Court Divided.

The supreme court was divided in
rendering its decision. Justice Samuel
X Thurman writes the prevailing
opinion in which Chief Justice Il. Il.
Corfman concurs. This follows the de-
cision of some other states, to the eff
feet that person engaged in thresh-
ing is "A farm laborer." The Califor-
mia commission, for example. had re-
marked that surely the man who
years ago threshed grain with fail
was doing farm labor just as much az
the man who Graded the grain" and
hence decided that the use OF ma
chine instead of fail made no par
ticular difference.
1T IL not necessary" writes the SUI
preme court, lin the present case, nor
Is II our intention. TO 20 to the extent
that some OF the cases have gone. We
hold. however. that In the case at bar,
the commission itself having found
that the owners of the machine pur-
chased the same primarily for the
purpose OF threshing their own grain
and used II principally for that pur-
pose, such primary purpose becomes
controlling in determining the nature
and character OF their business within
the meaning Of the industrial act"
Justice J. T.. Frick. in concurring
"unhesitatingly' in the prevailing op-
inion. goes step farther. His opin-
ion reads in part;
The legislature, in making It's clas-
sifioation, has, however, used the COM
prehensive term OF agricultural lab
! ors' In referring to the class now un-
der consideration, while In referring
to the class engaged in domestic SER
vice II has used the restrictive term of
domestic servants All are aware
that one may be engaged in house
and window cleaning without being q
domestic servant, while we also know
that one cannot be engaged in any
kind OF farm work without becoming
an agricultural laborer. That tern
would apply even to an Independent,
contractor engaged In farm work"
To such stand. Justice Valentin,
( Gideon strongly dissents, and he an
nounces that Justice A. j. Weber con
ours in the dissent Justice Gldeor
writes in part:
t II am OF the opinion that by tn,

SAYS 1T WAS HIS PARTNER.

"On complaint of Arthur Corbin OF
Norwalk, o., detectives from head
quarters late last night arrested Rem
frew Burns. real estate dealer of this
city at his home in Norwood. The
charge is grand larceny. and the com
plaint states that Burns sold property
"n Vine street belonging to Mr.. Cor
bin to the value of $500. and that
when Mr. Corbin arrived at the city
yesterday and asked Burns for his
money the latter told him his partner
had abseonded with II.
Subsequent to his arrest Burns ad-
mitted that he had handled the prop
erty OF Mr.. Corbin. and that knowing
Mr.. Corbin was coming to the city
yesterday. he had drawn the proceeds
of the sale from the bank and put
the package into the safe in his office.
He says that Alexander Stewart.
who as partner conducted n branch
of the real estate business In Cleve-
land. and who was at the office to meet
Mr.. Corbln. whom he had never seen.
and to discuss an extension OF their
business. took the money.
.He claims that when he went to
lunch he left his partner looking over
some papers In the safe. and that upon
his return he could find no trace of
either Stewart or the money.
Burns describes the man as being
tall and large In figure. with dark hair.
beard and eyes. and OF a swarthy COM
plexiou. but as none of his associates
had ever heard Of Burns having
partner. and as he can produce no wit
ness to bear out his story. the police
are inclined to doubt the identity Of
this Stewart. although upon Burns de-
scription a general message was sent
out for his detention.
Burns said he never mentioned
Stewart here. as their idea was to in
terest more capital separately In each
city and to publicly consolidate after.

1t didn't help much when. on account
OF his straitened circumstances. he had
