TO PROTECT
LAKE SHORE
Land Owners Decide to Change
Plans as Found Necessary
To Meet Conditions
PILES TO BE PLACED WITHOUT SHEETING
Work is to be RuShed-TO Be Finished
Before Winter-TraCk of st. R. r.
Has Been Shifted

At a meeting between contractors
Pellet and Kieth and the land owners
interested in the lake shore protection
it was decided to have the double
row of pilings complete, but not sheet
them up. This way the piles break the
force of waves but do not offer sufficient
resistance to be torn out. Later on the
intention is to set another row of piling
nearer to shore and have that sheeted
mp and the place between itand the shore
will then be filled in. This later
method has been followed by Chicago
in protecting its shore but as can readi-
ly be seen is very expensive and for
that reason our local parties are holding
back fearing that the improvement will
cost more than the whole land is worth.
Mr.. Higgins was compelled to move
his tracks further westward on one place
but feet intervened between the
tracks and the deep, but as now placed
Mr.. Higgins expects them to be safe at
least until spring even if no further i'm
provements are made.
At the council meeting the city did
not decide what it would do in regard
to the protection but after some wrang
ling the system followed by the proper
ty owners will beyond doubt be adop
ted by the city also.

LECTURES ON WISCONS!N'S SOIL
No Coal or Oil in the State Says Prof.
johnson.

Sunday evening Prof. johnson lee
tured before the Milwaukee literary
Club on How Wisconsin came to be"
He showed that Wisconsin was once
upon time a mountain of granite
which by the processes of time has been
gradually worn down to level plain.
But being granite foundation there
is no use Of boring for oil or looking for
coal in the state this being impossible
to exist in the state.

CATION"
The negroes of the District of Colum-
bia continue to criticise the republican
party. At a recent meeting at which
many members of the Suffrage League
were present, the president of the league
Declared that the colored people were
going to create stir if their liberties
were taken away from them. Another
speaker added, Let us not be led astray
by talk of industrial education and
holding of property. If they can steal
the ballot they can steal our property" 3"
William Calvin Chase said, IF the
republican party cannot prevent the re-
peal of the fifteenth amendment when
it is in power, let us no longer support
the party as we have done in the past.
They tell us we owe the republican par
ty a debt of gratitude. In the name Of
all the gods haven't we already paid
that debt? If Roosevelt and his party
cannot come to our rescue | think that
we should withdraw our support from
them" This and other indications show
that the republican party cannot retain
the negro vote from mere gratitude for
the past favors.
While the republicans fail to come to
an agreement on financial legislation
Secretary Shaw continues 20 relieve an

now announced that the republicans
will appoint joint committee to exam
Inc into the needs for currency legisla-
ton.
