FAVORED El W
Special Dispatch.
Austin Tex. Sept. 7. —Representa-
tive S. H. German will introduce bills
at the regular session of the legislature
providing for a new employers’ com
pensation law to take the place of the
present methods of adjustment where
employes are injured in the discharge
of their duties. In a rather lengthy
statement given out yesterday he quotes
Colonel Roosevelt's utterances on this
plan which has been adopted in New
York state and much discussed in Tex-
as.
The idea is to have some compensa-
tion fixed for damages and avoid dam-
age suits.* An attempt was recently
made to have the laboring men of Texas
endorse this idea.

FORMER RECTOR DROPS
IN AND MAKES ADDRESS
A reunion tervice of all past and present
Supils of St. Mark'a parish was held Sud-
ay morning niftier the auspirea of the Sun-
day school association recently organised
bvt which has already awakened a deep in-
terest in the school. The church was well
filled and the service was a most inspiring
and interesting one. Rev. John William
Jones a former assistant rector through
whose efforts the school has grown to its
present proportion made the address which
seemed eminently fitting as it was not
known at the time the service was planned
that Mr. Jonea would be in the city. He
prefaced his sermon with a few remarks of
his past labors with the members of this
parish of how it made his heart respond
with gladness to again be among them after
an absence of seven years. His teat “Be
ye faithful unto death and I will give you
a crown of life/’ Revelations. 11:10. The
tome “To Make Good’’ was clearly demon-
atrated throughout as the speaker admonish-
ed his hearers in the Christian business so-
cial and home ife to stand before the Al-
mighty not as a falsifier but in true sacri-
fice for the cause of Christ to keep their
vow and aerve Him al! the days of their
lives. A touching tribute to the memory of
Dean Richardson with whom he labored
and the fruits of whoae good work have been
manifested in this parish was paid by Mr.
Jones. The communion service followed the
aermon. and numbers of friends gree“d each
other afterward as others who will go away
to college said goodbye. Mr. Jones with his
family left today for his home in Council

lette has been ill all during the cam-

by McGovern was also nominated by a
safe majority. “Insurgent” congress-

president at the last republican conven-
tion.
In a statement today Senator LaFol-
iette in explanation of the overwhelm-
ing defeat of the standpat element said:
“It shows the people are awake to their
interests and determined to restore a
representative government. Thin splen-
did victory is nothing personal. It is
a declaration of the people they choose
to rule themselves and will no longer
suffer themselves to be dominated by
the special interests.”

PLAIN WORDS ON
INSURANCE BILL
During Debate on Bill Proposed
By Davis and Ray Words
are Not Minced.
(By Macmillan).
Special Dispatch.
Austin Tex. Sept. 7.—Some plain
words about the new insurance bill
were uttered in the house yesterday
during the debate upon the bill pro-
posed by Davis and Ray.
“Your bill would only make the in-
surance law we have passed a bigger
faree than it is” said Terrell of Bexar.
“How sol Will you explain to me
how they conflict!” demanded Davis.
“Why certainly” responded Terrell
“I should be glad to. In the first place
the law we have passed provides for a
‘maximum specific rate’ and beneath
that the insurance companies may dis-
criminate all they please. Now you
come along with your bill and propose
that the insurance companies shall bo
cheated out of the victory they have
won. Your bill presumes to declare that
they shall not unjustly discriminate.”
“Well they tell me in the attorney
general's office that the two bills do
not conflict.”
“They do” repeated Terrell “they
conflict directly for you say that the
companies shall not discriminate which
is just what we have given them the
privilege to do.”
During this debate in the house both
Davis and Ray urged the passage of
their bill upon the ground that the bill
already passed and signed by the gov-
ernor will bring a tremendous protest
from the people when it is tried upon
them. It cannot be tried for ninety
days however as the emergency clause
failed.
Agree It's Only a Makeshift.
All the speakers upon insurance dur
ing the debate seemed to agree that
the bill that has been passed and sign
ed by the governor is but a makeshift
and an experiment and must certainly
be repealed' and a new law passed at
the regular session.
Vaughan told the house that all legis-
lation is compromise but he might
have added that some of it is not an
unconditional surrender to a trusted sen-
ate true to the trusts.
As might have been predicted the
Davis-Ray measure was defeated as
promptly as the parliamentary rules
would permit. The house would have
none of it. _ . . ..
Rav argued the bill at great length.
Thad' Adams of San Antonio rose and
called the speaker's attention to the
sleepv members.
“The other day I was accused of
slumbering while the member now on
the floor was talking’ said Adams
“and I wish to inform him that other
members are now sleeping.’
“That's all right’ said Ray as
long as you are not asleep I can pro-
ceed with my argument.”
Rav said his bill which is designed
to put the insurance companies unde
the anti trust laws was
essary. “if the state is to be rescued
from socialism.” .
What Rav calls “socialism” is state
control of insurance companies as pro-
vided bv the bill which has passed an

TENDERED BANQUET.
Because the employes worked hard
and faithfully in getting out 2000
boxes of macaroni that the car load
might be shipped out yesterday the
management of the Southern Macaroni
company Guadalupe and South Medina
streets tendered them a banquet last I
evening at the factory. Several of tho I
directors of the company attended and
the event proved very pleasant.
The feast was given under the super-
vision of A. Battaglia president and
general manager of the company. Tho
Southern Macaroni company despite
the fact that it is but thirteen months
old and is splendidly equipped with
neoessary machinery is taxed to sup-
ply the demand made upon it for its
goods consisting of macaroni spag-
hetti vermicelli noodles thimbles and
fancy soup pastes. The company occu- I
pies a large two-story brick structure [
with basement and the product is
made under the most sanitary condi-
tions.
