Kenosha Business Mems Associ-
alton Co on Record on Propos-
ltion Of Electric Railway Co.
MEMBERS BANQUET TUESDAY
]. w. e. Rodgers Is Reelected as Presi-
dent of the Association and
Much Work Is Laid Ont
For the Year

The Kenosha Business Mems AS
ISOLATION has put itself on record as
opposed to the laying of T rails on the
streets of the city and in the near
future resolution will be sent to the
Common Council protesting against
this permit being given to the railway
company. The Council has already
given the company the right to lay a
i rail on Grand avenue, but the right
is given with the understanding that
the rails are to be removed in the dis.
erection of the Council and the girder
rails substituted. The action of the
Business Mems Association was taken
at the annual meeting and banquet of
the Association held at the Y. M. C. A.
building on Tuesday evening and be-
fore the decision was reached to send
the resolution to the Council many
Of the leading business men who had
investigated the rail proposition
stated their views. The sentiment
was almost unanimous against the T
rail.
The merchants stated that they had
found the rail opposed by business
men in many cities on account of the
fact that the rails were detriment to
the use of all sorts of vehicles on the
streets, and especially nuisance to
people who we're using delivery
wagons. It is expected that the reso-
luton will be presented to the City
Council at its next regular meeting.
The meeting was one of the most
successful ever held by the members
of Business Association in Kenosha.
The long tables, at which covers were
laid for thirty, were set in the main
auditorium of the Association build
ing, and course dinner was served
by the members of the Ladies Auxil-
larry of the Y. M. C. A. Dinner was
served at O'Clock, and after dinner
there we're no speeches.
The business meeting was called to
order by President Rodgers, and the
| business men at once launched on the
discussion of important trade SUBJ
| jects. It is planned to make the AS
ISOLATION great power for the ad-
vancement of the business interests
of Kenosha during the next year, and
the fact that many of the leading
business men of the city attended the
meeting Tuesday night shows that
the Association has the proper back
| ing.
The work of the organizatio will
not be limited to trade advancement,
but it will seek to advance every in
terest of the people of the city and
the city's business interests. To this
end regular meetings of the Associa-
tion will be held after the hot sum-
mer months are over and at these
meetings there will be speakers who
will present the pertinent points of
civic life in new guise. The Asso.
citation will be ready to cooperate
with all other associations in the city
which seek the advancement of Ke-
nosha. The following is the list of
officers of the Association for the new
year:
President. w. E. Rodgers.
Vice President-A. B. Ames.
Secretary-L. H. Holbrook.
Treasurer William Fisher.
