Passing Of Richard Kennedy.

Mr.. Richard Kennedy, of High
land, and one of the staunchest citi-
zens Of southwestern Wisconsin,
died in ST. Mary's hospital at Racine
early Monday morning, after an OPP
GRAFTON, performed some two weeks
ago, for an abscess, and which the
doctors pronounced tuberculosis of
the muscles.
Mr.. Kennedy was born on Jan. B,
1912, at Minersville, Schuylkill coun-
ty, Pa. He moved with his parents
in infancy to Wisconsin, and since
had been resident of this state. In
August, 1862, he enlisted in the
Twenty seventh Wisconsin infantry,
was first sergeant and participated
in all the battles in which it was en-
gagged up to Nov. 2, 1864, when he
was wounded while guarding a
bridge on the Little Rock and Mem
phis railroad, and was sent home
discharged for disability. In 1850
and 1883 he represented Iowa county
faithfully and efficiently in the state
Legislature as assemblyman, and had
held various local Offices of trust.
For many years Mr.. Kennedy has
been engaged extensively, and prob
ably more so than any other one
man in this section, in the develop
ment of zinc ore mines, and at the
time of his death was interested in
several valuable mines in Iowa,
Grant and Lafayette counties. He
was an authority on zinc ores
throughout this entire mining re-
gion, and the recent revival in the
zinc industry in southwest Wis
consin is directly attributed to his
personal efforts and enterprise. He
assisted in the construction OF
the first concentrating mill intro
duced into this section, which was
four years ago, since when he has
been instrumental in the putting in
OF six other Such mills.
The benefits Of this mans enter.
prise and knowledge to the laborine
class throughout this section cannot
well be measured by casual observa
ton. They were many and far reach
ing, and his death will cause til,
hearts OF hundreds OF miners and &C
quaintances in general to throb will
sorrow. He was man among men.
. His funeral took place from ST
, Philips church, Highland, yesterda,
i morning, Several from Minera
) Point, including Grand Army com
f.. rades, attended.

Thanksgiving Outing.

Thanksgivi day was enjoyed by
many residents of Mineral Point, but
it can safely be stated, that few had
more pleasure. mirth or varied
amusement, than a party Of young
folks, who hied themselves across
the prairie and woodland to Blanch-
ardville. About 10 a. m. the carry
all was filed, and with the noted
whip, Mr.. Samuel Hamlyn, holding
the ribbons off they started for fun
and frolic. The first stop was made
at the home of Mr.. Michael Brew,
where they were most warmly well
coined, and whore a most generous
dinner had been prepared. Turkey
and cranberry sauce, chicken and
roasts, with pumpkin pie and other
delicacies appropriate to the day.
formed an inviting feast. Although
the dinner was passed with talking,
chatting and laughing, the sad havoc
and ruin remaining showed the main
object mad not been overlooked. II

Antitrust IenisIation.

Washington, Jan. 9.-Quick action
so far as the house is concerned is
already assured as result of the
presidents renewed efforts in behalf
of antitrust legislation. The leaders
of the lower branch have determined
to put through bill carrying the ad.
ministration's recommendations al
most as soon as it comes from the
committee. This bill has already been
drawn.
If the senate shows no sign of earn
est effort to pass an antitrust bill,
special message will go to that body
from the president. If the special
message does not have the desired eff
feet, and if the question is allowed to
drag along like the Cuban reciprocity
bill without coming to vote, the
president is at present inclined to call
an extra session, so important does he
consider the question and so neces-
sary does he think legislation. Again,
should there be any bubble over the
wording of the bill, the administra-
ton is in position to render first
and quick aid to the hesitating, for
Attorney General Knox has a bill
drawn UP, section by section covering
all the points of the administrations
suggestions.

STEADY INCREASE.
Railroad Building is Going Mer-
s rily on. =

About Six Thousand Niles We're Built
During Year Of 1909 United States
Leads All.
According to the Railroad GA
zette's estimate the year 1902 wit
tossed the addition OF 9,026 miles to-
the railway mileage Of the country.
exclusive of second track, siding
and all electric lines. Last years
addition were 5,368 miles that of
1900 was 1894. The increase since
1895 has been steady. The TO al
mileage for the nation is now within
few hundred of the 100000 mark.
1t is fact OF interest that Okla
Loma leads the list of states and
territories in railroad building for
the year with $40 miles, while In
dian territory is foul til with 1863
miles This is substantial show
ing for progress. Texas has built
496 miles of railway in the year, Ar
kansas 81, Illinois, Iowa Missouri
and New Mexico more than 200
each. No new stream mileage is re-
ported from Alaska, Delaware,
Idaho, Maryland, New jersey, New
Hampshire, Rhode Island and
Wyoming. In New York eight com
panies were concerned in building
63. Is miles.
Ia the thirty six years since the
close of the civil war the railway
mileage of the United States has
been almost multiplied by six. -Four
States of today-Illinois, Pennsyl-
vania, Texas and Ohio-have larg,
err aggregate mileage than the conn
try's total of $4,000 in 1866 Fresh
charters and contracts reported in
dictate that the expansion of the
steel highway system is to continue
unchecked in the coming year. 1t
seems unavoidable, however, that
the great development of the trolley
systems must soon have an appre-
ciahle effect on the steam mileage
increase. The great West and the
South furnish the chief fields for
new railway explorations, and al
ready there is the report of a trolley
syndicate proposing to grldiron Ne
braska and Iowa.
