Representatives Of Pure Food
Commission Come for Sam
Piles Of Merchandise.
SOME ARRESTS MAY FOLLOW
Many Products Sold in Kenosha Stores
are Under the Ban and it is Claimed
That Dealers are Imposed Upon.

Representatives of the Wisconsin
Pure Food department have been in
Kenosha during the last few days
making their annual assault upon the
grocers of the city and it is expected
that there will be several arrests for
violation of the pure food laws within
the next few weeks. The agents of
the state came IN such an unassuming
manner that few of the grocers knew
of their presence in Kenosha and it
was only by the merest chance that
the identity of the men was discover
ed. One grocer however who had
been in business in another city and
who had made the acquaintance of
the pure food inspectors on another
occasion recognized him and refused
to sell him the articles wanted de-
claring that they were not in stock.
The agents bought a generous
supply of canned goods, o1eomar-
garine and other food sproducts sold
in the stores of the city and these will
be taken to Madison and submitted to
the state department.
Nearly every grocery store in the
city was visited and for couple of
weeks the grocers will be on the
anxious seat.
One of the leading grocers of the
city in speaking of the matter today
stated that he was not aware of the
fact that the inspector had visited his
store but stated that it was the pur-
pose of the firm to sell on1y..rgoods
approved by the state department.
"Once in awhile" continued the deal
er 1--WE get hold of stuff that is under
the ban but when it is sold to us by
the jobbers it is sold with the under
standing that it is fully in keeping
with the laws of the state. Grocers
in Wisconsin have learned theuweight
of this law and do not think that
any of them are willingly violating
the law in Kenosha."
Some time ago the pure food com
missioners made swoop down on Ke-
nosha places of business and as re-
suit many of the grocers were called
to account for selling i1nita ton butter.
The present investigation promises
to go deeper and canned goods are be.
ing investigated by the state officials.
The result of the Investigations will
probably be made public within a few
weeks.

Receipts Of the Post Office for
the Quarter Just Closed the
Largest in Its History.
MONEY ORDERS IN THE LEAD
Increase in This Branch of the Post
Office Business Particularly Notice
able.-Large Annual Receipts.

Postmaster Charles Frantz has Just
forwarded to the Postmaster General
the report of the Kenosha post office
in this city for the quarter ending
September 80 and the amount of
money received in the post Office dur
ing the quarter is the greatest IN the
history of the Office. The total amount
received from the sale of stamps and
money orders during the quarter was
So, 950.04 and the amount received
during the same quarter the preced-
ing year was but So, 659.68. This is
decidedly healthy increase in the bus
mess of the Office for the year and if
the last quarter keeps up the ratio the
receipts of the Kenosha Office for the
year 1904 will reach the $4,000 mark
and will exceed those of the preced-
ing year by more than $1,000. The
greater part of these receipts were
from the sale of postage stamps and
postal cards, the total revenue received
for the government from these sources
being $6,805.
Just at the present time the money
order department of the office is es-
tab1ishing new record for the fees
received. The post office is acting in
the capacity of private bank for
many of the poorer people of the city
and many of them are buying money
orders simply for the purpose of Sc
curing a safe depository for their
money. While the government pays
no interest on these small sums so de-
posted the money is absolutely safe
and the depositor can always rest as
sured that he can get at it at any time
he cares to deposit his order. The
fees received for this sort of business
are rapidly mounting up.
The money sent out of Kenosha in
the way of postal orders is far in ex-
cess of the amount received. The
domestic money orders issued during
the last month alone amounted to
$4, 249 80, for which the Office received
in fees the sum of $34.35. Another
department of the Office is the inter-
national money order department and
this has showed great growth. The
amount of money sent 20 foreign
countries during the month was ST.
$3.50 the largest amount ever known
in single month in the Kenosha Of
fee.
When it comes to the money order
department the Kenosha office is de-
cidedly an exporter for the total
amount received in the Office for Ke-
nosha parties on domestic orders was
but So, 817.77 and the total amount re-
ceived on International orders was
but 1926.
Most of this money which goes to
foreign countries is sent to Italy and
Russia either for the support of fami-
lies left behind by workmen or 20 fur
nish transportation for others of the
same nationality who are coming to
this country to seek employment.

TO ASK STATE AID
Town Officers in Ice Districts
Would Prevent the Spread
of Disease.
MAY ASK FOR VACCINATION.

A concerted move is being made
among the officials of towns in the
different counties in the state to have
the state health department take some
steps to prevent the spreading of con-
tagious diseases by men imported to
Wisconsin to work in the ice0fe1ds.
1t is known fact that in.the last few
years nearly every case of the small
pox reported to the state board has
found it's inception in the camps of
workers in the ice field.
Within another month the army of
men who are to fill the big houses
with ice will begin to arrive and
thousands of men will be imported to
the different lakes in the county by
the managerssof the big companies.
These men are picked up from ali
over the country and to say thes1east,
they are very undesirable class of
men. The officials have suggested to
the state board of health that the mat
ter be taken up with the Illinois
health board and that some arrange
ments be made to safeguard the men
against the spreading of disease. The
companies employing the men could
easily provide this safeguard by de-
handing that the men be vaccinated
before they are taken into their en-
ploy, but the demand for the men is
so great and the competition among
the different companies so keen that
it is almost impossible for the compa.
MES to make such demand.
The matter will probably be referred
to District Attorney Buckmaster and
he will have chance to take up the
question with the managers of the
company and it is possible that they
will agree to do something @1ong this
line. In other years the companies
have complied with all the demands
made upon them by the district attor-
ney of this county.
