Attempt TO Prove Law Is: Glass
Legislation Is Frustrated by
Supreme Court. ..'

The Minnesota State Supreme court
upheld the validity of the workmen's
compensation act last Friday in the
case of Ole Mathison against the
Minneapolis Street Railway company.
Mathison was injured by a., street
car while laying paving for the city.
His right leg was. so injured that
amputation was necessary.
Suit was brought against the COM.
pany for $4,000. The company de-
INJURED on the ground that both the
company and the city came under the
compensation act which. entities the
injured to q maximum OF $40 pee
week for ITS weeks.
Math;sor refused to accept the pro-
visions of the act when negotiating
for a settlement and his attorneys
attacked the constitutionality Of the
law on the ground that mans en-
ployment may depend on his accept
ance of the act and, that employers
and employees are therefore on un-
equal footing under the law.
The courts decision in effect holds
that the exclusion of certain classes
Of employees from the provisions of
the act does not make it invalid as
class Legislation and such a distinc-
tion in law S binding upon the courts
unless it can be shown to be purely
fanciful and arbitrary.

Child labor is not necessary in this

ycernad. Bear this IN mind The only
reason for. child labor today, Isl that a
child's labor and n skill is bought
cheaper than. that Of an adult. The
effect Of this EN- ployment OF hildren
is not only to reduce wa ges Of adults.

There is no movement and no. sub
ject nearer to my heart than the move
ment which tends to do away with the
unnecessary evil-child labor. This sub
ject is near to my heart simply be-
cause I happen to know the evils of
child labor not from observation, or
in vestigation, but from bitter exper-
ience. I shall probably never forget
the day when I first went to work ;,
it was then that I realized the dis
appointment and painfulness of child
labor. I was a child-not quite four
teen-and to me, one of sixteen and
even seventeen is still a. child. The
factory I worked in was situated fac
ing a park, strange as this may seem,
for the factory districts in New York
do not as a rule, have parks around
them. However that was. the case
n about fourteen years ago. Through
the window 1 could see children play
ing in the park. Some Of them
seemed to be older than l. some
younger, but all seemed to be very
/. happy. All were playing with the
trees. caressing the grass. smiling at
4 the fiowers-in short, those children
were enjoying the beauty OF 8 sum

young soul yearned to be free at that
moment! But suddenly I felt firm
hand upon my shoulder and heard a
voice informing me that T did not
come there to dream, but that I had
come to work. It was then that I
learned the fact that even though one
is a dreamer by nature, one must
forget it while at work. One must
not dream in mill, mine or factory;
one must work, work and work. Get
up at half past five or six. o'clock in
the morning, hardly any time to

Il Twenty-four years ago when the

proposition would be a losing one for
the city a burden to the taxpayers
and a dismal failure in the end.
In every venture Seattle has prov
ed the fallacy of the argument of big
business. 1t has shown that a. city
can buy: and operate public. utilities
successfully; can give consumers a
far cheaper rate than private com
panies ever advanced. can improve
the service and still make money. ! :
