GOLDEN WEDDING At ROLAND.
Friends Of Mr.. and Mrs. knud Peder-
son Help Celebrate Anniversary.

Special to Times Republican.
Roland, July 14.-Sundoy Mr.. and
Mrs. Knud Peterson were surprised by
about one hundred relatives and other
friends. just after the close of the ser
vices at Bergen Lutheran church. from
which place the self-invited guests
proceeded to the home of the venera-
bile couple In the east part or town.
The occasion for this SURPRISE was the
fact that fifty years ago knud Peder-
son and Marie Jensdatter Natterstad
were united in holy wedlock and had
thus rounded out half century In a
most congenlal marriage urion. The
ladies brought baskets filled to over
lowing with good things to eat. and
the throng was soon seated at tables
under the shade of trees in the yard.
Their pastor. Rev. c. Smedal. then pre-
sented a gold headed cane to Mr.
Peterson. a gold ring to Mrs. Peterson.

and some gold and silver for then
both. The balance of the afternoon
was spent In social visit, reviewing
the years that had rolled, and many
were the "reminiscences that came -
light in those few happy hours. John
Peterson was tho only guest present
who had attended the marriage Of this
couple fifty years ago.
The marriage Of these people took
place In Kvenherred, Norway, July II.
1864. tho ceremony being performed BY
Sogneprest Bessesen. where they lived
a few years after which they emigrated
to this country to cast their lot with
many others In the land Of sunshine
and plenty. They located Ave miles
soath Of Roland. where they made
their home until about four years aSo,
when they moved to Roland to spend
their declining years. They have one
daughter, Mrs. Martha Michaelson, Of
Jewell. and two sons, p. J. PedersOn
and II. NJ. Peterson. both successful
farmers near here who with their

WHO IS An EMPLOYEE
state Busy Explaining Why Certain
Persons Do Not Como Under Pro-
visions Of New Compensation Law
Much Confusion.

Special to Times Republican,
pes Moiues. July IA great many
persons have been led to believe they
come under the workmen'5 compensa-
ton law when they do not, and great
many others are just beginning to dis
cover that they are included IN It's
provisions. The process or getting al
the little questions settled and under
stood by those Interested is one that Is
taking UP a great deal OF time Oh STATE
officials.
Commissioner Garst calls ATTENTION
TO the fact that Il large number OF per
sons who are really In the position Oh
independent contractors. DC lnoepeho
ent worllmen disposins of their SER
vices without becoming regularly EN-
pluyed, fail TO note the distinction pc
tween that kind of employment anu
others He has been waited upon py
sreat many such who make inquiries
as to their status and they are tod
the law does not affect them.
"One of the most troublesome ques-
tons" said Harry +. sampson, ASSIST
ant attorney general. who just now Is
counsel for the workmen's compensa-
ton department. RELATES to the en-
ployment of such person; as teachers
in rural or Independent districts. ths
employment of lecturers by lyceum
bureau or a chautouqua assembly, ana
things OF that kind. The law does not
seem to make an exception Tor TINS
class of servants.
On the general question If what con-
stitutes employment within the mean
ing of this law. Mr.. Sampson says:
"One can not be a workman or EN-"
ploye unless there is a contract OF SER
vice. There must he the relation OF
master and servant which Includes the
right of the employer to control the
way In which the services shall be rem
dered Notice that a contract of ser
vice is not contract for sert Ices. Inc
former constitutes one an enlploye and
brings him within the purN lew of the
law. The latter makes one an indie
pendent contractor and excludes him
from the purview of the law. Many
who are thought to be employers arc
in fact Independent contractors.
Whether or not an enploye is
workman depends upon his contract OF
employment The fact that he has a
university degree does not render him
any less a workman. The fact that he
performs manual labor in connection
with the WORK for which he is en-
poyed does not necessarily make him
q workman.
Generally Speaking, one who is en-
,loyed to exercise his scientific knowl-
edge for the benefit of his employer
business is not considered workman
within the meaning of the compensa
ton act. An English court has held
! that a skilled music teacher who gives
Lessons to Il pupil should not be re-
garded as workman. The same rea-
soning would exclude the university
professor whose sole duty is to fur
nish intellectual instruction"

Chat With Colonel Hepburn.

Des Moines, July 14.-In excellent
health, and enthusiastic over the out
look for the republican party, Senator
a. B. Cummins arrived in Des Moines
ticn and ge. brief respite from his
work at Washington
The senator appeared immensely
pleased to be getting back to Iowa
if only for a few days Sitting in the
observation car on the last lap of his
trip he remarked several times 10 the
reporter VINO had gone to meet him
upon the luxurious beauty of the fields
thru which the train was passing.
IF all the senators and representa-
tives down at Washington could come
home TO such gardens as these, we
would have less trouble getting thru
with business and getting them away
from Washington" he exclaimed al
one time as he indicated striking
Vista which intermingled acreas OF
heavy green corn with the yellow OF
shocked oa's and stubble.
AS to Argentine Corn.
You know. as l look out on these
fields of corn" he said at another time
land see how we'll it is growing,
wonder how the corn is growing down
in Argentina. We don't want that
corn to supplant our own in the mar
ke's of the world. Yet Argentina will
have not less than o0,000.o00 bushels
and two-thirds Of it will be for export
Not all of tha' will come to this coun
try but much of it will.
Republicans will win back much OF
the ground they have lost. Senator
Cummins believes. in the contests thi:
year THE prospect for republican
victories is excellent" he said. 1--WE
will probably elect enough republican
representatives to give us a majority ir
the house and nearly enough senators
to give US majority in the senate.
Il was talking to very prominent
republican from Connecticut only 6
few days ago and he assured me the
democratic vote in that state would be
almost negligible. OF course Connect
cut is a state which has been most
seriously affected by the democratic
tariff With half the people sitting or
their doorsteps it is not to be ex-
pected that they would be enthusiastic
over continuance Of the democratic ad-
ministration.
Tariff Influence Great.
"The effect of the tariff upon bust
ness conditions of the country viii
have an important influence upon the
voting this year. Whether or not the
depression is due altogether to the
tariff. the political result will be tn

Not to Be fractional.
mere compilation of this list shows
that the convention is not to be a fac
.tional affair and that there has been a
good deal of forgetting and forgivirs
going on. as to both sides. There are
rumors that large interests are to send
lobbyists here to start something. but
the delegates do not see any signs OF
it as yet.
Nothing has happened to indicate
just what will happen as to the sta,e
authorship. 1t will be settled as 4
personal matter, if left to the dele
gates. The candidates were such on
their merits. 1t is evident that Shaw
has a little the best Of it. His oppo-
nents figure, however, that unless he
gets the nomination on the second or
third ballot he is likely to lose strength.
The effort of the combined opposition
is to prevent any gain to Shaw at least
at first. But there are wise ones VINO
figure it out that if Shaw does not get
the nomination right away it will go In
the direction of Wall The strength OF
Ford and ByrneS seems to be much the
same thing and there are indications
it will not readily coalesce. But
Byrnes is very confident of winning
and apparently Ford has equal conf
dence that he has the key to the sit
uation Ellis and Wall are saving lit
tie. The prospect is that most of the
delegations will vote at the start in
accordance with which candidate got
the most votes in their respective
counties, but the nomination must be
made as a second choice matter.
