Chicago Tribune Tells of the Beauties of
Kenosha AS Summer Resort,


Kenosha As Summer Resort.
The following on Kenosha is taken
from the Chicago Tribune's directory
OF summer resorts:
kenosha, Wis.-Kenosha figured as
Chicago summer resort in the days
before the Michigan and Wisconsin
woods had been heard of. Vacation
goers were more timid in those DAYS
and they didn't like to go far from
home. This ancient popularity has
lasted and now it is on the increase.
Boating on Lake Michigan is assidu-
ously INDUCED in by the young men
and women of the summer COLONY.
and there is golf and sanitariun for
the older people. The Kenosha
county lakes are near enough for
those who are afraid of the larger
lake. Hotel rates run from SIS to SO
a week, and the railroad round trip is
$3.50, with cheaper prices for those
who are willing to rank as "com-
muters."

ROOSEVELT ON IRELAND
Report of an Interview With Core
spondent of the Dublin Freemau's
Journal

Dublin, June 22-The Freeman's
Journal publishes the following ac-
count Of an interview it's representa-
tive at the st. Louis fair obtained
with President Roosevelt at Washing
ton: ''The president said that the
English should not require pressure to
grant Ireland home rule. America
had many happy examples of federal
government. 1t was for England's
sake as well as Ireland's that America
wished to see the Irish claim granted.
The president was reading Morley's
Life Of Gladstone and said he thought
the home rule arguments convincing.
He expressed grear admiration for DR.
Thomas Emmett, who, he SAL, brought
him into the world.
I have Irish blood in my veins ;
said the president. we are very proud
Of the fact replied the correspondent.
oh, belong to many nationalities,
Roosevelt resumed. I have that one
qualification for president Of the
United States, a country of many ma
tionalities. I am partly Irish, partly
Dutch and partly English"

GOES INTO LIQUIDATION.
Hadden- Rodee Co. Transfers all Trades to
Hadden- Kennedy Company.

The Hadden-Rodee company of
Milwaukee which has branch office
in this city, went into liquidation
this morning and the officers of the
company have ordered that all trades
be closed out at once. At the same
time the officials of the company or
ganized the Kennedy com
pany to continue the business of the
firm.
A meeting of all the creditors of the
company will be held probably on
next Monday, and at that time some
move will probably be made to get a
settlement of all the affairs of the
concern.
F. H. Culver, the manager of the
local branch of the company, in speak
ing of the matter this afternoon
stated that the company's business
in Kenosha would go on under the
new firm. He said that the managers
of the company could not tell at this
time the condition of the affairs of
the company, but that it was his
opinion that the company would pay
dollar for dollar on all it's liabilities.
Many Kenosha people are interested
in the company and not a few have
stock in it.
sThe company was forced into 1iqui-
dation by the failure Of the Woodend
Company in New York and a1thoug h
the officials have claimed that they
owed the Woodend Company nothing,
it now appears that their interest will
have to be settled hY the courts.

WHEN this city's contract with the
lighting company expires it will not
be necessary to send any council
committee out to investigate rnuni-
cipa1 lighting in other cities. Keno
sha is prepared to go into the lighting
business as soon as the present con-
tract expires. A municipal lighting
plant may not be a good business
proposition but the people will never
be satisfied until they try it.

THE threats of the Governor and
his followers to ruin the Republican
party of Wisconsin if they are not
allowed to rule it, will probably have
about as much effect upon the regular
Republicans of the state as the
threats Of these same men to endan-
ger the success of the national ticket
in the state in the coming campaign,
if their delegates were not seated in
the National Convention, had upon
President Roosevelt and the members
of the National Convention of the
party. The regular Republicans
have too much faith in the sound
common sense of the people Of Wis
consin to believe that they will ever
consent to see absolute power vested
in one man. The same loyalty to
party which led Republicans to vote
for LaFo11ette two years ago whe-c he
was the regular nominee of the party
although they could neither approve
of the man nor his methods, still ex-
lists and the great majority Of Repub-
1icans will vote for the regular party
nominees in spite of all that may be
done to wean them from their allie
glance to the party and its principles.
No man is greater than the party that
made him, and1the older Republicans
who have seen other aspirants to alb
so1ute power bud and blossom and
sink into obscurity have no fears Of
the result in No Y eantbers

FoRrY-sIx per cent of the steerag

FoRTY-sIx per cent of the storage
passengers on two steamers arriving
at the port of New York last week
have been held by the immigration in
spectors for further examination to
determine whether or not they are
desirable additions to the population.
This is one result of the low rate
granted by the steamship companies,
and the extraordinarily high percen-
tage of detentions shows that the i'm
migration now coming into this coun-
try is of very doubtful value. Sta
tistics show that the percentage of
foreign born inmates of our asy1ums
and a1mshouses is constantly increas-
ing and this fact alone should be a
most powerful argument in favor of
more stringent immigration laws.
No other nation on earth would re-
ceive the class of immigrants now
being permitted to enter this country
almost without any restrictions, and
unrestricted immigration cannot be
permitted here much longer without
grave danger.

HARVEST OF DEAD CONTINUES
Number of Bodies Recovered of Those on
the Inflated Slocum Now Ag-
gregate 845.

New York, June 22.-The harvest
Of victims who lost their lives in the
General Slocum disaster continues. All
through the night, despite a terrific
electrical storm that swept over the
city, the searchers held to thet- work
and at this writing the total number
Of bodies recovered has reached 845,
and it is expected that every hour will
add to the number. 1t is hoped that
Identification will materially reduce
the large list of missing.
An alarming result Of the develop
ments of the last three or four days
has been that, although more than 300
bodies have been taken from the river,
the list of missing has remained al
most unchanged. When the total of
bodies recovered exceeded 750, the list
Of missing continued well in excess of
800. and is so now.

TALK about rubbing it in The Sec
rotary of one of the Hearst clubs in
Milwaukee has sued the esteemed

for some more campaign expenses. It
is estimated that the Hearst delegates
cost him something like $40, 900 apiece,
and in ali conscience isn't that enough
for what he gets out of it?

KENOSHA has none too many breath
ing places to meet the needs of it's
constantly increasing population, and
the work of providing for a lake
front park and breakwater promenade
should be taken up at once by the
Common Council. At this time no
great difficulty would be met with by
the city in securing title to the small
parcels of land owned by individuals
east of Durkee avenue from Eiche1-
man park to the power house. Even
if the city can not afford just at this
time to make any very extensive i'm
provements, the land could be set
aside for park purposes and it will
surely be needed at no distant day.
AT the rate property is rising in Ke-
nosha it will not be many years before
this land which can now be secured
for moderate price will become so
valuable that the city cannot afford
to buy it.
