THE A B c OF COMPENSATION.

The general assembly of Maryland is thoroughly
committed to the enactment of industrial compensa.

IS one which should interest every employer and
every wageearner in the State. For the latter it is
perhaps OF less live interest than for the former for

Gestons involved are abstruSe, even the terms used

between employers liability and compensation. be-
tween workmans insurance act and an industrial
compensation act between liability or casualty insur

lie tries to understand this difference it must remain

Maryland proposes radical change in its laws
which will affect every employer and empIove en-.

another has adopted compensation law there has
followed wild scramble of those upon whom if bore

under it, what the penalties for noncompliance were

DIE States and Canada suggests how essentially uni
fled the two countries are. The line between them is
an imaginary one. They are inhabited by the same
kinds Of people, engaged in the same kinds of indus
tries prosecuted in the same general way under SIM
liar conditions of climate and physical circumstance
This INSTRUMENTATION movement of popu-
latlon inevitably must tend more and more to better
understanding between the two countries to closer
relationships to greater social and business intimacy
1t must be kept clearly in mind that Canadas great
est weakness was for many years its proximity to
the United States. Decade after decade the States
drew population away from Canada in a measure
that made important increases quite impossible 70

while; the Americans going into Canada came TO
outnumber the Canadians coming thence. But even
that lasted but for short time and it is very

THE MAIL BAG

To the Editor Of THE TINES:
The increasing number of automobile
accidents, and of seven people killed
outright by these vehicles, fmpresses
one with the Necessity of more strict
regulations regarding their use on the
crowded thoroughfares of the city.
Within a surprisingly short period two
people-one an elderly lady, the other
a child-have been run down and in
stantly killed by automobiles in the
same vicinity. When the question of
human life Is at stake too many pre-
cautions cannot be taken, and when
lives of usefulness such as Miss Collins,
arc brought TO a sudden and dreadful
close. IL Is about time that stringent
measures should be taken to prevent
the slaughter Of human being by these
death-dealing machines. Might ii not
be suggested that during certain hours
Of the day, when the streets are most
congested-say, after office hours-that
automobiles should be prohibited from
running on certain business streets
There are several crossings in the city
which are absolutely dangerous, namely
at New York avenue and Fourteenth
street, Eleventh and G streets, and ut
Ninth and F streets At these points
there is SO much congestion and traffic
that automobiles should not be allowed
10 run. Oftentimes the motive to be in
the downtown section in the evening
is one Of ostentation and not necessity,
and there is as rule small regard for
the pedestrian. Speaking from expert
ence, only constant watchfulness will
insure personal safety. A great many
times there is absolutely no warning,
and often II is sounded in such great
proximity that the suddenness and sur
prise are sufficient 10 startie and con-
fuse one, and this explains why so
many fearful accidents occur. G. s

SENATOR LEES SEAT.

If there were any danger that dangerous prece-
dent would be established by giving Blair Lee the
Senatorial seat to which he has been elected by the
people of Maryland, some excuse might be made for
delay for long hearings for technical arguments for
constitutional worries, and finally for subverng the
expressed wish of the people.
But there is no such defense. No important
precedent would be established. Lees election may
have been technically irregular, because Marylands
legislature had not had chance to fix the State
election laws with reference to choosing Senators
under them. Nobody doubts that he was chosen by
big majority of the people; it is only technicality
that would exclude him, delay his taking his seat
Similar cases will not be coming up in future 70
the Senate, because as fast as the State Iegs-
atureS can get around to it, they will pass acts for
compliance with the constitutional amendment for
popular election of Senator'S and for filling vacan-
cies So there will be- no danger of fixing dangerous
precedents.
Lee should be admitted without delay, Just to
prove that the Senate meant what it said when if
tardily favored popular election of fsSenators.

THE EXODUS FROM CANADA.

Americans have heard much in recent wears about
the great movement of population from this countr,
to Canada; Canadians are just awakening to the
fact that there has been practically as much Canadian
emigration to the United States and that at present
Canada is probably suffering a net loss in its ex-
changes of population with the States
In the last six years, according to official Cana
ga1 figures, $4,000 Americans emgrated to Can
But in the same period $4,000 Canadians
