A son of Fl. R. Lavey has made "a
clock and locomotive as an ornamental
mantel piece which he has on eXhib-
ton at the G.. A. Dewey hardware
store. 1t is a stationary piece, but by
winding it and switching a lever the
drive wheels are made to revolve and
work like the regular machine.
Things are just humming at the
Sieg & Walpole factory. The office is
all being remodeled, a vault being put
in and beautiful winding stair case
will lead up to the second floor offices.
There are now Ito men at work there
and the company contemplates putting
in an office force of from fifteen to
seventeen clerks.
AN article in the Milwaukee Seaati-
mel this morning under a Kenosha date
line tells how DR.. Smith secured an
order from the health officer of the city
to go out to r. S. Houston's herd OF
cattle That would sound queer to
State Veterinarian Scott who acted on
complaint of some Of Mr.. Houston's
neighbors.
The snow made it hard for the
railroads. The newspaper train due
here at o'clock, was four hours late.
The train from the west did not get in
until nearly noon. The switch engine
ran off the track in the Balm yard and
another engine sent up from Wauke-
gan to help out, met the same fate on
Market street crossing.
mot less than thirty young men
are idle in Kenosha today, hanging
around saloons and street corners.
Not one of them but might have a
good place would he but work--work
intelligently and faithfully. The
young man who sits around waiting
for " something good" is pretty apt to
find himself sliding toward something
/ bad.
A sensation was reported to have

AS to whether the publisher of this
paper is awarded the printing of the
supervisors proceedings or not is
matter OF mighty little moment to him
or the public at large. As to whether
the charges made by the editor of the

it, was resorted to, i'll order to secure
tho same, is amatter, Of vast import

IRIS very close corner a fellow is il
when he will go SO far as to distorr q
section of the statutes in order to iusti-
| fy his position. Mr.. Culley in his paper
has stated that the awarding of the
printing of the supervisors proceedings
to this paper was illegal, because the
publisher is q member of the board,
and quotes from section 4549 as fol-
lows:
Sec. 4549-Any officer, agent, or
| clerk of the State, Or of any county,
| town, school district, school board,
| city Or village, who
shall have, reserve or acquire, any pc
cuniary interest, directly or indirectly,
present or prospective, absolute or con-
ditional, in and manner in any pur-
chase or sale, of any personal or real
property, or thing in action, or in any
contract or bid in relation to the same,
or in relation to any public service, i
made by, to. or
with him, in his official capacity or en-
ployment, or in any public or official
service, or who shall make any con-
tract or pledge, or contract any in
debtedness OF liability, or do any other
act, in official capacity, or in any pub
lie or official service, "
shall be punished by iNprison-
ment in the Jail, not more than one
year, or by fine not exceeding five hnn-
dred dollars.
Nom If tho 0hoyo c+o t1+c rao6c a G
Mr.. Galley would have it, it would
seem that he had plain case but he
omitted accidentally of course) very
important clause Of the section, which
reads "mOt authorized by RaaC" and
which should have followed after the
words official service" in the fourth
from the last line. This put an entire
ly different phase upon the matter, be-
cause the printing of the county board
proceedings is not only authorized by
law" but it is compulsory, the law
says it shall be done. The object OF
the section referred to is to prevent
public officials from creating any work
for the purpose of letting the same to
any member of a public body, and not
intended to refer to public service re-
quired by law. We arrive at this de-
cision after obtaining legal advice in
the matter and we shall go ahead
with the printing contract just the
same, Mr.. Culley's mis-interpreted
statute to the contrary notwithstand-
ing, and if we are wanted to serve a
term for the offense ~ our address is
352 Park avenue, and if fine should
be assessed against us it is collectlble,
us there are no MnSGtisfed Judgments
against us in any court of record.

up for reconsideration By member
from the county on the ground that
the Gazette had no circulation through
out the county towns and no one would
have an opportunity to read the pro-
ceedings until they should be issued III
pamphlet form next March. The bid
from this Office included tw0 papers,
the EVENING News and TELEGRAPH
COURIER, and upon reconsidering the
vote of the day before, the board de-
cided that considering the services to
be rendered, the bid from this office
was the cheapest and was awarded the
work accordingly. This in brief, is
the story of the county job" and we
only refer to il because of the charges
printed in the Gazette which if not re-
filted might be understood as an adj
mission upon our part that they were
true.

SOMETHING TO DROP.
Wholesale Arrests TO Be Made By the
City Tomorrow


People who think the city ordinances
calling for the cleaning of the snow off
the sidewalks, was passed for fun and
meant nothing more, will wake up to-
morrow morning to find themselves as
sessed fine. Up to the time of going
to press Supervisor Boyle had out
about fOrtV-fiVe complaints against
people who have failed to comply with
the law, and tomorrow are to be ar
rested and taken before a justice of
the peace to be fined. There is
to be no singing out of any
body for a test case, but the storm
is to drop all over at once, SO
that the charge Of favoTitsm cannot
lie. So long as William Boyle has
charge of the streets he proposes to see
the laws enforced in relation to them.
The law provides that the SNOW shall
be removed from all sidewalks within
twenty-fouF hours after its fall. This
has not BEEN done in the number Of in
stances mentioned Undoubtedly
there are to pc more of the COM
plants. 1t is proposed to make the
movement sweeping one and to- take
in all offenders. Look Qua for some
thing to drop.

The Case as it Stands.

The democratic organs are not to be
blamed, OF course. for trying to find
some consolation, however small and
doubtful, in their present misfortune;
but so far as the eye can see there is
nothing of the kind to be- found. 1t is
all we'll enough to say that parties have
been beaten before only to be success
full i'll the next election, and that the
lessons Of adversely often make the
best preparation for future service.
But this is not q case that comes with
in such rule. The fact is that the
present democratic defeat is simply q
repetition and continuation of disaster
The run Of bad luck began in 1898, as
5o0a as the people became aware of
tho true meaning of democratic rule,
and it has been growing worse ever
since In 1924. the popular feeling of
disappointment and Indignation rose to
a pitch that turned the house of repre-
SontattVes over TO the republicans; and
this year The expression of anger and
disgust with regard to the manner in
which the affairs Of the Government
have been conducted is still stronger.
This makes nonsense of all talk about
local conditions aud transient influence
os. 1t is easy to see that the voters
OF tno country are a1tuated by spirit
OF positive and uncompromising hostil-
1ty TO the party in power. and that they
viii not rest satisfied with anything
siloCt OF the complete restoration Of re-
publican politics aud. methods.
1t is true that there arc no absolute
ny sure things i'll politics. The unex-
pectod is always possible, that is to say
aud unforeseen causes frequently inter-
vone TO change the whole aspect of
things, There is no reason, however,
to suppose that anything will happen
between now aud next November to
transfer the existing advantage of the
repubIicans to tho democrats. AS the
the matter now stands, the result of
election OF 1896 is q turegono conclu-
siou. Tue republicans are certain to
cacry every northern state, and prOba
by three or four southern ones. There
is q decided drift against the democrat
ic party on general principles over the
country, and from present appearances
it will have hard work 20 maintain its
asceudency i'll states where it has here
toforo had things all its own way
The same forces which brought the
republican triumphs Of last year and
this wear to pass will he in operation
next year, and it is not TO he thought
shat they will be any less formidable
and effective. There is vague
chance, to be sure, that the Re-
puhliCans in congress may do some
thing during the approaching session
t0.iniure the present splendid pros
poets Of their party; but on the other
hand, it is far more likely that all the
laundering Will be done by the demo
Gratis In short, so fag as anything
can he suro that has not yet actually
occurred, President Cloyeland's sue
ceseor: is sure 60 be republican, and his
majority will probably be one Of the
largest in the whole history of Ameri-
can politics.
