DR.. Vietch stated this Afternoon
that it might be possible that deputies
would be named IN some of the other
towns of the county later in the year,
but that at the present time the other
towns would be left without deputies.
1t is possible that Under Sheriff
Charles Whitcher, of the town of
Bristol, will be added to the list of
deputies before it is filed for record
with the clerk of the court.
The list of deputies is entirely diff
ferent from the list in other years and
ali of the old time assistants Of the
sheriff have been cut off.
Out in Salem, Marvin Acker had
been a deputy for many years and he
had become one of the feat
ures of the town of Salem. But DIR.
Vietch has removed the star from
Acker and in the future James Pease
will have the power of the law in
Salem.
Andrew Hi1denbrand of Pleasant
Prairie is new man on the list. He
is well known horseman and is in
charge of the Uih1ein stock farm.
Broderick who has been named in
Son1ers is also new man.
The list in Kenosha is composed of
well known men and all of them with
the exception of Minke1 and O'Hare
are new to the business of the deputy.
All are competent men.

! DAN cox INJURED.
Well Known Brick Mason Has His Left
Hand Mangled in Jointing Machine.

R
Dan Cox, one of the best known
brick layers Of the city, met with a
bad accident at the plant of the Chi
cago Brass Works Tuesday night
which may result in his having to
give up his trade. Mr.. Cox was at
work making a base for Christmas
tree for his home, and in order to fa-
cilitate- the work he had asked to be
permitted to Use the jointer at the
mill; In some manner his left hand
was pulled into the machine, and be-
fore it could be stopped the thumb
had been severed and two of the fin
gers SO badly bruised that amputa-
ton was necessary. He was removed
to the hospital, where the injured
hand was dressed.
While there is no danger of the &C
cident having a fatal ending, the
hand is very badly mang1ed.

passed the soffaeia1s of the company
will have to come up decidedly in their
offers to the.city. Aag
Then the Kenosha Electric Railway
company is not expected to lay down
to new company without making a
fight, and there are quite a number of
the aldermen who are decidedly fav-
orable to the company, and believe
that it would be unfair for the city to
grant franchise to another local
company at this time This idea,
however, does not affect a sufficient
number of the members of the council
to prohibit the passage of the ordi-
nance, and the others are of the opin-
ion that the field should be an open
one with no favorites.
Some of the aldermen are in favor
Of submitting the whole matter to the
people and having a special election
to decide as to whether or not the
grant should be made. This plan is
now being adopted in all the larger
cities of the country, and the people
of Kenosha would undoubtedly con-
slider the matter with as much care as
the seventeen members of the COM
mon council.
The application for the ordinance
will be published tomorrow in the off,
cial paper of the city, so that it win
not be possible for the council to take
any action on it until early in Febru-
arY.

Members Of The City Council
Getting Ready to Prune the
Franchise Ordinance.
OPPOSE LONG TIME CLAUSE.
Others Think That the City Has Not
Received Sufficient Remuneration
for the Grant Asked for.-Think
80 Year Franchise Too Long.

The members of the city council are
already getting out the pruning hooks
for the franchise presented by the
Park City Electric Railway company,
and interviews with majority of the
aldermen show that the franchise in
its present form will hardly be accept
able to the city council
The aldermen seem to think that
the franchise which has been sent in
5 in the way of fee1er, and that the
company is willing to have it revised.
It would be impossible for the pro-
jectors to do any work until next
spring, and for this reason there will
be plenty of time for them to consider
the changes that will be demanded by
the council.
The first and greatest objection
that the councilmen have offered to
the proposed franchise is the fact
that its life is placed at ninety-nine
years, and the aldermen are almost
unit in their declaration that no fran
chise for the use of the streets Of the
city should cover so long time. The
life of the franchise under which the
Kenosha Electric Railway company
is working is fifty years, and there
was a great howl raised on this fran
chise when it became law with the
sanction of the council.
The second objection is found in
the fact that the city has not been
taken care of by the company, and if
any ordinance for a franchise is
