PLAN TO EvADE
CHILD LABOR LAW
Local Merchants Do Not Wish
To Be Caught Up on
Any Section.
GIVE NOON REST PERIODS.
LAW SAYS CHILD UNDER SIX
TEEN YEARS OF AGE SHALL
NOT BE WORKED MORE THAN
TEN HOURS.

A number of merchants of Richmond
have reported on a plan which they
have adopted by which the young per-
sons who are employed in their stores
may be kept at work until 10 O'Clock
al night without violating that section
of the law which provides that young
persons shall not work more than ten
hours each day.
The law requires that no boy under
sixteen years old. or girl under eigh-
teen shall be required to work more
than sixty hours each week or more
than ten hours in one day OF later than
10 o'clock at night. The penalty for
violation of the law is: First Offense. .
fine not to exceed so: second Offenso
fine not to exceed 500, to which may
be added Imprisonment in the county
jail for not more than ten days, ana
third and subsequent offenses a fine Of
not to exceed $500 and imprisonment
of not more than thirty days.
The plan is to relieves the young EN-
ployes from duty for a few hours dur
ing the middle of the day and keep
them at work later at night This is
necessary in order that the stores may
take care of their night business.
There has been some objection to this.
but whatever the inspector may think
of the plan he can take no action to
prevent it.
The objection is that the children,
when they are off duty during the day
remain on the streets instead of going
home. The control of this feature of
the child's conduct does not come with

sofa as second class matter.

THE year 1907 began its career
Tuesday under most suspicious cir
cumstances. Ely seems to be in
the best condition the first of the
year it has been for some time and
the prospects of much work at in
creased wages still further tends
to brighten the outlook. Ely has
not much in common with other
mining towns. It has outlived the
mining camp stage and has settled
down to a staid, law-abiding COM
munity with facilities that cannot
be excelled. Our mines are the
best; prospects for more mines as
good as any; our schools cannot be
surpassed and the general climatic
and scenic conditions are not dup
Heated anywhere in the northwest.
Ely is all right and so are its pro-
gressive up-to-date business men.
Keep your eye on us and watch
the gradual growth. The MINER
wishes all a happy and prosperous
New Year.

The Bird Case.

The only action likely to follow the
charges against A. c. Bird in the M. A.
C.-Oakwood water and sewer contract
is Legislative. Rep. Stanley Montgom
ery's bill to incorporate the district
around the college as a city under the
name of Collegeville or College Park
is likely to pass. When the young Ing
ham county representative said he
wanted the place made city right
of without any village probation, he
said il was SO the city could bond fol-
water and lighting plants. Now IL looks
as IL they will get them.
The contract was called TO the atten
ton of Attorney General John A. Bird
by friends of the college," and he ad
dressed letter to President Snyder
advising him that the contract was
void because the secretary was inter
ested in the sale of the lakewood plat
The law in which he declares the con
tract void provides for fine of $500
after conviction OF anyone violating it.
but it is believed that il there ever
was any violation in this case the stat
ute Of limitations prevents any pun
ishment.
Mr.. Birds letter. although dealing
only with lakewood, covers also. it is
said, the Delta plat which the college
supplied with water long before Oak
wood was plated

The Kalamazoo Strike

The rioting Of street railway strike
sympathiZers in Kalamazoo continued
throughout SUNDAY and was the most
serious since the trouble began. The
strikers themselves had little or no
part in the violence and most of them
attended church and heard sermons
which in part commended them.
AS a result of the violence Clifford
Carson, well known young athlete, is
a cripple for life and four strikebreak-
ers were placed in Jail. Carson was
with party of seven in an automo-
bile driven by Charles Bush, of Battle
Creek. AT the corner Of Portage street
and Washington avenue the machine
ran into rail that had been pried up
SO that the end stuck up in the air.
The rail wrecked the front of the
auto and caught Carson's foot, crush
ing it to pulp at the ankle. So firmly
was the car impaled on the rail that
it was nearly half an hour before Car
son could be released His foot was
amputated at the hospital. He is 80
years old and was in the Spanish war,

ORMA BUCKI.
Story of the HeartIess Return of the
Dead Body Is Denied.

1t is now said that the first reports
regarding the treatment given the
body of little Orma Bucki the boy who
was killed by being run down by an
interurban car near Monroe while his
foot was caught in "A cattle guard, by
ID. u. r.. employees, were unfounded.
AS soon AS the accident happened
the boy was hurried back to this city
and the company physician took him
to a Toledo hospital in a special car.
Everything was done to save his life
and when he died the father was aided
in picking out cssket. d. u. r. men
bought flowers and sent them back
with the casket The story that the
body had not even been washed was
caused by the fact that cinders had
been ground into the face Of the lad
and could not be removed.
The severed leg was at the once OF
DR.. Dave and was buried with the
body.
