    WOMEN DEMAND
JUDGES REMOVE
M. ANDREASEN
Open Fire on Adult Probation
Officer for Activity in Pro
curing Pardon for . -James
C. Doriaghue.
A petition addressed to the district
judges of Douglas county asking
them to remove Adult Probation
Officer M. Andreasen was signed
by more than ISO women who at
tended an indignation meeting yes
terday atternoon at the Y. M. C. A.
to protest Andreasen's activity in
procuring a pardon for James C.
bonaghue, found guilty of . assault
and battery on 19-year-old Marie
Honach and sentenced by District
Judge Troup to 60 days in jail.
The letter written by Andreasen
. to Governor McKelvie on this sub
ject was read by Dr. Jennie Callfas,
who presided at the meeting.
I want particularly to note," she
said, "that this man Andreasen tells
the governor in this letter that
Donaghue was sentenced in the po
lice court, whereas Donaghue was
on trial for three days in the dis
trict court i.nd was found guilty by
12 men. lie also states in the let
ter that Donaghue 'has served about
30 days,' whereas Donaghue Had
' served cnly 23 days."
Mrs. Sumney Applauded.
Applause greeted Mrs. Sumney
when she declared that "the useful
ness of Mr. Andreasen as a proba
i tion officer it at an end." , .
"He mad misstatement to the
Kovernor in his letter, which is put
ting it mildlv," she declared. ', '
Mrs. Draper Smith declared that
'she could not see why the district
judges had only reprimanded And
reasen. under the circumstances. H,
Great sympathy for the mother
and sister of Donaghue was, ex
.ressed bv nearly all the speakers.
"But while I have deepest sym
pathy for the mother and sister, I,
am still sorrier for the girl who was
i the victim of this Donaghue. said
'Mrs. Robinson. "Forbearance in
such cases has ceased to be a vir:
tne. Our girls are not safe on the1
frtrcets. They are scarcely safe in
the homes." .
Looks Well Fed. : ' '
. Mrs. W. T, Graham spoke sar
castically. '
"Mrs. Callfas and I called at Mr.
Andreasen's office," she said. "He
told us he has lived in Omaha for
08 years. Ke said he gets a salary
of $125. Yet he looks well fed and
doesn't seem a bit overworked. The
high cost of living doesn t seem to
bother him at all."
The petition was passed by unani
mous vote. -
Another problem was introduced
by Mrs. Callfas and warmly ap
proved in speeches by others pres
ent. "We objeot to making heroes of
' rrarried men who come home from
France and are followed by un-
marned girls who are about to be-
come motners, a'J Mrs. anras.
1 "They ought to be put in jail and.
kept there," exclaimed another
woman.

COLOIMSTATUS
Heated Arguments in Domin
ion Parliament Urge Amend-;
ing- British North
America Act.
Ottawa, March 16. Parliament
ratified the peace treaty with Eul
ftHk by virtually a unanimous vote
tonight after spirited debate in a
prolonged session. '
. Coincident with the treaty's
ratification, the minister of justice
announced that the Canadian govern
ment had opened negotiations with
provincial governments with a view
to amending the dominion's con
stitution permitting alhendments to
the British-North America act with
reference to the government, of
Great Britain.
Approval of the position Canada
holds as a first-class nation within
the British empire, determined not
to revert to the, old colonial status,
was indicated by the general tone of
the debate on both sides, .of -the
house. A less "optimistic tone, how
ever, was evinced in the remarks of
W. S. Fielding, of Nova Scotia and
W. F. Cockshutt of Brantford,
Ontario.
Mr. Fielding said Canada could
not afford to take h,er place with
"rich parliament of the world."
Mr. Cockshutt declared Canada
"had 'gulped the expensive responsi
bilities' involved in " ratification of
the treaty of peace while the United
States had found it necessary to
amend article. ten after debating the
treaty for eighteen months."

to SherilT Clark of his participation
in the attempted jail delivery at the
county jail last Saturday night. He
is 23 years old and was a prisoner
on a federal charge of peddling

planning the escape for about a
week before the break for liberty
was to be made. The plot was dis
covered and trustrated just in time

that made by W. H. Bone, who has
confessed that he . brought to, the
jail two revolvers, dozen hack saw
blades and bott'.e of emery powder
fcr the escape. Hart says that the
package containing these things
was brought to the jail by Bone, de
livered to Jack Adams while he was
interviewing a lawyer in the corn-n-aiirl
that Adams turned the
package over to Hart in the cell.
The men concerned in the at
tempted delivery are all in solitary
