Unknown Man Falls From a Slide at
Powers Lake and Dies From the
Effects of the Accident.
THE NEW CORONER'S FIRST CASE
Man Supposed to be Named Hall Falls
From an Ice Slide at Jefferson Ice
House on Powers Lake.

Coroner T. B. Lansdowne was called
to Genoa Junction this morning to in
vestigate the death of an unknown
man, supposed to have been named
Hall, who died last evening ASA result
of in juries received several days ago.
The man had been in the employ of
the Jefferson Ice company at Powers
Lake and had been assisting in har-
vesting the ice. Early Monday morn
ing he was at work near one of the ice
houses, when he was asked to assist in
hauling up some ice. He stepped to
the edge of the slide and seemed to
faint. He lost his balance sand fell to
the ground below, striking on his
head. He was picked up in an uncon-
scious condition and taken into the
ice house. 1t was thought that he had
met instant death, but he became par
tally conscious later and suffered in
tense1y. After he had been removed
to his home near the ice, house he be-
came unconscious and never regained
his senses. He died late last night.
The deceased was known to only a
few people in the neighborhood, as he
had only recently come to Powers Lake.
He was about 48 years of age and
leaves a wife and several children.
The jury summoned by Coroner
Lansdowne are investigating the case
this afternoon and will probably place
the blame for the death of the man.

Gov. La Follette's Inaugural.

In the inaugural message which
Gov. La Toilette of Wisconsin read be-
fore the state Legislature last Thurs
day, the people of that state will find
encouraging evidence that the new
Governor is not lacking either in COM
prehension of local problems or in the
force and vigor necessary to deal with
them. He outlined several changes
looking to fundamental reforms in the
states governing system, and in deal
ing with the older problems of state
administration he manifested the ju-
dicia1 rather than the partisan spirit.
The energy with which he addresses
himself to these subjects, as we'll as
the intelligence of his discussion of
them, promises well for his administra-
ton.
Gov. La Fo11ette's position as to
the present taxation laws, subject of
urgent importance in other states as
we'll as in Wisconsin, is at bottom that
of every impartial observer who has
seen the inequitab1e character of the
legislation by which the taxing bur-
den is distributed. He advises meas
ures to correct these abuses, and the
vigor which he shows on this issue is
equally apparent even in'his advocacy
of measures where partisan interests
may be at stake. He would abolish
the present primary system, charging
the powers of the voter at primaries to
dictate in the selection of candidates.
His argument for the abolition of the
practice. of lobbying, as a menace to
the state, was another plea in behalf
Of honestly representative govern
ment, while his remarks upon the
trusts, if not start1ingly original, show
an intelligent purpose to curb those
monopo1ies wherever they are found to
be unjustifiab BILE and oppressive.
In short, judging from this message
alone, Wisconsin has Governor who
means to look out more for the inter
ests of the state than for those of his
| party. If he stands fast by the gener-
al principles he has supported in this
message his term of Office will not be
without exemplary influence in other
states, to say nothing of the benefits
which Wisconsin must experience from
an energetic and independent admins
tration of it's affairs.-Chicago Record

Ex-Sheriff Timme Gives a Feast in
Honor of His Deputies and Friends
On Thursday Evening.
WAS A VERY ENJOYABLE AFFAIR.
Retiring Sheriff Entertains His Deputies
and Police Officers at Banquet
at the Hartman Restaurant.

Henry Timme started a new custom
in Kenosha last night when, as ex-
sheriff of the county, he gave ban
quet at the Chairman restaurant in
honor of the men who had assisted him
as deputies during his term of Office.
The banquet was very pleasant So
cia1 event and the thirty friends of ex-
Sheriff Timme who were permitted to
be present all state that it was quite
the event of the season.
The ex-sheriH took full charge of the
restaurant after 10 o'clock and the
large dining room was arrayed-iE gala
attire for the entertainment of his
guests. About the long table with the
ex-sherif Sat the head were seated the
former deputy sheriffs, the members of
the police force, members of the county
board and a few of the friends of the
retiring sheriff. The evening was a
merry one.iiThe banquet served was
fit to tickle the palate of king. AT
ter the feast had been served there was
a flow of toratory. Every man about
the tab1eswas called upon to say some
thing and the various officers toasted
the ex-sheriff and the pleasant asso-
citation with him during the past year.
Never did a sheriff. swork in greater
harmony with the police and deputies
than did Sheriff Timme and the ban
quet last night was fitting close of
year of such harmonious work.
The guestsIremained about the table
until late in the evening and after
cigars had been lighted there were
stories went the round that caused
smile after smile to creep over the
faces of the auditors.
The custom inaugurated by the re-
firing sheriff is a splendid one and he
has set an example which may we'll be
followed by his successors in office.
Sheriff Timme.wil1 resume his duties
at the blacksmith shop Monday.

BOHMRICH FOR JUDGE.
Racine Democrats Believe That Judge
Fish's Shoes Would Fit Louie.

The Democrats of Racine have
started a boom for L. G. Bohmrich of
this city as a candidate for the posi-
ton of Circuit Judge to succeed the
Hon. Frank N. Fish. It is stated that
Mr.. Bohmrich has expressed his will
'ingness to make the run for the office
if he is acceptable to the members of
his party. So far as has been learned
Mr.. Bohmrich is the only Democrat
that has as yet been mentioned for the
office and he would certainly make as
strong a run as any Democrat that
could be placed on the ticket. There
would be some question as to the resi-
dence of Mr.. Bohmrich, as recently he
removed to Milwaukee from this city,
but as his family still resides in Keno
sha it is possible that he could still
claim this city as his home.
Mr.. Bohmrich would have good sup
port in this county if he was nomina-
ted for the Office, but he could hardly
be expected to win out in the circuit,
which is largely Republican. From all
indications it seems that Judge Fish
will be elected to his Office again with
a large majority.

Gov. La Fo11otte's message to the
Legislature is nothing if not long.
The questions before the administers
ton are obviously of the most unusual
significance and Importance and the
new Governor apparently feels the
sense of personal responsibility as
natural result of his personal influence
in making the issues. On the whole
the message is what the people looked
for from Gov. La Toilette. It covers
the main questions that have figured
in his election quite completely. AS to
tax reform and the primary election
law, the message of the new Governor
is comprehensive. The plea for nom
ination by the vote of the people is re-
newed. Evidently the Governor takes
it for granted that it was the primary
election law more than any other con-
sideration that elected him. There
fore, he urges it upon the Legislature
as their greatest obligation.
Whether the average voter in the
last election took much thought of the
primary election law might be ques-
ton. But there are generally &C
knowledged weaknesses in our caucus
and convention system, and the ad-
ministration is one devoted, If not
pledged, to reform along this line, so
the people are alert for the proceedings
of the Legislature on this mooted
question. There is plenty of oppor-
tunity for the machine and boss poll
tician in every sphere of Our election
system. If it is made plain in the
course of the discussion in the Legisla-
ture, that his claws can be clipped by a
primary election law, there is not like
ly to be much opposition from the vo-
ter. But unless the deliberations of
our Senators and Assemb1ymen bring
out more effective answer to the OBJ
iections already made to the primary
election law than Gov. La Toilette in
his message, it would not be surprising
if the people f1oundered little on the
subject. The Governors message
leaves no doubt whatever of his thor
ough confidence in his measure to eff
feet cure, or at last relief from the
evils of the present system. There are
those who do not share the Governors
faith, who, though IN perfect accord
with the purpose of the measure, are
visited with fears lest it promote con-
fusion and complication without eff
fecting the good results expected by
it's friends. The law has both friends
and enemies in the Legislature. It
will be- analysed, as it should be, and
if, in the mind of the State Legislature,
after most careful and fair de1ibera-
ton, it is thought best to make the
trial, the people will welcome the ex-
pertinent.

CITY Council Considers Railway Plans
For The Bridge, But Takes
no Action at Meeting.
GAS COMPANY MAKES CHANGES.
Committee on Gas and Light Report That
The Company is willing tddove the
Light If Demands are Reasonable

The Common Council met in ad-
journed SESSION at the city hall Friday
evening for the opurposes of taking
some action in regard to the plans for
the bridge to be built blythe Kenosha
Street Railway company, but as a re-
suit of the meeting the plans for the
bridge are still unaccepteds and st will
proba bly, be at least two weeks"before
the Council takes any action on the
matter. At the meeting the committee
on streets, alleys and bridges to whom
the plans had been referred stated that
they had no further report to smake on
the subject and it was decided to refer
the whole matter to the committee on
streets, alleys and bridges with the
engineer Of the company, the city
engineer and the mayor added. This
committee will report in about two
weeks. In connection with the bridge
plans the city engineer presented re-
port to the Council, urging that
some changes be made in the plans.
The bridge, built according to the
plans, would be rather unsight1y and
on this account the engineer suggests
that the bridge be made higher and
that the length be increased SO as to
make the structure extend..to the North
harbor line. The engineer further re-
ported that he thought the city would
be able to have the old bridge removed
and stored for 5000.
The matter of removing the old
bridge was referred to committee
consisting of the Mayor, the engineer
and the street and alley committee.
This committee will report at special
meeting to be called by the Mayor.
The arrangements as made by the
Council were entirely satisfactory to
Mr.. Arnold and the officials of the
Street Railway company.
After the bridge matter had been
settled the committee on gas and light
reported that the contract with the
Kenosha Gas and Electric company
had been examined and the city had
no right to demand the moving Of
| lights. The committee reported that
the manager of the company, F. w.
Bowen, had agreed that the company
would move any lights desired, provid-
ing that the move could be made with
cut any great expense to the company.
This proposition will probably be
accepted and several lights will be
moved in order to have them placed in
the center of the streets lighted.

CASE WAS DISMISSED.

Charles Lindquist, Charged With Attempt
to Make Criminal Assault. Discharged.
Charles Lindquist, who was arrested
a few days ago on a charge of attempt
ing a criminal assault on Mrs. Katie
Macheski, had preliminary hearing
in Justice Slater's court this morning.
The evidence against the man showed
that he had been guilty of only little
indiscretion and the charge against
him was dismissed at the request of the
District Attorney. Later Lindquist
was arrested on charge of assault
and the case against him will be heard
later. It seems that the prosecution of
Lindquist is largely the result of a
family row and the case will probably
result in the man being fined small
amount.
The hearing of the case this morn
ing drew half the Polish population of
the city to the Court room.

Judge Fish Filed His Decision in the
Street Railway Case With the
Clerk of the Court.
IS A PERPETUAL INJUNCTION.
Judge Fish Declared That Portion of the
Ordinance Granting Selection of Route
is Void.

Judge Fisk today filed with the clerk
of the circuit court his decision in the
recent suit of Mary Hale Allen VS..
Gustav L. C1ausen, implicated with
Patrick L. Haynes and Bion ]. Arnold.
The decision of the Judge covers the
whole case and the important passages
of it are reproduced as follows:
"Now therefore, on motion of John
c. Slater, Esq, said plaintiffs attor-
ney, it is ordered, decreed and adjudged
by the court, now here, that so much
of the ordinance described in the COM
plant herein and in the said findings
as purports to give the defendants,
Haynes and Clausen, the right to con-
struct an electric railway upon any
streets in Kenosha, except those
specifically designated in said ordin-
ance, as void.
Said ordinance was passed by the
Common Council of the city of Keno
sha on the I'd day of July, A. d. 1900,
over the veto of the Mayor of said city.
1t is further ordered, adjudged and
decreed that the defendant, Gustav
L. C1ausen, who is the only defendant
served in this action, and his agents,
attorneys, servants, employees, and any
and every person claiming under or
through him, be and he and they are
hereby perpetual1y enjoined and re-
strained from entering upon South
street in the city of Kenosha, where
the same abuts upon the premies de-
scribed in the complaint and herein
after described, and from laying any
rails thereon or constructing or operat-
ing any railway thereon, or erecting or
maintaining any trolley poles or trolley
wires thereon"
Following the judgment appears
description of the property in question.
The decision of the court will set aside
the claims of the rival attorneys in re-
gard to the scope of the decision of the
court and will open the way for the
appeal of the case to the supreme court.
It is expected that the case will be ap-
pea1ed at once, as both parties are
anxious to have some decision in the
matter.
Considering the recent decision of
the supreme court in the Linden Land
company case it would appear that the
company would have an easy victory
in the higher court.
