Dumping PIaee-NotIee by the ealIIns.

The bailiffs have made arrangements
with ii. r. Lawrence for dumping refuse
from his land back of Barrowss coal shed

Local Extension OF Street Railway Must
Depend on Route Selected for a
Through Line.
COMPANIES GETTING TOGETHER
No Longer Amy Doubt but That the Line
From the South VIII Have Use of Keno
sha Electric Railway Co.'s Tracks

Local street railway extension will
depend on the building of the line
from Waukegan to Kenosha.
This has been announced by pron1i-
nent officials Of the Kenosha company
and there is no doubt but that the
matter of extending the Kenosha line
on the South, will be left open until
gan to Kenosha is completed.
The south branch of the local line,
which has been planned to run along
South Main and Exchange streets
would be built at once, were it not for
the fact that the company building
from the south has not as yet arranged
their route. The route through the
Country Club grounds is the one
which has been exploited, but the
hesitancy of the local company to
build, seems to indicate that the COM
pany is considering some other route
for the line.
The line will run through the west
side of Zion City, and if the line is to
be straight one to Kenosha, it will
be necessary for it to make crossing
of the North Western if it runs to the
east Of that road. For that reason it
is thought possible that the plans Of
the company are being changed so
that the line will enter Kenosha on
the west, rather than on the east, of
the railway tracks.
There is no longer any doubt of the
connection between the Kenosha
company and the Chicago, Kenosha
and Milwaukee company, and as soon
as the through line is built, the cars
of the latter company will be running
over the tracks of the Kenosha local
company.
At the time of the passing of the
franchise ordinance, the company
announced that a traffic agreement
had been made with the line to the
south, and the franchise gives the
company the right to allow the cars
of the Chicago, Kenosha and Mi1wau-
kee Company to run on the lines in
Kenosha. In order to make the best
possible speed it will be necessary to
have the line a straight one, and it is
probable that the east line will be
selected. Mr.. Arnold will remain in
New York for several weeks and on
his return it is probable that the Off
Gals of the two companies will get
together and make some arrange
ment for the building of the two lines.

England and Our Civil War.

Writing from Toronto to the Spring
field Republican, Professor Goodwin
Smith contributes some apparently new
material to the ancient controversy
over the attitude of William E. Glad
stone and other eminent Englishmen
toward the north and south during the
civil war. Gladstones idea, according
to Professor Smith, was to mediate, not
to intervene, and when the emperor of
the French suggested the latter the
British government unanimously and
without hesitation refused to entertain
it. The professor says:
Gladstone no doubt would have had the
north let the south go, but he was never
otherwise than friendly to the north. He
wrote letter to a friend suggesting that
if the north would let the south go Can
ada might in time join the north. The let
ter would have done no good at the time
and might have done much harm after
ward. The friend to whom it was writ
ten therefore, kept it to himself Seeing
what has gone on since and what is now
going on I have more than once been
half inclined to doubt whether Glad
stones policy may not, after all. have
been the best.
It is not altogether improbable that
the friend to whom allusion is here
made was no other than Professor
Goodwin Smith himself, and now that
he has told this much he might as well
give the public the whole letter. 1t
would be Of great interest to the Cana
dams as well as to the people of the
United States.

THE records and maps of the city
are too valuable to be left constantly
exposed to fire as they are now.
Under present conditions compara-
lively insignificant blaze would do an
immense amount of damage. Some
of the records could never be replaced
if they were accidentally destroyed and
it would cost the city great deal of
money to restore the others. The
Council has plan to move the city
clerks office to the old county build
ing where there is a good vault to
store the records but if this plan falls
through vault room should be rented
somewhere else until the city can
provide suitable place of its own.

THERE have been number of rum
Always lately some Of them caused by
horses being frightened by automo-
bi1es and it may not be out of place to
remind the driving public that the
offer made by the Jeffrey company
last year still holds good. A year ago
the automobile company offered to
help the owners of nervous animals
break them to automobiles if they
would bring their horses to the fac
tory and the same plan to help the
horsemen will be followed this season
Last year large number of horse
owners took advantage of the offer of
the Jefery company and with the as
sistance of the employees of the COM
pany their horses were thoroughly
broken to autos. The big automobile
company stands ready to do it's full
share in breaking the horses to it's
machines and if the drivers fail to do
their part they alone are to blame for
accidents.

FLOODS MAKE HAVOC
Fox and O'PIane Rivers Out Of Their
Banks and Homes of Farmers
are Threatened.
WILMOT BRIDGE is CARRIED AWAY.

Farmers in all parts Of the country
have been placed in danger of heavy
loss by the sudden rising of the Fox
and O'P1ane rivers, and if the warm
weather continues for another daY it
is feared that great damage will be
done. The Fox river is now out of it's
banks and the rising waters are i1eav-
ing track of ruin. The big bridge
in the village of Wi1mot has been car
ried away and the water . is now
threatening the homes of the people
IN the village. At Bur1ington'''th
Wisconsin Central Railway bridge
has been washed away and the water
is now up to the bridge recently built
by Racine and Kenosha Counties on
the line dividing the two Counties.
It is feared that this bridge will not
withstand the water for another day.
All along the line of the Fox river
heavy losses are being reported by
the farmers. The water is within a
few inches of the big barns of Henry
Runke1 in the town Of Wheat1and and
it is feared that these barns will be
badly damaged.
The O'P1ane river is almost as bad
and the fiat portions of the County are
covered with the overflow from the
stream. The bridge on the Geneva
road was in great danger of being
washed away last night but this morn
ing it is reported that the bridge is
out of danger and the waters are re-
ceding.
The damage done along the Fox
river has been estimated at thousands
of dollars and it is feared that even
greater floods will follow. The farm
ers have absolutely no way of pro-
tecting their lands against the rising
waters.

The office of city clerk in city the
size of Kenosha is no sinecure. 1t is
not quite 50 easy as it looks to per-
form the duties Of the office in sat
isfactory manner and safeguard the
interests of the city. Gus Jacob has
made a good clerk. Even his enemies
and he has enemies as every man in
a public office must have if he does
his duty admit that. No business
concern would lose the services of a
competent employee if it could help
it and the voters Of the city are not
likely to be any less careful in look
ing after their own interest. Jacobs
entitled to a reelection on his record
no matter which ticket he happens to
be on and unless the voters of the city
let blind partisanship bias their judg-
ment he is going to serve the city for
another two years at least as city
clerk.

fish without the state is valid; and
that the defendants objection to the
reception of any testimony under the
complaint must be overru1ed.
| have examined all the cases
cited to me on the argument, and
others. My conclusions are these:
That the correct rule is that the
ownership of animals and fish, free
by nature, so far as they are capable
OF ownership, is in the state as the
representative and for the benefit of
the people.
That the state may regulate the
taking, killing, and transportation of
game and fish.
That the property of the individual
IN game and fish, after reduced TO
possession, is qualified and subject to
legislative regulation.
The game and fish, when reduced to
individual possession, do not be-
come articles of commerce and trade
within the meaning of the interstate
commerce acts.
1he statutes prohibiting or regu-
lating the transportation of game and
fish beyond the limits of the state in
which it is taken or killed, are within
the constitutional power of the 1egis-
lature to enact, and do not conflict
with the constitution or interstate
commerce acts of the United States.
That the law in question is valid.

By. one of the shrewdest of political
moves, the Democrats have arranged
to have Mr.. barrow here at time
when interest in the city election is
beginning to assume fever heat.
Mr.. Darrow has many friends among
the socialists, and his words will carry
great weight with those in Kenosha
who have allied, or who have proposed
to a11ay themselves with the socialist
political movement in Kenosha. The
Gazette of March15.
The words of Mr.. barrow undoubt-
edly influenced many of the voters
who heard him last night but not pre-
cise1y in the way the Democrats in
tended they should. If there was
ever an out and out socialist speech
made in Kenosha the speech made by
Mr.. barrow was one.
