FIVE REVISIONS

There have been five different re-
visions of the public laws of Maine
since 1920, namely in 1871, 1857, 1871,
1883 and 1908. A history of these
revisions was published as an intro
duction to the last revision, and Is of
much interest.
BY section six of "An Act relating
to the Separation of the District of
Maine from Massachusetts proper,
and forming the same into separate
and Independent State" approved by
the Governor of Massachusetts, June
10, 1919, it was provided THAT all
the laws which shall be in force with
in said district of Maine upon the
said fifteenth day of March next (1820
shall still remain and be in force
within the proposed State thereof,
such parts only excepted as may be
inconsistent with the situation and
condition of said new State or repug-
nant to the Constitution thereof" By
a resolve of the Legislature of Maine,
approved June Is, 1920, a board OF
Jurisprudence was established to
consist of three men learned in~the
law, who shall be appointed by the
Governor with advice Of council, and
whose duty it shall be to select, ar
range and prepare, with suitable in
dices, a compilation or digest of all
the statutes of the colony, province
and commonwealth of Massachusetts,
now in force in this State and to re-
port the same to the Legislature at
the next session for acceptance" On
November 20, 1920, Hon. Prentiss
Mellen, Chief Justice, Hon. William
Pitt Preble and Hon. Nathan Weston,
Junior, Justices of the Supreme
court, were appointed board of jur-
isprudence under that resolve, and
the laws of the State of Maine, ar
ranged in 179 acts, each approved
March 10, 1921, and repeating act,
approved March 81, 1921, were pre-
pared by them.

THE FIRST ATTEMPT

The first revision of the public
laws of Maine was authorized by a
resolve approved February %, 1887,
authorizing the Governor with the
advice and consent of the council to
appoint three able and discreet per-
sons, two of whom at least, shall be
learned in the law, to be commission
ers, whose duty 1t shall be faithfully
to revise, collate and arrange all the
public laws of this State" Under
this resolve, on March 30, 1887, Hon.
Ether Shepley, of Saco, Francis o. j.
Smith of Portland and Daniel Will
liams of Augusta, were appointed
commissioners. On June 30, 1887,
Hon. Ether Shepley resigned, and on
the 2Sth day of the same month, Ed
win Smith of Warren was appointed
in his place. October 2, 1887, Ed
win Smith resigned and on the fol-
lowing day, Hon. Samuel e. Smith of
Wiscasset, was appointed in his
place. On June 8, 1888, as appears
by the records of the council, Hon.
Prentiss Mellen Of Portland, Ebene-
ger Everett of Brunswick and Will
liam Clark of Hallowen were appoint
ed commissioners under a Resolve
providing for a revision of the public
laws of Maine" approved February
%, 1887. January 10, 1889, Hon.
Samuel e. Smith of Wiscasset was ap-
pointed a commissioner In place Of
William Clark. The report of the
commissioners last appointed was
submitted to the Legislature at the
January session, 1910, and was re-
ferred to a joint select committee,
consisting of seven members of the
Senate and 20 members of the house
of representatives. The committee
having been authorized to sit during
the recess of the Legislature, met on
the fourth day of June 1910, and after
session of Sc days. submitted their
report to the Legislature at an ad
journed session. September II, 1870
On October 81, 1910, the Legislature
passed an act entitled, AN act for
revising, arranging and amending the
public laws OF the State" which was
approved October %, 1910. This act
was to take effect from and after the
first day of April 1841. BY an ACT

night. Late Sunday night Presta was
captured by Merchant Police Officer
Louis LeGlise. At the time he was ar
rested he was standing on fence look
ing into a house in which several WON

not made heavier. 2

Motormen and others who may have
labored under the delusion that the
new ordinance regulating the speed Of
electric cars in the city applied only
to the interurban cars operating on
Milwaukee avenue, will be set straight
by the arrest of one of the motormen
running a car on the local line ON
Elizabeth street.. While the ordinance
in question was forced through the
council by the Milwaukee avenue
property owners and was undoubtedly
designed primarily to be used as a
weapon in the fight of these property
owners against the railway company,
the council had no option, if it pass
ed any ordinance at all, but to pass one
covering the whole CITY,. Any ordi-
nance which attempted to discriminate
against the interurban cars would not
have been worth the paper it was
written on. The question of the effect
Gil6 Jc0SooSC ~ o. oPOCu U1ulAdHC6
would have on the operation Of the
local line was considered by the coun-
ell at the time the operation of the
local line was considered by the coun-
Gil at the time this ordinance was pre-
sented, but the majority Of the council
evidently considered that a speed of
fifteen miles an hour was fast enough
anywhere in the city. The city is
playing no favorites in this matter and
the police will be expected to enforce
the speed regulations against all cars
on all lines everywhere in the city.

by the Kenosha chorus Mr.. Messer,

Wisconsin was one Of the first states
in the union to declare that all fra
ternal insurance societies operating
within it's borders must maintain ade-
auate rates based on accepted NOR
tally tables and it is not likely to
retreat from that position. To do so
would be long step backward and
the repeal of the present laws govern
ing the operation Of the fraternal or
CARNATIONS would open the way for an
endless succession Of troubles It has
been the aim of legislation in this
state to protect the policy holders
rather than encourage cheap insur-
ance; to demand that all companies so
conduct their business that the insur-
ed are guaranteed protection. That
can only be done by the maintenance
of adequate rates and any attempt
like the one now being made by the
introduction Of a bill lowering the
standard now required of all COM
panies doing business in the state
should be resisted by every policy
holder.

JURORS FAVOR INJURED MAN
Suit of Wladyslaw Konieczka Against
N. r. Aliens Sons Results in Big
1 Damages for Plaintiff, but One Cues
ton Causes Discussion.

The jury in the circuit court which
heard the long contested trial of the
Esuit of Wladyslaw Konieczka against
the n. R. Allen S Sons Company return
led verdict late Saturday. evening
and the verdict was opened just be-
fore noon on Sunday, Judge Belden
coming to the city for this purpose.
The jury held that the injured man
should recover and fixed the amount
Of his damages at $1,000. Motions OF
the verdict will be heard later.
The verdict which came as an end
of the long contested case was a
especial verdict and while the jurors
| struggled successfully with seven of
the questions attorneys. are in doubt
as to the construction which is to be
put on the. answer to the eighth ques-
tion and the answer. of this question
by the jury. is held by some to have
inyalidated the verdict.
The jury. found that the machine on
which the man was working at the
timefof his injury was not reasonably
safe and that this fact was due to the
negligence of the defendant company.
1t found that the condition Of the ma
chine and its lack Of proper projections
was the proximate cause Of the injury.
1t found that there had been no con-
tributory negligence on the part of the
plaintiff, but in the answer to the next
question held that his injury was caus-
ed by his reaching over cross-piece
in the operation of the machine. 1t
had been shown by the evidence, that
this cross-piece was in a way a pro-
lection for the laborer in operating
/ the machine
It is certain that the case will be
taken to the supreme court AMI that
the defendant company viii seek to
have the verdict set aside and judg-
ment handed down dismissing the ac-
i VAV4l' AhoAy PoluGo ", SlSdI6ot luI6I-
! est to manufacturers came up in con-
nection with the trial of the case and
these points are considered as worthy
of consideration by the higher court.
The principal point at issue was the
right of the plaintiff to bring the &C.
ton in the circuit court, the. attorneys
for the company holding that the mat
ter was properly one for consideration
by the industrial commission of the
state and not for the courts.
No date has been set for the hear
ing of arguments for a new trial or
for the setting aside of the judgment
Konieczka in his complaint asked
for damages to the amount of $4,000
and his attorneys in arguing the case
to the jury insisted that the measure
of damages should not be below
$12, ooos
Konieczka was injured on July 10,
1912. He had one Of his arms caught
in hair removing machine and the
arm was so mangled as to make ampu-
tation necessary.

REWARDS SERVICE FOR NATION
Knighting of Mr.. Nelson May Result in
the Danish Consulate for Wisconsin
Being Removed from Racine to Ke-
nosha--s Sir Peter Nelson Active Here.

Peter B. Nelson, president of the
United Refrigerator and Ice Machine
Company Of this city, and former may
or Of the city Of Racine, has been,
Knighted by the King of Denmark. His
patent of nobility in Denmark reach
ed Kenosha this morning and he is
B. Nelson. He is named as Knight
of Dennebrog, one of the highest
titles in the gift Of the Danish king.
On March 9Th Mr.. Nelson was notified
that he had been decorated by King
Haakon, but he did not receive his
formal notification or the insignia of
his Knighthood until Thursday.
The action of the Danish king in
signally honoring Mr.. Nelson is re-
eeived with a great deal of pleasure
by the large number of former Danish
people in Racine and Kenosha as for
years Mr.. Nelson has been a leader
among them. Mr.. Nelson is the only
resident Of Wisconsin to receive this
recognition from the Danish king.
Sir Peter B. Nelson was not ma
tive of Denmark, but he was born of
Danish ancestry in Schleswig, Ger
many, April 16, 1869. He came with
his parents to this country in 1871 and
the family settled in Racine county
near the village Of Union Grove. The
son was educated in the schools Of
Racine county and later entered the
University of Wisconsin Law School
from which he was graduated with
honors as a member of the class of
1890. He at once entered the practice
of law in Racine and later became a
member of the firm of Cooper, Simmons,
Nelson and Walker, which connection
he held for a number Of years.
Mr.. Nelson has held many official
positions. He served Racine county
for two terms as district attorney and
in 1903 was elected mayor of the city
Of Racine. He was later elected presi-
dent Of the Wisconsin League of NUM-
CAPABILITIES and he became widely known
among the city officials Of the state
for the active manner in which he
worked for the success of this organi-
zation.
Seven years ago Mr.. Nelson gave up
the practice of law to go into the
manufacturing business as head Of the
Racine Refrigerator and Ice Machine
Company. -Four years ago the plant
of the company was removed to Keno
sha and since that time it has grown
to be one of the largest concerns of
the kind in the United States.
Sir Peter B. Nelson began his serv-
ices for the Danish king in 1892 when
he was named vice consul for Wis
consin. Later he was elevated to the
rank of consul and he has been very
prominent among the Danish people
of the state since that time. Under
his consulship the Wisconsin consulate
of the Kingdom of Denmark was es-
tablished in the city Of Racine and
from this point Mr.. Neslon has hand
led the official business Of the King
of Denmark in this state. It is now
very probable that the Danish consul
late for Wisconsin will be removed
from Racine to Lenosha as Mr.. Nelson
has decided to make his home in this
city in the future.
People in Kenosha will be pleased
to extend congratulations to Mr.. Mel
son for the distinction that has been
conferred upon him by the Danish
king.
