to represent her. The woman who
filed the proceedings against the
girl also agreed to appear in court
and set matters right, and she was
indignant when she learned how
the police had 'railroaded' the girl.
The woman had asked the police to
phone her when the case was ready
for hearing, but they evidently con-
cluded that this was too much
trouble when they could convict the
girl without calling witnesses.
I'VE then took the matter up with
Judge Mann and he referred us to
Deputy Prosecutor Clausen, with
the assurance that if Clausen found
the facts as we had set them forth
he would change his decision and
turn the girl loose, as he had great
faith in Mr.. Clausen. The prosecu-
ton of the case had rested with an
other deputy in the prosecutors Of
flee, Mr.. Nash, and he had already
told us it was useless to bother fur
Their about the case, that the court
could not change the finding If he
wanted to.
"After this our Norwegian minis
ter became interested and saw
Judge Mann a number of times.
Then we took it up in the Sons of
Norway, employed an attorney and
were about to appeal the case to
the superior court and get the girl
out on bonds, when Judge Mann or
dered her released. She served just
six days in jail, to which she would
not have gone in the first place, had
the case been tried on its merits.
The girl has since been placed in
another family and is now getting
along nicely

ticles under a misunderstanding
| rather than for a desire to commit
theft, and on learning this the
woman refused to appear against
the girl.
Yet the girl was written up under
headlines in the afternoon and
evening newspapers in sympathy
with the police, and convicted in
print, long before her case was
brought to trial in the police court.
A promise was made to friends Of
the girl that her case would not be
brought to an early trial, in order
to permit them to investigate the
facts, but two hours later she was
taken before Judge Mann, convicted
on the word of policeman and
given a fine of 500 and costs. The
case was marked conviction on
plea of guilty." in face Of the fact
that three witnesses present in
court say that the girl did not plead
guilty. When the facts in the girls
case became known, and friends
with some influence, politically and
financially, came to her rescue the
girl was discharged after six days of
Imprisonment, regardless of the
fact that she had been convicted
and fined by the court.
The above statements are
vouched for by l.. p. Rindal, chair
man of the committee of the Sons
of Norway, who, along with two
other geneltmcn, investigated the
case. 1.-THE girls case was called
to my attention about there weeks
ago" said Mr.. Rindall. "and | at
once proceeded to look up the facts.
| then went to Martin Burns, chief
of detectives, and he told me that
he would see Chief Sullivan and
asked me to come back the next
day. When I returned Burns said
that they had concluded to do moth
ing with the girl; that this was her
first offense, and that they would
send her to some home for two or
three weeks, to make her feel tue
offense she had committed and
then turn her loose.
This was in the forenoon. He
told me TO come back at 2:3O. On
this showing | did not bother to get
a lawyer, thinking the case settled.
and imagine my surprise when I re-
turned to find that the girl had
been tried in the meantime, found
guilty by Judge Mann and given a
fine of $1o0 and costs. found that
the only Witnesses examined in this
case were police man and Captain
Bertha Smith Of the Salvation
Army, naither of whom knew a
single thing directly of the case
against the girl. After this l saw
on the record an entry of a plea OF
guilty set opposite the girls name.
but from three persons who were
present in the courtroom when the
hearing occurred ! learned that Il
was not a plea OF guilty, but a trial
and finding of guilty by the court
and sentence Of 800 and costs.
"Then ] returned to Burns and
asked what this meant. Oh he
said, 1t don't mean anything, for we
won't send the girl to JAIL That
afternoon the girl was put into the
patrol wagon and sent to the county
Jail, despite the assurance OF Burns
to the contrary.
"Had we known that the girl was
to have been tried that afternoon
we would have had COUNCIL there
