MAY PAY BONDS NEXT YEAR
Financiers Believe That City is in De-
fault by not Providing Sinking Fund

Financial men Of the city have dis
covered an interesting point in re-
gard to the refunding of the de-
partment which were issued ten
years ago and which will be due
ten years from the first day of
July this year. The bonds amount to
$4,000 and are drawing 31a per cent.
interest. According to the reading of
the bonds, the redemption of them may
begin a. year from this July and at the
city's option any amount of them may
be paid off at that time. The men in
terested in the matter declare that
under the laws Of the state the city
should each year set aside money for a
sinking fund equal to one-ffth of the
amount of the bonds and in this inter
probation of the law they hold that the
city is now in default in the sum of
$85, 1000 as this portion of the indebted
ness should have been provided for in a
sinking fund by this time. It is
claimed that the bondholders can de-
mand the payment Of the bonds on the
day thev fall due and at that time the
city will have to make provision to
take up the entire issue. Under the
present valuation of the property of
the city this would mean an added levy
Of one per cent.

SECOND BIG SUIT
Heirs Of John e. Hall Demand $4,000
Damages from the N. w. Ry. Co.

The Northwestern Railway Company
was named as defendant in the second
ten thousand dollars damage suit of
week this morning when the heirs of
the late John E. Hall through John
Hegeman, administrator of the estate,
fled suit in the Circuit Court demand
ing damages from the company for the
killing of Hall which occurred at the
Strong street crossing Nov. 1, 1907.
The complaint in the suit declares that
the death of Hall was directly due to
the negligence of the employees OF the
company in blocking the crossing with
freight cars. At the time of the acct
dent Hall was coming from work and
was on his way to his home on Ever
green street. He found the crossing
at Strong street blocked by freight
train and in order to get across the
street he walked south along the tracks
Of the company and went around the
freight cars. He had managed to get
across both tracks, but could not get
back to the street before he was run
down and killed by fast train on the
east track. The conditions which re-
suited in the killing of Hall were very
similar to the conditions resulting in
the injury Of Nicholas Wade at the
Broad street crossing. Wade was fort
innate enough to get off with his life.
The suit is brought by Attorney w.
E. Kelley of Chicago, acting for the
administrator It has further inter
est on account Of the fact that the
demand for damages is $4,000. In this
state the amount Of damages to be paid
for the death of person by railway
accident is $4,000 and this is the first
time that larger sum has been de-
manded in a similar suit.
The case is noticed for trial at the
present term of the Circuit Court.

ADJUST FREIGHT RATES
Shippers of Middle West Want
Disparity Of Rates to the
South Removed
MANY SHIPPERS COMPLAIN

In the interest Of the jobbers and
merchants of large cities in the central
west, as well as of the railroads, efforts
are now being exerted to bring about
a meeting between the traffic officials
Of the southwestern railroads and Of
the steamship lines plying between New
York and Texas ports with view to
removing the disparity between water
and the allrail rates via Chicago.
The present situation was brought
about by a rate war between the steam
ship lines and railroads which started
last summer. The result has been to
divert traffic formerly passing through
Chicago, st. Louis and Kansas City to
the water lines from New York, and
Chicago merchants have complained
bitterly at the consequent loss Of bust
ness to them.
The matter of the increase in rates
made by the railroads is now pending
before the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, but decision will not be
forthcoming until some time this sum
mer. In the meantime the shippers
and railroads are interested in seeing
what can be done with the water car
riers. The former say they cannot get
their share of the business at any rate
as long as the present state Of competi
ton among the steamship lines exists.
This was started by the advent of an
independent line, the Texas Steamship
Company, which made such low rates
from New York to Texas that the other
lines were forced to cut rates also in
order to get traffic. AS the Interstate
Commerce Commission has no jurisdic-
ton over purely water traffic, rates
have been made "over night in some
cases as low as 5 or 10 cents hundred
pounds The first class rate from New
York to Galveston is $1.1O. This is
81 cents lower than the New York
Kansas City rate and about 70 cents
lower than the present New York Okla
homa City rate.
What is known in tariff circles as
seaboard'' territory, that east of the
Buffalo-Pittsburg line has long been
conceded to the water lines as their
legitimate field, but under the present
system of rates it has been possible to
haul freight long distances to New York
by rail and thence by water to Texas
at large saving under the rail rate
through Chicago. This the Chicago
shipper naturally thinks is an unwar-
rantable invasion Of his territory.
It is proposed to hold a meeting of
the railroad and steamship officials in
New York in the near future, unless the
situation can be amicably adjusted, at
which time the railroad officials will
try to induce the water lines to stop
cutting rates.

RAvINIA PARK TO BE OPENED
Interest Already Manifested Guarantees
Continuance Of Resort

It has been learned that Ravinia
park will be operated this year on the
same plan that it was in 1908, provided
subscriptions enough are made to war
rant continuing the high class produc-
tions Of previous years.
George M. Seward Of Highland Park,
who was appointed receiver of Ravinia
park by Judge Peter S. Grosscup, said
that he had been authorized to open
the park on June 20 if $4,000 could
be raised by subscription for tickets
before that date.
"Until last year. he said, "the
proposition had been losing money
steadily, but by having residents Of the
north shore subscribe for tickets we
raised a sufficient sum to keep the park
open and at the end of the season we
had cleared little money. This is the
only practical plan on which to conduct
Ravinia park with its present attrac-
tions and though we have had numerous
opportunities to rent the park to amuse-
ment companies, the interest already
manifested in it this year guarantees
it's continuance in the spirit Of former
years.
eve will have the New York
Symphony orchestra with Walter Dam
rosch for an engagement Of several
weeks, also the Theodore Thomas or
chestra with Frederick Stock and the
Ben Greet players for several produc-
tions.''

DIED AT RICHMOND
Mrs. Sally G.. Getting Died at the
Age Of 1O3 Years

Mrs. Sally G. Getting, who died re-
Gently at Richmond, ILL.,, was 1O3 years
of age and could remember the admin
istrations of all the presidents but
those Of Geo. Washington and John
Adams. She was born at Milton, VT,
and her parental name was Dixie. They
moved to Richmond, VT, where she
married G. G. Getting.
Their first seven years of married life
were spent in Vermont, and they moved
west in 1886. They lived a time in
the town of Bristol and moved to Rich
mond, Ill, in 1914, where he helped to
build the mill, portion of which is
still in existence. Mr.. Getting also
suggested the name Richmond, after
the home town in Vermont. At the
time they took up residence there, there
were only two log cabins in Richmond.
The Richmond Gazette says: When
Mrs. Getting and her husband settled
here this section was inhabited mostly
by Indians. The entire country was a
wilderness for this was before the gov
eminent had surveyed it's land. She
lived in Richmond nearly IS years and
over so years in the same house. Her
husband lived to celebrate their golden
wedding. Of two sons and three
daughters only one son, Spencer Cot
ting, is living, aged 81. Grandchildren
are John, Charles and Jennie. Sibley, Of
Chicago; Charles Bennett, of Elgin and
Cora Getting Stewart, Of Richmond.
Mrs. Getting was widely known
among the people of Kenosha county.

Candidates for County Judge and
County Superintendent Must
File Before March rs
C JUNTY TO HEAR ORAT0RY
Candidates for County Superintendent
as Well as Judge Promise to Make
Vigorous Campaign Dur
ing Next Month

CanQlQaJ6S LOT Jno once OF county
judge and county superintendent of
schools will file their petitions with
County Clerk Jones the first of next
week as the clerk announced this morn
ing that under the law he would hold
shat Marcn Goth, was the last day for
fling these petitions. All Of the can
didates now in the field state that they
are ready to file their petitions and
all Of them will make great show
of strength in the petitions. Judge
Slosson, who is candidate to succeed
himself as county judge, closed up his
petitions some time ago and prepared
them for fling, but since that time
several other petitions have come in.
Attorney Taylor has petitions from
every town in the county and they are
in readiness for the county clerk to
officially record. Of course there is yet
time for other candidates to come into
the field for the office of county Judge
but such candidates are not expected
Several men had been mentioned in
connection with the Office, but Judge
Slosson and Attorney Taylor have made
such vigorous campaign already that
it is not thought possible that any
other candidates will enter the field
at this late date.
The race for county superintendent
is evidently two-handed game be-
tween John j. Kerwin and Otto L.
Dreys. Both Of these men have their
petitions ready for filing and, while
neither has filed, Dreys is making a
rather spectacular campaign throughout
the county. The Bristol man opened
his campaign at Brighton last Saturday
night and for the first time in many
years speaking campaign for the Of
fee Of county superintendent is on in
the county. Dreys has some note as
platform orator and it is said that he
has arranged to speak in every town
Of the county between now and election
day. County Superintendent Kerwin
has declined to take the stump and is
referring to his record as county super
IHtCuO0HG DIS Ills UCOt IcCOIumOuudGIOu
for election. Both of the candidates
have long petitions for nomination for
the Office and the campaign promises
to be about as warm campaign for
county superintendent as has ever
been seen in the county. The voters
of the city do not vote for county SUI
perintendent and for this reason the
candidates have done little or no work
in the city.
There seems to be personal element
in the campaign between Mr.. Kerwin
and Mr.. Dreys and this will add zest if
not interest to the pursuit for votes
in the county.
John Barnes of Rhinelander yester-
day fled with the secretary of state
his petitions as candidate to succeed
himself as justice. Of the Supreme
Court. The petition contained more
than five thousand names and one of
the longest lists filed was from Keno
sha county. The papers were signed
by nearly every attorney in Kenosha
and Racine counties and it is certain
that Judge Barnes has the hearty sup
port of the bar in his campaign for re-
election. It now seems certain that
there will be no opposition to Judge
Barnes.

County Clerk Jones Argues Before
Committee in Favor of Amend
ing inheritance Tax Law
COUNTY WOULD BE BENEFITED
Amount Paid to This County if Equit-
ably Divided Between State
and County Would Cause
Reduction in Taxes

County Clerk Russell III. Jones, APP
peared before the judiciary committee
of the Wisconsin assembly at Madison
on Thursday afternoon and registered
an objection from Kenosha county
against the present law in regard to
the division of inheritance taxes
Clerk Jones appeared together with
representatives of other counties in the
state who were in favor of passing the
proposed amendment to the inheritance
tax law. The amendment that is be-
ing considered will provide that fifty
per cent of the inheritance taxes col
lected in the various counties of the
state be paid to the counties and like
amount to the state. Many of the
counties of the state employed attor
neys to appear before the committee
and argue in favor of the amendment,
but Kenosha county made no provision
for such argument and Clerk Jones be-
ing in Madison on official business, gave
his services free to the county. He
made an excellent argument in favor
of the amendment and showed that
the wishes Of Kenosha county should
receive weight in the consideration on
account of the large amount of in
heritance taxes collected in this county.
Few counties in the state and by some
it is declared that no county except
Milwaukee county has paid SO much
into the state treasury in the way of
inheritance taxes as Kenosha county.
In the past three or four years it is
estimated that this county has paid to
the state treasurer more than $225,000
and had this tax been equally divided
between the state and the county, Ke-
nosha county would not now be forced
to make special levy in order to pro-
vide money for the building of a county
Jail. Waukesha county which paid less
than $4,000 in inheritance taxes in
the same time mad paid attorneys to
appear before the committee on Thurs
day The hearing on the amendment
will be resumed before a joint commit
tee of the assembly and the senate on
next Tuesday afternoon and by that
time the Kenosha Board may order
some one to appear with County Clerk
Jones to present the claims of this
county.
Under the present law the county re-
ceives but five per cent Of the inheri
lance tax collected, and in some coun-
ties the tax is collected for the state
at positive loss. Kenosha county
has been fortunate in that there has
never been a fight over the collection
of the inheritance tax, but should there
be big fight along this line the county
would be forced to defend the state
in the collection Of the tax even if
prolonged fight cost the county more
than the amount of the tax received
by it.
Petitions have been sent to the legis-
lature from nearly every county in the
state demanding the passage Of the
amendment to the law and it
is thought that these petitions will car
ry great weight. It is expected that
the law will be reported to both houses
of the state legislature the latter part
of next week.
