Anna Wilson, who swcfe out the muir.

ny convinced against her viii and
against the protests OF mother love
that the son 10 whom she gave birth,
whom she nursed at her breast, whom
she rocked In the cradle, whom she
loved with all the infinite, tender, sac.
rifcing love OF a mother, is guilty OF
fratcide, guilty Of taking the life OF
his brother. Nevertheless she Is hop.
ing against hope that some unexpect-
ed development, scarcely to be hoped
for, will result in clearing her son OF
the crime.
But, unfortunately for the sorrow.
Ing mother, the evidence OF fratricide
against Joseph Raber is becoming
stronger as detail after detail of the
crime come to light and as bit after
bit OF constantly developing evidence
is being pieced together by the coun,
ty officers.
The finding of the $3.50 in gold and
currency In the pockets OF Il, man
arrested and his actions after being
taken into custody by Sheriff c. D.
Conway in Warrington last night
while he was loading old horseshoes
for junk dealer, are all connecting
links in the chain OF circumstantial
evidence against the prisoner.
That Mrs. Joseph Raber, the wife
of the man in custody, says that she
did not know that her husband had
any money in his possession together
with the Identification of the gold and
currency as the money in possession
of Luther Raber the day before he
was murdered is additional proof OF
great importance, according to the
county officers.

woREMAvs COMPENSATION

iJ would be unfortunate t the Legislature should adjourn without passing workmans compensation act Such an act the schedules and method of procedure and other details are equitable would be an advantage to both ,he worsingman and the employers
 workmons compensation law is designed to elim- mate the waste Of costs and time between ace- dents and remuneration to the injured and to make certain Che amount that must be paid to those injured Such law would be less expensive to the employer and the injured would get more money under it than he usually gets at the end of lawsuit.
 The worzman's compensation law chat is pending be- fore the Legislature at the present time intended to meet ths situation It is also designed to meet sito@- ton where the industries are not sufficiently developed to support the expensive industrial insurance plan It is simple and iuexpensiye-n application In priuci- pie it is sound With such basis to work from it should not be dicu, ge, law which there could be no reasonable objection.
 An objection to the pending bin has been made be- cause it provides that employers or employees can elect to reject its terms The objection however, so far as n Is applicable to the employer is concerned is more technical than real because provides that should an employer elect to reject be must waive ,he right of practically every defense to damage suits for personal injuries The principal deienses to personal injury damage suits have been employers lack of negligence Che assumption of hazard the acts os fellow servants and contributory negligence Under che terms of the pending bili an employer should elect to reject the law he would barred from pleading any of these de- lenses This would practically compel every employer to accept the terms Of the measure The only reason given for including the election provision in the oll is that lawyers have held that would be necessary in order to make the law effective.
 In one respect at least che principle of the work mans compensation bl that pending before the Leg sature better than the industrial insurance system 1t would make each individual employer or employing company responsible for injuries his or its employees and thus place the cost of caressness upon the care less It would no, require Che thoughtful careful mine owner to pay for the mistakes or negligence of someone else By the same token it would offer inducements to every mine owner to take every precaution to provide against accidents Its tendency would be to prevent ae- cidents
