Battery G. of Fort Sheridan Goes Into
Camp Four Miles South OF the
City For Two Weeks
BIG GUNS ARE TO BE TESTED.
Soldiers Will Have Practice With Large
Guns Recently Purchased. - Major
Hosk1ns In Command.

After weeks delay Battery G, of
next two weeks in camp south of Ke-
nosha, reached the camp grounds at
noon today and this afternoon the lake
front for half of mile is dotted over
with the tents of the soldiers. The
march from Fort Sheridan began yes
terday, but the heavy roads made it
impossible for the entire trip to be
completed in one day and the soldiers
went into temporary camp just south
of Waukegan last night. The second
stage of the march was completed this
morning and the camp is now ready
for the reception of visitors.
The camp which is situated four
miles south of Kenosha on the Sheri-
dan road is an ideal one. A long
stretch of sand makes a splendid place
for the placing of the big guns of the
battery, while long, narrow green
sward to the westward forms a place
for the camp. Two miles of beach is
being utilized by the soldiers.
The battery consists of one hundred
and fifty men all mounted. It carries
three of the largest guns in use by the
army. Two of these guns are to be
used for experimental purposes, while
the third has been in use by the army
for some years.
The battery is under the command
of Major Hoskins, of Fort Sheridan,
and the immediate officers in charge
are Captain Allen and Lieutenant
Goodfellow, who carries the rank of
Ouartermaster.
It is expected that the soldiers will
remain in camp for at least two weeks
and it is possible that a longer time
will be added.
In the daily routine of work the bat
terry will live as on the battle field and
all the traditions of the army will be
carried out.
The soldiers had a little work at
building bridges before they reached
the camp this morning, as one of the
bridges on the road between Wauke-
gan and the camp was not sufficiently
strong to bear up the heavy guns and
it was necessary to throw up struc-
ture for a crossing. The soldiers
seemed to like the work and the bridge
was finished in short order.
During the time the battery is IN
camp Kenosha will see a great deal of
the soldiers, as they are expected to
hold their dress parade in this city
during the week.
Many of the leading experts of the
country are expected to visit the camp
during the week to inspect the work
ings of the guns which have been set

GILES CASE DISMISSED.
No Coloring Matter Found in Butterine.-
Other Court Items.

In the session of the Circuit court
yesterday afternoon the greater num-
Der of cases were quickly disposed of.
In the case of the State VS.. Peter
GILES, charging him with having sold
butterine containing coloring matter
in violation of the state law, District
Attorney Buckmaster entered nol1e
and the case was dismissed. The case
was brought up at the spring term of
court and Prof. Del Fontain, an emf
nent chemist, testified that no cOloring
matter had been found in the butterine
in conflict to the state law, and as the
state has since failed to produce any
evidence the case was dismissed. The
cases against Koh1er and Lauer were
also dismissed.
The case against Charles Loescher
was postponed as the most important
witness for the state was on the lakes
p1ying his trade as sailor, thus rend-
ering it impossible to secure his
evidence.
John Smith, former police officer,
who was arrested short time ago on
serious charge, was arraigned in
court and entered plea of guilty to a
minor charge. He was fined $50 or
six months in Jail.
The civil suit of Henry Wiesmann
against John McKune was decided by
the Jury in favor of the defendant
after they had been out two hours.

Rockford Firm of Contractors Will Do
the Paving For Street Railway
Company.
WORK TO START MONDAY NEXT.
Materials Are Now on the Road and the
Paving of the Street Should Be Com
pleted By Last of November.

There will be no delay in the paving
of Milwaukee avenue on account of
the contracts to be let by the Kenosha
Street Railway company for it is
stated on authoritive sources this
morning that B. J. Arnold and the
Kenosha Street Railway company will
let the contract for the work to the A.
E. Rutledge company, of Rockford.
which received the contract for the
city's portion'of the work on last Mon
day evening.
The work of paving the road will be
started on next Monday. The materi-
al for the road has already been
ordered and the brick are now on the
way to Kenosha. No delays are ex-
pected. For some time the Railway
company hado been figuring with Mr..
Rut1edge in regard to the contract for
the work and while the figures granted
the company have not been made
public it is supposed that they are
about the same as the figures made the
city by the company.
The brick to be used will, of course,
be burlington Ga1esburg brick as in
the contract between the Railway COM
pany and the city it is expressly stated
that the material used in the paving
shall be the same as ordered used by
the city.
The contractors for the work are
preparing to rush the work to COM
pletion as rapidly as possible and it is
expected that the street will be ready
for use by vehicles by the first of No
vember. In order to make this posi-
bic the company will be forced to en-
p1oy several hundred men and if pos
sible the men will be found in Keno
sha.
This work will make lots of labor in
Kenosha during the fall months and
the 1aboring men who are out of work
should have little trouble in finding all
the employment they desire, The en-
tire amount of the contract for the
work will exceed fifty thousand dol
lars.

REDUCED RATES FOR THE REUNION

The committee in charge of the ar
rangements for the reunion of the
First Wisconsin cavalry has received
word that the Western Passenger As
ISOLATION has granted reduced rates of
a fare and third to all those IN Wis
consin attending the Cavalry reunion.
This is valuable concession, and will
undoubtedly add to the number pres
ent at the reunion, as over two-thirds
of the survivors reside in Wisconsin.
One of the interesting features of the
cavalry reunion will be collection of
war relics belonging to members of
the regiment. Among those already
secured is the saber carried by Joe
Leonard, one of the captors of Jeffer-
son Davis. The accoutrements of
Colonel Torrey, who was wounded and
captured, and who died in a Southern
prison pen, have also been obtained.
Colonel Torrey was the brother of
Roscoe Torrey, of Brighton.

trouble will be that fair minds will
be unable to deny that just ground for
complaint exists. But what Is to be
done? Mr.. Bryan tells his union la
Dor hearers that the remedy for such
unfair inequalities In the distribu-
tion of wealth lies at the polls rather
than in mere unionism, aud In this he
Is right. Unionism at .est can only
benefit a part Of the producing classes,
and largely then at the expense of
the other part But to say that
through political action alone can eff.
fective remedial measures be secured
IL very easy compared with
the task Of defining just what we
should vote for at the polls. And
right here Mr.. Bryan becomes dumb
1t is certainly evident that the Kan
sas City platform will have to be re.
vised and amended materially to be-
come adequate to the matter in hand
AS promoter of greater equality in
wealth distribution its money plank is
shown to be of no use by the fact
that the Capitalization Of wealth seen
since 1896 has gone on under an ex
pansion in the money volume much
greater even than free silver would
have caused. Plainly the problem
centers around the control of monopoly
in all Its forms This is the great
question of the day in our domestic
politics, and in leaving the money
question in order to give more atten
tion to wise methods Of dealing with
this problem, there opens up to sc
powerful a popular agitator as Mr.
Bryan a field Of great public import
ance and usefulness. He and his
party must stand for something more
than mere protest against the ex'
isting order. 1t must present effective
reform measures which appeal to
thinking people rs such.

Twelve Of the twenty-one members
of the Executive committee of the
National Association of Manufacturers
had a meeting Wednesday at Phila-

q resolution calling for National

Among those present were men who
in the past have been strong advocates
of high protective tariff, and these
admitted that the time had come when
the United States should show more
liberal spirit in the interchange OF
commerce with other nations or its ex,
port trade would suffer.

employers? In whose prosperity are
we most concerned? The people OF
this country are justly alarmed at
the rapid growth of great monopo-
listic combinations, and none more
justly so than their workingmen,
who, single handed, would be the
easiest victims of their power. Why
should they not organize?
"That fairness and justice do not
always prevail in labor councils;
that unwise or selfish leaders some
times guide them astray, no more
condemns the wisdom Of these Or
ganizations than the misdeeds of
those elected to power and place in
our state and national governments
condemn the wisdom of political in
stitutions."
These sentiments constitute thei
major key of his life in dealing
with his fellowmen, and there is no
minor key of assembling about him.
FAITHFUL IN ALL CIVIC
DUTIES.
Absorbed as he has been In his
large Industrial affairs, he has never
failed to perform all his civic duties,
although he has never been an Of
flee holder or an Office seeker. No
public or private charity but touches
his pocket-book first and his sym
pathies afterward. No movement
for the furtherence of education but
receives his cordial assistance. The
founder of a hospital for children
his hand Is still helpful toward every
other movement to assuage and ale
viate the sufferings of mankind. In
short, Colonel Kilbourne is a human
being with human sympathies.
The above estimate of Colonel
Kilbourne is gratifying to his
friends in Columbus regardless of
politics, for they know that it is
truthful and that much more might
be said in praise of him. The taking
Of all of his employers to the Pan
American this week IS the latest
1 manifestation of his magnificent
generosity, but it is not an innova.
tion, for every year witnesses an ex-
cursion of some kind in which en-
ployer and employees meet and have
good time on plane of perfect
equality.

Akron's citizens have had enough
object lessons of late years to teach
them the folly of injecting too much
partisan spirit into the decision of
questions raised in local elections.
The antidote for the overdose of
politics such as that from which the
administration 'of Akron's affairs has
suffered consists of n general resolu-
tion on the part Of citizens to ''be
wise in their wisdom" in future cleo
tions.
