INTERESTING CASE
IN JUSTICE COURT

There was an interesting case in
Jstice H. l.. Halsted's court on Thurs
day afternoon between John A. Brown
and E. w. Langdon, the latter residing
on the road to Devils Lake. Mr.. Brown
had been living on farm owned by
Mr.. Langdon and, according to the
leace, which covered period Of three
years, the tenant was to vacate in case
the farm should be sold. Some time
ago Mr. Langdon sold the farm to his
son and Mr. Brown moved away,
There was due Mr. Brown the sum OF
$55 for work, and this Mr.. Langdon
rendered, but it was not accepted, Mr.
Brown claiming the sale was not bona
fide. He asked for damages. When
the case went to the jury they decided
there was due Mr. Brown the sum OF
$55 and in addition 500 as damages,
making a total Of $155.
1t developed that the farm had been
listed with J. T. Bates, and that Mr..
Bates had received his commission
for the SALE 1t was held by the plain
tiff that the son took charge of the
farm as war measure. Whether or
not these Influenced the jury is not
stated.
The jury consisted of Louis A. Win
ME, E. E. Smith, John Eiber Benja-
min B. Schubring, G. A. Briggs and
Samuel Neitzel.
AttOrneV J. w. FrenZ represented
Mr.. Langdon and City Attorney V. H.
Cady Mr.. Brown.

GROUND ALLOTTED
FOR WAR GARDENS

Those interested in securing war
gardens for the coming season met at
the high school on Thursday evening
and were addressed by H. w. Hawkins
of the high school faculty, who was
delegated to have charge of the work.
Mr. Hawkins described the lots that
had been secured for garden purposes.
They include the old circus grounds
which were used last year in the boys
garden contest, several gOod-siZed lots
in the Bowling property near the fair
grounds, and a few lots on the Ring
ling property across the street from
the Alf r. Ringing home on Oak
street. There are also several lots for
rent, and a description Of these was
given by Mr.. Hawkins.
About thirty persons secured lots,
all of the circus ground lots being TAX
en-, and most of those on the Bowling
property. Others, who were not pres
ent at the meeting, are also desirous
Of getting ground for garden purposes.
Mr.. Hawkins stated that anyone
who did not keep his garden up would
lose it, as it would be transferred to
someone else. He advised the use OF
commercial fertilizer on some of the
ground, gave other helpful mints on
gardening, and stated that the ground
would be plowed in about week.
Pamphlets on war vegetable gar
dening were distributed with the COM
pliments, of the First National bank
Of the city, who had secured them
from the National War Garden COM
mission

All. 7. RingIinQ
Gives Elephant
TO Madison Zoo.

"I will see which one I can best
spare and which one will be most de-
sirable to you," he added
DR.. Dwight and he will soon confer
on this point, then along will come
the big pachyderm.
''We are two nuts about animals, -
Mr.. Ringing remarked jocularly after
going over the ZOO and noting Dr.
DWight's vast enthusiasm and wide
knowledge of wild life. In this re-
spect Dr. Dwight is a man after Mr.
Ringlings own heart
TO PRESERVE THE SPECIES
The two nuts" talked of the de-
STABILITY Of great animal farm for
the perpetuation of various species
that are threatened with extinction.
Both had given serious thought to the
matter and Mr.. Ringing had even
brought the matter to the attention OF
DR.. Hornaday, the great naturalist of
New York. Dr. Dwight thought such
farm should be located, perhaps in
southern Virginia, which is near
enough the cold zone to effect the
proper acclimatizing of animals, but
Mr.. Ringing had rather pitched upon
Porto Rico as the right place. Some
thing more than a dream may result
from the conference. The animals
most in danger Of extinction are the
giraffe and the hippopotamus, said Mr..
Ringing.
AT LUNCHEON
Mr.. Brandenburg entertained Mr.
Ringing at luncheon at noon at the
Madison club, others present being
Burr w. Jones, F. w. Montgomery,
Magnus Swenson, F. M. Brown, DR..
Dwight and Mr.. Kelly, attorney of Bar
aboo. Mr.. Ringing was in pictures
for movie purposes when on the steps
at the Monona avenue entrance to the
capitol just before noon. The object
was to show Gov Philipp congratulate
ing United States Senator-elect I. L.
Lenroot. Other state officers were
present.

PROHIBITION IN FRANCE

The order isueds BY General Pershing prohibittng

purpose Of maintaining the sobriety OF his men and on.

far as possible. by his men. and rules and regulations
which may be made for the government Of the Amsri-
can people In their own territory have no force in anoth-
.er country. It ID assumed that the American general Il
conceded the right to make such reSulations.as may be
necessary for the proper policing Of his force within the
lines which bound his Jurisdiction. but It il obvious that
only such regulations should be made within the terri,
tory Of a friendiy cs6ntry associated closely with us IL
the military work OF the war as will, as far as possibte
conform to the ordinary practice OF the community. The
French laws prohibit the sale on French territory Of the
stronger alcoholic beverages. They permit the sale Of
beer and light wines. These wines especially are tho orr
binary drink Of 4 very large part Of the French popula-
ton. We're General Pershins to undertake to ada to the
present prohibitions of the French law others OF his own
making there would result misunderstanding and friction.
Further, the conditions pertaining to the military
operations in France will necessitate. in many cases. the
interminslins Of French and American troops. Detaci1--
ments from the two armies will travel over the same
ground. In cases they will fight side by side in the same
trenches. They cannot be kept. from contact with each
other. To impose on the local population one set OF
rules in their traffic with French troops and another for
that with American soldiers would be confusing.
For these reasons, while General Pershing has de-
clared his conviction that total abstinence from intoxi-
cants on the part Of soldiers is Ereatly to be desired. his
regulations amount to a recognition of the French regu-
lations as suitable and sufficient.

TOO ROUNDABOUT

The London Daily News, which, by the way, takes
the OF side of a good many matters pertaining to the war,
makes a rather remarkable suggestion that use be made
Of the Russian Bolsheviki as a means of undermining
the German government at home. The suggestion is, in
sld1kstanee... that as the Bolsheviki Ia an element to be
rek6honed With, and as IT. has reached SOME sort D fsterms
with Germany, the entente powers pay some attention
to It, give'it q measure Of encouragement. and lend some
aid to the work which it is doing to the end that the Boil
sheviki may spread disafection among the German
masses and hasten the German revolution which viii
make Of Germany a democracy.
The suggestion is interesting. But it savors too
much Of German methods to be acceptable We arc not
in the business Of war for the purpose Of trading with
the enemy. whether that enemy be German or Russian.
And tho guiding spirits of the Russian. Bolsheviki are
just as surely the enemies Of free government as are the
men who constitute the ruling caste in Germany.
1t 10 not specially our business" under what form of
government the people Of Russia choose to operate, ex-
cept that we cannot countenance a government which
is founded on ideals which are destructive Of all order,
and which, in its essentials, is nothing more than one of
the exerescences of anarchy. That is what the Boil
sheviki; "government- amounts to, It's methods and pro-
posals are matters OF little moment. It's spirit is utterly
Incompatible with the ordered liberty for which the en-
hghtened nations of the world are struggling. There
fore we cannot eondescend to accept 1t even temporarily

i, I'VE must deal with Germany with arms in our
hands and must prove to her that the weapons which
she has chosen are powerless with which to rule the
world. We must deal with Russia as we can, but under

and whose manifestations we may be called on to sup
