Northwest Grain Belt is
Paying Full Share of All
Transportation Cost, Claim

KANSAS CITY, Jan. 1.-THE grain
belt of the northwest is paying its
full share of transportation costs
and further increases would work
a hardship on the farmer, d. Ia.
Kelley, rate expert of the South
Dakota railroad commission, testl-
fled today at the interstate commerce
commission freight rate hearing here.
Kelley furnished a report on the
grain rate situation in the north
west, particularly North Dakota and
South Dakota.
81 believe the railroads would
be hurting themselves by imposing
still further advances in their grain
rates from the Dakotas, considering
the unusually high rates they are
already charging. If the railroads
must have additional revenue in their
grain traffic. the burden should be
placed on the traffic moving from
districts closer to the markets. The
long haul rates are already too
high"

ARIZ. WORKMEN'S
COMPENSATION
LAW UPHELD
1pr n,snatch 4 p w,roN


PHOENIX, Jan. THE workmen's
last legislature and made effective
by the adoption of a constitutional
amendment at a special election
held in Arizona on September 80,
was held constitutional in an opinion
handed down by the state supreme
court today.
The constitutionality of the mea-
sure was attacked in an injunction
suit brought by Alabams freight
company of Phoenix. The superior
court of Maricopa county sustained
a demurrer to the complaint filed in
the case and that action was upheld
in the decision handed down today.
The supreme court, in constituting
the constitutional amendment and the
Workmen's compensation law to-
gether held that every workman en-
gagged in hazardous or so-called nom
hazardous employment, has the right
to elect whether to be bound by the
compensation act or retain the right
to sue otherwise. This right of
election must be exercised before
injury is sustained This holding
of the supreme court modified the
compensation act as passed by the
legislature in the particular that the
law making body endeavored to es-
tablish the law as compulsory, with
out right of election on all en-
ployees in the so-called non-hazard-
Gus occupations. The decision, how
ever, did not hold invalid any part
of the law.
The law is patterned after the in
dustrial insurance act which has been
in operation in many states for sew
eral years. The act applies to all
of three or more employees other
than domestic servants and farm
laborers, unless the latter be engaged
in handling machinery.
The employer is required to give
assurance of the payment of the
compensation as provided by the
law by taking out insurance in the
state fund, in an approved insurance
company or by posting a guarantee
with the state board.
The opinion squelched the pro-
posed attack on the bill by referen-
dum by stating that the constitu-
tion of the state allows referendum
to be filed against bill only with
in 80 days after the close of the
legislature and not within 80 days
after the law becomes effective.
ION November 8, when by it's
terms, the act took effect, the per-
iod allowed by the constitution for
a referendum had long since passed."
the opinion states regarding the
matter.
Governor Hunt declared today after
he had been informed of the opinion
holding the bill constitutional, that
he would not appoint the industrial
commission provided for by the bill
until after is days had elapsed
from the date of the opinion. This
is the length of time given for the
filling of a motion for rehearing. The
governor indicated that if no motion
was filed for rehearing, he would
announce the appointments to the
commission. He has previously an
nounced that r. B. Sims, warden
of the state prison and Cleve w.
Van Dyke of Miami as appointees
to the commission. Homer Woods of
Prescott was also named but he did
not accept.

.SHEPERD CLOSES
CASE OVER WILL
OF RICH WARD
(By Dispatch A. P. wire>


CHICAGO, Jan. 7.-iWilliam Darl-
ing Shepherd was described both as
having the heart of loving father
and of a scheming conspirator in the
course of will contest today in the
circuit court, where Shepherd seeks
to probate the will of his millionaire
ward, William Nelson McClintock, Of
whose murder he was acquitted.
Probate of the will, drawn by
Shepherd and leaving Shepherd the
million dollar estate, was denied in
the probate court. Shepherds attor-
ney expedited the case when he clos
ed his testimony aSicr presenting only
two witnesses, servants in the Shep-
herds household who had signed the
will as witnesses.
Shepherd was pictured by his coun-
sci as a man who showered his ward
with love and affection without re-
gard to the financial possibilities
of the millionaire orphan.
Attorneys for eight of McClintock's
cousins and for Miss Isabelle Pope.
his fiancee, seeking to break the
will, however, described Shepherd as
a schemer and conspirator, planning
through his knowledge as lawyer
to induce the boy to draw will
leaving him the estate and skillfull1
covering his plots by remaining in
the background.
The Will was presented in evidence
and after objections by attorneys for
the cousins and Miss Pope, which
later were withdrawn, the instrument
was allowed to stand as an exhibit
and Shepherds attorneys closed their
case.
Attorneys for the cousins in argu-
ing for the contestants maintained
that the contents of the will itself
cutting off blood relatives and Civ
ing Miss Pope only an $4,000 annuity
the manner in which it was drawn
by Shepherd himself and the fact
that two of Shepherds servants sign
ed as witnesses all indicated undue
influence to induce McClintock to
sign the will, shortly after he be-
came 21 years of age.
Shepherds attorneys in reply de-
clared there was nothing to support
the charge of undue influence, and
even if there were, it could not be
taken. into consideration in probate
hearing unless brought out. by tho
subscribing witnesses. Any charge
of undue influence must be threshed
out in the chancery courts, they said.
