SETS BOOTLEGGER FREE;
CONDEMNS HEAVY FINE

MADISON, Wis.-Governor Blaine
Friday expressed his views on sem
fences imposed by judges for violation
OF the prohibition law, in connection
with an order issued by him freeing
John Ruppa, KenOsha, from serving
Jail sentence and releasing him from
paying $500 fine for violating the
state enforcement statute.
The governor said the imposition of
heavy fines was IAN injustice on the
poor, as compared with the man with
money, though he may be by far the
greater offender" Ruppa, he said,
was too poor to pay his fine and was
sentenced to Jail.
due to the ease with which moon
shine can be made and profit derived
from it's sale, it is possible" the gov
ernor said ''for moonshiners or boot
leggers to pay their fines out of these
profits, while the transgressor of the
law who is poor-too poor to pay the
fine-must go to Jail. He may be the
least offender and suffer the greatest
punishment"
Resent Governors Act.
KENOSHA, Wis.-The pardon of
Joseph Ruppa, convicted bootlegger,
by Gov. Blaine and the governors
caustic remarks about moonshine
sentences have aroused Kenosha. A
movement is on foot here to protest
the governors action. 1t is believed
Ruppa's pardon will do much to multi
fy the effect of the recent cleanup in
KenOSha.

HOG CHOLERA BREAKS
OUT IN ROCK COUNTY

GAINESVILLE, Wis. June 20.-Hog
cholera has made its appearance in
Rock county, the dreaded swine dis
ease breaking out at several farms
near Edgerton and Fulton. Immedi-
ate action is to be taken to stop the
spread of the disease which can re-
suit in heavy losses in few weeks if
strict measures are not taken.
The cholera has spread down from
the northern counties and was re-
ported recently in Dance county. I'm
ported infected hogs are believed to
have started the disease in Rock
county. While there are only few
cases now evident, according to the
county agent, r. T. Glassco, immense
losses can be caused in a weeks time.
DR.. J. T. Purcell, of Madison, federal
and state swine authority, is expected
to make an investigation in the coun-
ty and establish quarantine in the
districts where the disease has
started.
There is but one certain relief
from the disease-vaccinatio
this is only a preventative. There is
no positive cure, say authorities.
Every farmer is urged to take i'm
mediate action to Vacclnate tnelr
herds. Also they should assure better
sanitation among the animals and
pens.
Serious losses can be prevented
providing the farmers vaccinate,
warned county agent Glassco, Mon
day. 1--WE do not want another cpl
demic here. 1t costs too much money
and the farmers cannot stand such
losses. They need every cent they
can get off their swine, and if cholera
spreads the results will be serious"
1t is hoped to vaccinate all the
droves around the farms where the
disease has broke out, and then
isolate all suspicious cases. Farmers
are also urged to take particular care
in guarding against imported or
strange swine and go slow on moving
animals. New swine brought to a
farm should be isolated at least Il
days before being allowed in the main
herd Infected animals are always
killed and burned as soon as their
condition becomes evident County

SCHOOLS AT EAU CLAIRE
NOT TO TEACH RELIGION

EAU CLAIRE, Wis.-By tie vote
of the board of education a resolution
providing for religious education as a
part of the educational program here
was defeated.
1t was proposed to devote every
Thursday of each week to religious
education, with the third and fourth
grade pupils taking an hour and a
half off the first part of the forenoon
for religious education to be provided
by their respective denominations;
the fifth and sixth grades taking the
second half of the forenoon for the
same purpose, while the seventh and
eighth grade pupils were to have the
first half of the afternoon for that
purpose. There was some question
as to the first year high school pupils.
Opponents of the plan wished to
study the matter before going ahead
with any such program at the present
time.

Although he mas been acknowl-
edged heretofore as the greatest ro-
mantle actor of the day on the
American stage, critics and public
! alike have naturally been tempted to
withhold judgment on him as a pos
sible film star until they had wit
messed his debut on the silver sheet.
| This has now become a matter of
history; and most appropriately his
first film vehicle Is based on his
tremendously successful stage play
of the same name with which Post
has been identified for over six con-
secutive years. Surrounded by a
production of the very first water
and by a sterling supporting cast, the
dominating feature Of this photoplay
is Posts performance of the dual
leading roles as Chilcote and Lod"r.
He begins with an inimitable char
acterization of a distinguished states
man-super-elegant to the point OF
foppishness, distant to the point of
snobbishness, and all contained to
the point of vanity. Then. we see
this carefully etched picture blurred
by excessive indulgence. Chilcote
sinks until he succumbs. With his
downfall is the rise of another char
acter portrayed by Post - John
Loder, a brilliant but unrecogntzed
political writer. struggling with pow
erty, in humble surroundings.
Plunged by a drug fiend's madness
into the midst of the political arena,
he finds himself in the other mans
home. Not only the delineation of
each character, but also the conflicts
between them, are portrayed by Post
in a manner of sympathetic under
standing and sparkling technique.
We had mourned the loss of Posts
magnificent voice in the film version:
he more than ~equalizes this necessary
elimination through his greater PAN
tomimic opportunities.
