A RIGID inspection of the dairy
farms and of the milk from them sold
in Kenosha, is in order. The chances
are largely in favor of everything
being found in first-c1ass condition,
but an inspection can do no harm and
one would quiet the fears of some of
the nervous people in Kenosha that
milk from diseased COWS is being sold
in the city. The dairy farms of the
county have been inspected time and
again by milk inspectors of Chicago,
and they have always come out of the
ordeal with flying colors and clean
bill of health, and it is probable that a
state inspection would find the cows
supplying milk to Kenosha to be in a
healthy condition, but now that the
matter has come up it had better be
settled at once.

Pioneer Lake Sailor Expired Fri
day at His Home in the
Village Of WiImot.
DEATH DUE TO APoPLExY
Deceased Was Widely Known Among
the Sailors of Lake Michigan, Hav-
ing Sailed the Lake for Years.

Captain Daniel Marsh, one of the
best known residents of the village Of
Wi1mot and man well known on the
great lakes, died at his home in Will
mot early Friday morning. Death
came as a result of a stroke of
apoplexy. Captain Marsh had been
i'll for several weeks but his death was
unexpected.
Daniel Marsh was born in Econo-
my, Nova Scotia, Dec. %, 1926. With
his parents he came to the United
States when he was fourteen years of
ship, Penn, on the farm which was
his home until he came to Wisconsin.
The water had an attraction for him.
He early drifted to the Great Lakes
which for twenty-one years he trav-
ersed, in all the various capacities
from the sailor before the mast to
mate and captain. The period Of his
lake faring experience covered the
transition of the northwest territory
from wilderness TO civilization. He
knew all the big cities on thes lakes
when they were pioneer towns, Civ
ing but faint reflection of their
destinies He drew pension as a
veteran of the civil war.
In 1890 the family homestead in
Erie county, Penn, was sold and
Wilmot was selected as being close
to Chicago and to the lakes. At that
time two of his sons were sailors.
Mr.. Marsh was member of the
Baptist church and was regular at
tendant and main prop of the church
at the time that denomination held
services in Wi1mot.
He was married to Frances Owen
on Oct. II, 1851. They were the par
ents of nine children, six of whom
now live to mourn his loss. They are
Herbert Marsh, Mexican, Penn; Sid
ney Marsh, Richmond, O.; Mrs. Mag
gle Foulston, Moline, Kan; Mrs. Flor
ence Staley, Chicago; Mrs. Edith
Faulkner and Joe Marsh of Wi1not
Mr.. Marsh was great reader. He
always wanted his daily paper prompt
1y and prided himself on the thorough
ness of his knowledge of the worlds
great social and political events. He
was genial and companionab1e and
liked to pass an hour or two in friend
1y chat. He told a good story with
much relish. His early love for the
water chung to him in later days. AS
long as he was able to be out he liked
| nothing better than to exercise his
prowess as mighty fisherman, in his
boat upon the river.

THE national government alone can
deal adequately with these great cor
porations. To try to deal with them
in an Incorporate, destructive or
demagogic spirit would, in all prob
ability, mean that nothing whatever
would be accomplished, and, with alb
so1ute certainty, that if anything
were accomplished it would be of a
harmful nature. Great corporations
are necessary, and only men of great
and singular mental power can man
age such corporations successfully,
and such men must have great re-
wards. But these corporations should
be managed with due gard to the
interest of the public as whole.
Where this can be done under the
present laws it must be done. Where
these laws come short others should
be enacted to supplement them.

HE rs "sHIPWRECKED" ON LAND
Capt. Frietsch, "Lone Mariner in the
Hands of Texas Loan Sharks.

Hands of Texas Loan Sharks.
Capt. Ado1ph Frietsch, formerly of
Kenosha, known as the clone Mari
ner, " after many lonely voyages upon
the ocean, is "shipwre cked" in Hous-
ton, Tex, and willing to make any
sort of a cruise, without company, in
his little schooner, the Anna f., If he
can arrange to effect the release of
the vessel from the clutches of the
money lenders.
Capt. Freitsch still occupies quar-
tiers in his little boat. It is loaded
with shells, which the holder of the
lien against him will not permit him
to sell. He is penni1ess and for1orn,
desperate and almost starving, but
too proud to accept assistance with
out some guarantee of return to his
benefactor.
"I'11 go alone to any place under
the sky that my small boat will take
me- he declares. ''I've crossed the
Atlantic without company and sailed
the Pacific. I've cruised the gulf
alone for many months. / am a sailor
shipwrecked on dry land. am will
ing to risk my life if any one who de-
lights in daring exploits will risk
few dollars to guarantee my return
and take a half interest in my cargo"
The clone Mariner is known all
over the world. In one little boat,
the Nina, he set sail one day from
Kenosha, and ended his lonesome
cruise in GLASGOW, Scotland. At an
other time he departed from San
francisco, and made the port of
Honolulu. Again, in nidwinter, he
carried skiff upon his shoulders
from dime museum in Milwaukee
and crossed ice-bound Lake Michigan
amid storms that made navigation for
the largest ships dangerous.

ADMINISTRATION men declare that
the governor will never permit State
Treasurer Kempf to take office, and
that his bond will be PIT at such a
figure that he can not furnish it. On
the other hand Kempf declares that
he is pepared to furnish any bond
that can legally be required of him,
and there the matter rests at present.
No one will know who is b1uffing until
the time comes for the show down.
Kempf has this in his favor. The
people evidently believed that he was
a prosecuted individual, for they gave
him IS, 200 more votes than they gave
the governor, in spite of the fact that
every effort was made by the admins
tration to down him. The people
seem to be with Kempf, and if the
people are willing to give him another
chance that ought to settle it. And
the people must be perfectly satisfied
with the way Kempf ran things for
they elected him in spite of the ex-
posture Of pecu1iarities Ito put it
mildly in the conduct of his depart
ment that ordinarily would bar man
from public office forever The PEG.
pie having decided in his favor
Kempf's bond should be no larger
than that Of the man appointed by the
governor to succeed him, and the gov
ernor should put no further obstacles
in his way. If the majority rules
Kempf will get his office.

Orange Hawk Weed.

The question of noxious weeds should
absorb the attention of all farmers.
For several years l have not allowed
the orange hawk weed to 60 to seed, and
dug and hoed up the roots, but still it
spreads. 1t appears here and there at
will. Even on two-year-Old straw berry
bed which had been under cultivation
before the plants were set it appears.
As there was no seed in the vicinity TO
fall think that birds must have carried
the seed. If such is the case nothing
|short of wholesale slaughter will stop
its spread.
A pasture which adjoins my land,
until recently owned by nonresident,
thought had exterminated, but this
season there is more than ever. An
other vine bearing a small yellow flower
known as bridal wreath spreads rapidly,
and bars everything. This was intro
duced as garden ornament, and now it
is spreading rapidly. Some measures
will have to be taken ere long to eradi-
cate these pests. Look at the by-ways
and hedges, the docks, the nettles and
all manner of these allowed to seed.-
