GOODBY A. M. TRAIN

The morning train to Galena pulled
out for the last time Saturday and ap-
parently no in Lancaster cares as not
soul was present to see it leave,
putting its swan song down the track
toward Liberty station. A Herald re-
porter was there but reporters are
soulless. Jack Thorn, the golden
voiced singer of the Galena run, car
oiled Tosti's "Goodby," and Cond. I. O..
Mills beat an accompaniment with his
ticket punch against a car seat. F. c..
Hauser, brakeman, was in the smoker
silently weeping while George Will
liams, engineer, and Paul Stoeckig.,
fireman, looked stoically ahead with
sad, tense expressions. Thus the Ga
lena Limited swept out of sight for
ever.

lena run and will be home Sundays

takes a braking run from Winona to
Elroy. Jack Thorn takes baggage

old Northwest. Fireman Stoeckig re-
mains here on freight run.

IKES ADVISE
ON WHERE TO
GO FISHING
Certain Areas Protected for
Benefit of TrOut.-GOOd
Places Elsewhere.

The early fisherman lured by the
first days of spring wants to avoid
streams that are closed for the pro-
lection of trout. In this vicinity
Platte, Pigeon and Grant, below Flora
Fountain (Slabtown) are open to an
glers providing the laws protecting
game fish are complied with.
Considerable time, money and labor
have been spent stocking other
streams in this vicinity. Dams have
been built and much necessary work
done to protect the thousands of small
fish planted. All this has but one pur-
pose: make good fishin' streams in
years gone by.
This work will not bear fruit I'M
less we all lend our support in help
ing to protect these fish. Section 1925,
of the Wisconsin Game Laws, says:
"Any stream which has been stocked
with trout cannot be fished for any
kind of fish during the closed season
for trout" The open season when
such streams may be fished is from
May l to August 81.
The streams in this vicinity which
have been stocked and to which this
protection is given are: Grant River
above Flora Fountain bridge (Slab-
town. to head waters and all of its
tributaries above the bridge, McPher-
son Branch of Platte river, Austin
Branch of Platte.
These streams while protected by
law should have the moral support of
each of us in their protection. While
those who have given freely of their
time and money to this cause intend
to protect their work with all the pow
err the law gives, each fisherman and
true sportsman is asked to do his bit
in helping protect these streams.

Pass Resolution to
Oppose Sunday Shows

Lancaster clergymen oppose the
idea to have Sunday evening enter
tainment at Grantland theatre (by no
means the Herald's OWN in the fol-
lowing resolution:
Resolved, that whereas an article
appeared in the editorial columns of
The Grant County Herald a weekly
newspaper, published in the city of
Lancaster in the issue of March 10,
1925, advocating Sunday evening
amusements, devoting any revenue of
such amusements and entertainments
towards paying the interest charges
upon the Grantland theater. And
Whereas, said article has been Civ
en- wide circulation in the said city
and vicinity. And
Whereas, the day named Sunday is
recognized both by civil and religious
law of this commonwealth to be used
solely for the worship of Almighty
God.
Therefore, we, the pastors of all the
Lancaster churches, view with alarm
this intentional violation of the Lords
day commonly called Sunday. And
Therefore, we refuse to accede to
the suggestion named in this news
editor to open Sunday for any secular
amusement whatsoever. And
Further, would counsel and advise
that any other movement designed to
violate the sanctity of the Lords day
be transferred to one of the other six
days of the week, there being in our
estimation sufficient time therein to
satisfy any and all desires.

CONVICTED BY
UNCLE SAM ASKS
BLAINE PARDON
Cassville Man Makes First
Plea of Kind in History
Sent Up for BOOtlegging.

MADISON-For the first time in his
tory, as far as is known, a federal
prisoner sentenced from the western
district of Wisconsin, has made appli-
cation to the governor for pardon.
]. L. White, sentenced by Judge
Claude z. Luse of the United States
district court to the house of correc-
ton at Milwaukee for four months,
is the applicant for pardon. The
United States district attorneys office
is protesting the application.
Under federal rules an application
for a parole or pardon may be made
by a federal prisoner to the governor
but before the parole or pardon is al
lowed, even if recommended by the
governor, it must have the approval
of the United States attorney general.
The application was made to Gov.
John j. Blaine on behalf of White by
George B. ClementsOn, Lancaster at
torney. White was arrested when fed
eral officers raided the Cassville brew
cry and received his sentence in jan
uary.

Spring Suggestions For
A Better Lancaster.

A Better Lancaster.
Here are a few suggestions which
If carried out, would make Lancaster
better town:
Make Grantland theatre work at full
capacity and earn its keep.
Develop the quarry bathing pond at
Schreiner park.
Clean up the streets and put in curb
and gutter preparatory to paving when
the town can afford it.
Clean up and paint up every shah
by store front and exterior.
Forget our differences and remem-
Der that we have the best, the pref
test and the most thriving town in
Southwestern Wisconsin.

IN JUSTICE COURT
Held for Second Offense.

Newton Edwards OF Cuba City was
before Justice Burrows last week on
a liquor offense alleged to have been
committed March l. He is awaiting
trial on another charge of the same
nature. He was held to the October
term of circuit court.
The Kaap hearing has been post
poned to April due to absence of a
witness.
Held for Abduction.
Seeley H Ellis, brought back from
Seattle, Wash, by Under Sheriff Lee
Bailie, was arraigned Monday on a
charge of "abduct, decoy and induce
Mrs. Gerald B. Nicholson to leave her
home" Mrs. Nicholson is the wife of
a British Hollow young man.
Defendant has secured the able aid
of McGeever Bros. of Dodgeville as his
counsel. Hearing is set for April IA.
1t is said that Ellis and the woman
were not living together when found
and that the state of Washington re-
fused to prosecute the young man for
an offense there, holding that no APP
parent crime had been committed. 1t
would follow that the state of Wis
consin must actually prove conspiracy
on the part of the pair or the charge
falls down. Mrs. Nicholson is still in
the west
Held For Abandonment
Defendant gave bond for $1,000 for
appearance April IA. He was immed-
lately re-arrested on charge of
abandonment of bis minor children.
This charge may stick. He also gave
bond on the second count, hearing
same day.
Unjust Story
There is an unfounded and unjust
story abroad that Justice Burrows
shows favoritism and leniency in Ii
quor cases. Be it known that the JUS
tees function in such cases is purely
that of an examining magistrate and
that he has no jurisdiction to try or
settle cases of this nature. The defen-
dant valves examination and the case
is automatically taken to the circuit
court, the justice merely performing
legal function.

Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1925-04-01

The above story was taken from the
State Journal. Mr. Clementson states
he acted on request of Whites
friends, with the knowledge, however,
that the governor has no power to
pardon in case of a federal conviction.
Such power is vested in the president.
The governor refused to act in the
case
