Long before the last vote had been
counted last night the Wall forces were
willing to concede defeat 1t was when
the returns from the first precinct of
the fourth ward had been received that
the Wall forces admitted the election
of Johnson. 1t was in the fourth ward
where It was expected Mayor Wall
would have so large majority that
Johnson,s strength in some OF the 9TH
er wards would count for naught.
However, Mr. Johnson developed
strength in the fourth ward and when
| this fact became known it was admitted
| that there was no hope for Mayor
Wall.
Briefly told, Johnson carried FIVE out
OF the seven wards In the city. The
third and fourth remained faithful TO

Little Sons Of Mr.. and Joseph
DokIetar Of This City Held
by Government officials
SUPPORT MUST BE ASSURED
Children Stopped at Ellis Island and
Held Pending the Assurance That
They Will be Properly Supp
ported in Kenosha

After travelling alone for nearly two
thousand miles in order to make their
home with their parents, Stephen
Dokletar aged II years, and julius
Dokletar aged 6 years, the sons of
Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph Dokletar, who
reside at No. 342 Lemon street in Ken
osha have been held by the govern
ment officials at Ellis Island in New
York, and they will not be released
until after an affidavit is received by
which the father guarantees that the
children will be given proper support
in their new home.
The two sons are the last members
of the Dokletar family to come to
America. Two years ago Dokletar
and his wife came to Kenosha to make
home for their children and they
were left with relatives..in Hungary
to be cared for pending the success of
the venture in the new world. Three
months ago the father secured his
home and he sent letter ordering
the two little boys to come on to Ken
alone. They sailed froms:Nancy in
France on Oct, 20, and.arriyed in New
York two weeksj ago today on the
steamer Ultonia At this point their
Journey came to a sudden termination
as they were taken inton custody by
the immigration officials and ordered
held at Ellis Island until such a time
as their support was assured. Step
hen, the oldest boy had money enough
to pay the fare of, himself and his
little brother to Kenosha, but this was
not sufficient Ito satisfy the govern
ment officials.
Dokletar when seen this morning
stated that he had no idea that the
children were alone, as he had ar
ranged to have them make the trip
from Hungary to Kenosha with two
of his friends, but that at the last
minute the men had decided not to
come and the children refusing to be
disappointed had insisted on making
the trip alone. Dokletar this morn
ing went before notary and made
the proper afidavits and athese we're
forwarded to New Yorks this after
noon, and it is expected that the child
rem will reach Kenosha by the latter
part of next week. The father and
mother of the children are we'll known
among the local Hungarisns and
preparations are being made for a
great celebration in connection with
the coming Of the children.
Many Kenosha people have been
held up at Ellis Island during the
last few months and it is claimed that
more people pass through the custom
house at Ellis Island bound for Keno
sha than for any other city of the
same size in the countrv. Most of
the people are stoppedson account of
some real or fancied ailment, and thus
far not one of the Kenosha immi-
grants have been deported.

General Investigation Of Milk Of
fered For Sale in Kenosha
County Being Made
WOULD GIVE FAR MERS CHANCE
McAdams of Madison Fin
ishes HE Trip Through the County
and Farmers Anxiously
Await Results

William McAdams, of Madison,
deputy state food and dairy commits
sioner, has just completed tour of
inspection through Kenosha and RAJ
cine counties and has sent to the
laboratories of the state board hum
dreds of samples of milk taken from
different farms in the two counties.
These samples will be examined at
once, and should they fail to pass the
test demanded by the state law, the
farmers will hear from them.
Commissioner McAdams came to
Kenosha county many weeks ago and
took few samples Of milk to be
tested by the state, and as result of
these tests there were four arrests for
selling milk that was not p to the
standard demanded by the {. .sconsin
laws. When the men = 1-ged with
selling the watered Z Tx were ar
raigned in court tn declared that
they were doing ming that their
neighbors did not do, and for this
reason the commissioner decided to
make a general inspection of milk
sold in the county Samples we're
secured from nearly every milk dealer
in the city, and after this had been
done the inspector went out into the
rural districts and began the work of
gathering samples for test from the
farmers. The milk awas purchased at
the regular rates and the farmers
were notified that the report on it
would be forwarded to them.
The state plans to give the farmers
a chance, and if this test shows that
the milk has been watered the farm
ers will be given chance to reform
and later on the inspector will make
another visit to the county and secure
new samples from the same places.
Should these samples fail to pass the
test the men will be arrested and
prosecuted. The fine is from SIS and
costs up to 500 and costs. Thus far
of viola ting the state law have been
given the minimum fine.
The state boards seem to be giving
great deal of attention Ito Kenosha
this year. The state tax commission
gathered much of its material on val
ues in Southern Wisconsin from the
Kenosha county records, and during
the last few weeks the factory in
spectors have been decidedly busy in
the city. During the year more than
forty arrests have been made by the
different state inspectors in this
county, to say nothing of the arrests
made by the deputy game wardens.

Mrs. J. CHESS and Mrs. e. III. Schultz
Kill Big Game in Nor thern Woods
Kenosha county viii have the honor
of having the first woman to bag a
deer IL the season of 1906, but there is
one doubt as to whether the honor
should go to Mrs. Jacob Giess or Mrs.
E. Fl. Schultz. A letter from Romu-
lus last Friday states that Mrs.
CHESS and Mrs. Schultz both bagged a
deer on the first day they were in the
woods and they are now resting on
their laurels. Neither of the women
suffered from buck fever and both
brought down the big game at the
first shot. The members Of the party
are Mr.. and Mrs. Geiss, Mr.. and Mrs.
Schultz, B. @. Sturges and Michael
F. Bode. The party has already Sc
cured five deer but the ones killed BY
the two ladies of the party are among
the largest killed about Romulus this
