to be followed rather than the en-
forcement of the letter OF the laws.
Many instances were cited by dif-

Tended through ignorance OF the law
One superintendent told OF man who
gave up pipe and some matches aft
er he had been told he was violating
the law by carrying them into a mine

man was not at fault as much as the
boss who had failed to instruct him

BOYS BE CAREFUL

l am a school boy like great
many other boys. Friends, one thing
| would like to speak to you about
are your bad habits. l feel that 1t
is a sin the way some of you boys
are living. | see you smoking and
hear you using language that is out
of place. Boys, please don't get
mad with me but | do want to see
you make a change. Boys, | would
like to know just how you can act
so in a crowd of boys and then hold
back such words before your par
ents. l feel if you are really trying
to live a Christian life you would
not use words so out of the place.
Now boys, | want to see you change
and use kind words instead of those
you have been using. There is some
body listening to you all the time.
This doesn't only apply to school
boys but everywhere go | see just
such conduct. Boys, can you go to
bed at night with clear con-
science? Now friends, as l have
said please don't get mad with me
about this affair but do make a
change. :,

Deputy Otto and Prohibition Officers Clean
up Liquor Plant on Somers Farm Just
Before Noon Today.
BATTLE WITH MAN AND WIFE
Joe Scherca Charged with Making Liquor Is Brought to
County Jail and Gallons of "HOOtch" Con-
fscated by State and Local Officials.

With thrills that rivaled the stories
of the battles between government rev.
enue officers and mountaineer moon
sinners in the hills of Kentucky
Deputy Sheriff Nicholas Otto staged a
raid this morning that resulted in the
arrest of Joe Scherca and the seizure
of six gallons of white "hooch" and
about hundred gallons of prune and
raisin mash Prohibition Officers
Bloodgood and Parkinson aided in the
raid
Scherca, who lives on nine-acre
farm about six miles from Kenosha on
the Petrifying Springs road, was en-
gagged in topping beets when the Off
GERS appeared on the scene. He imme-
diately came to the house and the Off
GERS and he went into the house where
the wife of Scherca was peeling apples
Joe, who had been topping beets, still
carried his topping knife. When the
officers entered, the woman rose to her
feet and shouted in Polish for Joe to
kill them with the knife. Joe, how
ever, was properly cowed and replied
in English, 81 no kill anyone" He,
however, was ordered to drop the knife
on the4table By Otto.
Find Evidence in Kitchen.
In looking around the kitchen, the
officers discovered several demijohns
of "Old Crow" The woman with
scream, however, picked up a gallon
and threw it at the remainder, break
ing three gallons of the moonshine
She was forced to remain quiet and
the moonshine was put in the officers
car. Not finding the still, the officers
retired to little out-building stand
ing in the back yard and there it was
they found the two stills and the two
worms. One of the stills was an OBJ
long affair with sundry attachments
for the conversion Of grapes and
prunes into "hooch." The other was
made from a copper boiler and had
the top soldered on. Besides the at
chments, it had woman's stocking
that was being used as a filter for the
mash. Investigation of the sock had
proven that it had been worn, as there
was large hole in the heel. Perhaps
it was this that gave such a piquant
favor to the "illicit."

been disposed of.
Chief O'Hare in Chicago.
Chief of Police Owen O'Hare left
early this morning for Chicago and no
statement was given out as to the
cause for the visit. At the police office
it was declared that the officers had no
information in regard to the where
abouts of the chief or as to his mission
if he went to Chicago. 1t is declared
that it is possible that some Chicago
people may be brought to Kenosha to
testify to stories told by Lang while
he was at the detective bureau in Chi
cago on the morning after he had made
his now famous confession to the Ke-
nosha police officers. Lang talked free
ly with detectives and other people in
Chicago and it is believed that their
evidence may be pertinent in the ex-
animation.
The district attorney this afternoon
began the examination of local wit
nesses to be called for the hearing on
Friday, the investigation being held at
the Office of the district attorney start
ing at two o'clock this afternoon. 1t
was expected that the entire afternoon
would be given over to interviews with
witnesses.
Leaders Of the work of circulating
the formal petition asking for a grand
jury for the county declared this af-
ternoon that the petition had been
signed by more than two hundred
property owners in the city and that
it would be mailed to Judge Belden in
Racine this afternoon. It is not ex-
pected that the petition will be con-
sidered by Judge Belden until he re-
turns from Watersmeet. The petition
was signed almost entirely by men en-
ployed in the big factories of Kenosha.

LOSES
in COURT CASE

John Scholey, the crusading consta-
BILE, lost fight in the municipal court
on Tuesday afternoon when Sam Grot-
sky, arrested for having liquor in his
possession and who was declared to
have destroyed the evidence" when he
knocked bottle out from under the
arm of Scholey, was discharged by
Judge Tully. The court held that the
evidence presented by Constable Scho-
ley and State Prohibition Enforcement
Officer Bloodgood did not constitute
evidence strong enough to hold the
prisoner guilty.
Cali the officials had was the smell"
declared Judge Tully this morning
"Both of the state enforcement officials
stated on the stand that they had not
tasted the contents of the bottle and
that they could not swear that the con-
tents Of the bottle was made up of a
concoction which had more than one
half of one per cent alcohol in it."
May Arrest GrOtsky Again.
1t was declared after the hearing
that the prohibition enforcement Off
Gals had no quarrel to make with the
decision of the court and that the case
against Grotsky for having liquor" in
his possession was weak one, but it
was also declared that later on some
effort might be made to have Grotsky
brought in for interfering with an Off
Ger in the enforcement of the law. This
is declared to be a very serious charge.
No warrant for the arrest of Grotsky
on this charge has as yet been issued
and it is understood that the state off
Gals were planning to take the matter
up with the attorney general before
action is taken.
Martin Valves Examination.
Frank Maetin, proprietor of the Sill
verlake resort, who was arrested at
SilverIake by state prohibition officials
on charge of selling liquor. was also
in court on Tuesday He waived exam
nation on the charges against him and
was held for trial at the next term Of
the municipal court It is expected
that bitter fight will be made when
the case comes up for trial.

NICK OTTO IS NEW RAID Herr
THE BOOSTER TRIP AND THE
FARMER.

For the past few years the Ke-
nosha Retailer and Business Man
has made it custom to held an
annual booster trip through Ke-
nosha county stopping at all of
the principal villages therein. The
spirit Of the Booster Trip is the
thing that is very often overlook
ed by the Farmer; it is the spirit
of neighborly friendship, spirit
that should grow with each sue
ceeding Booster Trip and more
firmly cement the relationship
between the Kenosha City Retail
er and Business Man and the Ke-
nosha County Farmer. The Bust
man Man from Kenosha makes
this trip every year with the sole
purpose of making better and
more friends, Of getting better ac-
quainted with his neighbors, the
Kenosha County Farmer, of ac
quainting himself more with the
problems Of the Farmer, and of
acqualnting the Farmer more with
Athe problems of the Kenosha Re
taller and Business Man. These
trips in the past have been profit
able to the business man from the
standpoint of making friends and
it is the hope of the combined re-
tail interests Of Kenosha city that
the Kenosha county farmer will
fully understand and realize that
these trips are not purely an ex-
enrsion through the county to adj
yertise the respective stores of
kenosha, but trip to bring
closer relationship and friendship
Between the Kenosha County
Farmer and the Kenosha Business
Man.
