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. This goes
to sbow who the Democrats want and
whom the Republicans fee*"

that (iod's Law was unjust, but that
Israel, like the remainder of tho world,
shuivl by inheritance Adamic weak
jieese.s, which so impaired their mora)
quality that they could not keep God's
perfect I,a\y; which our Lord defined
to be whole-hearted love for God and
"Golden Hule" love for the neighbor.
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

Joint-heirs In His Klbfdpjjtt, All who
thus do will be countetf as a part of

rffljlve their blessing.
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. They were
