Leiden tit'Movement Present Plans Wih. "to Harvard Audiem* & ; [Harvard Herald] Hw imperative need of organisation in every town and voting precinct in McHenry county "was urged on Mon­ day evening by Geo. McGinnis, dis­ trict superintendent of the Anti-Sa- loon league, and E. H. Wade, field worker for the same organization, at w 'Phone 58-X A. Bohlander . - Prompt Delivery % meeting held at the Presbyterian church in this city. H. J. Ferris, pres­ ident of the Law and Order league, presided and related detail work the local organisation has performed dur­ ing the last yearf Mr. McGinnis outlined in detil the scope of work mapped out by the An­ ti-Saloon league, which will enter every town and voting district in Illi­ nois and organize for the big fight in the State wide primaries of next Sep­ tember. The real battle is at the pri­ mary and not at the general election, Mr. McGinnis asserted, as the records show that 80 per cent of the men nom­ inated at primaries win at elections. For that reason the great task is to arouse a sentiment that will induce indifferent voters to cast their ballots at the primary. Too frequently the stay-at-home vote on primary day is large enough to elect "dry" candidates and defeat "wet" ones, he said, but "dry" adherents seem to lose sight of the importance of appearing at the polls on primary day. The last legislature was' deadlocked on the "wet" and "dry" question, Mr. McGinnis said, the "wets" having seven majority in the house and the "drys" a lead of one in the senate. The "dry" loss was sustained because of the defeat of 23 third party Pro­ gressives who had voted the Anti- Saloon league program in the previ­ ous legislative session and who were indorsed for re-election by the league as a matter of justice. The third party of 23 served to give the "wets" the lead of seven in the lower house and thus block all expected "dry" leg­ islation, but the strength of the "drys" was such as to retain on the statute books all acts passed by previous ses­ sions, such as the township local op­ tion law, the woman's suffrage act and like legislation designed to curb John Barleycorn, the speaker asserted. Going into the status of the situa­ tion in the eighth district, Mr. Mc­ Ginnis said 11 of the 17 towns in Lake county are "dry;" that Lake county would vote overwhelmingly "dry" if county option could be obtained; that every town in Boone eounty is "dry;" that McHenry count? is "dry'l without question and if county option pre­ vailed there would be no saloons in this county. The county being the unit in taxation, it is only fair to ask for a like act respecting the submis­ sion of the liquor question. It should be a county proposition, he said, and he expressed optimism in relating conditions as they appear to him from reports received from the three coun­ ties of the legislative district, where a precinct organization is now under way to the end that the district shall have representatives in both houses at Springfield who will carry out the wishes of the people on the liquor question, he asserted. Relating incidents in the career of State Senator Olson, who had voted the "dry" program until the last ses­ sion, Mr. McGinnis said it is the plan of the "dry" forces within the three counties of the district to combine and work unitedly for a candidate who will vote for county option and the entire "dry" program of the Anti-Saloon league, which wants the retention of the woman's suffrage act and similar legislation respecting the liquor prob­ lem. The "wets" are carrying on organ­ ization plans in every county of the state, Mr. McGinnis asserted, the United societies of Chicago being the parent organization having the lead, but included also are the brewers and distillers of the state. They will pick candidates of their choice in every district and give them the force of their support because they realize the effect of the great army that is ar­ rayed against them, including throngs who are seeing a new light and who will marshal to the polls next Septem­ ber. Field Secretary Wade devoted his talk largely to a recital of the plans that have 'been formulated respecting the organization in each voting pre­ cinct. Every county in the state will be covered and while it may seem early to start ten months in advance of the Btate primaries, the fact that there are 102 counties to be covered makeS it incumbent, he said, that work be taken up now and each dis­ trict select its committeeman. Later a county convention of committeemen will be held and thereafter a conven­ tion of district committeemen, at both of which more detailed plans will be mapped out and the organization put in shape for the big battle Sept. 18, 1916. Mr. "Wade expressed gratification at the condition of affairs apparent to him after a tour of Harvard and the town of Chemung, where, he says, the "dry" forces are in good shape, the local Law and Order league remain­ ing intact and being responsible for much of the gratifying situation ex­ isting. The auxiliary women's organ­ ization is another'* potent force he credited with good work and the sit­ uation here is excellent, he declared, but it is imperative that a precinct organization be perfected. After a general discussion, in which Rev. C. J. Wilson, recently called to the pastorate of the Harvard Presby­ terian church, took a leading part, it m&t the town of Chenrixng until a later date and that President Ferris of the Law and Order league be vested with power to make such selection* aftar conferring with other offldals of the local organization. Rev. C. J. Wilson was an important personage in local option campaigns at Rockford before eoming to Harvard and his residence here will mean the addition of a valuable aid to optionists of Harvard and McHenry county. He is a fluent speaker, is conversant with the work in all its details and his at* tractive personality is sure to prove an asset in any contests along this line that may come up within the next year. In fact, local option adherents point to the new pastor as one of their strongest acquisitions and are pleased to enroll him as a wining and capable worker.

Lyon Are Circuit court reconvened «m Monday morning with Judge Donnelly presid* ing. A memorial service, which had been arranged in memory of the late John B. Lyon of Harvard, the oldest jnem<. ber of the McHenry county bar. A committee, consisting of Attor­ neys V. S. Lumley, C. J. Hendricks and B. F. Manley, presented the fol­ lowing resolutions: Whereas, It has pleased Divine Providence to take from our midBt and from the scenes of his temporal labors and the courts in this state one of our old, esteemed and respected profes­ sional brothers, viz., John B. Lyon of Harvard, who was an able, upright and conscientious citizen and barrister, and Whereas, The members of the Mc­ Henry county bar, who worked with him in his professional capacity and profited by his example and courtesy, his fairness and dignity, which he al­ ways carried with him either on the streets or in the court, which, fact can be verified by a large concourse of professional as well as laymen friends, who affectionately sympathize with the family now deprived of his love and protection, his wise counsel and good judgment; therefore be it Resolved, By the members of the1 McHenry county bar that it is bqtj • just that we pay a tribute to his mem-« orv. regretting sincsrsly His rcmovsV from our midst and sympathizing fotf those who are bereft of his love and' affection. As the nestor of this bar, he com-' manded the respect and admiration of all those who had the pleasure of his acquaintance and the advantage of his wise and judicial counsel. He was clean of heart, clear of brain and a just and patriotic citizen. His coun sel and advice were sought not only by a large clientage, but by lawyers and judges as well. He was a hard, patient and diligent toiler in his pro­ fession and lent his every effort in the protection of his clientage to the end that every man, woman or child, regardless of conditions in life, might have equal rights to the protection under the law, and this cardinal prin­ ciple with him was a predominate characteristic, as manifested thru a long career as a practitioner at the McHenry county bar. It may justly be said of him «w m lawyer, he stood in a class by himself; he was strong in his conviction that an honest and just administration of the law was the only course to pursue in a successful professional career. Be it further Resolved, That these resolutions be ordered spread upon the records of this court and that a copy thereof be transmitted to the family of the deceased; also that the clerk of this court be authorised to send a copy of the same to each newspaper in Mc­ Henry eounty.

Joelyn de­ livered an eloquent tribute on the* life, character and legal ability of Mr. Lyon. He was followed by Judge. Smiley,. Attorneys C. P. Bamte, C, B. Whitte- mofce, E. D. Shurtleff, E. H. Wait©, Paul Donovan, A. J. Mullen, C. Percy Barnes, C. T. Allen, W. R. Cairns, Floyd Eckert, R. F. Marshall, Palmer and V. S. Lumley, all of whom spoke in the highest terms of respect of their deceased brother lawyer. Judge Donnelly ended with a fine and fitting tribute of-his admiration for the high character and great legal ability of his old friend and co-worker in the legal profession. Attorney Ray Lyon, a son of the deceased, was present and expressed his thanks for the tributes paid to his deceased father. Must Not Walk on Tracks Anyone walking on railroad tracks is subject to a fine or imprisonment or both, according to a law passed by the recent legislature. That in formation will be somewhat of < shock to those who are accustomed to country rambles via railroad tracks. It's a fact, however, according to chapter 551, laws of 1915. The max­ imum penalty is a $50 fine, imprison­ ment in jail for thirty days or both fine and imprisonment. The law does not apply to railroad employes, news­ paper reporters and persons whose business with the railroad company requires them to use the tracks, like stock shippers, etc. , . .A i. >.» a I • ... •«. •&.&> rR young people to be deterred from starting sa V save because their start must necessarily be smalL' No start is too small, providing It is BUT a start.

The action arises because the Wauconda woman holds that the four men made a habitual drunkard of her husband. The amount asked is for loss of services during the last five years. Because of the fact that her husband has become a confirmed inebriate, Mrs. Maurer has had to take the place of the head of the household in support­ ing her family. A son was originally included in the suit as one of the plaintiffs, but at the present time Mrs. Maurer is the only plaintiff. These men are held by Iyer to have brought about the downfall of her husband: A. E. Kirwan, George Her- tel, M. H. Anders and Dennis Murphy. A. V. Smith and W. C. Dunn are representing the plaintiff; W. A. Deane and J. G< Welch the defend- ants. . _ Crooked Stove Man at A swindler with a brand new gaittfe is at work in this vicinity at present and if he calls on you you will do well to order him off the place.
