In an able and scholarly review OF
the Ohio experience with workmen's
compensation, delivered before the
national conference, Il. ]. Duffy, state
commissioners, paid this compliment
to Governor Willis:
"One of the most difficult tasks
which we experienced in our efforts
to establish state insurance fund
employers the fear that a state in
surance fund could not be admins
tered without being subjected to such
political influence as would destroy
efficiency and jeopardize the solvency
of the fund. We have succeeded very
well in convincing employers that pO.
with our work until last year, when
the governor, for political reasons, re
quested the members of the indus
trial commission to resign; and later
in the year removed, for political
reasons many of the employees of the
industrial commission. This greatly
shook the confidence of the employers
and, while it made our task more
difficult, yet we were able to avoid
any serious injury to the state in
surance fund"
Thus it appears that the workmen's
compensation law of Ohio is so well
based that an adverse executive can
not seriously hurt it, This is remark,
able when it is known that Governor
Willis secured all the votes and fl
nancal aid of the interests opposed
to keeping the workmen's fund in the
state, instead of turning it over to
the representatives of employers liza
bility insurance companies, who cap
italize the mangled bodies and bleed
ing limbs of unfortunate workmen to
the enrichment of the stock manipu-
lators Of London, England, and Perth,
Scotland. 1t is astonishing in view
of the known efforts to repay polit-
lcal effort by delivery of interests of
worker and employe to those inter
ests by the state administration, first
by legislative emasculation of the
law aided by the most corrupt lobby
Ohio ever. saw, second by the Tag
gart ruling which is now before the
supreme court and which, therefore,
cannot properly be discussed here,
and last by the assault on the indus
| trial commission which was only par
| TALLY successful.

A FOOLISH SPEECH
Dorchester post.Express.l

Dorchester Post.llxpress.)
II was reserved for Representative
Mann of Chicago, minority leader in
the house. to make the most I'M
worthy, untruthiul, defbmatory and
o0ntemptible comment upon the pres
idents policy towards Germany that
has yet, to our knowledge, been made
by any man Of prominence in public
Life. ut Is perfectly evident" he
says, that the president, as cam
paign political dodge, is trying to
work up to a point where he can get
into war with Germany during a
presidential campaign"
IL is we'll known that Mr.. Mann de.
fers to the hyphenates, who are
strong in his city and district. 1t is
we'll known also by people who have
Followed his career with casual at
tention, that he can make more
pueriie and injudicious speeches and
Ssay more things on more subjects
that ought not 10 be said than any
other Republican in a responsible po-
sition. He is an Industrious legislat.
or and fluent talker. and In his capac-
ity as party spokesman Is on his feet
with his tongue in motion much of
the time. hut he never succeeds In
impresslng his hearers with his in
teliectual integrity, and like most
men who talk eternaly. tends to de-
generate into monthly rattlehead.
We hold no brief for the president,
but must do him the justice to admit
that his chief concern has been to
avoid war, and II his foreign policy is
open TO criticism IL Is because of his
failure to assert and insist on Ameri-
can rights. There has been no day
since the Lusitania was sunk over n
year ago when the president could
not on his own initiation, have broken
on diplomatic relations with Ger
many; nor has there been day when
he would not have increased his pop
utArity by SO doing. MIR. Mann must
know this, since every other well-in.
formed person does; and while his re-
mark WAS primarily intended TO help
himself with his hyphenate constitu-
ency, II was in very bad taste.

WILD WEST SHOW
PREPAREDNESS AID
SAYS MAJ. BURKE. AGED WORLD
TRAVELLER TELLS OF ATTRAc.
TlON IN MT. VERNON NEXT
TUESDAY.

Major John NJ. Burke, who writes
opposite his name OH hotel registers,
"of the United States" arrived in Mt.
Vernon Tuesday night to make ready
for the coming of Colonel Cody and
Miller Brothers 101 Ranch show. The
wild west attraction will be here
next Tuesday.
Buffalo Bill" as Colonel Cody is
known the world over, is again in the
saddle, after having been out of the
show business a season. The Buffalo
Bill and 1O1 Ranch shows have been
combined and, with contingent of
real, furloughed United States sol
diers, Major Burke says, is prepared
to give the public an entirely new
presentation of frontier and cowboy
life.
The major, who is world travelled
and the intimate of celebrities in two
continents, is full of preparedness.
"The new Buffalo Bill show is one
big argument for preparedness" said
Major Burke. "The soldiers, from
the infantry artillery and cavalry, are
intended to show that preparedness
is just as vital today as in the days
when the west was being settled and
developed"
Major Burke had TO admit that an
other new thing in the show game
could be introduced to him-he is Is
years of age and has been in the bust
ness long time, but he said he
found out he had not learned all there
was to be known about it.
When he arrived in Mt. Vernon he
found the shows advertising car was
equipped with cooking apparatus and
that in addition to being able to
throw paste" the billposters must
also know how to cook. And more
they must be chauffeurs and mechan
les, for much to the majors surprise

doors were driven three two-seated

informed, the billposters will do
the surrounding towns aud country
putting up glaring "32' sheets and
| distributing bills.
The use of automobiles for this pur
pose is a distinct advance in show
advertising, Major Burke declares
The innovation was introduced by the
Buffalo Bill attraction when it opened
it's 1916 season a couple of weeks ago
