Missouri Eight Hour.Law Case,

A Washington dispatch Of last
Tuesday says: n. 7, Gentry, As
sistant Attorney General of Mis-
souri,, will argue for the constitu.
tionality of the Missouri S.bour
law in the Supreme Court this
week. The case is docketed for
Wednesday, but it may not be
reached till Thursday. Harry j.
Cantwell of st. Louis, on his own
behalf will make the argument
against the law. Mr.. Cantwell is
interested in lead mines in Mad
ison County and violated the law
II his mines for the purpose of
bringing test case.
THE case is a very important
one" said Mr.. Gentry tonight.
The State of Missouri enacted
the eight-hour law in 1901, and
the Circuit Court of Madison Coun-
ty aud the Supreme Court of Mis-
souri, have upheld it. 1t is brought
here on the plea that it violates the
Federal Constitution. Similar laws
are in effect in Utah and Nevada, >
Last spring the Supreme Court
of the United States knocked out
the eight hour bakers law of New
York, which was a statute limiting
bakers to eight hours work. Mr..
Gentry maintains, however, that
there are points of difference be
tween the New York baker law
Missouri mining law.
The action taken by the Supreme
Court will be of consequence as a
precedent for Utah and Nevada
and to any of the States which
mey undertake similar legislation.
