government and thereby re-
ucing the tax rate in the state. The

Less Trouble For Employers
Industrial Commission Takes Steps to Check
misunderstanding CT Workmen's
Compensation Act

Madison, Wis, Aug. Sin prep
aration of an expected increace in
it's volume of business after Sept. l,
when the amended workmen's COM
pensation act will be in full effect,
the Industrial commission is carry
ing on a voluminous correspond
ence with employers.
I'VE are doing everything pos
sible to save Wisconsin employers
from understanding or unnec-
essary trouble regarding the new
law" said Chairman C. H. Crown
hart of the commission. I'm our
efforts to provide authentic in for
nation we are sending out thous-
snds of copies of the new act
These copies of the law contain full
explanations and every employer
should be able to ascertain from
them the exact extent to which the
act is applicable to his business.
"Afer Sept. l of this year every
employer of four or more persons
in common employment will come
under the compensat ion law auto.
matically unless he files with the
Industrial Commission notice in
writing that he elects not to accept
the provisions of the law. If an
employer files this notice he will
not be subject to the compensation
act, but will be subject to common
law liability in case of his negligence
resulting ia injury OF death of an
employee.
Domestic servants are not coun-
ted as being in common employment.
Other employees not engaged in the
usual course of the employers pro.
fession, trade, business or occupa.
tion are not counted. Employees in
a common employment are defined
as those working for the same en-
ployer in the same general business.
If an employer of four or more
persons in a common employment
does not wish to accept the prov
isions of the compensation act he
should write letter to that effect
to the Industrial Commission before
Sept. l."

tendency in that direction, The
relation of husband and wife is
such that when the former has pur-
chased an automobile for family
use, a ride by the wife in it with his
general permission is not as matter
of law the business of the wife, but
may be found to be that of the hus-
band.
The controlling question is For
what purpose was the child operat-
ing the carr" If the child was
running It for his own purposes the
father should not be held liable; If
for family purpose for which the
father was legitimately responsible
or on his father S business then the
father is liable.
A chauffeur is in much the po-
sition of son as far as the owner s
liability is concerned OF course,
as he is hired to run the car there
is more likely to be evidence that
he was about the masters business
when an injury occurred and SO the
master is held liable. but if a
chauffeur takes machine without
authorization, or even bOrroWs it
for his own pleasure and an acct
dent results that chauffeur alone is
generally held liable where he was
not in any sense engaged in his
masters business. Of course the
chauffeur is engaged on his mas
ter's business just as truly while
going on errands alone, going for
che owner, or returning to the gar
age. or testing the car as though
the master be actually present in
the car. In either case the master
is liable for his servants acts.
In this branch of law, as in all
others, it must be remembered that
the state legislature may, and fire.
quently does. pass some special
statute imposing a further or diff
erent liability on various classes,
which may vary the general rules
of law.

WASHINGTON LETTER
FROM JAMES A. FREAR, MEMBER OF
CONGRESS, 10th DISTRICT

WAsHINGToN, D. G., Aug. IL, 1913
For many weeks the House ha
marked time waiting for Democrat
ic members to report the currency
bill. Congressman Lindberg o
Minnesota, a Republican member
of the Banking Committee, told me
he has not been permitted to attend
a single COMMITTEES meeting because
only Democrats are admitted. AS
legislation has been confined to the
tariff and currency, other Commit.
tees have not been organized by the
majority party, and Members are
employed in calling on the Depart
ments and in other ways mseting
the demands of constituents while
waiting patiently for the Democrat
ic caucus to act on the bill,
Several days ago sat listening
to the tariff grind in the Senate,
when an imperative telephone call
in the lobby from Badger Con-
gresham ordered me to report at
the baseball park without delay. 1t
may sound reasonable TO leave
dry tariff talk for a ball game,
but not more than twenty Senators
and handful OF gallery visitors
were present when left the Cham
Der, whereas over seventeen thous-
and fellow citizens, including a
heavy sprinkliag of Congressman
and government officials were seat
ed at the park waiting for the
worlds greatest pitcher, Walter
Johnson, and his team mates to en-
gage in combat with the equally
famous Ty Cobb and his club
yclept Tigers.
In 4 nearby box, man dressed
in white flannel, took his seat
amidst a slight clapping of hands,
hardly enough to attract attention,
yet this was the man who had
handed a tariff wood pile, saw and
buck TO Congress. He had dropped
Mexican revolutions, Japanese
troubles, tariff and currency, for
couple OF hours OF the game, in the
role of spectator.
Striking in contrast with this
quiet reception was the wild up
