The results of the election on Tuesday
were so close in several cases that 1T is
thought that recount Of the vote ought to
be taken in order to make result certain.
There were SO many chances for mistakes
in the count that it would be miracle al
most if some had not crept in and but very
few errors would be sufficient if they were
on the right side, TO reverse the result. 1t
is the duty of those interested to see that
the vote is re- counted in all the wards. NO
one is charged with intentional fraud, but
when a mistake in counting or reading OFT
two ballots might reverse the result IN one
case and change of 4 ballots would change
it in another, it would be almost folly not to
take means to have the result certified. AT
this writing it has not been decided definite
" to have the vote re-counted, but 1t is al
most certain to be decided before this paper
reaches the reader.
A dispatch in the Chicago Ifibnne OF
last Friday calls attention to the fact that
Joliet, Ill, has captured big brass factory.
The part Of the dispatch relating to it is as
follows:
The other big industry that will locate
here in the Woodruff Metallic Manufac-
turing company, at the head OF which are
two Joliet men backed by Chicago capaital-
lists They will manufacture brass furni-
ture and brass folding bed. The capital
stock is $4,000. They have purchased
thirty-three acres north Of the city and
will erect thereon at once the necessary
bindings. The advantages offered by this
citv to manufacturers is attracting wide
spread attention, and there are half dozen
firms now figuring on locating here. The
uneoualed shipping facilities, the $1,000
saloon license, and the cheapness of build
inc material to be found here are factors
that are now attracting the attention of
capitalists and manufacturers.
A more careful attention to the enforce
ment of existing liquor laws would place
Kenosha in better position to ask manu-
facturers to locate here. Let the new May
or see to it that none of the blame for
crime and disorder rests upon his head.
The trial of VIM. Gates for the murder
of Eugene L. Sullivan October 18th, 1889,
ended last Friday morning, resulting IN the
conviction of Gates and his sentence to the
State Prison for life. The remainder OF the
Jury was obtained very quickly Thursday
morning and the presentation OF evidence
was begun. Attorney Cavanagh, after IN
vestigating the subject carefully, decided to
withdraw the plea of insanity. This was
contrary to public expectation, bat 1t great
" simplifed matters. If the plea OF Insan-
itv had been urged, the case would have oc-
cupied a much longer time The witnesses
that would have been necessary to estab-
lish the insanity Of the prisoner, with the
arguments and cross examinations would
have strung the case out over week. The
examination of the witnesses for the State
occupied all day Thursday and short time
Friday morning. There were no pleas by
either attorney. The Court charged the
;urv and after an absence of about thirty
minutes the jury returned with verdict OF
guilty. Judge Winslow asked the prisoner
IF be had anything to say why he shoulc
not he sentenced, to which Gates said he
had not After the sentence which the
Conrt passed upon him of Imprisonment for
life, the Judge asked the prisoner II III
killed Eugene Sullivan. The prisoner
said Eyes, killed him" The Judge then
asked him how he killed him, to which
Gates replied that he did it with knife
making motion across his throat at thu
same time to show where he cut him. The
prisoner answered several other question:
and did SO very plainly and with apparent
understanding of the situation, but he failed
to display particle of emotion or give an,
evidence that he cared what was going t.
be done with him.
