KENOSRA,S Possibilities

L
Twenty years ago the clashing of sabres
and the blast of the bugle were familiar
sounds in this quiet city. Many who were
then bold soldier boys have passed away or
been scattered far and near. The children
of those days are men and women now. They
have witnessed the sudden growth of many
cities. Chicago, for instance, has trebled its
population within that time. But Kenosha
has changed very little. Why is a problem
that has puzzled the heads of many wiser
than the writer. Thinking that possibly he
might offer some remedial hints, the requests
OF friends are acceded to, and hence this note.
A denizen of city is struck with the
village.like character of this place. What
time Jehu had to get us to our destination in
this city when we had only the name of the
citizen and no street or number to guide US
for there were none. A heavy lax surely
does not prevent the streets from being
named and the houses being numbered: A
few tin signs for the street corners while
the citizens numbered their houses, would
give Kenosha city airs at once. When the
Council are about it let them get rid of
:" Main" street-changing it to some avenue
or boulevard. The portion below the park
certainly is worthy of it, This change
would give stimulus to grass growing and
tree planting that would enhance the beauty
of this already beautiful city.
All these small cities and towns along the
lake must become suburbs of either Chicago
or Milwaukee. But as such they may grow
and prosper. Where can | spend week of
conValescence near Chicago to the best ad-
vantage? was decided in favor of quiet,
beautiful Kenosha. A thousand people can
be induced next summer to follow my ex-
ample, if they only knew what delightful
city you have. How can it be done? Easy
enough. Those who have houses and rooms
to let, put them into the hands of an agent
here who would advertise in the Chicago
papers, i" Houses TO rent for summer resi-.
dences, " Rooms to let, with or without
board, by the week, in the quiet, healthful,
pleasant city of Kenosha, within easy dis
lance of Chicago" The replies to the many
inquiries should be accompanied by a pam.
phlet entitled, " Kenosha as Summer and
Health Resort" You doubtless have some
enterprising genius to write this up, and who
would get advertisements enough to more
than pay for the trouble and cost. Mer;
chants are not slow to appreciate the value
of thousand or more extra customers every
summer. " Kenosha is delightful place to
recruit in is the general verdict that ought
to make this an attractive city for those
seeking health and rest. A word to the wise
is sufficient. I. c. DUNCAN, Nj. D.

JEWETT.
a

The business men of the town, the men,
women and children, all who knew Mr.. B. r.
Jewett in his life time, were kept in anxious
suspense for several days while he was
Frustrated ON his bed of death, and when the
fact Of his death fell upon the ears of many
unwilling to hear that he had really crossed
the fatal river, the entire city became house
of mourning.
Mr.. Jewett was born in Broome county,
N. Y, in 1918. He moved to Ohio in 1888,
where he resided until 184l, when he came
to Kenosha, or Southport, as it was then
called. Afterward he lived for awhile in
Beloit and then returned to Kenosha, and
has lived here for the last twenty years.
Perhaps there are few men who have so
thoroughly ingratiated themselves to the
hearts Of the people as our lamented friend
No person who went to him went away
needy, if worthy of assistance. No man
ever asked favor of him which was not
granted. He was always kind, always gen.
erous, always ready and willing to do even
more than could be expected from him, and
when the news went flying through the town
that Mr.. Jewett was dead, many man I'M
used to weep felt the tear of sorrow trickle
down his cheek. They could only say,
"another man has gone; we have lost one of
our best citizens" The most heartfelt
sympathy is extended to the family by an
entire community, who certainly feel that
what is their loss is his great gain.

The New York Times calls attention
to the fact that it has been authoritative
ly announced ''that't the Readjusters of
Virginia, Democratic and Republican.

journal thinks, is somewhat of novel;
ty in political nomenclature, for though
we have heard of Garfield Republicans
and Tilden Democrats, it is new idea
to have party which is neither Repub"
lican nor Democratic call itself simply
Arthurite." But the Times thinks that
tit is better for the future of Virginia
and better for the general interests OF
country that eight out Of the ten repre-
sentatives whom the State sends to the
lower house of Congress should be elect
ed as avowed supporters of the Presi-
dent than that they should go as mouth
pieces of the Bourbon opposition to
him"

think the boasted Liberal party of 'Vir-
ginia should have turned out to be the

THE SHEEP KILLING Docs -,On
Friday morning last Mr. J. Massie
Smith, who lives near Shadwell Depot,
on the Chesapeake and Ohio railway,
found twenty four of his flock of sheep.
consisting of but few more than that
number, dead in the field, having been
killed during the night by worthless
dogs. Mr. Smith had refused $3.50 for
the lot the day before. and shortly after
he discovered that they had been killed
the gentleman who had been negotiat
ing for their purchase arrived at his
house and proposed to hand over to him
the amount of $175, which he asked for
them. This is the sort of work which
the ours are doing all over the State, and
yet our legislators refuse to tag them out
of existence rom fear of losing the votes
of their owners. It is burning shame
that they have not more independence
and courage.-Ch Charlottesville Chronicle.
