Kenosha Fair Buildings

1t may be out of place for this paper to
speak by way of criticism of our County FAN
Building. The present building has been er.
ected at considerable expense, the burden Of
which has, we suppose, fallen upon compari.
lively few. 1t is not usual that expenses
incurred in enterprises Of this kind, are shared
very equally. 1t is for this reason that sug.
gestions, contemplating much expense. are
offered with hesitancy
The construction of the Fair building is not
such as to exhibit articles to advantage It
Is hoped the time is not very far distant when
the present building will be remodel, or
what would be better, a new structure erected
to take the place of the present one. The
location of the County Fair Grounds has
ceased to be an open question it will prob
ably remain permanently where it now is. In
due time, therefore, there should be a Fair
building worthy the reputation of the county
But 1t was NOS our purpose at this time to
agltate the erection Of q new edifice, but
simply TO suggest some improvement of the
present one. The interior of the present Hall
has, q sombCr, uninviting look the walls
Aaye dark and cherries aspect. The artic-
les usually displayed for exhibition in the
main Hall are mostly specimens of art, taste
and refinement. They are composed largely
OF the skiltul contributions of the ladies OF
the county. That exhibitions of this kind
would appear to better advantage in a more
cheerful room, must be apparent It has
always been held that elegant furniture is lily
walls.
If the interior of Agricultural Hall were
only White-nade white with plastering and
whitewash, or even with whitewash alone, it
would heighten the beauty and give a more
oahilarating effect to such displays of taste
and genius, as were exhibited there at the
late Fair. There is fitness in cheerful sur
roundings, where art, skill and exquisite
flowers, invite visitors. These remarks are
intended in no spirit Of fault-finding-im-
provement in every department of human
enterprise, is the order of the day The same
line of argument, which is now every where
applied, to the erection of attractive
school edifces, holds equally well to the i'm
provement above suggested.
Our County Fair Grounds are pro 5ably m
surpassed by few in the State, except there
may be those larger in extent. The beautiful
grove near the central part, together other
favorable considerations that might be named,
make it attractive and desirable for the uses
to which II IS appropriated.

in issuing certificates OF registration oa Mon
day; but an unprejudiced examination Of the
facts shows that their course has received un-
deserved abuse. The original registers Of
voters for the respective wards and precincts
In this city were, and still are, in the hands Of
the Judges OF Elections, and they caused to be
prepared for the Commissioners of the late
election certified copies, from the said origi.
nal registers, of the names OF the voters in each
election precinct. The certificate of the ] Judges
OF Elections that the names of certain parties
appeared upon the original registration of
voters in this city, was all that the Commits.
sioners OF Elections had to authorize them to
receive or reject the ballot of any one claiming
the right to vote. That the judges might have
made out lists by furnishing certificate in
each case. will scarcely be questioned; and
when any rejected voter during the election
came to them, or majority Of them, and 1t
was found that the name of the voter was on
the origin al lists of registration, 1t was highly
proper and fair for them to give a certificate of
the fact. The judges are not confined to single
form of list and when it appeared that the
commissioners of Election could not find the
names Of persons actually registered on the
lists in their possession, there was good reason
to believe that the names had been overlooked
by the Commissioners or unintentionaily left
off the transcribed lists, and as honest men,
they could not refuse to fur nish any evidence
in their possession of the right of a party to
vote. And this is all they did. The certifi.
Gates did not amount to new registration, or
to any correction or alteration of the sold
reRistration:" but they were in tended TO lead

errors or omissions that might be found in

some cases to identify voters. a point which
