DOERFLER DEFENDS
BLAINE'S PARDON
Justice of the Supreme Court Gives
Opinion Dissenting from View
of Majority.
tHy Associated Press Leased Wire


Madison.-The right of. the governor
to pardon persons convicted of GRIM
inal contempt of court is upheld by
Justice Christian Doerher of the Wis
consin supreme court in dissenting
opinion from the decision Of the trib-
unal in the case of Hans Rodd, sheriff
of Oneida county, whose removal from
Office by Gov j. J. Blaine was held to
be void. Sheriff Rodd had refused to
obey an executive pardon warrant free
ing Peter Christ, Rhinelander strike
leader, from serving his full sentence
for contempt. Justice Doerfer con-
tends that by his contempt of court
Christ caused injury to the state of a
criminal nature which is pardonable,
declaring shat all criminal laws are
designed for the protection of the peo-
pie and where a situation arises where
a pardon or forgiveness of an offense
is contemplated to produce the public
welfare, such pardon ought to be
granted" "This pardoning power" he
said, "is vested in the highest repre-
sentative Of the people in the, state,
who is answerable to his constituents
every two years. Such powers have not
been abused in the history of the state.
Courts must shine not by reason of any
arbitrary power vested in them, but by
their inherent desire to do justice be-
tween man and man. Motion for re-
hearing of the entire Rodd case has
been made to the court.

Fought for Flag.
TO NSCRIBE NAMES

The people Of the town of Brighton
are planning a notable ceremonial for
Memorial Day this year when the
monument which has been erected
there in honor Of the men who fought
under the Stars and Stripes will again
be unveiled. This time a long list of
names will be added to the list of
heroes. A year ago the monument was
unveiled and at that time it bore the
names of the men from the town of
Brighton who had fought in the World
War. This year the ceremonial will
make the inscribing on the monument
OF the names of more than sixty men
from the town of Brighton who fought
in the Union army during the war of
the Great Rebellion, 1861-1865.
For some time the committee in
charge of the work has been searching
the records of the service of men from
Kenosha county in the Civil War and
the full list Of the men contributed by
the town of Brighton has been pre-
pared. The work of inscribing this
long list of names on the tablet Of
honor is now under way and it is ex-
pected that it will be completed by
Memorial Day. Nearly all of the men
who went from Brighton to have part
in the Civil War are dead and their
graves will be lovingly covered with
flowers at the same time that the mon
ument is unveiled.
Grand Army to Attend.
The ceremonial will be a great pa
triotic festival and committees in
charge Of it were in Kenosha on Satur-
day afternoon completing arrangements
to have large delegation of the mem
bers CT the Fred S. Lowell post Of the
Grand Army attend and the commander
of the post is expected to oficiate at
the unwilling. The ceremonial will be
held during the afternoon. Members
of the Grand Army posts at Kenosha,
Burlington and Union Grove have been
invited to be present. Assurance has
been given that ten members of the
Kcnosha post will go to Brighton for
the afternoon and it is expected that
there will be forty of the men who wore
the blue present at the ceremony.
A program is being provided for the
afternoon, but the name of the speaker
has not as yet been announced There
will be luncheon served at the church
hall to the members Of the Grand Army
but no public dinner will be held in

teresting to be held in Wisconsin.

RECOVERED IN TIME
Union Suit Wanted in Lawsuit
4 Are Found A ter an All
S. Night Search. 4


Once in while a union suit has
another purpose other than to be
worn. This was demonstrated much
to the annoyance of attorneys ,repre-
senting Horace G. Johnson, 423 West
Park Place, and Henry S. Cooper, of
Dunmovin, Kenoshans, who are plain
tiffs in lawsuit against the Lit
Brothers of Philadelphia, alleging in
fringement of a patent, according to
messages reaching Kenosha today.
A perfectly good union suit, which
had been appropriated by a negro
janitor for the purpose for which it
was made-namely to be worn-was
the cause of all the trouble. 1t sent. a
dozen lawyers and department of jus
tice agents in Washington scouting
throughout Philadelphia for several
hours in the wee sma' hours OF the
morning in search of the missing
suit of underwear. sss
Wanted as Evidence.
This union suit and one hundred
similar garments are exhibits in the
suit brought by the Kenoshans I'M the
United States circuit court. of appeals.
Pending the hearing on the appeal all
the exhibits were stored on the floor
of a spare room ini the federal build
ing at Philadelphia. Several negro
cleaners thought the suits had been
discarded and helped themselves to
nineteen of them.
Lawyers for the plaintiffs were
DUN bfounded when they discovered
that an important part of their ex-
hibit was missing. They spent sleep
less night in an effort to locate all of
the missing union suits before the
hour set for the case to be called in
the morning. A round up demonstrat-
ed that all but one of the union suits
had been recovered.
Find Evidence in Use.
In order that their records in the
court might be completed the attorneys
were frantic in the search for the
missing exhibit. Finally at four
thirty in the morning it was found in
rooming house and inside it was
sleeping negro who was using it for
pajamas. He was rudely awakened
and informed that he must find some
other night APPAREL.
The case involves more than a mil
lion dollars. Despite the troubles en-
countered in rounding up the evidence
the case was heard on time. A decision
from the court is now being awaited.

CHILE AND PERU TO
END OLD FIGHT
Gathering Opening in Washington To-
day Expected to End Forty
Year Estrangement.
tBy Associated Press Leased Wire.

Washington D. C. - Chile and Peru
estranged for forty years by their
dispute over Tacna-Arica, Joined here
today in new effort to compose their
differences and remove the problem
of the Pacific" as a source of inter-
national friction in Latin America.
The opening session of the confer
ence was called together in the pres
ence of official representatives of all
the governments of the world in the
Pan-American Union building.
As spokesman for President Harding
who invited the two governments to
discuss their problem here, Secretary
Hughes called the conference to order
sounding its keynote in an address ex-
pressing the anxious but impartial in
terest of the United States in an agree
ment.
Luis Izquferdo, responded for Chile
and Melton Porras for Peru. In pre-
pared addresses each declared the
willingness of his government to &C
cept fair and just settlement and
the hope of his delegation that the ne
gotiations would be success.
One of the most distinguished gath
erings Washington has seen in many
years made up the list of invited
guests. Brilliant decorations in which
the colors of Chile and Peru FREEDOM
mated were arranged for the occasion
about the meeting place.
Today's session was the first occa-
sion in IL years when fully accredited
plenipotentiaries of Chile and Peru
had been placed side by side at a
council table. It marked resumption

ed off in 1910 although there have been
a number of diplomatic exchanges
since by roundabout channels.

" as possible an equal number of con-
tracing producers. The producers in
each district viii elect a representa-
tive on the operations committee
1T is planned later to create nom
stock, non-proft sales association
which shall have entire charge of mar
keting, and in which each contracting
producer shall be a member. When
this is done, the, present marketing
company will receive process and man
ufacture milk under direction of the
sales association, and the sales assoc
citation will do the marketing.
"The committees plan also includes
the formation of local associations as
rapidly as possible to build and own
small receiving plants.
Plan to Pay Back Checks.
'Many of the old patrons of the COM
pany jumped their old contracts last
summer and fall, thus leaving the en-
tire financial burden Of the company
to be borne by the producers who re-
NAMED loyal, and making it necessary
to hold up one months milk check due
each of the loyal producers. The back
spreads due the company from produc-
ers who did not carry out their con-
tracts amount to practically 100000.
The company owes its patrons about
$375,O00 for held up cheeks.
"The committee feels that the back
spreads represent debt honestly due
the company, and steps are to be taken
to collect them. Where the producer
signs the new contract, he will be per-
mitted to pay his back spread by
monthly deductions from his milk
check, extending over year."
