Protection inconsistency

We see in several exchanges COM
plants about Congress cutting down
the appropriation for improving the
Delaware River from $500, 900 to $780,.
900. The engineers have decided that
a 26-foot channel at low water from
Philadelphia is necessary to accommod.
ate foreign trade. and because of not a
a deep enough channel steamers have
been withdrawn from the Philadelphia
line. We cannot see consistency of the
city of Philadelphia appropriating a
large sum and urging Congress to ap-
propriate another large sum to encour-
age foreign trade, when the people by
the largest majority of any city in the
country vote for a high tariff barrier to
keep out and hinder foreign trade. If
foreign shipping trade is fallen off from
Philadelphia is no more than might be
expected from the desire expressed at
the ballot box. 1t would be more con
sistent to urge appropriations for the
deepening of creeks which flow into the
Delaware so that internal home trade,
the'boast of the protectionists, can be
more fully developed. Why dig bitches
for foreign tramps when our own home
vessels get stuck on bars and have to
wait for tides? The most neglected
stream, for the. amount of traffic, is Sa-
lem Creek to Courses Landing. Thou
sands are spent on other streams to
hundreds on this which needs it more.

Harvest Home Festival.

Prof. John G. Freeman, Professor OF
English Literature at University Of
Wisconsin since 1879. AS a teacher OF
English literature DR.. Freeman has
had full measure of success. He is
exact, popular and inspiring. He has
seen the classic places of the old world,
and these mighty names in literature,
are not merely names to him, but
spirits that still live to animate these
present times.
On a whole he is to be reckoned a
speaker rather than a writer. 1t is as al
orator that DR.. Freeman has won his
most gratifying successes. For six
teen years the State, in a large sense,
has been his classroom.
AS a lecturer he is both wise and
witty. He sees things in the concrete
and is picturesque. Through anecdote
and Illustration he holds his ideas be-
fore the mind.
His lectures and his writings are
crowded with apt quotations and happy
illusions, suggesting the literary &C
QUESTION of a Lowell or aH Emerson,
and then through all, fine humor and
wit; for it bubbles and flows as we'll as
flashes. He lectures on many themes.
Perhaps the most popular ones are in
his travels, and on England's literature
and her literary men. His delivery is
so simple and unpretentious, so easily
wins it's way, that we forget to call il
eloquent. q. Of " 1916 Badger.

THE WAY TT rs VIEWED.
The Race Track Near Russell and What
il Means TO Kenosha.

John Conden is the man who made
the final payment which secured the
Henry Meyers property at the state
line for the race track people. He
sealed the bargain with twenty five
800 bills and got the title to the land.
Local sporting men and most of the
merchants along Main street seem to
be highly enthusiastic over the loca-
ton of the institution within this
county. They argue that il will make
money flow here like water and will
be of greater business utility than a
factory employing 500 men. They say
that money is no object to sports, that
the money will not be taken out of
here, but on the contrary will be large
ly dumped in. Mr.. Conden says it villa
be the policy OF his people to do all the
business possible here in Kenosha. 1t
is expected that at least 800 to LOCO
horses will be kept at the track. 1t
takes an average of one man and a half
to each horse to conduct that part of
the business, and he proposes that as
many local men as can be had shall
hold all situations. The promises held
out include one that the track shall be
conducted in just as orderly way as a
church fair, and that the company viii
employ its own police force and detect
ives for the purpose of keeping all
crooks and criminals out. Altogether
there will be a force of from 1,6OO to
LOO men employed. He states that
he wants 100 teams and 200 or 300
times as many men at once to begin
the work on the track so that it can be
opened by Sept. l. 1t is said that some
of the farmers in the immediate neigh
borhood of the track are highly elated
over the tracks locating there. They
claim to have a good market now for
their oats, grain and hay. There will
be five side tracks put into the new
track and Mr.. Conden figures that
there will be at least from 600 to 1000
people brought up from Chicago there
every day. Of course they will come
up on excursion trains and 60 back on
them A large number of people along
Main street today expressed great sor~
row that the track had not come closer
to town.

THAT RACE TRACK SETTLED
The Hankins Crowd Have Purchased the
Necessary Property.

There will be race track in full
operation by Sept. l or soon thereafter
on the old Dick Thomas property. And
more, it will be the Hapkins- Burke
Cochran-et al. crowd in possession.
This matter was set at rest today. The
ground has been purchased, the papers
necessary to the deal are on file with
Register of Deeds Tarbell and the
matter will be pushed right along from
now on.
| That in short is the purport and
probable result of deal made in real
Estate today by Herbert M. Theirs. He
has been here for several days fig
uring on the property. Just before noon
he had an abstract of the land drawn
up and brought down to date, and, it
being clear, the title was transferred
by Henry Meyers, Jr., of Milwaukee,
the owner of the land. There are
forty acres of land in the deal. 1t is
located at point about eight miles
southwest of Kenosha on the Chicago,
Milwaukee & ST. Paul railroad and
Russell, H., will be the station. 1t is
said to be the intention of the new
owners TO put a track in at once and
have it in full operation by Sept. l.
1t is understood that the railroad has
made the necessary excursion rate the
crowd wanted of 81 for the round
trip from Chicago.
As will be remembered this is the
same crowd about whom there was
considerable talk last year. They now
operates track at Roby, Indiana. Prior
to going to that place they were driven
out of Chicago. Now they are driven
from Indiana. In Wisconsin there is
no law which bears directly on pool
selling, so they will be able to con-
duct the place in this state at least
until the next state legislature meets,
when, it is said, bill will be present
ed from this county against it.
When it becomes known through
out the county what the purpose of
the purchasers of that property are
there will undoubtedly be a howl of
protest sent up.
