FREE INSURANCE FOR EMPLOYEES.
Union Pacific System Adopts Policy
OF Death and Sick Benefits for EN-
ployes One Year In Service.

The board of directors of the Union
Pacific. at a special meeting held De-
cember 81, approved. effective January
l, 1917. a plan that has been long UNI
der consideration whereby every en-
ploye of the Uniou Pacific Railroad
company. Oregon Short Line Railroad
company and Oregon-Washington Rail-
road and Navigation company, who has
been. or shall be one year in the SER
vice, and whose compensation does
not exceed $4,000 per annum, regard
less of age or condition of health, and
without any discrimination, shall be
provided at the expense of the COM
pany and free of cost to the employee,
the following insurance so long as he
remains in the service, subject to the
definite regulations to be issued, viz:
First, life insurance to the amour
of one years full wages with a mini
mum of $500 and a maximum of $4,000,
the benefits Of this insurance to in
clude those retired after January /,
1917. upon pension.
Second. accident insurance covering
total disability resulting from injuries
in the performance of the employees
occupation, consisting of half pay dur
ing disability with a minimum of SIS
per week. and a maximum period of
two years, and for certain permanent
injuries resulting from such occupa-
ton accidents, such as loss of leg or
arm, the half pay indemnity to continue
in any event for periods definitely fix
ed, the maximum indemnity for any
accident to be $4,000.
Third, sickness insurance covering
both illness of at least one weeks dur
alton and also injuries resulting from
accidents not occurring in the perfor-
nance of the duties OF the employees
occupation, consisting of half pay
while the employee is disabled and con-
fined at home with a minimum of S.
per week, and a maximum period of
fifty two weeks and with an addition
al ihuciiihity VI nail wages ioT d iur-
Their period OF So weeks il it appears
that the employe has become totally
and permanently disabled for life. sub
ject to a maximum disbursement of
s 1880 OF account Of any one illness
or any one accident. All the foregoing
insurance and benefits will be pay
able in monthly installments.
The life insurance will be payable
to beneficiaries designated by the en-
ployes. The plan contemplates an ar
r%angement with a responsible insur-
ance company to issue life and acct
dent policies called for by this plan,
until and unless the railroad compan-
les shall hereafter conclude to issue

certificates Of insurance themselves to
their employees. Circulars giving full
particulars with forms for names,
ages, b~enef1ciaries. ETC.. will be issued
for the information Of all employees
as SCOT as the necessary details can
be worked out, but In the meantime,
the insurance will become effective
January 1. 1917, whether the indivi-
dual policies can be issued by that
date or not, and the life insurance
will be payable to legal representa-
tives, IL death should occur before the
beneiciaries are designated by the
employees. While the power to amend
or annul entirely the insurance plan
is necessarily reserved by the board
of directors, since It is a new depar-
tore, yet we are confident in the opin-
ion that IL will never be necessary to
discontinue It.
The object which the directors ex-
pect and hope TO accomplish by this
insurance is to afford employees OF
the Union Pacific system the salts
faction of knowing that, so long as
they are in the service, some financial
provision. although comparatively
small in some cases, has been made
for them and their families against
the misfortune of death. injury and
illness. II is a measure prompted by
good will toward the employees and
their families whose welfare is borne
constantly in mind, and whose cooper
alton in establishing the cce of
these properties is greatly appreciat-
ed.

Other men who are coming to the leg
~islature this winter have echoed the
expressions OF the governor and the
adjutant general on roads. They
promised to line up for better high
ways when they were shaking votes
out of honest hands of toll three
months ago and friends of the good
roads movement declare enough MEM
bers OF the legislature have pledged
themselves to support the %appropria-
ton bill for good roads to put it over.
s1,5O0,0O0 Wanted.
When the state highway commits
sion convened in Boise three weeks
ago it voted to ask for enough money
to meet the appropriations given Ida
no for roads by the federal govern
ment. E. NJ. Booth, state highway
engineer, is working on the budget
the commission will present to the
legislature through the office of the
governor. He says 81, 500, 900 is going
to be needed during the next bien-
MUM.
Plans for improved roads in this
state, as prepared by the federal gov
eminent. call for an expenditure of
$1S5.0O0 by the forestry department
and an expenditure of nearly s275,-
600 on Idaho highways in 1917 and
1918 under the terms of the post road
law.
Must Put Up Dollar for Dollar.
In taking advantages of the money
given the state by the national gov
eminent it is necessary, in addition
to putting up appropriations dollar
for dollar to meet the appropriations
from the government, to build per-
manent highways that will meet with
the approval of the engineers in the
employ of the forestry service and
the department of the interior.
During the last two years the state
has supervised the construction of
many excellent pieces of road work
paid for in part by the counties, and
in part by the state. Standard widths,
low, easy grades and concrete bridges
demanded by the highway commits
sion have had a tendency to make the
new highways of the state uniform.
Hard Surfacing Easily Done.
Lack OF funds has made it impos-
sible to hard surface the highways,
except in stretches, but where money
has been available for that purpose
excellent results have obtained be-
aus of the low cost of gravel.
If the Legislature gives the high
way commission the appropriation for
which it is asking. the state will be-
come a partner of the government in
building roads where trails now ex-
list. The construction work will be
supervised by the government and
must come up to the standard it has
sat.
Mast Heed Uncle Sam.
Many counties have asked the COM
mission TO consider their needs in the
distribution of funds coming from the
federal government. Because of the
immense cost, the state cannot build
all roads wanted in the next two
nize the program outlined by the for
estry department and the department
of the interior, Booth says.
In southern Idaho the bulk of the

money to be given to the state under
the terms of the post road law will
be expended on the North and South
highway and on the Idaho-Montan ma
highway in Lemhi and Custer coun-
ties.
Money to be given the state by the
forestry department will be distrib-
uted over many counties.

ASK sl,soo,ooe FOR n
State Highway Commission Abandons
Penurious Policy OF Past Two
Years.

A growing demand in Idaho fol
better highways and more of them
threatens to make some strange bed.
fellows, politically speaking, when the
legislature gets down to brass tacks
early in January.
TWO years ago, the highway depart.
ment got a meager appropriation after
a stiff fight had been put up by advo.
Gates of good roads; this year the de-
partment is asking $500, 900 70,
roads.
Good Roads More Popular.
There was but little pressure
brought to bear upon the legislature
by people in the outlying counties two
years ago who wanted better roads.
This ear the sentiment seems to
have undergone a great change, &C
cording to reports floating into the
s~tatehouse from different sections of
the state. And with the sentiment of
the people turning s~omersaults, opin-
ions entertained two years back by
political leaders seem to be doing
some handsprings, too.
The good roads issue was made c
prominent feature of the recent cam
paign in several counties, and in every
instance where bonds for improved
highways were voted upon at the gan
eral election they carried. Washing
ton, Custer and Lemhi all voted
bonds in large sums. Kootenai coun-
ty votes upon a road bond issue soon,
while in several other counties indivi-
dual highway districts are making
ready to determine by a vote of the
people how much money is to be put
up for a better system of roads.
Spreads Like Epidemic.
The better roads epidemic is
spreading rapidly through the state.
1t is making the man of wealth warm
up to the pauper, the merchant to
flirt with the farmer, the fruit grower
to know the stock raiser and the
mining men to mingle with the nestors
OF the hills. 1t is giving hte editors
of weekly papers fresh leads" for
new stories on highways and even
ministers a new topic of interest.
None has sensed the growing de-
mand for better roads with keener
accuracy than the political leaders of
both parties in Idaho. They can talk
highways from a dozen different
angles and prove their points, and
that, irrespective of any thoughts
they may have entertained two years
ago on the anne subject.
Give EN- What They Want.
The demand for good roads was
not pressing when the last Legislature
convened. This January it is differ
ent. The people want an improved
highway system. say the politicians,
and wanting them they shall have
them-so it seems.
The governor has gone on record
AT different times during recent months
in favor of good roads. So has Adju-
TAM General Moody, who. it now
seems certain, will be speaker of the
lower house in the next legislature.
