BID FAREWELL TO PETERS
Employees of Bemis Omaha Bag Com
Dany Present Him with Token
of Friendship.

Manager NJ. c.. Peters, who retires from
the control of the Bemis Omaha Bag COM
pany, was yesterday afternoon at the close
OF his last day, presented with a diamond
set locket and watch fob by the employees
OF the company. Every one of the $50 men,
women = and children on the roll had a
share in the token and every one was there
yesterday at 4 o'clock. when Jules Lum-
bard made the presentation speech. The
employees filed into the room Just at the
hour when the Saturday dancing class be-
gins and Manager Peters thought they had
come to bid him goodbye. He was en-
tirely surprised at the token. Mr.. Hubbard,
in presenting the Jewel, spoke feelingly Of
the esteem felt for the retiring head by all
hands. He dwelt on Mr.. Peters career
from office boy to manager and his u%ntiring
kindness and thought for all in his control.
Manager Peters showed plainly his pleas
ure in the words spoken and the beautiful
token from the workers he has been direct
ing for so long. In replying to the spokes-
man, he thanked them all sincerely. He
said he felt that the success of the company
was as much due to their conscientious
work in the factory as to his own care in
purchasing the raw materials. At the close
Of the presentation everyone shook hands
with the retiring manager, who must have
felt, as to his arm at least, like the presi-
dent Of the United States.
The fob and locket are Of Roman gold,
the latter being set on one face with a
large diamond and bearing the Masonic
symbols on the diverse with Presented by

Peters is about the best man in Omaha,
and there is not a man in the house who
does not esteem him. He has always re-
warded good work with better pay, and has
always had our interests in view. We are
sorry indeed to have hir1 CO."

The Illinois federation includes 236 clubs
that are interested this year in pushing
an admirable child labor bill, In which
they have the support Of some of the best
citizens and strongest organizations OF the
state. 1t Is understood, however, that this
bill will meet strenuous opposition in the
senate and its passage is doubtful. They
have also an amendment to the compulsory
education law, a bill for licensing trained
nurses and to regulate the practicing of
trained nursing in the state, an act to en-
title tax-paying women to vote for GER
tain officers and to participate and vote
In certain meetings and on certain mat
tiers, and a bill providing for a colony for
eplleptics.
The Colorado federation has prepared
one bill and endorsed nine others this
year, and while none of them have as yet
passed both houses, there, is reason to be-
lieve that seven Of them will become laws.
The federation's bin provides for the orea-
ton OF a travelling library commission and
the bills that it has endorsed are: A
community property bill; a bill requiring
registration at school elections; a pre-
clnct option bill; a primary election or
direct nomination law; an improved and
more stringent child labor law; the initia-
tive and referendum; a bill pensioning
teachers after twenty-five years of s%ervice;
a series Of rape bills that protect women
OF all ages and infict very severe penal
ties; a bill forbidding the use of carriages
at elections. The federation includes 5000
women.
The Vermont federation includes 1,456
women, who this year presented to the
state legislature a bill asking that a woman
be placed on the examining board OF pub
lie institutions, such as asylums for the
insane, homes Of correction, prisons and
institutions where women are confined. Tue
bill failed to pass.
The Arkansas federation has four bills
before the legislature of that state, one
providing for a free library commission and
providing one-fourth of 1 mill OF the regu-
lar 5-mill tax for library purposes; a bill
providing for a reform school; increased
revenue for public schools; to provide for
the Introduction Of the kindergarten and
manual training into the schools; a bill
providing for the eligibility of women on
school boards. The fourth bill has met
with so much opposition that It is feared
by the legislative committee that it will
prejudice the Legislators against the others.
