Workmen's Compensation Act a Dep
rivation Of Remedy Against Third

According to the decision Of the Wash
ington supreme court, in Peet VS.. Mills, 1876
Pacific Reporter, 6S5, the workmen's COM
pensation act Of that state superseded all
former statutes relative to the recovery by
a servant for injuries occurring in the
course of his employment, and no exist
Ing law gives the employe a right OF
action for such injuries against any per-
son other than his employer.
The same question arose in Northern
Pacific Railway company VS.. Mary A.
Messe and the same statute was con-
strued. The case was instituted in the
United States district court of Washing
ton, d. d. (2o6 Federal Reporter, 222).
Benjamin Meese, while engaged in his
Germ. was killed through the alleged negli-
gence of the railroad company. Demurrer
to the complaint on the ground that the
workmen's compensation act gave a right
sustained. This Judgment was reversed
by the United States circuit court of ap-
peals, H1 Federal Reporter, 254.
The United States supreme court in SO
holding of the latter court, and upholds
the ruling of the district court, Justice Nc
Reynolds stating: 1T Is settled doctrine
that federal courts must accept the con-
by its highest court"
The opinion Of the Washington supreme
court in the Peet case, SUPRA, is quoted
at length. An excerpt therefrom follows:
~ NAAAo NRRNN w ~AS NbSAA NCAAtN w
on to review the workmen's compensation
act Of 1911 claws 1911, C. "a, p. 345, 3 Rem.
& Bal. Code, s. cool ct seq.), under APP
pellant's contention that the act is appli-
cable only where ecovery is sought upon
the ground of negligence of the employer.
'"* The conclusion Is evident that, in
the enactment Of this new law, the legis-
lature declared it to be the policy of this
state that every hazardous industry with
in the puryiew of the act should bear the
burden arising out of injuries to its en-
ployes; and that II was the further policy
of the state to do away with the recog-
nized evils attaching to the remedies un-
der existing forms of law and to substi-
tute a new remedy that should be ample,
full, and complete, reaching every injury
sustained by n workman while en-
ployed in n such industry, regardless
Of the cause OF the injury or the negli-
gence to which It might be attributed.
- To say with appellant that the in
tent of the act Is limited to the abolish
ment Of negligence as a ground of action
against an employer only is to overlook
and read out Of the act and its declara-
ton of principles the economic thought
sought to be crystallized into law-that
the industry itself was the primal cause
Of the injury, and, as such. should be
made to bear its burdens"

IRON POSTS SUPPORT WIRE
German Idea That Makes Their
Trenches Only a Little Way From
Being Impregnable.

In the Atlantic Monthly Mr.. Edward
MOrlae describes a very clever i'm
provement the Germans have made in
their barbed-wire dcfenses. The
wires are usually fastened to wooden
posts, of course, but the Germans lave
found Il better support for them. He
writes:
After we had taken the German
trench, our men set to work to remodel
ii, shifting the parapet to the other
side, building little outpost trenches
n setting barbed wire. The latter
job was done in Il wonderfully short
time, thanks to German thOrOughness.
For the wooden stakes to which the
wire is tied they had substituted soft
iron rods, lhree-quarters Of an inch
thick, twisted five times in the shape
Of Il great corkscrew. This screw twist
ed into the ground exactly like a cork
puller into q cork. The straight part
of the rod, being twisted upon itself
down and up again every ten inches,
formed six or seven small loops in Il
height of about five feet. Into these
eyes the barbed wire was laid and
SOlidly secured with short lengths of
tying wire.
First cutting the tying wire, we lift
ed the barbed wire out Of the eyes,
showed n small stick through one, and,
turning the rod with the leverage of
the stick, uSncrewed it out Of the
ground, and then, reversing the proc
ess, screwed it in again. The advan-
tage Of this rod is obvious. When a
shell falls in the midst of this wire
protection, the rods are bent and twist
ed, but unless broken off short they
always support the wire, and '
after Il severe bombardment present a
serious obstacle to the assaulters. In
such case wooden posts are blown to
smithereens by the shells, and when
broken off they let the wire fall fiat
to the ground."
