The State Federation of Labor il
Convention at Oshkosh announced
legislative program calling for con

the recall of Judges. 1t was ASSERTED
that "the courts, by decisions and ju

One plank of the program would au
thorize the legislature to declare valit
any law held unconstitutional by the
state supreme court and anothe
would prevent the issuance of injunc

The state supreme court has upheld
the constitutionality of the Severson

The decision was given in the case
of Hugo Abby, Milwaukee saloonkeep-
er. Alloys fight was test case
backed by anti-prohibition organiza-
tions, and was looked to by hundreds
of saloon keepers all over Wisconsin
to provide them with basis for mil
lions of dollars worth of damage suits

constitutional.

LOST ONE AND
WON ONE, TOO
kendrick Lost to Juliaetta
And Won From Bovill.

Juliaetta defeated kendrick last
FRIDAY afternoon by score of 10 to
z. Until the seventh inning the
game was close and Kendrlck led 2
%. 1t looked like a sure victory
as Lewis, Hendricks pitcher, was
gong strong. The last OF the
seventh the scene changes. A COM
blnation of errors and hits allowed
6 runs for Jullaetta and IN the
eighth four runs, made on errors
and frequent hits, made the game
safe for Jullaetta. In the last of
the eighth the bases were tull and
one man down. McCrery then took
the box and struck out the next two
men.
Fred Albright umpired the game
and his decisions were fair to both
teams.
A return game will probably be
played at Kendrlck during chau-
tauqua week, at which time kend-
rick has decided to make it defeat
tor the visitors.
The game at Bovill was slightly
one sided with ID runs for Kend-
rick and for Bovill. Rocky pitch
ed a dandy game for kendrick and
had the Bovll sluggers at his
mercy at all stages Of the game. In
the ninth inning the score stood ID
to l for Kendrick. McCrery went
in to finish the slaughter and was
hit hard for three runs, including
one for bases.
DR.. Veon, umpired the game in :
most satisfactory manner.

y Evidently A. E. James doesn't be-
lieve IN halfway methods of farm
ing. He, planted a 10 acre piece of
bench ground to watermelons a
short time ago. Knowing that
melons are sometimes hard to get
started, he also planted the ground
to corn. He got fine stand of both
melons and corn, so when he cuIti-
Yates his melons patch he will plow
out the corn. However. If the mel
ons had failed to come up, he would
at least have had a patch OF corn.
