DECLARES WAGE ACT ILLEGAL
Judge CatIin of the Ramsey County
District Court So Views Mini
mum Statute for Women.

Holding the minimum wage law en-
acted by the 1913 legislature to be I'M
constitutional Judge Catlin of the
Ramsey county district court, sitting
at st. Paul, handed down a decision
ordering temporary injunction
against State Auditor Iyerson and
members of the minimum wage COM
mission from expending further mon
ey in the work of the commission.
The ruling also suspends the orders
of the commission fixing a minimum
wage for women and minor workers.
Judge Catlin's order makes the
minimum wage law ineffective until
the case has been tried on its merits.
His decision will be appealed to the
supreme court.
In granting the petition of E. w.
Williams, shoe manufacturer of Wi
mona, for a temporary Injunction
Judge Catlin ordered that Williams
be required to furnish $1,000 bond.
"The actual working of the law
would be apt to increase immortality
if morals are dependent upon wages"
Judge Catlin asserted in the ruling.
The law was held to be unconstitu-
,tional because it delegated the legis-
lative powers to an appoiQtive COM
mission and placed in that commits
sion a discretion as to whether there
should be a minimum wage.
even the state cannot lawfully
become a 'pater familias until the
form of government has been entire
ly changed" Judge Cat1in declared.
The second constitutional ground
on which the court based tne decision
was the abridgement of the right Of
the individual to contrac4 The law
interferes with both the employee and
the employer, according to the court.
The abridgement of contract was held
to be in violation of the Fourteenth
amendment to the constitution of the
United States.

ty matches, for instance, is an ll4
portant industry, employing many
men in Christiania and its immediate
vicinity. And thisr industry is being
seriously crippled. The particular
kind of wood from which these
matches are made is largely imported I
from Russia, and that importation has
been stopped, of course Besides,
since the war began there has been
much difficulty in marketing the prod
uct. So a number of the factories
have closed down or are running only
half time; and thus the army of the
unemployed has been increased. 1.-THE
same conditions obtain in Sweden,
which country is, with Norway, the
principal competitor of Japan in sup
plying the world with matches.

your Swamp-Root did me. I was both
cred with Kidney Trouble and lame
back for some three years; had taken
medicine from several doctors but
without effect. I finally tried Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and after TAX
ing three bottles was completely cur
ed. I have also recommended it to
several friends who have been COM
pletely cured Of kidney and bladder
trouble. In one case a friend Of mine
in Toledo took two bottles of Swamp
Root. which dissolved stone in his
bladder. He has not been troubled
since. Also friend in Springfield,
Ohio, who was employed at the Spring
field Metallic Casket Company was
completely cured Of kidney trouble
after taking Swamp-Root I give this

the means Of helping some one else.
