FIND MEANEsT MAN AGAIN
Man Who Gave Lead Dollar for San
Francisco Poor to BE Given Medal

Man Who Gave Lead Dollar for San
Francisco Poor to Be Given Medal
The nleanest man has been located
again E cry once in a while the
meanest NAN turns up in Kenosha,
but the supreme limit has been reach
ed at last and the latest discovered
specimen of meanness is entitled to a
row of medals as long as worn by the
Sultan of Turkey. Here in Kenosha
where people are wont to hear the cry
of suffering and respond, it is sup
posed that the men responding will
be honest, but it has been discovered
that one man who took credit for CIV
ing aid to the sufferers of the earth
quake turned over to member of the
committee a lead dollar. It was not
even a passably good lead dollar, but
one so soft and mushy that the COM
nittee man could bite into it.
The member of the committee who
got this noteworthy contribution was
Alderman G. F. Stemm of the Sixth
ward. Stemm proudly carried his
contributions to the treasurer and
when the money was dumped out on
the marble topped table there was a
rattle similar to the falling Of pile
of lead pipe, and an investigation
showed the sham that had been prac
ticed by the supposed contributor to
the fund.
Alderman Stemm at once reached
down in his pocket and handed out
dollar, the coin Of the rea1n, to make
good the shortage, but he is now out
with spy glass and he offers re-
ward of SIS for the man who handed
him the lead dollar. The alderman
insists that if the man is found he
will have medal properly inscribed
as "The Meanest Man Yet"

Grand Gold Gittering and Glorious Free Street Pageant


rooted IN the minds of the aldermen.
This will leave the council free to
consider the proposition of the other
company without being hampered by
rival propositions.
The Chicago, Kenosha and Mil
waukee promoters have been busy in
other parts during the1ast few weeks,
and it is claimed that an ordinance is
being framed which Twill secure to
the company right of way into the
center of Waukegan. This ordinance
is to be presented as soon as the new
council at that place is organized and
ready for business. It is understood
that the company will make the same
offer to Waukegan as has been made
to the council here, but the right of
way sought in Waukegan is not nearly
SO long as the right asked for in this
city.
The matter has been held up so
long by the council that it is thought
that it would be an impossibility for
the line to be built this year even if
the council acted favorab1y on the
franchise ordinance.

Chicago, Kenosha & Milwaukee
Co. Again Urging the Passage
Of the Franchise Ordinance
READY TO FURNISH Bic BOND
Company Hasn't Given up Plan to Get
Through Kenosha but Will Push
Fight Before the City
Council at Once

The Chicago, Kenosha and Milwau-
kee Electric Railway company has
begun anew the effort to secure a
franchise Tor the use of Ashland ave-
nue. and representatives. of the COM
pany are now interviewing aldermen
consideration of the proposed fran
chise ordinance by the city council.
It was thought possible that the COM
pany had decided to abandon Keno
sha but since the council has settled
down to work again the promoters
of the road are back in the city and
the new members of the council are
being urged to take immediate action
on the spending franchise. The at
torney for the company stated this
morning that the company was
anxious to have the council act at
once. The new railway committee
has notaas yet Ebeen named by the
councilSand for this reason the pro-
moters Of the line have been forced to
go to the different aldermen and urge
that they take some steps to call up
the ordinancelfrom the pigeon hole in
which it has been sleeping for SO
many weeks. The attorneys stated
this morning that the company had
not gone back on a single offer it had
made to the city and that It was
ready today to accept franchise
ordinance in which it was specifically
stated thatGthe streets,should be paved
| from curb to curb and properly curbed.
This, of course, means macadam
paving. The attorney stated further
that the company was willing to give
the city bond Of a hundred thousand
dollars to assure the completion of the
work.
/ The managers ofsthe Kenosha E1ec-
trio Railway company have done
nothing to call up the ordinance pro-
posed by thatscomany and the opinion
that President Frost will not push the
ordinance seems to be pretty we'll

"WHEN thieves fall out honest men
get their Dues" and the fight that is
on between rival manufacturers of
computing" scales should serve to
call the attention of the officials. whose
business it is to protect the public
from false weights and measures, to
the need of thorough investigation
Of these contrivances. One concern
openly accuses its rival of manufac-
turing crooked machines, and the con-
Germ accused openly advertises that
its scales will "save" their cost to
their owners many times over in the
course of a years business. There is
no way computing scale or any
other kind of a scale can save it's cost
except by giving the public the worst
of the figuring, and il half the a1lega-
tons made against these machines
are true, the public is being cheated
right along. These scales are coming
into very general use all over the
country very rapidly, and the fact
that they are in such demand lends
weight to the suspicion that perhaps
the statesmen who handle them are
able to show the prospective purchas-
ers that their machines have some
special recommendations. It may be
that the whole outcry against these
scales is only another instance of the
unfair tactics Of trade rivals, but il
would do no harm for the proper au
thorities to investigate the -innei
workings Of the machines.

smoke on a Dead Issue.

A Kansas City lawyer named James
Garner told Of strange experience hs
had in the sound money campaign OF
1896.
1--WE were billed to speak," he said.
Sin a small town in northern Missouri,
but when we arrived we found that
the only hall In town had been filled
with apple barrels by the free-sflveY
Democrats to prevent us holding a
meeting.
''But we rustled around and finally
secured storeroom and held the meet
ing there. I was the first speaker,
and when arose laid my manuscript
upon a box in front of me and saw
that it was a coffin.
''The discovery so disconnected me
that for few seconds I could only
stand and stare at the coffin. q free
silver Democrat saw the cause Of my
embarrassment and made it worse By
shouting:
"'Oh, that's all right, Garner. Go
ahead on 4 dead issue, anyway -

ANY kind of competing road that
could get an entrance into Kenosha
could make the North Western hustle
to hold its freight business. The fact
of the matter is that the road has no
facilities to handle the enormous
business it does at this point and
worse than that it does not seem to be
making any very strenuous efforts to
improve conditions. For the past
three or four years the road has been
away behind with both incoming and
outgoing freight all the time and the
shippers who are obliged to do bust
ness with the road would welcome
any change that promised improves
ment.

Away-Lost More Than an Hour

Little Doris Sutherland Wanders
Away-Lost More Than an Hour

Sutherland, the little daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. Orrin w. Sutherland, who
reside at the Southern hotel, was lost.
The child had been out walking with
other children and wandered away

borhood was out searching for the

THE proposal to come to the relief
of San Francisco by taking the duty
off structural iron during the period
required to rebuild the city was
promptly sque1ched by the California
delegation in Congress because the
proposition would also have included
the admission of lumber free of duty
during the same time. While the
Ca1ifornians had no objections to get
ting little the best of the eastern
steel men they could not see the
necessity for any relief measure
which affected their redwood lumber
industry. In California as elsewhere
it makes big difference whose
pocket is touched.

RAthenian Bread Raking.

at the suggestion of the Princess
Sophia the ancient custom Of baking
bread in Greece is being discontinued
and the ovens are being remOdeled on
more modern plan. In the old ovens
a fire Of branches is kindled in the
compartment where the bread is
baked, and one Of ordinary wood in
that beneath. When the oven Is suf-
f1ciently heated the brushwood and
cinders are raked out and the bread
is put in their place.
The princess is president Of the So
cfety for the Protection of Forests, and
1t is in the interest Of this society that
her royal highness has labored to sub
St1tTte coke and other fuel for wood
There are in Athens alone about 2O{
bakers ovens, and at least % Of them
have already been made over. The
bakers have been persuaded to this
step by arguments Of economy. BY
the old system so cents worth Of Woo
was required to bake TOO pounds o.
bread, while the necessary amount o.
coke can be purchased for 40 cents
The bakers pay for the coke about
cent for 2.S2 pounds.

Now that most of the state en-
ployes have been put under the civil
service there have been numerous in
Quiries as to how far they might be
expected to mix in the coming cam
paign. The law is plain. It says:
"No officer, agent, clerk or en-
ploye under the government Of the
state shall directly or indirectly solicit
or receive or be in any manner con-
cerned in soliciting or receiving any
assessment, subscription or contribu-
ton or political service, whether vol
untary or Involuntary, for any political
purpose whatever.
Now it only remains to be seen how
it is obeyed.

TO PUSH CAMPAIGN
Social Democrats Of State Are
Getting Active for the
Fall Campaign
FOR A LARGE MEMBERSHIP

The Social Democrats are prepar-
ing for the fall campaign, and the
fight which they intend making in
the state will be on larger proport tons
than anything they have ever at
tempted before. Great efforts will be
made by the party to retain not only
the legislative strength which it had
IN the last legislature, but to make
gains so that there will be material
ly larger Social Democratic delegation
IN the next assembly than IN this.
The Social Democrats believe that
the results of the municipal campaign
in Milwaukee and other cities show
that they can increase their represent
tatives in the assembly from MilWau-
kee by at least three members, but
they will not confine their fight for
more members to Milwaukee alone.
They have their eye on several dis
tricts in the state and expect to be
able to make contests which will show
results in large number Of counties,
including Racine, Kenosha, Douglas,
Ashland and Sheboygan.
Reports from Carl Thompson and
other organizers who have been can
wasting the country districts of the
state during the winter are to the eff
feet that although the party probably
will not show enough strength to carry
these districts, it is much stronger in
this districts than most people mag
inc, and that a Social Democratic vote
will be registered from many of them
which will be surprise to the public
at large.

No Decision Expected in the Komp
Case on Saturday

1855
While the Supreme court will sit TO-
morrow it is not thought that any
decision will be rendered in the Komp
appeal at that time as during the
past two days the court has directed
the district attorney to send to Madi-
son the books of the Kenosha Trust
company, to be used in connection
with the consideration Of the appeal.
Tt is not thought that any decision
will be handed down before the 18th
Of the month.
District Attorney Baker seems to
believe that the decision of the Su-
preme court will affirm the holding Of
the lower court and that Komp will be
forced to serve out his entire term in
