Many Industrial Plants Knocking at The
Door of the City and Business
Men Should Organize.
BELL PIANO COMPANY MAY COME
President of Big Kansas Manufacturing
Plant Writes to Mayor Pfennig and
Asks That City Make Proposition.


Mayor Pfennig just at the present
time is being overwhelmed with prop
ositions and it is high time that TIE
people of the city took some move to
make at least an effort to secure the
location of more factories in the city.
During the past four weeks Mayor
Pfennig has received propositions
from four plants which were willing
to locate in Kenosha if,any advantage
Gus offer was made to them. Thus far
with the exception of proposition
from firm of real estate agents no
effort has been made on the part of the
city to secure any of these plants.
This morningI Mayor Fleming re-
ceived business-like letter from the
Bell Piano Company of Lawrence,
Kansas, which is seeking location
near Chicago. The company is now
having instruments manufactured in
Chicago and there is every reason for
the central plant of the company being
located near that city. The company
is not the largest piano factory in the
country, but it is a company that has
been in business for number of years
and is well known to the musical in
strument trade. It's factory would
give employment 70 hundred men,
and the labor employed is of the high
est class. The pay roll of the company
would be material addition to the
source of revenue for the business men
Of the city.
The company is planning to build
its new factory during the coming
summer and if TIE people of Kenosha
desire to secure this plant something
must be done at once.
n writing to the mayor President
Bell has given few questions which
show what is considered by him IN
selecting a location for the factory.
The questions follow:
/. What is the population of your
city?
2. Is it healthy location?
3. Are there plenty of houses OBJ
tainable for workmen, and are rents
reasonable?
4. Are there any factory buildings
with from 10000 to $4,000 feet of floor
space, (mi1l construction, not being
used, that would be desirable for a
piano factory? If so you might have
the owners write us full description,
its shippingssadvantages, also price Of
rent and purchase.
S. Can water power be obtainab1e,
and at what cost?
6. What is the freight rate between
your town and Chicago on pianos,
lumber and coal?
Z. How do your freight rates east
and west compare with Chicago?
s. Do other manufacturers there
have trouble with labor organizations?
9. What other advantages has your
town as manufacturing point?
10. In your opinion, what would
your town be willing..to do to obtain
piano factory that would employ
100 men?

Congressman Cooper may be unable
to secure the establishment Of new
rural free delivery routes in the first
district, as confidently expected, for
right on top of the statement, that
the rural free delivery funds are ex-
hausted, comes the announcement of
deficiency of Sos, 700, caused, it is
claimed, by the fact that several rural
routes have been established in places
where the postal business did not JUS
tify the service.
The people residing south of Keno
sha are picking up large amount of
mail matter belonging to people of
Zion City. This scattering of the
mail is due to the fact that on last
Saturday morning mail sack was
dropped at Zion City and fell under
the wheels. Letters and papers were
strewn along the track all the way to
Kenosha. It is claimed that many of
the letters contained remittances in
the way of checks and money and it is
feared that much of this portion of the
NATL has been lost.
The Wisconsin State Letter Car
rier's association will meet for its

crease in the pay of mail carriers on

cred.

stated that the company is buying TIE

Support the Local Paper.

Speaking Of what a newspaper does
for a community, United States Sem
ator David Davis of Illinois made an
address that remains ever green in the
memories OF newspaper men, says the
Marengo Qa) Democrat. He said:
Every year every local paper gives
from 500 to 5000 free lines for the
benefit Of the community in which it is
located. No other agency can or will
do this. The editor in proportion to his
means does more for his town than any
other man, and in all fairness. man
with man, he ought to be supported
not because you happen to like him or
admire his writing, but because a local
paper is the best investment a commu-
nifty can make. It may not be crowded
with great thought, but financially it is
Of more benefit than both preacher and
teacher. Today editors do more for
less pay than any men on earth. Pat
ronize your home paper, not as a
charity, but as an investment"

NEW SCHOOL FOR RANDALL.
State is Asked to Loan $500 For New
School House in Kenosha County.

State Is Asked to Loan $500 For New
School House in Kenosha County.
The school patrons of the town Of
Randall residing in the first school
district, have decided to erect a new
school in the district which--wi1l be the
most modern in Kenosha county. The
old building will give lplace to new
one which is to cost in the neighbor-
hood of $500. At a recent meeting of
the residents of the district it was vot-
ed to borrow'$15O0 from the state school
fund for the building and a thousand
dollars will be raised by tax on the
district. The new building will be of
brick and as near fire proof as it is
possible to make it. It is the plan to
have it completed and sready for oc-
cupancy by the first of next septem-
Der.
Randall has set a good example and
it is probable that several of the other
districts in the county will follow suit
in the near future. The new school
will be located at the village of Powers
Lake.

Life Savers Forced to Get Along with the
Present Building Make improvements
The United States government will
not build new life saving station in
the Kenosha Harbor during the pres
ent year and the fact that retrench-
ment has been ordered along ali lines
seems to indicate that no station viii
be built until two years hence. This
information has been sent to the men,
bers of the crew and ia order to make
the old station more comfortable some
extensive repairs are being made. The
entire building both inside and outside
is being repainted and when the work
is done the building will:look as bright
as new dollar. It is probable that
the rooms on the second floor of the
building which are occupied as Sleep
ing rooms will be redecorated and
made little more homelike. The
building is comfortable one and it
is probable for this reason that the
work Of building a new station has
been delayed by the government.

me regarding the identifying of a large
lot on which he would soon build a for
ty thousand dollar residence" writes
a landscape engineer in the Kansas
City Star Il studied the plans Of his
house and the ground he was to use.
I advised him not to build there, for
the property adjoining his would be
an eyesore to him. The lawn was 4

The Octopus of sin.


Oh, the destroying power of sin,
Some years ago a diver was sent down
to explore the bottom of the sea-
While there he thrust his hand into
hole which seemed to be the retreat of
some kind Of a living creature. In
stantly his arm was seized as by a
wise. The long tentacles of an octopus
wound themselves about his arm. He
dared not give the signal for the
friends overhead to pull him up, be-
cause he knew that his arm would be
pulled off, but he had presence of mind
enough to take sharp steel knife
which he had strapped to his side, and
with it he cut off the arms Of that
octopus, and when the diver was pull
ed up attached to his body were the
arms of that octopus, still clinging. one
of the tentacles over eight feet long.
The octopus of secret sin has many a
man and woman in a fatal clucch.-

lies not in the possession Of many

fealty Of his conscience to the good.
This is greatness, according to the
of the cross of Christ. 1t is
the greatness of magnanimity, Of hu-
mility, of purity of spirit, of gentle

and Of amenity, always and in ey
