a bump which took me about three or
four feet off my feet, and then L went
to catch myself and fell over"
One of Wile's feet is shorter than
the other. The jar and the fall caused
him severe injuries.
AS in the Carstens case, the railroad
company contended that the mere fact
that there was an injury was not proof
that the company was negligent.
And this time-where it involved a
human being instead of cattle-the
supreme court held with the railroad
company.
In this case, the rule of law laid
down by the supreme court on page
sc, 72 Washington Reports, is as fol
lows:
"The passenger must assume the
risk of injury from causes that are
incident to the operation of such
trains, and when he pleads an injury
as the result of negligence in the op-
GRAFTON of such train, he must prove
it by going farther than saying a sud
den jerk or jolt threw him to the
floor"

that the Northern Pacific does a big

AAAAAAAAAAAA~AAAAAAAAAAAAA
y lAINAarn toll rho
THESE JUDGES UP FOR RE-
ELECTION.

Imagine yourself on mixed train
that is, combination passenger and
freight train. You are transporting
load of hogs. You ride on one car.
The hogs are in the other.
Suddenly, the train lurches. You
feel yourself jolted. You are feeling
unwell. Maybe you slip off your seat
and are badly hurt.
At Seattle, you scarcely are able to
pick yourself up. You manage some
how to get home. You go to bed
You're sick
Something has also happened to
your shipment of hogs. Some of them
have shrunk in weight. One or two
of them have sustained bruises.
You go into court.
And then
You may collect damages for your
hogs, but not for your own injuries.
For that is the law made by the Wash
ington supreme court, of whom Judges
Grow, Chadwick and Gose are now
seeking another term of six years on
the supreme court bench-a law that
man rights-a rule of law that allows
damages for property where no dam
ages are allowed for human injury.
A shipment of cattle on the South
ern Pacific line to Carstens Packing
Co., at Tacoma, was the basis of an
action for damages decided by the SUI
preme court May 8, 1910.
The cattle were injured through the
negligence of the railroad company in
the method of handling them, Carstens
alleged.
The railroad company denied it was
negligent in any respect. There was
no evidence introduced to show that
the company actually was negligent,
but there was evidence to show that
the cattle were in good condition when
put on the train in California, and
greatly reduced in weight and bruised
up when they reached Tacoma.
The mere fact that the cattle were
injured, the railway company contend
ed was not proof that the railway
company was negligent.
But the supreme court in that case,
declared that proof of the injury was
proof of negligence. On page PSI, So
Washington Reports, the supreme
court lays down this rule of law:
'There was evidence tending to
show that the loss and injuries in con-
nection with this shipment occurred
while the cattle were upon the appel
lant's road Such fact could be fairly
inferred by the jury from the evidence
of the condition in which the cattle
were delivered to appellant for ship
ment and the condition in which they
were received at Tacoma"
Incidentally, it may be mentioned
here that the Southern Pacific is a
California and not a Washington rail
way.
Now consider the case of Stewart
M. Vile, just a human being.
His case against the Northern Pa
cific Railway Co. was decided Febru-
airy s, 1913.
Vile was a passenger on one of the
"mixed trains" that the N. P. runs in
some corners of the state The train
he was on was composed of thirty
freight cars and passenger car.
When the train got to Wheeler, Wash,
he SAYS: "There came from in front

Mediators Continue Sessions.
The mediating ENJOYS continued
their sessions through the day. Nei-
Their the question Of the armistice nor
the apparent uncertainty as to the
time OF the arrival OF the Mexican
delegates was allowed to delay their

close to the mediators was that there

the way of the steady progress of the
mediation negotiations.
