New York. Oct. I. 1901

To the Honorable Secretary. State Land Board.
Albany y. Y.
Dear Sir: 1t is with great surprise that this COM
mittee has heard OF the suggestion which seems 90
emanate from the State Land Board TO sell Fire
Island 20 private parties Entirely aside from ths
question of price, which TO US iunmateTial Il
is a matter OF great disappointment that the state
should even consider alternating this property.
The city of New York has recently at very great
expense. acquired a seaside park at Rockavay. and
II has contemplated procuring an additional park
at Long Beach. The common lands OF the town
OF Gravesend were sold TO private parties not many
years ago, and as consequence the city has never
been able to obtain suitable public outing placs
at Coney Island. which. you know, constitutes
the natural playground OF New York CITY.
Fire Island will in the future be svzilsbis
for similar purposes. and. New York City will In
evitably constitute an advantaseous purchaser
should the state wish TO sell In the mean time. IN
our Judgment. the island should be publicly -
tanned IN the interest OF the sick and needy chill
dren of the commonwealth This COMMITTEES would
greatly appreciate clear statement OF the reasons
which have induced your board consider the sale
OF the property Awaiting your advice, remain.
respectfully yours. CALVIN TOfKISS

FIGHT ON DYNAMITE
Pleasant Prairie Farmers Take
Fight on Powder Trust to
the State Legislature
PETITIONS BEING CIRCULATED

The people Of the village Of Pleas
ant Prairie and the farmers residing
In the neighborhood off the powder
mills of the Laf1in-Rand Company in
that town have carried their fight to
the State Legislature and petitions
are now being circulated asking the
members of the Legislature 0to pass
a bill which will practica1lysput the
Powder company out of business in
Wisconsin. The bill has been intro
duced in the assembly by Assembly
man Curtiss of this countys and it will
certainly have a great effect on the
business of the Kenosha county plant
if it is passed.
The petitions state that this bill
should be passed at once on account
of the fact that the company is stor-
ing as much as 10000 pounds of
dynamite at the plant at the present
time. 1t is claimed that recently two
cars of dynamite containing many
tons we're left standing in the railway
yards in Kenosha for many hours, bat
this statement can not be verified.
The bill proposed by Assemblynsan
Curtiss, which has just been reported
from the committees on revision, pro-
vides that 40 powder shall be manu-
featured within half mile Of any
village, church or school house within
the state of Wisconsin and that no
company shall store at any plant in
the state more than one thousand
pounds of dynamite or giant powder
after the first day Of next May. The
bill limits the amount of powder to
be manufactured at one time to one
thousand pounds. The violation of
the law is made punishable by a
prison term or fine of from $500 to
So, 900. Under tKes bill the manufac-
tnre of powder and the management
of all powder making plants will be
under the direct supervision of the
state factory inspector and he shall
be furnished chart of the grounds
and buildings beforei any powder is
made.
Many people have signed the petit
tions in Kenosha as well as in Pleas
ant Prairie and other lparts Of the
county.

GOOD FEELING SHOWN

Racine, Milwaukee and Kenosha Horse
men Met in Racine Monday Night
Nearly score of Kenosha sports
men went to Racine Monday to at
tend the banquet given by the mem
bers of the Racine Driving Club.
After the banquet an informal dis
cussion of plans for the formation of
a tri-city driving club among the
horsemen in Racine, Kenosha and
Milwaukee was held, but no de-
finite action was taken. The Racine
horsemen have agreed to come to
Kenosha for the meeting to be held
on July 4th and the Kenosha horses
will be seen on the Racine track later
in the year. The Milwaukee club will
will arrange several meetings for the
Kenosha and Racine horsemen,
TIE best Of spirit prevailed at the
banquet and the bonds of good fell
lowship between the horse owners of
the three cities we're firmly cemented.

KILL MAIL ORDERS
The People Of Kenosha Should
Fight all the Big Chicago
Catalogue Houses
90 THE TRADING AT HOME

Many millions of dollars are sent
annually by Wisconsinspeople to the
catalogue houses of Chicago. The ex-
tent of this business is shown by the
rapid charging and rebuilding Of
mammoth establishments, the high
rate of dividends, the listing of stocks
on the Chicago exchange and the i'm
mense amount of advertising. Big
dividends also argue that the boasted
cheap prices are merely apparent.
Some Wisconsin towns report that
one-half of the goods coming to the
freight warehouse is sent directly to
customers instead of to the local
merchants. Wisconsin people, Doth
rural and urban, are patronizing
catalogue houses EXTENSIVELY.
This method of buying has many
difficulties. Many crude cuts of
articles must be examined. Many
pages of highly lowered descriptions
in fine print must be read laboriously
to discover, if possible, what appears
to be the article desired. After much
debating and indicision, certain
articles are chosen. Then minute de-
tails of size, color, weight, ETC., must
be written on the elaborate. blanks of
the company. A money ordersor draft
is obtained and the bulkya order is
finally on its way to Chicago.
Days or weeks later the sgoods ar
rive. A heavy freight charge on re-
tail shipments of a miscellaneous
order is inevitable. Unpacking re-
veals the usual insists and the wrong
colors and poor qualities General
dissatisfaction with part or all of the
goods often necessirates repacking
and carriage to the freight depot for
return to Chicago. The returned
goods are accompanied by long ex-
plantations of the error and the desired
correction. After more exasperating
details goods which give fair degree
Of satisfaction are in the hands Of the
customer. The urgent need for some
of the goods has passed. 1t is case
of buying laboriously with only ap-
parent cheapness, then repenting
with equal WEAKNESS.
