convention would probably need to be
a litfleslonger to accommodate the ac-
Acumulated business, but its brilliancy
and value would be augmented by the
absence of hampering consideration
of expense, or fears of extravaganza.
Conditions Have Changed
The claim has been made that fed
Grafton interests and club interests
will both suffer if the yearly meetings
are discontinued. No one who studies
the situation carefully will consider
this long. Conditions in Wisconsin
have changed since the early days Of
federation. The infant which needed
constant attention then will get along
very we'll now with less frequent feed
ings. The large clubs have learned
too thoroughly the value of federated
work to drop out of it, and the smaller
ones. under a changed order, will be
far more likely to be well represented
at biennial convention, to say moth
ing of being able occasionally to send
delegates to the general federation
Notwithstanding almost unheard
of now, with very many of them.
But, since communion is the very
life of the club movement, we shall
find the districts organizing and meet
ing annually at such times in the year
as suit them best, calling together
clubs of like environment and prob
lens. The state committees, natur-
ally needing at least yearly consrlta-
ton, can some of them, with state
officer or two, arrange to meet with
these small gatherings; and thus to
many community ard to its smaller
clubs will be brought a breath of
broader life which otherwise they
might never have. The district con-
vention should be the real occasion Of
those heart to heart conferences
which we used to dream of in the state
federation, but which have proved
neither appropriate nor practical
there. Here many club woman will
get her first taste Of the delight of
wider association, and both state and
national gatherings will gain in inn
portance in her eyes"
The plan, however, has it's op-
ponents, who can point to Mrs. Sarah
S.. Plat Decker, president of the Gen
eral Federation, as being of their
tqpi41ion.
The second amendment, in a man
ner, hinges on the first and provides
THAT district deliberations must pay an
dual dues of SIS,

The good results of the insurance
scandals are bound to be drastic re-
forms in the management Of these
great corporations and consequent
decrease in the cost of insurance, but
the evil result of all this agitation will
be that a good many men who have
families dependent upon them will
neglect to safeguard the future by re-
fusing to carry any insurance at all
This loss of confidence in insurance
is serious matter, and the men who
are unsparingly condemning the vena1
and corrupt officials of the big insur-
ance companies would do we'll to I'm
press upon their hearers that they are
attacking the management of the
companies, and not the principle Of

CAR IN COLLISION
Car on the Kenosha Electric Rail.
way ColIides With Buggy at
Prairie Ave. Crossing
MEN HAVE NARROW ESCAPE

August Leske and William Cargis,
both residents of North Oak street
had narrow escape from meeting
death late Sunday evening when the
buggy in which they were riding was
struck by an electric car at the
Prairie avenue crossing of the street
railway. Both Emen escaped with
their lives but both we're terribly
bruised np'and the vehicle in which
they we're riding was all but de.
molished.
The accident occurred just before
nine O'Clock. The two men had been
drivings west onsAPrairie avenue and
and they we're going at a rapid rate
Of speed. The horse was moving at a
ga1lop when the two men approached
the crossing of the electric railway.
The car coming, from the south was
also moving at good speed and the
men must have seen it approaching.
However, Cargis, who was driving,
decided that hescould make the cross
ing and started ahead.
Motorman Jensen was in charge of
the car Eand he made every effort to
stop, Eputting on the brakes so hard
that the three passengers in the
car were thrown from their places.
The effortsto stop the car was of no
avail and the collision which followed
sent the buggy and its occupants in
to the air in great shape. Both men
we're thrown from the vehicle, Leske
falling ,on the tracks of the North
western road.
The car was not badly damaged in
the collision and after short stop to
see that the two men were not serious
| ~ injured the car proceeded on its
trip down town.
! Cargis was the first to get up and
he eftSLeskes laying along the side
walk while he went in search of new
wheel forsshis. buggy. When he re-
! turned crowd had collected and
aided him in patching up the buggy
so that he could get home. Fortunate
| ly the horse escaped without a
scratch. Had it not been for the
heroic efforts of Motorman Jensen to
stop the car it is probable that the
collision would have resulted in
both of the men being killed and
! several passengers Of the car being
badly injured.

THE building boom on Wisconsin
street has revealed the fact that the
sewer connections on that street at
least were all put in wrong and every
time a connection is to be made now,
the builder has to pay a good long
price for some ones care1essness or
neglect of duty. Here is case where
it is easy enough to figure out the
cost Of the lack Of intelligent super
vision in dollars and cents. 1t is
often easy enough to see that mis-
management is expensive, but it is
not often possible to get at the cost
exactly.

THE fight for the Post Check sys-
tenn will doubtless be taken up again
as soon as Congress meets. It's advo-
Gates are not men who are easily dis
couraged by opposition, and the favor
with which the idea has been re-
ceived ali over the country should be
sufficient encourageme for them to
persevere. The secret of the opposi-
tion lies in the fact that a post check
currency would interfere with the
business Of the express companies
and with the cumbersome machinery
of the money order division of the
Postofice department, In Washing.
ton these two obstacles may be "a goo6
and sufficient reason for the failure Of
Congress to act, but this explanation
will hardly do for the country a
large. The people are coming to be
lieve that the post check. system
would be a great public convenience
and that it's entirely practical, and i
will take better arguments than any
yet put forth by the opponents Of the
measure to convince them that il
should not be given a trial.

SOUTH EXCHANGE street is an ex-
ample of paving done in freezing
weather, and the men who are paying
the bills do not care to see any more
like it in the city. Of course it does
not make such difference with brick
pavement, but unless the contractors
will agree to complete the proposed
work before severe cold weather sets
in, the improvements had better be
postponed until spring.

The eyellow fever IS 4. receding
steadily before the advance of the
cold weather, and at the present rate
of progress it will be but short time
before the quarantine IS raised all
through the South. New Or1eanshas

proper sanitary precautions. and until
this lesson is forgotten it is unlikely
that conditions will again be per-
mitted to get so bad that the fever can
get beyond control.

company. It is claimed that the com
Pany has granted this concession to
other cities in the state and that there
is no reason why it should pot be
granted at Kenosba. The committee
will take up the matter this week and
report at an early meeting of the
council. This Concession would in
no way do away with the boGd' that
the company has to furnish to the
city t. secure the replacing of the
pavements taken up TO make possible
the laying Of corduits.
Much Paving Wanted
An epidemic of street p wing seems
to be prevalent ii the city and the
council gave large amount of time
last night to the discussion OF pave
nents. The bids for the paving of
the alleys and Market and Lake
streets were opened on Monday after
noon aud John o. Jones had the low
bid but the contract Will not be let
until Thursday evening and in the
meantime the city council viii take
test of the brick to be used according
to the Jones bid. \ move IS on for
the paving of West Main street from
Prairie avenue to Grand avenue and
II is expected that petition to this
effect will be presented to the council
at It's next regular meeting. It is
claimed that the officers of the North
western road have relented and will
pay one half the cost Of such paving.
The people owning property on Elk
change street, sou. 44us. &c street. Z
presented petition to the council
asking that this street be paved with
macadam. The matter was laid over
until next year, but the work will be
started in the early spring. The
property owners on English Court,
between Park avenue and Durkee
avenue, asked that that street be
paved with vitrihed brick, and this
was also laid over until spring. Pc.
titions we're presented asking that the
alley between Exchange and Main
and Park and Wisconsin streets be
paved with brick, and an effort will be
made to have this work done this
year.
Claims Committee Busy
The committee on claims promises
to have busy time for the next few
weeks, as two demands for damages
were presented to the council Monday
night. The first was from Kristen
Neergaard, who claims that he was
injured on September 20 by falling on
a defective sidewalk on Rowland ave-
nue.. The second was from George
Wade, who declares that his wagon
was capsized on Salem avenue on ac-
count of the condition of the street
after the sewer had been put in. This
matter was left to the committee on
claims for an early report.

AS AN indignant citizen pointed out
in his letter to News readers yester-
day, the time to stop the reckless
speeding of automobiles through the

after. The law on the subject is
plain, and public opinion will not
