THE desire to break records at tar
get practice was undoubtedly primar.
lily responsible for the disaster and
terrible lose of life on the United
States batt1eship Missouri. The
gunners knew that they were taking
an unnecessary risk in firing so rap.
idly, but in their anxiety to make a
record they went past the danger line.
A naval regulation fixing the maxi
mum limit of speed at which the guns
may be fired, we'll within the limit Of
safety, will undoubtedly be one of;the
results of the accident.

many other improvements are needed,
but there will be few complaints from
the taxpayers if the board of educa-

expended. The people of Kenosha
have always favored an extremely lib.

Thomas 3. Jef.ery Company Will Make
Another Big Addition to Their
Plant in the Coming Season.
GREAT FACTORY IN PROSPECT
Kenosha Is Destined to Have the Greatest
Automobile Factory In 'the United
states-Ramblers In the Lead.

When Thomas B. Jeffery, the pres
ent owner of the Rambler Automobile
Works, purchased the old Sterling
plant few years ago few people in
kenosha believed that a great in
dustry was to be built up in Kenosha
but the development of the Rambler
business in the past two years has
shown that Kenosha is destined to be
the home of the greatest automobile
plant IN the United States. During
the year just past the Jeffrey COM
Pany doubled it's plant and this morn
ing the managers of the plant an
nounced that work will be started in
fortnight on new factory building
which will be nearly as large as the
one which has. just been completed.
The new building will be $50 by 100
feet in dimensions and will be 1ocat-
ed directly south of the big factory
building completed last year. It will
be built entirely of concrete and steel
construction and will be absolutely
fireproof. The new building will be
used as building for a shipping
room and for the storage of automo-
bi1es. It will be of the most modern
construction ard will be arranged
with steel channels so as to allow
the storing of one tier of automobiles
above the floor. The storage capacity
of the new building will be several
hundred cars.
The work on the new building will
be started within the next two or
three weeks and it will be completed
as soon as possible.
With this new building the Rambler
plant will be one of the largest if not
the largest plant in this country used
exclusively for the manufacture of
automobiles. The fame of the
8 Rambler is now worldwide and
Notwithstanding the fact that the
force of workmen at the plant has
been increased as fast as the men
could be secured the output of the
plant is still far from sufficient to
meet the great rush of orders that
are pouring in from all over the
country. The Rambler carriages
have been prize winners at every
auto show and the endurance runs
which have been held in the country
during the year have done a great
deal to increase the sale of the ma
chimes.
The Rambler carriage today is rated
as the best of the low price machines,
and there is no carriage in the coun-
try that can force the Rambler driver
to lower it's co1ors. AS long as four
months ago it was announced that the
output of the plant for the year had
been sold, and the managers are now
making plans to force every depart
ment in order to fill the orders that
have been taken for the season.
The Sterling was in it's time a great
plant, but the new Rambler factory
promises to eclipse every record made
by that plant in its most pa1my days.

The plans and specifications for
the new Middle street bridge as adver-
tised by the city, require the success
full bidder to guarantee his bridge for
only one year after it has been ac-
copied by the city. This is probably
only the usual form used by all
cities in advertising for this class of
work, but Kenosha would like bridge
that the contractor who builds it will
be willing to guarantee for a good
deal longer time than one year.

If this epidemic Of crime among the
boys continues it will be necessary to
make an example Of some Of then be-
fore a great while. The 1eniency
displayed by the authorities in some
recent cases seems to have been
taken by the boys as an indication
that they would be permitted to do
about as they pleased without any
danger of punishment. It is a mis-
taken notion on their part and some

DEBS TO SPEAK HERE
Famous Leader of the LabOrinq Men
Coming to Ken0sha to Deliver an
Address on April 80.
TO BE GIVEN GREAT RECEPTION

Eugene Y. Debs, of Terre Haute,
Indiana, who is rated as one Of the
leaders of the 1aboring men of the
United States, and who is probably
the nominee of the Social Demo cratic
party for the Presidency, has notified
the 1aborers in Kenosha that he will
be their guest on the evening Of April
80. It is probable that this will be
the only visit that Mr.. Debs will make
to Wisconsin before the National Con-
vention of the Social Democratic
party, and for this reason the 1aboring
men in Kenosha, and especially those
connected with the Social Democratic
party, are planning to give their
leader a great reception.
Laboring men from all over South
ern Wisconsin will be asked to take
part IN the great welcome extended
to the leader. A labor meeting will
be held at the Rhode Opera House at
which time Mr.. Debs and other we'll
known. leaders will make addresses.
Later in the EVENING" Mr.. Debs will
hold reception to the faithful at
Trades and Labor Hall.
Eugene v. Debs has become figure
in National politics. He is regarded
as one of the greatest labor agitators
that the country has ever produced
and, while he has oftens been assai1ed,
it is evident that the 1aboring men of
the country still consider him a man
worthy of their confidence. He has
been candidate for President Of the
United States on their ticket, and will
probably have that honor conferred
upon him for second time when the
convention OF his party meets in Chi
cago this summer.
Debs is a powerful orator and his
address will be interesting to all
classes.

SOLDIERS BACKED OUT.
Corporal Price of the Army Comes to
Kenosha Looking For Recruits.

Corporal Price, the recruiting Of
ficer for the United States army, who
has been at work in this portion of
the state for several months, came to
Kenosha last night searching for
Sam Sorrensen and A. Nelson, two
Kenoshans who had signifed their
intention of joining the United States
army. The men had twice been asked
to appear to take the examination
but when they got ready for the ex-
animation it seems that their desire
to be soldier faded away. Neither
of the men could be found in Ken
osha last night and Corporal Price
returned to Racine without them.
Of course there is nothing to be
done in the matter as the men have
never been enlisted and they could
not be c1assed as deserters.

AFTER COAL DOCKS.
Chicago Company Seeks to get Pos
session OF the Nader Docks
For a Coal Yard.
BIG COMPANY MAY COME HERE.

Chicago men have been in Kenosha
effort to secure lease or purchase
of the Nader docks in the local har-
Dor with the idea of opening a coal
yard. Negotiations are now pending
to this end, but Alderman Nader
states that nothing has been done.
The men who are seeking the lease of
the docks are said to be connected
with a large concern in Chicago
which. has for some time made an
effort to locate coal yard in Keno
sha. Two years ago efforts were
made to get control of the Nader
docks, but at that time the docks
were not on the market.
The Nader docks are among the
best in the harbor. They consist of
500 feet of harbor frontage, and the
largest boats on the lake can land at
them. The main trouble in their use
for coal yard is found in the fact
that it is almost impossible to have
side track of railway built to them.
The tracks would have to be built
from the north, and it is possible that
several engineering difficulties would
have to be taken into consideration.
With the number of coal yards that
are now established in Kenosha,
many people cannot see how the bust
ness could be made paying one.
In the past few years The Nader
docks have also been sought by Chi
cago men for use as yachting head
quarters. They are admirably suited
FOR that purpose and there is sufficient
ground near them to allow room for
the building of splendid club house.

been stolen from the machinery plant.
The bells were evidently taken by the

two of the bells. No arrests were
made in the case but the boys will be
closely watched to prevent their tax

vic diseases have no idea that their
trouble is due to catarrh. The majority

sTocKMEN TO FIGHT TEXAS ITCH
Central Nebraska Association Pre-
pares DIPPING Fluid.

Central Nebraska Association Pre-
pares Dipping Fluid.
BROKEN BOW.-The Central Ne
braska Live Stock Association, whose
headquarters are here, has convened
again and decided that active meas
ures will be adopted in the suppress
sion of the Texas itch, now a great
plague among Nebraska cattle. The
method of attack is dipping, and the
fluid used is compound of lime and
sulphur. Broken Bow will be the
manufacturing and experimenting sta
ton for the territory of the associa-
ton, which, as the name implies, in
cludcs nearly the whole of the central
part of the state. The plan of the
association is cooperative and the dip
will be furnished members at cost,
which will amount to So per barrel,
or one-third of the rate charged on
ready-prepared dip by outside dealers.
Three years ago when the Central
Nebraska Live Stock association was
first organized the object was simply
union in defense against local stocE
thieves which at that time were very
numerous. Success in a paying meas
ure having attended this, the associa-
ton has lately taken to action against
other evils to which the stockman
is heir. When an animal having an
ailment arrives at market it is prompt
ly condemned and must either be dis
posed of on an enormous dock or re-
shipped at the owners expense AS
neither alternative is calculated to en-
rich the stockman it has been thought
necessary to cooperate on this also
to reduce expense.
