LAW ENFORCEMENT, OLD AND NEW

When Justice NJ B. Rosenberg of the Wisconsin Supreme
court gave address short time before the Forngh
Literary club in Baraboo there discussion by the
members law enforcement R. B. Grggs stated that
1907 law passed prevent further importation of
slaves and that during the hrte of years after
ward the number struggled into this country amounted to
100000 annually The figures thought to be impossi
be and seriously questioned during the evening in
question.
Mr. Grggs has found the following statement from Eli
zabeth TIton Chairman of the Woans Allied Organize
lions Of Massachusetts, and National Chairman Legislation
of the Congress of Parents and Teachers The statement
says:
The United States abolished the SlaveTrade in 1907.
In 1910, Madison is calling the Nation to put down
the Illicit traffic In 1917 Monroe is calling for the
forcenent of laws In the thirties the illicit traffic
bazes into 100000 slaves smugged annually.
But in 1871 we find in our Congressional Record the
last act against the SlaveTrade. It took more than
five years after the Prohibition Slave Law passed
to enforce it. 1t took two generations.
Take again Constitution, passed in 1887. It
made nation--on paper. Then came the struggle
to enforce the law Washington died in 1899 in despair
that the Constitution would ever become working
reality John Marshall took up the fight against de-
Capitalization and for federation He died in despair
that we should become nation But we came
through despite the Doubling Thomases and the
who saw money in local option than in national
ism. But it took than five years to through.
Would any great reform have come to pass had five
years been the limit in which to bring the unconvinced
minority up to the ideal and work out all the ntr-
cacies of enforcement
Read little history, think little longer probe a
little deeper and join the ranks of those who enlist not
for five years, but for the duration of the
It will be from the above that it required many years
before the smuggling of slaves brought to end 1t
follows that those who trying to enforce the liquor laws
should not be discouraged Speed limits do not apply to
forms This nation is but few years from the prohibition
after of years the booegger expected to be
fewer.

Big Bird Meeting

Did you ever attend the Grand
Autumn Council Of the Ancient
and Honorable Order of Sand Hill
Cranes It is held every year on
the big marsh in Fairfield.
Excepting the airplane, the sand
hill crane is the largest bird that
flies in this section.
1t is much different from the blue
crane or great blue heron, which
frequents the rivers and sloughs !;
being more like a turkey and 1iv-
ing en- the same kinds of food and
is said to be equal to turkey for
roasting.
The council was held this year in
VIM. DeGroff's field. about half a
mile from where I was working
but l could hear every word as
we'll as II I'd been right there.
There had been parties and feeds
and family gatherings foT. a month,
at which considerable noise had
been made, but on the morning OF
Oct. 9 there was an inch OF snow
which was the cause for tire coun-
ell.
Criers were sent up and down
the marsh to warn any stragglers.
This seemed unnecessary to me
as their raucous calling could be
heard two miles from the marsh.
The noise they made was equal to
an Indian war dance or an old
fashioned sewing bee; and you
have to be well up in crane lore
TO get much more sense out of it.
Some were for staying awhile as
they thought the snow wouldn't
last, but old Wise Head. their
leader, told them that the u1-
changeable law OF all cranedom
was, "Safety First" Better go a
week eooner than necessary than
stay an hour too late.
It was finally decided that they

:, Arthur Wilkinson LIS clung to
his team for pleasure driving
through all the advance of the auto
mobile. At last he has yielded and
purchased a car. Like many 9th
ers he has found there is no pleas
ure in driving horses with a pro-
cession of cars whisking along the
highways. He will sell his team
and join the remainder of humanity
in the twentieth century method of
pleasure riding. Mr.. Wilkinson
was formerly a Baraboo liyeryman
and has seen the last proprietor
crowded out of business by the mot
or machine. A quarter of a GEN.
fury has worked wonders in travel.
Some days ago a dog appeared
at the home of Mrs. J. w. Davis and
was apparently lost and nearly
starved. Price Williams was re-
pairing the roof at the time and
decided he would like a dog to ac-
company him in his little trips
about towf. The animal was ev-
identity accustomed to the auto
mobile and may have been left be-
hind by a tourist The dog has
dropped into a new home and may
be seen in sublime happiness in the
Williams machine as it rolls along.

Walter J. Pratt, Portage, garbage
collector, lost two pigs in singu-

garbage collected about the city to
hogs. Two of these died last
week under peculiar symptoms and
upon making post mortem exam.
ination it was found that each had
a razor blade lodged in its throat.
Some thoughtless householder had
evidently thrown these discarded
blades into the garbage can where
they became imbedded In portions
of refuse that the pigs had consum-
ed with fatal result.
