WANT new CITY HALL
Increase in Paid Fire Department
Makes Some Change in the City
Hall Imperative.
TEMPORARY OFFICES NEEDED
Mayor Suggests That the County Building
be Leased and Used Until q New
Building Can be Built.
TEMPORARY OFFICES NEEDED


A campaign issue has been found for
the spring campaign in Kenosha and
that is the building of city hall for
the city. The changes that are being
planned for the FIRE department of the
city will make it almost necessary that
the city Offices be removed from the
old shell that has so long served as a
city hall.
With the naming of call men, be
they twelve or four, the city will have
to provide some sleeping quarters for
them and about the only available
place is the city hall. In order to find
room for these new men with the other
firemen it will be necessary for the
mayor, the city clerk, engineer and
even the Common Council to find new
place for their meetings.
Mayor Pfennig stated this morning
that there was no doubt that the city
had come to the point where it must
consider some plan to secure new
Offices for the city, 1.-THE present
Offices" he said, "are not at all suited
for the uses of the clerk and engineer.
There are no vaults for the preserva-
ton of valuable records of the city and
the old shell of city hall is not in any
way suited even as meeting place for
the common council. 1t will be neces.
sary for the new call men to have
homes near the central engine house
and it seems that this is an opportune
time to take some steps to move the
city offices. am unwilling to bring
any burden on the city to provide a
new city hall but it might be wise to
rent the old county building for tenn
porary use until the city is financially
able to build building that will be an
ORR ament to the city. The two north
offices in the old county building could
be shut off by partition and they
would furnish splendid place for the
meetings Of the scouncil. The front
room to the west would furnish a good
office for the clerk and the engineer
could occupy the east Office. Both of
the offices are well supplied with vaults
and the safety Of the records of the
city would be assured"
Ithas been suggested that the ques-
ton Of building new City Hall be
submitted to the voters for their decis-
ion at the next election, and see if
the people of the city feel that the i'm
provment is demanded. If the people
should vote in favor of an appropria-
ton for the building then the Council
would feel no hesitancy in borrowing
the money if it should be found neces-
sary to secure the funds needed.
The plans for the City Hall have
been made for years but 1t is probable
that they will be forced to sleep for
some longer time and the officials of
the city will have to secure some tenn
porary quarters pending the securing
Of funds for the purpose.

Head Officials OF the Latin, Rand Pow
der Company Spend a Day at
Pleasant Prairie Plant.
CHARCOAL FIRES A PUZZLE
President Patterson States That wisconsin
is the Only State Where the Char
coal Houses Have Burned.

] George Patterson and w. K. Du
Pont of Wilningtcn, Del, and FranA
L. Commable of Chattanooga, Tenn,
the three head officials of the great
/ Latin, Rand Powder Company ale in
Kenosha today for an inspection of the
big plant Of the company at the village
of Pleasant Prairie. They braved the
heavy storms and drove out to the
plant and spent the entire day looking
over the reports for the year and max
| ing plans for the plant for the COM
ing year.
There will be number of changes
in the plant during the next twelve
months but there will be no change in
the product during this time.
| In speaking of the visit Mr.. Patter-
son, who is.the head Of the company,
stated that the Pleasant Prairie plant
was now the greatest blasting powder
making plant in the world and that
the output of the plant in this county
was almost double that of any other
plant.
1--WE do not understand" said Mr..
Patterson, "these charcoal house fires
that have occurred at the Pleasant
Prairie plant. This is the only plant
IN our long list that has trouble of this
nature. 1t is possible Of course that
the climate of Wisconsin is to blame
for it, but we fail to find any other
reason" Mr., Patterson refused to
state that there was even possibility
that the house had been set on fire but
his attitude in the matter seemed to in
dictate that the officials of the company
would investigate the matter.
During the past few months the
head officials of the company have
been Investigating plans for the erec-
tion Of another plant at Pleasant
Prairie for the manufacture Of gun
powder. The location of the present
plant is especially fitted for this pur-
pose as large amounts of the powder
are being sold to the government for
delivery at the general supply store at
FIT. Sheridan. Mr.. Patterson stated
that it would be impossible to utilize
the present mill for the manufacture
of gun powder and for this reason it is
thought possible that the company will
decide to build a new mill on their
property.
The plans mean much to Pleasant
Prairie as, if the new mill is built. it
will mean that the number of men en-
ployed in the mills will be more than
tripled and Pleasant Prairie will be-
come the center of the powder industry
of the West.
During his short business trip to Ke-
nosha Mr.. Patterson revived the
friendships which he made in other
days and the story of how he purchas-
ed the great tract of land in Pleasant
Prairie was revived. 1t will be3remem-
bered that the first statements in re-
gard to the purchase of the land was
that the company buying it was plan
ming to convert it into great stock
farm. Mr.. Patterson simply chuckled
over the manner in which the people
of the Prairie were hoodwinked by the
powder company but asserted that the
purchase was good one.
