ENOUGH LEGISLATION
UPON THIS SUBJECT

1T is impossible for legislation 10 20
further in that line than il has already
gone without having the appearance Of as
suming guardianship over the laboring
men which their condition will not war.
rant to be assumed, and without injurio,isly
affecting the labOring men. II is almost
impossible 10 find aborng man who does
not have the ambition and hope 10 get be
yond the condition Of labor, and it is only
by permitting him TO have the same free
dom OF contract that other people have
that he will ever be enabled 10 attain his
hope. The sort Of protection that is
sought to be given him by this bill is no
protection, but an absolute injury. II
takes from him the right to make contracts
and the right to sell his labor except for
cash, for when the employer is prohibited
from contracting with him, the laborer
is also prohibited from contracting with
the employer.
This sort OF law would shut the Ia
borer off from many avenues which are
now open 10 him for employment. II
frequently happens that men will employ
labor if they can do so at least in part
credit. The laborer may often obtain
employment where he can be paid in
that which is just as good 10 him as
money when, if the law we're as il is
sought TO be made by this BILL he could
not obtain employment at all and must
StarVe. This is not right

WOULD ACCOMPLISH
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING

I'VE are clearly Of the opinion that if
this bill should be enacted into the form
OF law, it would accomplish nothing be
cause the courts would promptly hold il
unconstitutional and void. II IL not within
the power Of the legislature to select one
class OF persons like the laboring man
and so hedoe theil around with alleged
protection that they are precluded from
making contracts which others may readily
make, and in our opinion no friend of la
Dor would ever advocate such law"

GOT UP ONE MORNING AND
FOUND HIS WIFE GONE
Simple Recital Secures Henry Hitter a
Divorce From lda-Mary Jane
Lovett Is Also Free.

Two divorces were granted in short
order by Judge McClernan this afternoon,
upon the showing made by the counsel
for the respective plaintiffs. Neither de-
defendant put in an appearance.
Henry Hitter was granted a decree sep
arating him from Ida Hitter on the
grounds OF desertion. They were married
in Minnesota November IS, 1901, and
have two children 8 and II years Of age.
Hitter says his wife left him in Portland
in June, 1901.
What were the circumstances of her
lcayingI' asked the court.
why, one morning when ! got up She
was gone" replied the witness. "She left
with another man."
How do you know thati" asked Judge
McClernan.
Il saw her with him two weeks later"
said Hitter.
The two children are at present living
with their mothers sister in Oregon, and
Hitter said he was sending money for
their keeping. A man by the name of
Rice corroborated Hitter. The court
granted the decree and gave the father
the custody Of the children, subject to the
fact they were at present outside the jur-
isdiction of the court.
The court also granted Mrs Mary lane
Loyett divorce from her husband, VIII
liam Lovett, to whom she was married in
Lenawee county, Michigan, June 20, 1884.
Desertion was the ground Attorney
r. Grice was counsel in both cases.

WOULD MAKE lAB0RER
OUT TO BE A WEAKLlNG

Legislation TO this effect would have
the result of charactcrizin" the Iaboring
man as a weakling and this is not the con
dnion OF the laboring man in this state"
Says the report: "Ile is fully able To
protect himself aud has the lien laws and
other means Of enforcing payment Of
what is due him should he encounter a
dishonest employer"
The committee on labor consists en-
tirely of laboring men. Graham, the
chairman, is bridge builder, but the
members have displayed an inclination To
discourage measures. which are likely 10
impose undue hardships on employers Of
labor.
Another radical labor bill was put TO
death by the same committee. IL was Nor
fissey's bill to secure the payment Of
wages in lawful money, and brought from
the committee a sweeping opinion against
such proposed legislation The report
says:
I'm our opinion this bill would be un
constitutional. II is intended ms a sort Of
company store bill and We already have a
law covering that subject. In the state
OF public opinion in Montana il is i'm.
possible Tor any company or corporation
or individual to oppress his or its en-
ployes by compelling them to trade at a
company store

Washington, Jan. 2o.-When the house
met today it was agreed that at tomorrow's
session bills from the committee on claims
should be considered and that recognitions
should be accorded to members alternately
on each side of the political aisle to call
up bills on the calendar.
The house then resumed consideration
Of the Indian appropriation bill.
Mr.. Lacy of Iowa offered an amendment
to authorize so children of native Porto
Ricans to be admitted to the Carlst school.
In the senate today Mr.. Hanna moved
to disagree to the amendments OF the house
to the department OF commerce bill and
agree to a conference. The chair ap-
pointed Messrs. Hanna, Nelson and Clay
on the present senate. A senate bill was
passed authorizing the building of dams
and other improvements on the Columbia
river in Washington.
Mr.. DIETRICH Of Nebraska presented
resolution dscharging the committee on
relations with Cuba from further consid-
Grafton of a house bill pertaining to Cuban
reciprocity.
Reciprocity, he said is being held in
"statu quo" in the senate and he asked
that the resolution lie on the table, as he
desired to submit some remarks upon It.
To Report Bill Back.
The senate committee on commerce to-
day heard the report of the SUBJ committee
The Butte inter mountain., 1903-01-29
NATIONAL HOUSE AND SENATE
and Clay Senate Committee on Commerce Bill
Amendments Relating to Power of President

appointed to analyze the department Of
commerce bill as it passed the house and
make suggestions as to what, II any
amendments should be made TO the meas
ure, but decided to report the bill back
to the senate without amendments and
ask for conference with the house.
Accordingly after the senate convened,
the bill was thus reported by Senator
Hanna and the senate ordered a confer
ence with Senators Hanna, Nelson and
Clay as conferees on the present senate.
The senators appointed are the men
who have acted as the sub committee and
their efforts will be directed toward Sc
curing amendments along the line recon-
mended by the subcommittee.
The principal amendments relate to the
provisions authorizing the president TO
transfer the interstate commerce commits
sion to the proposed department and to
the amendment for bureau of corpora
tons inserted by the house.
The trust provision constitutes section
of the house bill and the senate COM
mittee will ask for a modification Of that
provision which will direct the corpora
ton bureau to secure all obtainable infor-
nation concerning corporations and which
will authorize the publicity OF such infor-
nation at the discretion Of the president.
The committee also adheres to its oppo-
sition to the inclusion of the interstate
commerce commission in the new depart
ment.
