KANSAS EIGHT-HoUR LAW.
Supreme Court Affirms Its Constitu.
tionality In Relation to Public
Work

Washington Dec. 1. - The United
States supreme court has affirmed the
constitutionality of the Kansas eigh,
hour law regulating labor on public
works Justice Harlan in handing
down the opinion said that if the
statute is mischievous the responsible
ity rests with the legislature and not
with the courts. Chief Justice Fuller
and Justices Brewer and Peckham dis
sented.
The suit was brought by w. w At
kins, who had a contract for paving
streets in Kansas City and required
one of his men to work 10 hours a day.
He was prosecuted in the state courts.
convicted and appealed to the federal
court, claiming violation of the ma
tional constitution in not receiving due
protection of law and being deprived
of his property.
The Kansas law in question affects
not only work carried on by the state
but by counties, or other municipali-
ties and makes eight hours a days
work.
The opinion rendered by the su.
preme court was based on the theory
that all the municipalities of a state
are the creatures Of the state; that
work for them is of public character
and does not infringe on the personal
liberty of any one.
Justice Harlan said: Whatever may
have been the motives that controlled
the enactment of the statute in ques.
tion, we can imagine no possible
ground to dispute the power of the
state to declare that no one under
municipal agencies shall permit or re-
quire an employe on such work to la
Dor in excess of eight hours each day
and to inflict punishment upon con-
tractors who disregard such regula.

upon such terms as he deems best-as
undoubtedly it is-and that to make it
a criminal offense for contractor for
public work to permit or require his
employe to perform labor upon that
work in excess of eight hours each
day is in derogatiOn of the liberty Of
employe and employer, ii is sufficient

lutte right and as a part of his liberty,
to perform labor for the state; and no
contractor for public work can ex.
cuse a violation of his lawful agree
ment with the state by doing that
which the statute of the state under
which he proceeds distinctly forbids
him to do
On the point of the validity of
similar statute affecting private en-
poyment, Justice Harlan said
Whether a similar statute, applied
to laborers or employees in purely pri
vate work, would be constitutional is
a question of very large import,
which we have no occasion now to de-
termine or even to consider"

Says Mr.. Bristow's Statements About
His Criminal knowledge Are False.

terms Judge Baldwin, consul at

furlough, declared that the statements
of Fourth Assistant Postmaster Gen
eral Bristow that he, Baldwin, knows
much about the postal frauds and brib-
cry, are absolutely false and unwar-

Consul Baldwin said: Il went once

Miller, and said to him that my son-in-
law desired to introduce these ma
chimes and asked him to give them a
trial Mr.. Heath said he would inves

nicated at any time with them"
Consul Baldwin says he never ad-
vised his son-in-law "to make any
agreement or arrangement for dollars
and cents with anybody"
Referring to the statement by Mr..
Bristow that there is reason to be-
lieve that Judge George E. Baldwin

The chair has never been used, but
the helmet and leg electrodes have

for several years. He also has other
apparatus, not patented, that he uses.
He carries this apparatus with him in
his little black grip from place to
rlace and has jealousy guarded his
secret Davis refused to sell out
right but now has agreed to it.
In the meantime there has grown
up a considerable opposition to capt.
tai punishment and it is understood
that Governor Odell will not allow
the payment of the money to Davis
until it is learned what the legisla.

event Davis will have to instruct sew

cut.oH Across Great Salt AXE.

One hundred and two miles of track,
composing what is known as the Og-
Gsn-Lucien cutoff across Great Salt
Lake, is formally declared complete
and made part of the Hartman
system.
The use of the cutoff will throw out
OF trans-continental traffic the old
line from Ogden to Lucien, New,
around the north end of Great Salt
lake. This stretch of track, i47
miles in length, is one of the most
difficult and expensive of the Harri-
man system. Its maximum grade, over
the long Promontory hill is 104 feet
to the mile and helper engines are
necessary. The elimination of this
treckage means a saving of more
than $1,500 a day in the actual opera
ting expenses and a saving of two
hours in running time.
