Il am much disappointed In the &C
ton Of certain members OF the Senate
In regard to the compensation and In.
dustrial law.
Il feel much like . cashier Of bank

that one more than the majority Of the
bank directors decided in meeting Of
the night before to wreck the bank.
III they had opposed the compensa-
tion and Industrial bill upon the ground
Of principle would have much more
hope for them, but when many Of these
senators agree that what we are try.
ing to do IL for the good d the state.
and they oppose. obstruct and seek to
destroy simply to discredit the admin
istration, I an forced to conclude that
their patriotism 10 at q low ebb.
Such senators as Billy Adams and
West. are, no doubt. opposed to q
workmen's cor pensation and industri.
al act upon the ground of principle.
have expected their opposition; but, as
governor Of the state. had right to
expect the support of senators who for
years have represented to the workers
and employers of the state that they
were for compensation act.
AS governor | must condemn sena-
tors who for partisan reasons alone
make an unholy alliance with the
avowed enemies of the compensation
law. and seek to obstruct and destroy
what the administration is endeavor-
ing to do.
This Is not a partisan question. II
10 a question in which the industries
OF the state and the laborers Of the
state are vitality interested. In the
face Of our experience, II Is a question
that we should not delay longer, but
We should manfully meet and solve.
This problem will be solved, in spite
OF the destructionists.
Il have only this suggestion to make
to them. and II they persist In their
course they will soon find that 1t Is
only too true: No one Is quite SO sure
of destruction as the destructionist
himself"

The British announcement came
simultaneously with Premier As.

Turkish ports as a reprisal upon the
kaiser's submarine warfare.

The impression was general In Of
ficial quarters that strong protest
would be made against the action OF
the allies, which was regarded as an
unprecedented step.
Officials pointed out that In the re-
prisals which the belligerents were
making toward each other there was
singular forgetfulness OF the fact that
whatever might be the violations of
international custom as between those
countries ut war. this could not affect
the status of International rules as be-
