COMMON LAW
 IS NOT 4 LAW

The bill of Doctor Boyle for the abolition of the common law doe Urine of assumption of risk is one O. the best measures which have been introduced in the present leg islature.
 Under the English common law, man who accepted employment took all the chances from defective machinery and careless or incompe- tent fellow workmen. It was the theory of the law that if man wen to work at any llace, it was his duty to look over the conditions which prevailed, determine the com petenee of the men with whom he was expected to work, and if he continued 10 work 1t was at his own risk. The common law of England was adopted in the United States on every srbject where there was no statute, at a very early day, and applied, Ulanketwiser to American jurisprudence.
 In most of the states, the supreme courts have held that this assump- Ion of risk applied to large con- cerns as we'll as small concrens There was at least one glorious eX- ception to this. In Kansas the su- preme court held that the common law as defined by the courts of England did not apply, and under that theory of the common law which contends that there is a law on every subject, although it may until the hour of the decision, slum Der in the breast of the judge, the court held that it was the duty of fhe employer to select the safest ma chinery and in engaging men for po- sitions in which the workingmen held the lives of their fellows in their hands, to choose only compe- tent men. The decisions of the Kansas court stand out gloriously among other decisions of the courts or other states.
 Everywhere the justice of the po- sition taken by Senator Roden is being conceded by all classes. It is now the theory-not of the law, but Of men-that industry should bear th cost of industry, even in the cost of human life and human limbs
 Similar measures to that of Sena- tor Roden have been passed in many states, and the mesure has never faideI in any state where the peo- pie control
 A similar measure has been in- troduced by Senator Roden in the upper house. Dispatch.

FAs1IDIoUs AUTHORS.
Campbell Took a Twelve Mile Tramp
 to Change a Comma.

lt Is surprising how punctilious some authors have been with respect even to the smallest detail Of their manu- scripts. Dickens was perfect terror and would make enough fuss over an error of punctuation to drive a poor comp" out of his wits.
 Tennyson. too. was most particular that not a comma should be omitted or misplaced. while his revisions were never finished Perhaps the greatest terror of the compositor was Thomas Carlyle. for he would cover every square inch of vacant space, both in the margin and between the lines, with minute additions and cancellations, and not once, but dozen times.
 Victor Hugo was equally difficult to please and satisfy. Of one of his fa- nous works he mAde the printers sup ply no fewer than eleven successive re- vised proofs, and the last half dozen were furnished In order to make quite sure that the commas were in their right places.
 But perhaps Thomas Campbell, the famous poet who wrote such stirring masterpieccs as "Hohenlinden," "The Battle of the Baltic" and "Ye Mariners of England" takes the cake in this re- spect He was fastidlous to degree. which fact probably accounts for the small quantity and perfect quality or his literary output It Is said that he once walked six miles to his printers and six miles back in order to have a comma changed Into a semicolon-
 But au equally careful and fastidious literary workman owed a great im- provement !n the opening line of his most famous poem to a printer. This was Thomas Gray. whose "Elegy Written In Country Churchyard" Is probably the best known poem In the English language It's first line reads, ..The curfew tolls the knell of parting day" but when Gray sent 1t to the press hls manuscript read. "The cur. few tolls. the knell of parting day"
 The thoughtful compositor did not un- derStand the word tolls" as an in transItive verb. SO dropped the comma, thinking the poet had put 1t in by mis take. and when Gray read the line his sensitive ear at once caught It's new, sustained melody. and be adopted the compositor's correction.

INoPPoRTUNE DEATHS.

Men Who Might Havs Changed His
 tory Had They Been Spared.
 Julius Caesar was assassinated when he had almost completed the task of consolidating the administration and dominion of the Roman empire, and bis death opened the way to that des- potism and corruption which ultimate ly undid his work.
 Benry of Navarro was killed when he had almost healed the differences between Catholic and Protestant which subsequently rent not only Frauce, but Europe, and William the Silent also fell when he was on the point of uniting the Netherland prov inces into compact barrier against the encroachments of Spain.
 In English history Lord Give died at the moment when be was the one man who could have saved the Amert- can colonies and kept the Anglo-SaIon race united
 But there is the case of Mirabeau. He was literally the one man in France who could have averted the horrors of the revolution. saved and reformed the monarchy aud so spared Europe the murdprous career of Napoleon and all the devastation 1t brought If be had lived ten or even five years longer the history not only of France, but of Eu- rope and the world. would have been diTerent.

SENATOR TANNER HOSTILE
 TO WHITE PASS RAILWAY

Juneau, March 24-The commit tee substitut for Senate Joint Me morial No. 2, by Bruner came up in the Senate Wednesday morning as the special order of the day. The substitute recommended that Con gress pass an act for the relief of the Seward Peninsula Railroad, by remitting the annual license tax of $lOO pee mile.
 Senator Willard offered an amend ment which would include all of the railroads in Alaska, stating that he was opposed to class legis- lation; that it would be unjust to remove the tax on one railroad that was opratcd at a loss and retain 1t on another that was running at a loss simply because one company was broke and the other rich. The Copper River road lost more in cal amities every year than the earn lngs amounted to. He was speaking for the roads of his division. The country could not develop without capital and capital would not be available if subjected to unjust and burdensome taxes.
 Senator Tanner strongly opposed tho amendment because it would re- lieve the White Pass & Yukon from paying tax on its IS miles of track. This line he said was paying a large dividend; that it was a monopoly and he was not in favor of robbing the indigent fund to allow this com pany to keep that portion of it's eX- tortion money now paid back in taxes. He read from a report showing that S1,2OO per car load was charged for a haul of GU miles.
