Phillip HEARS PLEA
OF KENOSHA "LIFETRS"
Attorneys Appeal to the Governor for
Pardon or Parole of John Brad
ley, Long in Prison.

In the executive offices at Madison
today Governor E. L. Philip heard
arguments for the pardon or parole of
John Bradley, sentenced from Kenosha
for a life term in the state prison at
Waupun following conviction on
charges of the murder of Clifford IT,
Smith. Attorney Calvin Stewart ap-
peared in behalf Of Bradley and show
ed to the governor the fact that at the
time of the >nviction the jury which
heard evidence had strongly urged mat
mercy be extended to Bradley. The
matter is being left entirely with the
governor. Local prosecuting officials
have taken no action to demand that
the pardon be withheld. Bradley has
served nearly ten years in prison and
all of this time he has been model
prisoner. Attorney Stewart when he
left for Madison ON Tuesday night de-
clared that he was very hopeful that
executive clemency would be extended
to Bradley and that he would be given
a chance to start life over again. Brad
ley was but eighteen years of age when
he was arrested for the crime.

County Exemption Board Rounds Up
Two Men Who Fail to Answer
When called for Service.

The Kenosha County Exemption
Board today turned over to the sheriff
two alleged deserters with instructions
that he deliver them to the officer in
command at Ft. Sheridan. The men
are the first to be sent by the local
exemption boards. One of them, George
Zilius, resident of the town of Som
ers, offered the defense that he never
received any letters from the exemp-
ton board. Regardless of the fact that
other mail has been delivered to him
his QUESTIONABLE is now in the hands of
the sheriff returned as unclaimed. y
He declared before leaving for TT.
Sheridan that he wanted to go into the
army and had been holding himself for
the call. He was called for service by
the county board ON September 18th
last and was at that time ordered to
Camp Custer. Anton Shurski, the other
man ordered to Ft. Sheridan, did not
have any defense to offer to the mem
bers of the board. He was certified for
service on October 4, 1917. Neither of
these men ever appeared for medical
examination. Zilius has retained an
attorney and he will seek to be reliev-
ed of the stain of desertion and prop
erly enlisted in the army.

DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS LOADED
Men Under Arrest Declare They Had
Not Seen NoGice and Others Say That
They Told People Eggs Had Been
Stored But Had No Placards.

Four Kenosha gocerymen found out
rhat the gun aimed at the sale of I'M
labeled cold storage products in Ken
osha was loaded this morning when af-
ter they had pleaded guilty to over
looking the demand of the state that
storage products be properly labeled
they were fined twenty five dollars and
the costs of the action by Judge Tulley
in the Municipal Court.
The four men, Christ E. Nielsen, Oil
Market Street, Harry r. Miller, 352
Grand Avenue, E. w. Berry, 919
Elizabeth street and julius Nielsen,
557 Newell street were arrested late
Tuesday afternoon on complaints made
by City Food Inspector, DR.. w. E. Mel
SON The complaints followed the first
drive of the Inspector against sale Of
storage products without proper labels
and placards.
The Inspector was busy on Tuesday
checking up stores in the city and he
visited a score Of them. The men for
TIE most part declared that they did
nos know that the law was being en-
forced in Kenosha. "Did mt know it
was loaded" one of them laughingly
asserted in the Municipal Court this
morning while he was waiting to be
arraigned. "Most people ask US
whether the eggs are storage or fresh -
said another dealer, "and we always
take care to tell them the exact facts. ("
All of the men admitted that the stor-
age products had no placards on them
az provided by the state law.
'We are checking up every place
in the city where food products are
sold" declared DR.. Nelson, following
the successful prosecutions in the NUM-
cipal Court. "We asked only for the
minimum fire for the men brought Ill
today They claimed that they had not
had sufficient notice but two weeks ago
the entire law was published and every
dealer should be entirely advised as to
it's provisions. Eggs are not the only
cold storage product that we are after.
We are after these fellows who have
been dealing in cold storage chickens
anG we are going to get them. The
people in Kenosha who pay the prices
that are being charged in these times
must know just what they are paying
them for. The crusade for proper label
ing Of storage goods is going to be
enforced impartially. Every violator
of the law is going to be brought into
court and in the future we will make
no suggestion of minimum fines. Of
course it is possible for us to pile up a
large number of com, ,laints against
these people but we are hopeful that
one prosecution on one complaint will
be sufficient to force them to see the
necessity of following the provision of
the law in connection with the handl
ing of all storage products.
A state wide enforcement of the Law
regarding the labelling of storage ana
"held" products has been innauguratel
and the state is insisting that every loca
food Inspector see that it is enforced tt
