LONG SENTENCE
Herman Wiesman and Philip Tax
man Draw go Days at Hard
Labor as VagabOnds.
STRONG HINT TO OTHERS
Prosecuting Attorney Says All Must
WOrk-Defendants Could
Afford to Be Idle.

What no doubt will prove never
to be forgotten lesson to the young
men involved and a warning to any
other loafers who may be in this
city, is the sentencing in Rock Is
land police court OF Herman Wies-
man and Philip Taxman to so days
at hard labor on charges OF being
vagabonds. The young men failed
to obtain employment. Both are
Rock Islanders and Wiesman was
said by Detective Tom Cox, witness
in the case, to be a habitual loafer,
and to have been warned by him
on many occasions.
1t was also shown that Taxman
has been ioafing for two months.
When warned on occasions previous
to their arrest they are said TO have
always stated that they would go
to work the following day.
The youn- men are said to have
sufficient means to support them
while not working and in police
court stated that they did not see
why they did not ave a right to
refrain from working if so inclined,
but said that if given another
chance they would go to work.
States Attorney Floyd E. Thomp-
son prosecuted the case, and told
the young men that they would be
given a ch-nce to go to work that
they could not miss, and recon-
mended that they be sentenced to
so days at hard labor. This SEN
tence was pronounced by Police
Magistrate c. J. Smith.

with the local health authorities in
the restraint of the present cpl
demic. Major Clark, CHIEF medical
officer at Rock Island arsenal and
Or. G. l.. Eyster. surgeon to the
United States employees compensa-
ton commission for Rock Island
arsenal
This meeting carefully consid-
cred the whole matter OF the out
break of epidemic influenza in the
community. its progress and the
steps taken to restrain and check
its prevalence. There is in the
urban community here on the I'LL
nois side of the Mississippi river.
approximately a population of
so 600 people. The health stats
tics OF the four cities of Rock Is
land, Moline and East Moline and
Silvis, shows that about two thou
sand OF them have been sick with
influenza, about 219 per cent in
about three weeks prevalence. In
the epidemic of this disease in the
winter of 1889 and 1880. within
three weeks of its appearance fully
| so per cent of the population had
been attacked. In the present cpl
demic in this country while actual
statistics are not at hand. the dis
ease in such communities as ours
has rapidly infected d much larger
percentage of population than it
has here.
1T is firmly believed that this
lessened prevalence in these cities
is entirely due to the early,
the congregation of people in
schools, churches, theatres, stores,
etc.
This is a military zone, about
a great national manufacturing ar
senaI, engaged in the production of
material that is absolutely neces-
sary 10 that great army of Amer
lean heroes who are fighting and
winning a war for our cOuntry's
safety and the establishment Of
government of the people, by the
people. throughout the world.
The wide prevalence of this
epidemic in this community would
be a diTeful disaster to this work.
Not only through the desire of the
individual 70 escape. but the con-
servation of the health OF the en-
plOyes in government work, makes
IL eXpedient that all other inter
ests should be subserviant at this
time. While the appearance of
new cases is diminishing, the in
fictitious cause is still present. 1t
is believed that with free com
munication of people there would

An army official, holding a prom.

The cry has been and stiiI is pro.

Spanish Influenza Closing Order
Threatens To Squeeze Out Ma

How many engaged in the motion
picture business will be able to
survive the impending ruin brought
about by the closing of all places
Of amusement because of the Span
ish influenza epidemic, is a ques-
ton that is brought vitality before
every manufacturer of films and
each producer.
Between Is and so per cent of the
motion picture theatres in the Unit
ed States are shut because of the
closing orders. In all of the New
England states, in Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Ne
braska, the entire south and the
entire west, all Of them have been
closed
The producers and distributors
OF motion pictures have been forced
to suspend production and release
CT new subjects. Their revenue is
cut Off They find themselves on
the border line of ruin.
Theatres that have been allowed
to remain open, all of them active
participants in the Liberty loan
drive, find that patronage, because
Of the epidemic, has decreased SO
that they are operating at loss.
How many of those in the indus,
try will be able to withstand the
forces that are now pushing them
over the border line into actual
ruin, will depend entirely on how
long the epidemic continues. Those
who survive the ruin that is threat
ening will have a long and hard
period of cOnvalescence during
which they will need what every
convalescent needs fair, free, open
chance to regain their full strength,
they assert.
