Validity Sustained.

Washington, November 8.-The
validity of the Missouri eight hour
law for miners was today affirmed by
the Supreme Court in case of H. J..
Cantwell and other officers OF the
Catherine lead mines in that State.
They were arrested and convicted OF
violating the law by compelling or
permitting their miners to work over
the regulation eight hours. They
appealed to the Supreme Court OF
Missouri. Their contention was that
the law was invalid, being in contra
vention Of the provision OF the State
constitution prohibiting the enact.
ment of special laws regulating labor
and Of federal guarantee OF the right
of contract. Upon the afimance OF
the latter court Cantwell brought the
case TO the Federal Supreme court
which today aAimed the lower DEGREES
on the authority of previous deci-
sions.

McLaurin Astoaished.

Z. Washington, Nov. 10. = Former
Senator McLaurin is in town today.
He says be was in New York elec-
ton day. He has no use for Hearst,
he said, but he declared there is no
doubt that Hearst had besn elected
fairly. He says he never saw worse
intimidation of voters in all his life.
He went over the East and West
Side in an automobile, and saw
threats of intimidation ana assaults
in all directions.
SOME MORE VIEWS OF MR. McLAURIN.
Washington, Nov. l0-"I believe
Roosevelt stands good chance Of
being nominated by Southern Demo
crats to succeed himsef.. Nine out
of ten men in the South would vote
for him today, it the race question
could be sidetracked," said ex-Sena-
tor John L. MeLsurip, of South Car
olina, who was caller at the White
House this morning. 'sThe Presi-
dents Southern trip did the Repub-
lican party world of good" said
Mr.. McLaurip, s'and added thousands
to the Presidents personal friends.
II spent election day in New York
city, and, though I do not approve OF
Mr.. Hearst, / am sure as I am stand
ing here that he was elected mayor.
I took q ride about the city to see
how the voting was going on and l
want to- tell you this, the way they
treat negroes in the South is not a
marker to the manner in which they
dubbed white men over the big city
last Tuesday. When I started out,
I was dead against Hearst, but by 4
o'clock in the afternoon I would have
voted for him."
