CAMP Align FOR
FUNDS NOW ON
Wisconsin, The Land o. Lakes, Inc,
Expects to Raise 100000
Within the Next Month.

Forest county, one of the smallest
counties in the state in point of pop
ulation, is the first county to COM
plete its quota for Wisconsin, The
Land o. Lakes, Inc. Not only did it
raise its entire quota, but so per
cent more than the required amount.
Following the lead of Forest coun-
ty, other counties are rapidly coming
in line. Milwaukee county, through
the Milwaukee Association of Com
merce, has pledged $4,000. Brown
county has been pledged by the
Chamber of Commerce at Green
Bay, while the Chamber of Com
merce at Appleton pledged the quota
for Outagamie county. 1t is eX-
pected that close to 100000 will be
raised within the next month by
Wisconsin, The Land O. Lakes, Inc,
for the purpose of advertising the
state of Wisconsin as the playground
OF the Middle West.
With the exception of very small
overhead expense, no commissions
and none of the funds raised are
spent for anything but advertising
and promotion of tourist interest in
the state of Wisconsin. The entire
board of managers receives absolute
ly no salary and pays its own expen-
SEES.
In this manner these funds are be-
ing raised at practically no cost to
the organization. Plans have been
completed for the biggest advertising
campaign ever conducted in the in
terests of Wisconsin, and while the
appeal to tourists will be the primary
note of the campaign, the industrial
and agricultural angles are not being
overlooked.
1t is expected that this campaign
win result in thousands of additional
tourists and millions of dollars being
attracted to this state during the five
months commencing in May. Already
many commissions are arranging to
improve or enlarge their tourist
camping grounds, while summer
hotels and resorts are busy at WORK
on new improvements and additional
Accommodations.
This state is fast becoming known
as the Playground of the Middle
West, thanks to the activities Of Wis
consin, The Land O. Lakes, Inc. All
counties in the state from Ashland
on the north to Crawford on the
south are members of this organiza-
ton.

BOOTLEGGERS PAY
$72,70O IN FINES
Jail Sentences Are Also Shown in
Report of Prohibition Commits
sioner For Six Months.

Madison-The modern adage
'the way of the bootlegger is beset
with evil" is proven in the report of
Herman W. Saehtjen, state prohibi-
ton commissioner, showing fines
amounting to $4,000 and 81 months
in Jail were imposed upon liquor
law violators during the six months
from July to January.
This report only includes the
actual cases in which state prohibit
ton officers were responsible for
arrests and conviction and does not
show the work done by county
sheriffs, local police and federal dry
officers.
IF the records of all dry forces
were included there would probably
be a total of 1000 cases instead of
the 998 handled by my department
alone" Sachtjen said. ''The fines
would total several hundred thou
sand dollars and the Jail sentences
would total good long life time"
The way of the bootlegger is most
thorny in Rock county, where three
violators were assessed $1,000 each
and year in Jail the largest SEN
tence ever imposed in the state for
liquor law violations.
Milwaukee county leads the list
with 326 cases disposed of and 81
pending. Fines assessed in Milwaukee
county totalled $34, 800 and Jail SEN
fences, Is months. Walworth
county equalled Rock county's record
but only one person was given the
one year and $1,000 fine penalty.
Reports from several ofthe larger
counties are as follows
Ashland, 35 cases pending, fines
of $500 and l Jail sentence of so
days; Bayfield,, 40 cases pending !;
Brown, 2 cases pending, fines 49,

The main floor of the Kearney

Mr. Petrusha suffered total loss
of his fixtures and refreshment

campaene in his barber shop. In
the Dodge agency three Dodge cars
we're destroyed or badly damaged
together with stock of accessories.
The Sanitary Dye Works in the base

The Royal cafe and Chicago Dry

the fire and damage by water.
The fire was discovered about 2
o'clock m the morning and had
& gained considerable Roadway before
II the fremen arrived. For several
hours the fire ragged and continued
its path of destruction before being
4 finally brought under control. The
& absence of wind helped the firemen
in confirming the fire. The fire
proof brick wall of the Masonic
building withstood the ravages of the
flames and the building escaped
damage
The old Kearney building was
visited by fire a few years ago, the
second story being Quilted. The

cola's bail bond of $4,000 forfeited
Louis Santini, Hurley garage man,
signed Gianeola's bond.
A deputy United States marshal
was In Hurley the fore part of the
week with the warrant for Clan
cola's arrest but was unable to
locate his man. II IL believed that
Giancola left the country or is in
hiding. Fearing a jail sentence no
doubt prompted him to avoid facing
Judge Lu.e, as il is believed that the
judge would have jolted Giancola
hard, considering the fact that when
arrested he was an Iron county
deputy sheriff and sworn to up
hold and enforce the law.
The Hurley liquor law violators
were arrested in raids conducted by
federal men last August, liquor be-
ing found on the premises in most
cases. About the same time the
K;mball and Saxon violators were
also nabbed. They were indicted
by grand jury that was in session
at Madison last December.
That the results Of the proceedings
at Superior last week will have some
tendency to put a scare into Hurley
saloonkeepers and vendors and
makers Of moonshine is the general
belief The possibility of serving
Jail sentence does not lend so much
encouragement to taking chance
with the liquor laws as does mere
fine.
