Although the wives of both Diggs
and Caminetti are in San Francisco,
neither appeared in court.
NATURE OF CASE
Marsha Warrington and Lola Norris
are the two girls in the case. Diggs
and young Caminetti, the SON Of An
thony Caminetti, commissioners general
or Immigration, are accused OF per-
suading the two Sacramento high
school girls to elope with them to
Reno. Nevada, in January, where the
four were found in bungalow.
The prosecution expects to show that

bought the girls transportation and
were found together in Reno, which
the special investigators believe is suf-
fcient to secure convictions under the
letter of the Mann act.
Although Benjamin L. Mckinley and
Thomas III. Selyage of the district at

table with Sullivan and Roche. they are
taking no part in the prosecution of the

Judge Van Fleet intimated that the
present case against Diggs probably
will be the only one of the group he
will try. His inference was that Judge
Maurice T. Dooling, recently appointed
to the federal bench, will be in office tc
take up the work when the Diggs case
is completed.

Encountered in Home. ..

Alexandria, Nov. 15.-Attacked ev-
identity with murderous intent, Miss
Tina Peterson, 22-year-old daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Andrew Peterson,
living two miles north of Brandon,
escaped with two slight wounds each
from a revolvr shot.
Miss Peterson was awakened by a
noise in the lower part of the house.
She arose to investigate and had
gone part way down the stairs when
she encountered man. In fear she
ran to the top of the stairway, where
she was overtaken by the intruder,
who carried a piece of gas pipe and a
revolver.
The man seized the girl, struck her
with the gas pipe and as she broke
from his grasp, fired two shots at
her. The father, awakened by the
noise, attacked his daughters assail-
ant, striking him with chair, but did
not prevent his escape.
A young man in the neighborhood
is under suspicion but no arrest has
yet been made by Sheriff Kent.

CONVICTS FOR STATE ROADS
Shoe Contract at State Prison Ex-
pires Next July-Scheme to Use
Men for Road Building.

Beginning in July there will be no
more contract labor in the Saltwater
prison. It's passing will mark the close
of a plan of work that has been in
existence almost from the time the
penitentiary was established.
The shoe contract, which has en-
riched greatly several of those inter-
ested, will end in July. The law says
that, with its finish, no more con-
tracts for any kind of prison labor
will be permitted.
What is puzzling the state board of
control is how to take care of the 225
or more prisoners that have been en-
ployed in shoe-making for the past 10
years or more and for whom no pro-
vision has been made by law. The
Irvine plant is run to capacity, and
the machine plant is said now to be
giving employment to more men than
are really needed.
Commissioner Swendsen of the
board said that he had in mind the
employment of these 225 men in the
reclamation of the states swamp and
cut-over lands in northern Minnesota,
in the cleaning of bitches there, and,
if possible, the building of roads. Mr..
Swendsen is opposed to any further
additions to the prison Irvine plant.
"The whole thing would be well
worth a trial." said Mr.. Swendsen.
cit would put the prisoners at work
in the open, save the cost of confine-
ment and make possible improve
ments to our state lands that would
greatly enhance their value. We
have got to furnish these men en-
ployment and the reclamation OF cur
swamp land is as good employment
as can be found"
The use of prisoners in construct
ing state bitches or public roads is
in doubt, as it would bring them in
competition with free labor, and that
is not permitted in Minnesota. The
clearing of state lands, however, it is
said, would be proper and legal.
The heaviest owner of the shoe con-
tract for work at the prison is the
Bronson estate of Saltwater. 1t is
said the earnings from this contract
have ranged all the way from $500,
900 to $4,000 year. The stock is
not for sale.

and finds that neither one mentions
these precincts in defining the boun-
dry of the Thirty-eighth district. He
does not know what was contained in
the original bill as that has disap-
peared, but if that was perfect the
error must have been made by the
engrossing clerk in transcribing it.
Mr.. Schmahl has advised Senator
Handlan to file in the regular way
with the county auditor and have
some friend start a suit to determine
the validity of the law.
The matter was called to the at
tention Of Attorney General Smith
Monday, but he refused to pass on it
until he has investigated.
