ance for State Workmen-
Plenty Of Questions Asked.
State workmens compensation In
surance was advocated as cheaper to
the employer and more satisfactory
to the employee, by Warren Garst, In
dustrial commissioner, at the meeting
Of the Chamber of Commerce at Des
Moines. A great proportion OF Mr..
Garst's audience were insurance men.
and he was the target Of lively
questioning after he had finished his
formal talk
In the course of his remarks Mr..
Garst outlined his ideas of what the
ultimate Iowa workingmen's compen-
sation law should do Mr. Garst be-
lieves employees should receive so per
cent of their wages when disabled by
accidents, that $3.50 week should
be the minimum compensation and
that compensation should begin after
the eighth day.
Mr.. Garst quoted largely from .
letter from the secretary of the Ohio
state insurance commission, which
told how well the Ohio plan IS work
ing out. He said that the state could
administer the insurance department
on a basis of less than per cent.
while administrative cost in a private
company runs from 35 to so per cent
of the receipts

panies for rehearing of the petition
of the borough of Butler for the issu-
ance of a certificate of public con-
venience approving the location and
erection of a viaduct in the borough
was argued before the Public Service
Commission to-day. it was the con-
tention of the petitioners that the GER
tificate should not have been issued
until the damages had been ascer-
tained and that a portion of the costs
should have been put on the Common
wealth and on the county of Butler,
and that the amount assessed against
the railway companies should have
been the amount fixed by the ordi-
nance of the borough.
The borough also petitioned for a
rehearing, alleging that the amount
assessed against the Butler Passenger
Railway Company was inadequate and
inequitable.
Argument was also heard on the
petition for the approval of a contract
between the Avoca Borough Electric

Avoca for lighting the streets of that

I'm THE YEAR OF "JUBILEE' =

The celebration of the year of "Ju-
bllee' was known long before the
Christian Era. The word Jubilee" is
derived from the Hebrew Jobel-the
joyful shout of clangor of trumpets
by which the year of Jubilee was an
nounced. It was celebrated every fif-
tfeth year, marking the half century
1t was announced by the blowing of
trumpets on the day of atonement,
which accepted authorities say was in
october, being about the tenth day of
the first month of the Israelites' civil
year and the seventh day of their
ecclesiastical year 1t was, in a meas
ure year of rest but II was also a
year of doing good, of lifting the bur-
den from the weary and making peo-
pie happy. The land was to lie fallow
and rest but even this requirement
carried with II the promise of great
er fertility in years to come; but the
greatest purpose of the year of Jubi-
lee seemed to be to bring happiness
to the hearts of the people. Mortgag-
ed lands were to revert back to the
original inheritors or their descend
ants. Israelites who had been sold for
debt or had sold themselves because
they were too poor to provide for
their families, or upon whom the yoke
of bondage had been placed for any
cause, were given their freedom
