1t was a meeting OF the dlstrlct
workers The leader asked the captains IL IN
their opinion the Governor should be renohi-
mated They all reported their precints as
against the denomination of the Governor. linen
the leader asked them what effect Inc Refusal
to renominate the Governor would have on tne
state and national ticket. and every man pul
ona was forced to express his belief that Such
action by the Republican party OF the state
would have q disastrous effect.
There is a movement on foot, il was learned
Yesterday to try to shift the responsibility from
the leaders to the people by putting up t"o
tickets at the primaries. The idea Is under
stood TO be that of President Parsons OF the

date for member OF the City COMMITTEES. lhe

stated mat those who favor the denomination
of the Governor should vote the ticket oear-
ing his name.

IicIy the idea and declare he would put 1T in

Judge BeIden Files Final Judg.
ment in Case Of Hardware
Man Who Disappeared
CALLS FAY AN "ABsCoNDER'V
Judgment Declares That Fay Took
$4,000 in Cash When He Left Keno
sha- Estate Of Missing Man
Goes to His Wife

The closing chapter in the story Of
the disappearance Of George w. Fay,
the we'll known Kenosha hardware man
who disappeared from Kenosha nearly
a year ago was written in the Circuit
Court this morning when Judge Belden
filed a judgement granting to Mary D.
Fay, the wife of the missing man,
decree Of separation from bed and
board the custody of the Fay children
and all the property which Fay left he
hind. The decree will remain in force
until It is re-opened by either Mrs. or
Mr. Fay.
In the Judgment it is stated that the
evidence shows that the allegations in
the complaint made by Mrs. Fay in
which she charges her husband with
adultery with one Ella Walrath are
proven true. The judgment further
states that Fay ahsconded from Keno
sha on March IL, 1907, taking with him
upwards Of $4,000. At the time Fay
disappeared from Kenosha it was al
legged that he left large sum of money
in Che Merchants and Savings bank and
that he was practically without funds.
The evidence produced in court seems
to have lifted the halo that had been
placed about Fay by the allegations
that he took nothing with him and it
seems that he took what money he could
lay his hands on. The order Of the
court states that receiver was ap-
pointed to close up the business affairs
of the missing man and that after all
debts had been paid and the expenses
Of the receivership accounted for, there
remained $3387.50 in cash This by
the judgment Of the court together
with one share in the Cream City Roof
| ing Company in Milwaukee and all
open accounts of the missing man are
turned over to Mrs. Fay for her own
use
It was thought possible that before
the judgment was entered, the court
would receive sonie communication
from Fay in regard to the settlement
Of his affairs, but not one word has
been heard from the missing man. In
fact sine h day he left Kenosha none
/ Of his relatives has received any com
munication from him. It is known
however that he did not meet with foul
| play as his Attorney Calvin Stewart
has admitted that he received a letter
from Fay after he left Kenosha and
that he was certain that Fay would not
return to the city.
It has been reported that Fay is
living III Canada but this is said to be
based on rumor. AS the order Of the
court simply grants separation from
bed and board, Fay could not be per-
mitted TO marry again without being
guilty of bigamy. It is stated that the
court would have been willing to grant
an absolute divorce in the matter, but
Mrs. Fay did not seek decree.

MISS TONER "A BRIDE
Well known Kenosha Teacher Welded
to John Evans at st. James Church

Kenosha people occurred this morning

daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. Toner,

Evans of the Kenosha Hardware Com
pany. The ceremony took place at st.

tended by her sister Mrs F.,B. Hutchi-
son as matron of honor. DR.. Joseph

ding breakfast was served at the home

Property Owners Opposed to
Powder Making To Petit
ton State Legislature
WANT REGULATION OF PLANT
Many Pleasant Prairie People Are Not
lii Favor of Forcing Latin Rand
Company to Abandon Plant, But
Want State Inspection


While it is almost year before the
the meeting of the next State Legisla-
ture, people in Kenosha county who
have fear of the Powder Mills have al |
ready started a movement to have the
state legislature at it's next session take
some steps to regulate the manufacture
Of powder in the state and particularly
in Kenosha county. 1t is certain that
many people of the town Of Pleasant
Prairie have reaped benefits out of the
location Of the Powder Plant at the vii
lage and these people state absolutely
that they are not in favor of the legis-
lature passing a law that would put the
big plant out Of existence, but simply
to pass law which would regulate the
manufacture Of powder in the state and
give the plant proper state inspection.
Petitions will be put in circulation
throughout the county later in the year
and attorneys will be employed to go
| to Madison and make strong protest
before the proper committees CT the
| Legislature against the continuance Of
the manufacture of powder in the
state without proper state inspection.
In addition to these petitions two
coroners inquests in this county
have returned verdicts in which a
demand is made upon the legislature
for some sort Of proper inspection
of these plants.
In other states laws have been passed
for the proper inspection Of the plants
land it is claimed that these laws have
laided materially LII removing the dan
ger which must necessarily attend the
manufacture of powder. Assemblyman
Curtiss who il is thought will be candi-
date for reelection as member Of the
Assembly has already given some atten-
ton to the study Of these laws and he
will probably be in position to give the
| legislature some information when the
matter is brought before it next Janu-
airy. 1t is certain that there will be
several bills ready for presentation to
the legislature.
The attorneys for the company have
not taken any steps to prevent any
legislation as the fight which they made
30 prevent the passage Of such laws two
/ years ago was not a difficult one and it
is evident that they feel that the laws
if passed would not stand the test of the
Supreme courts of the State. The feel
ing of the whole people of Kenosha
county seems to be in measure oppos-
ed to the manufacture of powder here,
but these people realize that the com
pany has a large investment in the
county and that they should have
chance to continue to use their plant
under proper state inspection.

PRETTY CHURCH WEDDING

II. Farrell Married at st. James

At half past seven 'clock this morn
ing at ST. James Church occurred the
marriage Of Miss Gertrude Mcnamara,
daughter Of Mrs. Hannah Mcnamara
of Pleasant Prairie and Frank H. Far
rell of Kenosha. The ceremony was
read by the Rev Father Roche in the
presence of a large party Of friends
and relatives of the contracting
parties. The bride was attended by
Miss Mamie Rogan of Pleasant Prairie
as maid Of honor and Grover McNama
ra was best man.
After the service at the church a
wedding breakfast was served at the
home of Nh. and Mrs. w. S. Wilkinson
on Pomeroy street, Mrs. Wilkinson be-
ing the sister of the bride.
The wedding dinner was served at
the home of the bride in Pleasant
Prairie and Mr.. and Mrs. Farrell left
this afternoon for the south to spend
their honeymoon. They will make
their home at Russell, H., and will be

2-UENT RATE TO BE LEFT ALONE
Railroad Lawyer Says Law May Not
Have Had Fair Test

With reference to test of the 2-cent
passenger rate law affecting the rail
roads operating in this state, Edward
NJ. Hyzer, attorney for the Northwest
ern road, says: 81 have not heard a
word that would warrant me in saying
that the railroads have determined
what they will do one way or the other
with regard to the law and test Of it
in the courts. That question will be de-
cided by the officials Of the various
roads, and you may be sure it will not
be decided hastily. It is possible that
the past six months have not afforded
a fair test of the Jaw on account Of
financial conditions =
The six months trial of the new law
by the railroads expired on February
Is, after which time it was stated. the
roads expected to be in position to
know that under 2 cents mile they
were not earning reasonable interest
upon investments. End that therefore
they should LOOK upon the law as being
confscatory.
