Says He May Sue City
Of Little Falls for
Damages

Swanville News: Olaf Johnson
better known to his friends as "Pine
Lake"-was in the village Wednes :
day. looking for legal advice, regarding
g prospective suit against the city Of
Little Falls for damages. He claims
to have been. while in an Intoxicated
condition q few days ago; roughly
handled, in fact dragged along the
street by policeman, to the lookup
and otherwise misused.
Mr.. johnson is also indignant at
the publicity given the matter by one
of tho city papers and in order to put
himself In proper light has asked us
to publish the following:
Editor Swanville News:
Referring to an article published in
the Little Falls Transcript of Oct.
20th, relative to my incarceration in
the lookup Of the city of Little Falls.
l wish to say that while I must con-
fess that In my weakness I allowed
myself to get under the influence Of
intoxicating liquor, must say that
do not consider that it was at all
necessary for the city authorities to
drag an old man 70 years of age along
the public streets as though they were
dragging an animal to slaughter. Ny
long residence in Morrison county,
extending over period of 20 years,
and my reputation during those years.
1 do not think, j lstify such treatment
at the hands of pu Dlic officers. I write
this that those Of the neighbors who
may not know me personally, may
not be misled by the above referred to
article.

An Amused Editor.

Bakers Local union No. 10 of AL
bany has undertaken the somewhat
difficult task of abolishing night work
in the bake shops of the city. That it
contemplates a strike as the means Of
attaining the desired end is a matter
Of course, but what is most unusual if
not entirely unprecedented, says the
New York Times, is the fact that be-
fore taking action it has explicitly rec
ognized that there is third party in
interest-to wit, the dear, patient pub
lie. This the union has done by issu-
ing formal notice of it's intention adj
dressed to said public and devoted for
the most part to the presentation Of
reasons why. from the public's point of
view. it would be- good thing if the
bakers were allowed to work by day
and sleep by night like most other peo-
pie. @s"The old accustomed way Of pro-
ducing hot breadstuffs for breakfast"
this remarkable address begins, "sci-
ence has taught us to be deep rooted
evil and producer of dyspepsia and
indigestion to the public as well as to
our members. Dyspepsia as we'll as
indigestion is so per cent greater in the
United States than in any of the other
civilized countries in the world, brought
mostly by the use of hot breadstuf.
We therefore have right to feel con-
fident of the moral support and sympa-
thy of the public to make this impor-
tant movement success even at the
cost of little inconvenience of but
short DURATION"
Further OH in their address the Al
bany bakers tell how, in their opinion,
night work hurts themselves and their
families, but they do this nominally at
least, as second thought. 1t is more
than refreshing; it is beautiful and
touching to such an extent that we
heartily wish the bakers may succeed
