new COMPENSATION Law IS
BOON TO GOVT EMPLOYEES
Much Broader. In Scope Than the
Law of 190S-Applies to All
Employees.

The new law tapproyed Septem-
Der Z, 1870 providing for compen-
sation for Government employees in
jured in the course of their duties,
is quoted in full in the October Rec
lamation Record This law is much
broader in scope and much more
generally applicable than the law
passed in 1908.
There is another very important
difference between the two laws I'm
der the 1908 law the injuries were
paid for out of the fund under which
the employee was working, thus in
creasing the cost of the work. Dur
ing the construction of the Lahontan
dam, for instance, payments to en-
ployees for injuries amounted to
more than $4,000 which correspond
ingly increased the cost of the dam.
Under the new law, however,
things are different. The act approp-
rates s500,000 for a special fund
from which to pay for all injuries,
thus relieving the other appropria-
tions of the burden. This is di-
rect benefit to Reclamation projects
constructed or operated by the Gov
ernment, as it provides for the pro-
lection of laborers. mechanics and
other employees without cost to the
water users.
Another advantage of the new law
is that provision is made for pay
ment in case of injuries resulting in
feasibility for more than three days.
Under the 1908 law no payment was
made for injuries resulting in disa-
bility for less than 15 days.
The new law also provides for
medical and surgical attention in
cases of injuries. Nothing of this
kind was included In the benefits
under the old law.
One of the most admirable feat
ures of the new law Is that it ap-
plies to all employees. The 1908
law Disseminated in favor of "arti-
sans and laborers" due, no doubt, to
pressure from labor unions. Under
this law no other employees were
entitled to benefits, but the act ap-
proved by President Wilson on Sep
tember gives protection to all en-
ployees of the government

ADVANCED
FOR SUGAR
BEETS
Local Growers Will Benefit BY In.
crease of Fifty Cents On Each
Ton.

Tie Nevada-Utah Sugar Company
has voluntarily advanced the price
to be paid for sugar beets in 1917 to
S6 per ton, instead of SO cents less
as promised when the acreage in this
vicinity was signed up. The greA
demand. which cannot be fully sup
piled because of the closing of vari-
ious foreign markets that have here
tofore had an exportable surplus,
has definitely assured higher prices
for the refined article for some time
to come. This is the second advance
by the factories in four months, and
the grower gets the benefit as II Is
made for next seasons output. The
price scale given in a letter from the
company's president follows:
For beets polarizing Is per cent
or more, $500, for beets polarizins
Il per cent to 14.99 per cent, S5.75,
for beets polarizing II per cent to
1893 per cent, $3.50. This in addi-
tion to the freight No doubt, the
farmers who have contracted with US
will be glad of this change as it
means a positive guarantee OF $500
for practically ali of their beets,
whereas the sliding scale that was
to go into effect, as per contract
signed, the farmers would have to
have 1850 per cent beets which Is
high for new district. We certain
sly hope this will act as an incentive
to the farmers to do fail plowing
and to increase their acreage. as
much as possible
The effect of this announcement
will probably be an increase OF
acreage by those who have signed
for the minimum, and lead others
who ala not at the first canvass to
enter into contracts on the new basis.
1t should mean $4,000 more to
Churchill county farmers, if not a
larger figure.

FENCES GO hang.

Congressman Roberts Is esF'-

he IS In localities where the

he was from Nevada and real
tied II was the proper course
to pursue; good politics.
Roberts always has an eye
out for those fences.
II 1t was well to have rep
resentatiYe in congress who
voted part of the time with the
observation-disclosures they were
right and nc couldn't political
ly afford to do otberwise--how
much better it would be to
have a Nevada Democrat there
who would vote always with
the right and for the benefit of
his State--on principle. =
If Il. r. Caine is sent to con-
gress. as now appears morally
certain he may be relied upon
to "stay with the job" when
important measures are TO be
voted upon and SO far as his
political fences are concerned,
his democratic neighbors viii

havc made most unusual rec
ords; Pitsnian in the senate

ator Pittnan, because of mis-
eminent fitness, secured corn-
mistee assignments Of moro I'M
portanee TO this State than any
other Nevada senator ever did

San Diego scored similar sue
cess on his winning personali-

wafded with second term and

election. He Is entitled to il,

more for his district than Sen
ator Pittman has done for Ne

Pit,man is in position to Go
more in a second term than he
did in his first and Neyada
needs those services.
Even if Sam Plat was elect

yada would not be recognized
by that party in first term as
is has been by the democratic

other men of more ability and

Tor as the educational end is con-

The University should be one of the

Business methods in securing the
necessary financial support, and bus

GOOD PRICES ASSURED FOR
CHURCHILL COUNTY POULTRY
About 5000 Turkeys Have Been Con-
tracted For-Balance In Good
Request.

Charles Mccullough, of TIE Me-
Cullough Provision Co., San Francis
! co and Petaluma came here last Fri
day and invited the poultrymen and
farmers of this vicinity to bring in
their supplies and get spot cash, in
stead of consigning to commission
houses as heretofore. This firm has
large outlet for poultry, among
other items being government con-
tract to ship 1900 turks to the army
In the Philippines. In this short
space of time he has either bought
and shipped or contracted for the
birds necessary to fill this contract
and will close his pickery here next
Friday night for the time being, but
will return about the middle of No
vember, when he will be in the mar
ket for Thanksgiving supplies
Mr.. Mccullough wishes to thank
the local farmers for their prompt
response to his invitation and for
their care in selecting choice, well
fattened birds.
The prices paid ranged from 90
to 22 cents, live weight and 23 to
"a cents, dressed, according to quail
ity.
C. A. Yordi, representing O'Brien,
Spotorno & Mitchell of San Francis
co recently spent nearly two weeks
in this vicinity visiting all the prom
inent poultry raisers in this entire
section. He offered 22 cents alive,
or rs cents dressed for all choice
stock and contracted for the deliv-
cry of 1000 turkeys about November
is, for the Thanksgiving trade. He
also secured pledges for consignment
of 1900 in addition to his firm. He
also bought and shipped about 600
chickens. paying cash.
On all his contracts where desired
he paid a cash deposit and has as
sured the farmers that he will take
all they have to offer up to January
/, on the same price basis, for fat,
prime stock. Mr.. Yordi will be here
about November 15 to receive and
ship the poultry contracted for. All
deals are for spot cash on delivery.
Several thousand dollars have al
ready been paid to the ranchers and
