FOUGHT BY INSURANCE ME* They W All Thair Rataa :* Employer*' Liability Law War* Pa??ad, but Bacama Quiat at Hint of 8tat* Qffariny Indemnity, (Bacram^nto (Cal.) Union.) When Wood row Wilson became gov ernor of New Jersey be found that wealthy employers bad been given tbe laws thoy desired regardless of tbe welfare of tbe thousands of men, wo men and child tan on tbelr payrolls. Be found tbat In the factories of tbe state acorea bad been killed or maim ed for life uhd tbat thsre wo? abso lutely no provision for thb protection of the famlllea of those worklugmen engaged In hazardous occupations. Be found that the bosses bad been carry lag out tbe wishes of tbe Interests, from which they bad obtained cam palgu contributions. -That was tbe sltuatlou In corrupt New Jersey, wbere tbe conditions Of labor had been notoriously oppressive and seemingly hopeless for a genera tion. But Governor Wilson determln . ed to change It and wltb his custom , 1 ary vigor tackled tbe problem. Employers' Liability Law. One of tbe reforms be effected was the enactment pf a, strong employers' liability law. ? But for this he had to fight wltb tbe aame grim ana un swerving purpose that had obtained the Geran primary election law. After the bill bad beeif Introduced In the leg lslffture and became known as one of the governor's measures the insurance companies sent representatives to the capltot and through them threatened reprisal. "If you enact such a law we'll raise the rates on all Insurance throughout 'the state. We'll pile them* up on everybody." they oBut?tb* bluff didn't work. ?; ' / "Very well, gentleman, m k you. please," replied Governor Wilson, "but remember that If you try anything of that kind It may be necessary *for tit to establish a system of state thsur, a nee." After that tbe tntranL&e xton* panles decided that silence : better part of wisdom. A 1 The employers' liability .'U^'-was' passed$>nnd an apparently fair statute It is, essentially fair to the employer as well aa to the employee, for wod row Wilson Is not a demagogue who 'fflayg for tabor's support. He merely believes In justice to tbe whole people within the authority of his office; Prevents Long Litigation, Tbe law prescribes the liability of ah employer to make compensation for in-' Juries sustained by an employee. In the course of employment It establishes an elective schedule of payment and strictly regulates the procedure for de termining. the liability and compensa tion. : it relieves., an employee who is Injured of. the necessity < of instituting suit to obtain damages by providing a definite schedule covering the differ ent classes of injuries and fixing /tbf$r employer's liability for each. Employers now regard the law aa. fair because under it they can calcu late with reasonable certainty what their maximum liability for any one: year will be instead of leaving this to be determined by Jurors. Employees are greatly benefited- by It because in case of accident It secures to them without delay a fixed income at a time when money, is most', needed and be cause it avoids long drawn out litiga tion, with its attendant expense and suffering. Ren! 8?rvio? to Labor. Governor Wilson meant It for both. He supplemented it shortly with a law compelling the erection of Ore escapes on all factories and buildings houslrig a number of employees? not op* or two spider ladders,' bat equipment suffi cient to prevent a recurrence In New Jersey of the horrors that had Shocked the people of the New England maniti factoring cities. ? x." ^ Such laws ere worth something to labor. They reflect the opinion o i a man who believes in the honesty of la bor's purpose to .the extent that he holds labor above seeking selfish 1 or undue advantage. As they were en acted tbey represented steps In Wil son's restoration of New Jersey's gov ernment to the people. ' Tbey wrote genuine reforms into, the statute books ? Lake wood (N. M.) Progress: "It is a significant fact that about three fourths of the small, Democratic and progressive newspapers of the country are for Wo^drow Wilson, and all of the Republican-papers are doing every thing in their power to defeat his nom ination fftr the presidency.

Tho Gospel of Jesus magnifies the Jewish Law by admitting Its righteous ness. Tne proposition of Jesus In re spect to His followers is this: Ho, being perfect, waa able to keep the Mosaic Law perfectly, and had a right, therefore, to everlasting life, and need ed not to have died; but Instead of re taining His life He laid it down sacrl flelally, as ,a part of the great Divine Plan for huinau redemption. That sac rifice will bring to the world the bless ed opi>ortuntty for eternal life which, It bas been promised, Messiah's King dojm will bring. But meantime the Re deemer, carrying out; Jehovah's plans, 'offers an Imputation of His merit to aqy who have His spirit of full conse cration to do the Father's will by lay ing down the presettt life sacrlQclally, t<? gain with the Redeemer a heavenly, spiritual life, glory, hqpor, Immortal ity, the Divine natity$, *)?

Sftese disciples of Jesps sacrifice ttiefr earthly Interests and rights and thus become reckonedly dead to earth ly things. God accepts their sacrifices and fcegets' them of the Holy Spirit Thus they* become New Creatures In Christ But, how .could God accept a blemished offering? and are not these New Creatures held responsible for the conduct of their flesh, so long as they llve~-untll their Sacrifice Is completed? The Scrlptpres answer. The great High Priest, who presents these offer ing ^;jtaH!Oj? Hfe own sacrifice, cov< ers their imperfections by an Imputa tion of the merit of His own.sacrlflce, which is already in the hffiias of Jui: tlce waiting for application oi^behalf of the sins of the world. When t$Ts High Piiest thus presents us to God, covered with His own merit as a robe, we are assured that tho sacrifices are "holy and acceptable unto God-* As for subsequent weaknesses of the flesh, the NeW. Creature is Indeed held responsible for .'its mortal body, but since our High Priest tasted death .for every man and for all sins of heredity, therefore these New Creatures in Christ are assured that all their tres passes, of ignorance, or weakness, may be forgiven, and that the Redeemer, their Head and Representative in glo ry, Will, upon application. Impute His merit for the canoelatlon of such Im perfections, that they may be main tained In their standing, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing." The PHsrieeMf tudsrd Lower. The Pharisees prided themselves on their ceal for the Law and found fault with Jems' disciples and with Himself for beating the Blek on the Sab bath.
