The News fails to read beyond nara

The News fails to read beyond nara
row boundaries. 1t condemns this
paper because it applauds the election
of George b. Mcclellan as mayor of
greater New York. Mcclellan was
10 choice of democracy and had the
endorsement of Tammany. This lat
t word is like red flag to the News.
1t cannot see corruption in any other
places than in New York. through
Tammany intervention. 1t will not
read history to find New York was
more corrupt under a reform admins
tration than under democratic rule in
t he past dozen years. 1t will not see
the horrible corruption of tn, repab-
llcan ring in the city of Philadelphia
the most corrupt city, in it' official
relations in America. 1t cannot see
the perfidy OF Mayor Ashbridge. or
the corrupt republican administration
in city of St Louis and it has always
closed its eyes to the corrupt practices
of the most despicable ring of rotten
politicians that has ever existe l. that
has ruled and attempted to ruin the
Keystone state for a quarter OF cen
tury. But then it is the News. The
Sentinel has sufficient backbone to
call thing corrupt. if it is found in
the democratic party. 1t knows that
corruption exists in both parties. hut
the News cannot see, it is blinded by
its party fealty. When. however, it
attempts to besmirch young George
Mcclellan. simply because he is a
democrat and his election aided by
Tammanv, he is barking up the
wrong tree. as New York generally.

Chief Barr an expert as fire fighter
and his hold on the men of the Depart

In recommending the e-election of
the chief for another year the mem
bers of the Fire Department will send
resolution to the council asking that
the salary of the chief be increased
from $500 to 5000 year. This is in
deed small salary for the chief of the
department to receive in city the size
of Kenoshs. The report shows that
the chief was forced to answer nearly

kenosha Fire Department Members
Held Annual Meeting at the City
Hall Monday Evening.
BARR RECOMMENDED FOR CHIEF
Firemen Also Send Resolution to the
Council Asking That the Salary of
the Chief Be Increased.

The members of the Kenosha Vol
unteer Fire Department held their an
nual meeting Monday night at the
Council chamber in the City Hall and
nearly every member of the volunteer
department was in attendance. So
general was the attendance that the
old plan of fning the absent members
was not brought up and the few who
remained at home by the Preside es-
capped with reprimand by the mem
bers who braved the cold weather to
attend the meeting.
The annual reports of the different
| officers, as presented to the members,
showed that the year just past had
been good one for the Fire Depart
ment and it is in an exceedingly
healthy condition.
By a unanimous vote it was decided
to recommend to the Council the re-
election of James S. Barr as Chief of
the Department. In making this rec.
ommendation the members of the De-
partment are high in their praise of
the splendid service rendered to the
city by the Fire Chief. For more than
decade Chief Barr has stood at the
head of the Kenosha Fire Department
and he has remarkable record as a
fire fighter. Scarcely a single FIRE has
occurred in this long time that has not
been fought under the personal super
vision of the Chief of the Department.

TO DEVELOP THE CHEST.
Easy Way by (which to Increase Bust
Measurement Two Inches
i'm Three Months.

The neck and chest can be developed
finely in three months by the following
rules:
As you walk about raise the shoulders
quickly and then throw them back and
then down. Count quickly as you do it
1-2-3-raising them to 1 and so on.
After going through this three times or
more, you are ready to walk properly.
Keep the chest out and be careful each
time not to let the shoulders come for
ward at the last counts. They must
go down and back, if anything.
AS you walk. continually keep the
chest pushed out and the abdomen and
stomach forcibly drawn in. See how
long you can hold your breath, and, as
you hold it, raise the chest higher and
higher. This is what singers do when
they wish to sustain long passages In
one breath.
When you find you must exhaust your
breath, do not let the chest fall, and take
the breath instantly and quietly through
the nose only and by pushing out the
sides. Then instantly begin slowly draw
ing in the sides and abdomen and raise
the chest higher and higher. ,
Any one who will try this will increase
in measure from shoulder to shoulder
and around bust two inches in three
months.-Chicago Inter Ocean.
