Nolan Wants It,

Representative w. I. Nolan of Min
neapolis expresses himself to the Pho
neer as follows:
IF there is any assurance that the
legislature will reverse itself and
pass a fair reapportionment bill,
would certainly be in favor of a spec
ial session. 1 further believe that
the special session should pass the
recall and direct primary measures
which passed both houses and only
failed by a fuke. A presidential
preference law is another very i'm
portant piece of legislation for which
there is real demand and should be
passed at this time. BY all means
the governor should be required to
make good on every promise made"

Rumors Become Rife.

Word has been received in Bemid-
il that any effort by persons posing
as friends of Governor Eberhart to
prevent a free and full consideration
of the proposition of passing reso-
luton at the St. Cloud convention
will cause those delegates who be-
lieve that such move is the only one
left for the North, will champion
terms, but that if the reapportion-
ment issue is freely discussed and no
attempt at "gag" rule is made that
there will be no embarrassing COM
plications at the convention which
convene on December 8.

Labor Bureau Woman Also Advises

WANTS NEW LAW FOR GIRLS
Relieves None Under Is Should Be
Permitted to Work More Than
10 Hours Day.

"A
sofa legislature it is likely tha1 d
hill will be introduced making IL
unlawful for girls under Is years OF
age to work longer than ten hours.
Mrs. Perry Stakweather, of the state
labor bureau, who has returned to
St. Paul after four public talks In
Bemidji has data concerning the
10000 women at work in Minneso-
ia, which goes to show that physical
breakdowns are frequent in girls
who work longer than ten hours
dav and it is her hope that recon-
mendations limiting the hours will
be needed by the lawmakers.
May Get $4,000 in 1912.
Mrs. Starkw Gather has made a tour
of inspection of some of the northern
towns and although her department
has been able to put many truant
children in school and has obtained
state control over several wayward
girls she says the lack of funds han
dicaps her labor in connection with
her work on behalf of the children
and working women of Minnesota
and that she hopes to obtain an ap-
preparation of $4,000 from the next
legislature. The first appropriation
was in 1907 and was for $1,000.
"It simply is question of how to
do the work." said Mrs. Starkweath-
er. "At present we have our hands
more than full and as much of what
is done is of a confidential character,
the public does not always know
what we are doing.
Bet Girl Could Drink Whisky.
"For instance, I have a case on
now in a certain town which I dare
not name where the mother of two
girls, ii and is years old, is dead.
A few days ago, the father took home
with him quart of whisky and
made wager with companion that
his two girls could drink it. Now,
I must see to it that the girls are
taken care Of. I have another case
extremely sensational, involving a
prominent citizen, but these things
come to me confidentially and I
would not for the world betray the
identity of any of them"
Wants Boys Club Here.
In short talk before gathering
of business men at the Bemidji Com
mercial club, Mrs. Starkweather
urged that the school houses of Be-
midi be thrown open during the ev-
ening for social events and that a.
boys club, to work in harmony with
the Boy Scouts and along the lines
of the Y. M. c.. A., be organized.
Mrs. Starkweather, together with
her assistant, Miss Peterson, has gone
back to Minneapolis, but still has
some work to be done here
More than dozen boys and
girls have been placed in school here
and girls who had made practice
of walking the streets have been TAX
en- to state homes.
Shocked By Girl Here.
The case of one girl in Bemidji
attracted the especial attention of
Mrs. Starkweather. The girl was
found to have been not only grossly
immoral but that she had been
spreading disease. She will be taken
to the state institution for girls at
Sauk Centre. T..
No definite plans have resulted as
yet from Mrs. Starkweather's sugges-
