THE QUEER FELLOW

Since last January when the dry law went into effect in Seattle, the authorities there haFe been busy destroying property of lntractors oL law. In many instances those who took part In the destruction of the property have been hailed into court but invariably were liberated be- cause of the law that was enacted for their pro- lection ia such cases. If a man was found guilty of violating the dry law he was not only punish ed but his property was destroyed. Things .nanimated things at that; things that were ln- 1ocent of any wrong doings were broken to pieces with axes and other instruments. Ii the Gouor alone had been destroyed it wouldn't ap- pear so bad; although the liquor has no more to do with the violation of the law than has the furniture. still the liquor itself constituted the violation of the law: but chairs, mirrors and all other furniture were destroyed, and the law pro- tects the destroyers. Mayor Gill was behind the whole business.
 In Everett, in order to get rid of the w. M the city authorities passed an ordinance prohlo- ting speech-making on the streets. Not long ago. the l. N. W. refused to recognize the vald- itv of the law and went back with the intention of making speeches.. On their arrival there from Seattle they were met with strong resistance by the authorities and citizens of that city which resulted in the killing of several. Mayor Gill comes out with the statement that the citizens of Everett are towards; that they enacted an un- just law and all that kind of trash.
 Now. if Mayor Gill can consider an infractior of law in Seattle justification for the destruct ,on of property and take life; why can't the Ever cit citizens do the same? The latter have just as much right to keep the L W. W. off theh streets as "The Queer fellow has a right to keeE the city of Seattle dry.

The old officials want to remain m office. of course, but others want them fired that they may have whack at the government teat It. beats all how some men can be so greedy or it may be that they love the dear people so that they naturally just crave to serve them. Be that as it may be, the fight is on. They are fight ing among themselves and hell is apopping. One says to the other, "You never did anything for the party and much less for the candidates The other answers, You're another" and there you are.
 If they would only leave it to us to say who should get job, there would be no need of fight ing It's scandalous the way they carry on. And although we have offered cur services, they evi- dently fear our prejudice against democrats in general, and in particular about those around Juneau. To give democrat an office we must go to Juneau for the simple reason that there aren't any to be found anywhere else. They are all re publicans.

SEEK RELIEF FROM HIGH

Valuations Reduced.
News Times Special Service:

INDIANAPOLIS. April IA. - The
state board of tax commissioners
today heard an appeal for lowering
the valuation for taxation purposes
Of the properties of the Central
Union Telephone Co, the Chicago
Telephone Co, and other telephone
companies in Indiana.
II. w. Paddock, of Chicago, ap-
peared for the Central Union Tele-
phone Co. and urged a reduction of
the taxation valuation on the ground
that the ratio Of the 1915 taxes Of
the company in Indiana to the 1915
earnings was nine per cent. He said
he believed the ratio should not be
more than six per cent, and urged
that smaller holdings of the company
be reduced I'm similar manner Mr..
Paddock said he did not wish to
place a valuation on the property Of
the company in Indiana when the
commissioners asked him for such a
statement.
NJ. F. LOBBY, tax attorney for the
Chicago Telephone Co. testified that
his company had paid 1892 per cent
OF it's gross revenue in Indiana in
taxes last year. He also declared
that the valuation OF the property Of
The company for tax purposes in In
diana was zap 10 the hilt," and
brought figures 10 show that the
valuation now is s95a per cent of
the book value OF the company.
Members OF the board OF tax com
missloners pointed out that they be-
lieved the high taxes OF the company
came from the local rates in such
cities as Gary. Crown Point, Ham
mond and East Chicago, where tax
rates. enormously high in former
years, this year have been lowered
only a few cents on the 500.

ACCIDENT BOARD IS
BUSY WITH LABORS
First Quarter of 1916 Makes
Record For Injuries in
Michigan.
News Times Special Service /:

News Times Special Service:
LANSING Mich. April lift the
reports for the first quarter can be
taken as a good criterion of the en-
tire years business, the year 1916 is
going 10 be a record breaker for the
industrial accident board
The year 1915 was the largest
year the board had in it's existence
and for the first three months Of this
year the figures show an increase Of
80 per cent I'm almost all details.
when compared with the year be-
fore. In fatal accidents alone the
increase has fallen below 80 per
cent
During January February and
March Of this year, there were 90
fatal accidents in mills, factories.
workshops and all places where the
employers had elected to come
under the act. For the first three
months Of 1915 there were but 10
fatal accidents So far this year
up to April accidents to 4,311
persons have caused but temporary
disablement Last year in the three
months there were 2,s53 such acct
dents.
Permanent and partial disability
have been caused to 394 people so
far in 1916 as opposed to but $50
last year.
The Amounts Paid.
In the comparison OF amount OF
compensation paid during the first
three months of this year and OF
1915. there is also a big gain. In
January. 1915, the compensation
paid through the board was S99,-
942.29. This January it reached
27.779.S2. In February, 1915,
$97, O66.39 was paid. while month
before last there was paid out $780,
419.93. In March, 1918, the payment
totaled s1O1 ,6261S. while last month
they totaled s144,O15.O9. The totals
for the quarter in 1918 were $685.
614.S1, while the total this year is
S392,214S4
The board is now kept busy all
the time and with several deputies
out trying to take care Of cases
which it is not necessary to have the
full board hear. is working hard in
vain effort 10 keep up to date.
Most OF the cases which finally
come before the full board take up
lots OF time so that II is a hard
proposition TO save any time on
those contests which get past the
deputies and the arbitrators.
