MiId-Mannered Deacons Come to Ke-
nosha to Seek Converts For Ancient
Faith Among the Farmers.
AVOID THE HOMES IN THE CITY.
Prosecutors Seek Members to Join the Nor
mon Church and Farmers are Asked to
Give Up Their Farms and go West.

The mild-mannered deacons of the
church Of the Mormons have come to
kenosha county and two of them are
working among the farmers of the
county seeking to secure converts to
the ancient faith. Their work is being
done without ostentation and not with
standing the extreme cold weather,
their mission work is being carried for
ward without interruption. The Nor.
mon elders zeal is never dampened by
heat or cold, and Notwithstanding the
cold way in which their teachings are
being received they have refused to
give up and are spreading the teach
ings of Joseph Smith with as much
zeal as Salvation army lassie. The
elders are not too well supplied with
money and on this account they have
been forced to make their trips in the
country from one house to another on
foot. For four days the men have
been working in the town of Paris aud
they claim that their teachings have
resulted in several of the families in
that section adopting the tenets of
Mormonism. Thus far the elders have
fought shy of Kenosha and they have
only come to the city to secure the lit
tie remittances from Salt Lake and Sc
cure the cashing of checks sent to
them to pay their living expenses.
They have esta blished themselves at
one Of the little humble homes on
farm in Paris and declare that they in
tend to spend the entire winter work
ing IN Racine and Kenosha counties.
They seek not only converts to their
faith but they ask those accepting the
faith to give up their homes here and
go to the far West where Mormonism
is recognized as a power. The elders
admit that it is hardly possible to estab-
fish church of the faith in this
county.
This is the first visit that the Nor
mon Elders have made to this county
in half decade. At the time of their
last visit here it is claimed that they
secured six families as converts to
their religion, and all of them have
since removed to Utah and are now
nigh in church circles there.
Mormonism is historic in Kenosha
county, and the county is regarded as
something of a stronghold for the
work Of the Elders. Way back in the
early forties the church had small
colony of members in Kenosha, and
from this the influence of mormonism
is still being spread. The Elders hope
at some time in the dim future to re-
vive the little society.
The Elders are being received with
every courtesy, and their tracts and
pamphlets blazing the beauties Of the
Mormon faith are found in many
homes in the county.

forced amount to nothing.
He is right.
Let it be assumed that the gentlemen
who have brisrltS ION the brain" sue
coed iii repeating the hog-pcn ordinance
this spring-the JOURNAL wants to
know what they will thea do with Sec
ton of Chapter ,?
This Section prohibits
throwing water, Stop, offal or any filthy
or other liquid or substance, or suffering
the same to be thrown from his, her or
their house, kitchen, ~ premises, or per-
hitting the same to be east or to flow into or
upon any street, alley or public square, etc.
If this Section were literally enforced,
who could or would keep hog pen:
So, gentlemen, when you repeal tie
hog pen ordinance you will throw the
door open to repeating Section of Chap
ter 3, for hog-pen and sanitary cleanli-
ness cannot live i'll the same town,
certainly not on the same street,
assuredly not on the same alley.
And when you have repealed Section
of Chapter 3

The plans for fencing in the new park

The bltachers extending along the first

am neither for nor against the pro-
posed curfew regulation, but | do think
if Council would have the ordinances
now in the book cntorccd, there would
be no need of curfew law. Take, for
instance, Section of Chapter 3-if all
the evils therein mentioned as violations
of law were recognized and treated by
enforcement Of the law our children
would be as safe from contamination on
the streets as at home. And this leads
me to ask the people-what, at last
will your curfew law amount to If your
Council and officers do not enforce it
any more vigorously than they do Sec

Prohibit the Flies

Make the people keep their hog pens
clean -
How:
Whoever saw il clean hug-pcn:
And after cleaning" where is the
uncleanness deposited:
And now much cleaner is the fly that
comes from ii feast in the so-called clean
hog pen through your door or window
and lights next on the morsel of food
you are about to chew and swallow:
And how much cleaner are Il hun
bred such flies from all sorts of clean
hog pens than one:
This is mentioned in this nauseating
way because in exchange for the re-
pealcd hog pen ordinance the JOURNAL
wants an ordinance abolishing flies in
this town, and wants it enforced.
Without flies, the hog-pcn peril is re-
duced at least 30 j,,', rent.
And Just here the JOURNAL believes it
should asks the republican party of
Frostburg going to permit the repeal of
the hog pen ordinance to become IL re-

Cough Remedy Pneumonia always results
from IA cold or from an attack of influenza
(grp,) and it has been observed that this
remedy counteracts any tendency To these
diseases toward pneumonia. This has been
fully proven in many thousands of cases in
which this remedy has been used during the
great prevalence of colds and grip in recent
years and can be relied upon with implicit
confidence. Pneumonia often results from
Il slight cold when no danger is apprehended
until it is suddenly discovered that there is
fever and difficulty in breathing and pains
in the chest then it is announced that the
patient has pneumonia. BE on the safe side

All constables whose terms of office
will expire next January, 1904. must

what Attorney General Miller holds
in an opinion rendered this morning.
The attorney general holds that the
coming election is general one. In
1902 the legislature passed an amend
ment to the constitution providing
that the justices of the peace and con-
stables should be elected only at the
election held for deciding upon repre-
sentatives to the general assembly.
To make right start all the justices
and constables holding Office whose
terms expire next January, We're to
hold on until Jan. 1905. BY an over
sight the legislature did not mention
the constables in the clause providing
for the holding over. The matter was
unnoticed until today when an opin-
ion on the amendment was requested
from Attorney General Miller by
County CLERK Frank Lomei ster, of
Leadville.
