To railroad employes the recent de
cision of the United States supremo
court relieving railroads of liability in
case of accidents the result of employes
negligence is the most startling and
paralyzing blow that railroad men have
received in a half century Five of the
nine supremo judges held to this proposi
tion and four favored the more rational
view that the operator is the agent of
tho employer and as such his negligence
rendered tho employer liable for damage
or death caused thereby

Risk Is Assumed By the Employe
Washington D C May 1G The su
premo court of the United Slates today
laid down the principle that a telegraph
operator for a railroad company and a
lireman on a railroad engine are fellow
servants and that tho negligence of
the former causing the death of the lat
ter in tho operation of trains was a risk
tho fireman assumed and was not a
ground for damages against the railroad
company
Tho case was that of Alline A Dixon
against tho Northern Pacific railroad
company for damages for tho death of
her husband C A Dixon a fireman on
tho road killed in a collision caused by
too negligence oi a telegraph operator
The opinion delivered by Justice Brew
er answered two questions certified from
tho United States court of appeals for
tho Eighth circuit as follows
First When a local telegraph opera
tor is called on specially by a train dis
patcher to give information relative to
tho arrival of a train at his station to
enable the dispatcher to formulate orders
for tho movement of other trains does
the local operator in tho matter of giv
ing such information act as a fellow
servant of the train operatives in such
sens that the master h not liable to
train operatives who a ro injured by obey
ing an erroneous order of the dispatcher
that was induced by false information
given by the local operator
The answer to this question is The
telegraph operator was under the cir
cumstances described a fellow servant
of tho fireman
Second Is the neeliirpnce of a local
telegraph operator and station acent of
a railway company in observing and re
porting by telegraph to the train dis
patcher the movement of trains past his
station which caused the injury or death
of a fireman of the company without any
fault or negligence of the train dispatch
er tne negligence of the vice principal
for which the company is liable in dam
ages to the fireman or his personal rep
resentatives or is it the neelicence of a
fellow servant of the fireman the risk of
which the latter assumes
Answer The negligence of the opera
tor was the negligence of a fellow ser
vant of the fireman the risk of which
the latter assumed
A dissenting opinion was delivered by
Justice White and concurred in by the
chief justice and Justices Harlan and
McKenna In this dissenting opinion the
view was expressed that the operator was
the agent of the employer and as such
his negligence rendered the employer
liable for damages for death caused
thereby

PUBLIC FREE LIBRARY NOTES
Our inclination at this season oT tho year is
to turn from books to nature the source of all
knowledge How much better if wo went al
ways and only to the fountains head rather
than to tho lower stream whose waters from
much wauderiut throuuh uonulous reirions be
come contaminated Books worthy of tho
name are transcripts from nature ineyare
uecessarlly abridgement They tell imper
fectly but part of the story Art appeal to a
single sent e while the thins itself speaks a
lanciuiKe that every liber understands
We who live in this new and sparsely settled
land remote from what we conceive to bo the
centers of all learniuK are kivcii to lamenting
our lo jt opportunities We too would stroll
through galleries crowded with treasures of
sculpture and painting We too would visit
flliinitrl utfl tw 4 liofn fit l tlwii Iilimt T
the east side Of i 11 their Hare of music their famous men
ami women we would near the compositions
of the masters rendered by tho artists of the
operatic stage we would see the character of
Shakespeare interpreted by the greatest actors
iu the world We would hove access to those
va t storehouses of books in which are found
the recorded knowledge of the generations that
have preceded us
The stone images of men that stand motion
less and voiceless in the corridors of tlie muse
um what are they at best but counterfeits at
best are they not imperfect even in form which
is the only aspect they attempt to imitate Why
is it they seem more wonderful to us than the
originals who instinct with life the greatest
of mjsteries we seo in our daily walks And
tho paintings mere snatches from odd corners
caught on the instant and held fast until the
colors fade how are they comparable with the
landscapes we may view from every hill top
the whole world spread out before us changing
with the seasons changing with the hours
changing with the coming and going of the
clouds even with the blowing of the wind If
vou would hear music go listen to the wind
blow through th trees the water How over the
sands the meadow larks sing 111 the fields or
on a still October day when hills and valles
sleep beneath the lazy sunshine sav if the si
lence is not more eloquent than Wagnerian
overtures As for Shakespeare why if we must
concern ourselves with the affairs of other men
should wo not feel deeper interest in the gosip
of yesterday than in that of three hundred
years ago Whj should not living Americans
appeal more strongly to us than dead English
kings What do books teach us that we cannot
better learn from the things around us Noth
ing that is worth the trouble to acquire Noth
ing that we cannot learn from natures self
Every man is given power to see and know
much that he is not permitted to reveal Can
woras picture tne green iieuis or repeat the
song birds note
Stand some evening and watch the setting sun
paint the clouds that hang above the western
rim of earth If jou aro worthy you will exper
ience a thrill of ecstacy You will comprehend
tho overwhelming splendors of creation For
an instant you may realize the glories or para
dise An unseen unknown voice may whisper
a question to which jou may believe vou know
the answer Perhaps you do Perhaps the light
has come to you Jf so be content If not re
peat tho question to yourself but to no other
man for none can instruct you not even the
most learned Not even books will help you
For you tho solution is hidden somewhere
about the universe perhaps in a budding
flower perhaps in some wood birds song per
haps in tonights moon rise Rut the secret
made yours by patient search and inquiry is
yours forever You cannot communicate it to
any living being
