NEW LABOR LAW ENACTED.
Effects Nearly All Employers of Labor
in Idaho-Should Seek Information.

All employers of labor in the state of
Idaho, except those engaged in agricul-
tural pursuits and employers of house
hold domestic laborers and one or two
other minor exemptions, must secure
compensation to their employees for
medical and hospital attention and for
loss of time and wages by reason of
accidents arising out of and in course
of any such employment.
This is requirement of the Work
men IS Compensation law enacted by the
Legislature last winter. That part of
the law requiring the securing or insur-
ing the payment of this compensation
and medical care became effective July
|. The part of the law providing for
making payment to employees does not
become effective until January ! of
next year.
The official who will have the duty
of seeing that all employers of labor
make adequate provision for paying
losses sustained by their employees is the
State Insurance Manager. In order
that he may perform these duties it be-
comes necessary that he should know
the name and address of every employer
of labor of every kind coming under the
possible for him to secure those names
and addresses in many instances unless
such employers of labor write to him
for information pertaining to this new
law. Every employer of labor, there
fore, in Idaho is asked to address a
letter or postal card to the State In
surance Manager, Boise, Idaho, giving
the name and address of such employer.
| As soon as the necessary literature can
be prepared and mailed, employers will
be furnished with synopsis of the law
and full information of its application
to them.
TIE law applies to every lawyer who
may employ a stenographer, to every
merchant, every baker, barber, printer,
contractor, builder, plumber, steam,
electric and interurban railway com
pany, theatre, moving picture operator,
and to every village, school district,
irrigation district, town, city and county
in the state as well as to all others
Stringent penalties are provided for
those who fail to make legal provisions
for securing payment and, therefore, ii
becomes important that every employer
of labor, whether such employment is. OF
many employees or of but a single work
man, should see that his name or that OF
his firm or corporation in which he is
interested is furnished to the State In
surance Manager, at the earliest time
possible.
Employees, being vitally interested in
the success of the new law, are requested
to address to the State Insurance
Manager at Boise a postal card, giving
the name of their employer thus in
creasing the assurance that the names
of employers may reach his office in
case employers should neglect to write.

SUNDAY CLOSING ACT
TO he Enforced Next Sunday For the
First Time in Maysville-Only Ar.
ticles Of Necessity to
BE Sold.

Maysville will witness next Sunday
for the first time in her history some
thing she has never before been ac-
cused of being a dead town, for all
local merchants are taking heed to
the warning given cut by the Mason
County Grand Jury that all stores not
handling articles of necessity must
observe that law.
Then comes the question what are
the necessities?" Some contend that
ice and milk come under that head
but the line is certainly going to be
hard to draw and the Grand Jury Is
to make that decision. Drug stores
will be open part of the day for the
sale of drugs only.
Many have inquired when this law
was passed, thinking it of recent pas
sage but this is only an enforcement
Of an old law. Sentiment seems to
be divided as to whether it should be
observed or not but there is only one
way to test a law and that is to en-
force it and it will be watched with
keen interest.
