Probation Officer Bernstein of th Juvenile court announce that he has decided that th child labor law shall b enforced in Omaha despite th opinion recently ren dered by the attorney for th Board of Education, Implying that the law Is hot to be enforced during- the vacation mantha. He spoke to th attorney general by tela, phone and aaked th opinion of that officer aa to the meaning of tha sections of th law on which th aohoot board'a attorney based his opinion. Th attorney general declined to render an opinion at this time, but told Mr. Bernstein that should a re quest for such opinion com from th county attorney he would render one. Th probation officer saw th county attorney and that officer announced that h would Immediately ask for auoh opinion. Speaking of the subject of th law In general, Officer Bernstein said: "Th probation officer will enforce the child labor law until th attorney general or th governor tell them that It hi not to be enforced. Thla we will do in self defense. W cannot permit this law to be Ignored, because ehlldren who See this law disregarded may ses no reason Why they should obey other laws. Mengr ootn pantea are the worst offenders, for they not only employ children during hour declared Illegal, but they aend them into places where no child should go. W cannot af ford to temporise and officers of th Ju venile court will be instructed to make ar rests In a short time. Wet oan test th law In th court and place Ita provision be yond the opinion of any attorney. But w desire to secure the opinion 'of the attor ney general before putting any case In the hands of th county attorney, who is guided of the chief legal officer of the state. "As far aa th opinion of th attorney of tha school board Is concerned. It may be good law, but It la net binding on us until th court speaks." Superintendent Davidson did not desire to be quoted on th Subject, but It was ths opinion of soma members of the Board of Education that, under th opinion of th attorney, he would refuse to Issue certifi cates to applicant. Thlg would mean that no ehlldren can secure thf required legal permission to work and thnt alt employers will be placed In the position of violating th law should they employ any child under the age of 14 yeara. INDUSTRY'S TRIBUTE OF LIFE One-Half of Pit tskarx Death Tlctlms of mill and Rati roods. Th grim and tragic side of Pittsburg Industrial supremacy, as reflected in the county coroner' log book of violent deaths, is beginning to arouse a feeling of horror at the frightful cost of the wealth which Its millionaires are piling up.' When the coroner closed his log for 190 he found that In th year ha .had been called on to record a total of 2,8ft) deaths Of these 919 were the result directly of accident In' mill, mine', or on railroad,' the Industries most essential to the city's prog ress. Sufficient more of the total number Of death In the city were,! Indjreotty - at tributed to th earn cause ta make roore than SO per cent of all the death the cost tn human life of the steel and money made In Pittsburg for 100S. Appalling aa these figures are. th chance are that a new record will be established thla year. Already In th five monma inai nave eiapsea. i.uk aeatna have been recorded in th coroners' log, therefore, the solution of this transports-, and of these 844 came auddenly and vio- tlon problem has . resulted Irt a manner leptly in th mills and mine and on the eminently tifactory to thos who en railroads that jrrldlron th city. In the ' gaged In the task. The public, which pro Eame period last year, the total number of vldes th revenue enjoyed by th corpora death recorded wa 1.01.1, and those laid tlona, I not wholly pleased; It demands at th door of the city's Industries num- ' 'are not entirely satisfied. But th condition bered S40. - of that public is so vastly improvedover Whil In the aggregate these figures may what it was under the steam railroad mo seem abnormal they are recorded so regu- , nopolles, that it ta contented, confident that larly that their magnitude I scarcely real- lo" a It provldee the revenue the trc- lxed. Th average number of death re ported to th coroner I about 250 a month, and there I llttl variation from this from year to year. Comparing the loss of life by accidents with the tonnage and production of the j Pittsburg district, on life ha been snuffed out tor every to.ooa ton or coal that la shipped, and the annual shipment Is about 60.000,000 . tons. ' For every S.800 cara that carry freight out of or Into Pittsburg soms oul has given up the ghost. ' This Is ex elusive of car that are carrying freight through to other points. Every T,)0 tons of th 7,000.000 ton an- j nual production of Iron and steel have been put out at tbe cost of the life of one of the manipulators somewhere tn Its manu facture, and of the 800,000 tona annual out put of steel rails every 87.000 tons have been put upon th market only after come on of It producers has laid down hi Ufa. No other city In the country approaches Pittsburg's ghastly record of human lives sacrificed on tha altar of progress. Every day and every night th clouds of black amok that Oris cesselesaly and th glare, of th furnace furnish a funeral pyre for tho whoa lives have been snuffed out In the making of the city' steel and wealth.

SOLVING RAILROAD PROBLEM Have ladlaaa tCmaaetaated Itself fram th Meaeaolr mt Steam Heads, Th people are tired Of entreaty and sup pi lest Ion, of railroad owned monopolies, of the refusal of managementa to provide suf ficient motive power and rolling slock. Rumbling of publlo ownership grow louder under prolonged aggravation. That there la another way to th solution of this prob lem ha been perfectly demonstrated. In Indiana th people long ago wearied by the earn practices that now breed uni versal revolt against th steam railroads set themselves to th task of determining thla problem of transportation. And they did a strange and peeullar thing their first endeavor afforded th steam railroad own er and manager much amusement they set about building their own railroads. No longer do th steam railroad interests smile In . amusement. Seven years only have passen since the Indiana public went earnestly at this gigantic task.. Yet In that brief period Indiana , has so completely emancipated Itself from steam railroad mo nopoly that today there Is not put forth by th former monarcha of the state bo much aa a pretense of competition with the rail roads th people have built. Except In the matter of heavy, bulky freight transporta tion In the moat densely populated part of of th state la now carried on by the peo ple's railroads. And after this laps of only seven years Indiana leads the world In Intensity electric railroad construction and operation. " On thousand miles of track are now in operation; M miles are building and will be placed In operation early this year; an ether 2,000 mile are projected; every steam railroad out of Indianapolis has been par alleled; mora thari $50,000,000 has been In vested actually by these railroad properties; passenger ara carried at their convenience In clean and comfortable car, and for one half the former fare; parcel and perishable freight goe forward to it destination most expeditiously and at reasonable charges, and tire entire complexion of 11 f In th Hoosler stale has been Changed. meant as a transportation emancipator. Is revealed upon cursory examination of a trolley map of Indiana and a statistical red- Ord of the various rompanles now operat ing high-speed passenger and freight rail roads by electricity In that state. During I th present year the line to Louisville Will be opened to traffic and ' a through-train i ervlc operated; thi line from Lafayette I to Chicago will be placed under construc tion, and trie southeastern lines, which sre aimed to provide a through service between , maian.pous and Cincinnati, pushed nearer to completion.
