Eurithe K. LaBarthe (1845 in Peoria, Illinois–November 22, 1910 in Salt Lake City, Utah) was an American teacher and principal who served as a state legislator in Utah. She was a Democrat who lived in Salt Lake City.[1] She wrote the high hat law which required women to remove their hats at public venues, so views would not be obstructed, or face a fine. She proposed a curfew for children. She was an organizer of the Utah State Historical Society.[2]
LaBarthe née Ramsey was born in Peoria, Illinois in 1845.[3] She was not Mormon. She was elected to the Utah House of Representatives in 1896, two years after White women won the right to vote in Utah in 1894.[4][5]
