DIED IN DENVER
Mrs Frances Sophia Petit Wells Died
Suddenly in Denver

Papers received in Kenosha this
afternoon announce the sudden death
Of Mrs. Frances Sophia Petit Wells,
daughter Of the late Judge J. j.
Petit Of this city and the wife Of
Judge E. 7. Wells, formerly on the
Supreme Court bench in Colorado.
Mrs. Wells died at her apartments in
the Imperial Hotel in Denver on Tues
day evening. Judge Wells had left his
wife in the best of health to go to
his office and a few hours later she
was stricken with paralysis and
died without regaining consciousness.
Judge and Mrs. Wells were among the
most prominent people of Denver and
the death of the former Kenosha
woman caused a profound sensation.
Mrs. Wells was born in Pulaski, New
York, Aug. l, 1857. She came to Ke-
nosha when a child and was married
in this city She was sister of the
late James E. Petit who died in Chi
cago only few days ago. One daugh-
ter survives Mrs. Wells. No an
nouncement has been made Of the
funeral, but it is supposed that it will
be held in Denver.

Sheriff Gunter Gets Subpoena for
IN. H. Whitaker" To Appear
in Primary Election Probe
NOT FOUND IN KEN0SHA CO.
Managers of Other Campaigns Here
May be Called to Madison to
Testify During the Next
Few Days

Kenosha at last has a chance to
break into the notorious senatorial pri-
mary investigation at Madison and the
hard part about it all is that the
county is not able to make good. Since
Wednesday morning Sheriff Gunter has
been securing the county with a
subpoena from the Commission but the
man who promises to give the infor-
nation in regard to the senatorial cam
paign in Kenosha county can not be
located. In fact the name does not
appear in any Of the city or county
directories and he is not known along
the rural routes. The name in the
subpoena is "N HI. Whitaker There
are all sorts of Whitakers in the city,
but none Of them have been mixed up
in the political game. Sheriff Gunter,
however, is unwilling to have this
county lose chance to get in on the
invest cation and he is continuing the
search for his man. It has been sug-
gested that the Commission might be
looking for M. HI. Whitaker, the form
er head Of the State Barber Board, who
figured prominently in Kenosha on
former occasions, but he is now a resi-
dent of Milwaukee.
Fred Reinold was the manager of
the Stephenson campaign in Kenosha.
and there has never been question as
to his expense account. In fact the
most of the people Of the county be-
-lieve that Manager Reinold was decid-
edly modest in his charges for the
services lie rendered the Junior sena-
tor.
Mr.. Reinold has not been subpoenaed
before the Commission and his name
has never been mentioned in connec-
tion with it. It is claimed that the
western part Of this county was hand
led for Stephenson and his forces by
Charles French, the well known Lake
Geneva lawyer, who has been before
the Commission, but whose testimony
failed to reveal that there was any
tap leading from the Stephenson bar
rel to any part of Kenosha. county.
Louis F. Rahr had charge of the Cook
candidacy in Kenosha county and the
Hatton forces had no resident man
ager. The McGovern candidacy was
handled in this county by prominent
members of the Kenosha Lincoln Club
and these men all assert that they re-
ceived no money to even pay the ex-
penses of the campaign.
The Commission at Madison has de-
cided to go into the investigation Of
the campaigns of Cook, Hatton and
McGovern during the remaining days
of the investigation and it is possible
that even if Whitaker is not located
some Of the other Kenosha politicians
will be able to ring in on the probe.
The sheriff will be glad to get any
information that will aid him in serv-
ing the subpoena now in his hands, but
it is certain that the Whitaker named
if he is really Kenosha county man,
has never been very active in the
political life Of the county.

BUTTERINE FOR KENosHA

Housekeepers in Kenosha will be a
little shy as to whom they buy butter
from during the next week as it is
announced that the old crowd of men
who were selling butterine for but
ter in several cities along the Lake
Shore have laid plans to give Keno
sha another trial beginning with Mon
day of next week. Tt may be that
there will be a lot of good agents
about the city selling butter, but the
real careful housekeeper will look the
men up before they place any large
orders. A good rule to follow in this
as well as all other similar cases is
to patronize the local dealers. If the
local dealers fail to treat you right you
can get back at them, but it is al
ways hard to locate the agent who
makes one trip to Kenosha.

Tax Collector of Zion City Returns
Over $4,000 as Delinquent Tax

Friday the collector S books of Zion
City were returned to Treasurer Ames
of Lake county. The Zion book shows
that the delinquent tax this year is
considerably larger than last year, the
amount being $25,820; the amount
collected was $26.347. The. large de
inquent is said to be due to Voliva s
followers having followed his advice

cordingly, it is expected that many

in the treasurer's office within the
next few weeks.

BUYS INTEREST IN THEATRE

John Mcconnell, Jr., is now the sole
owner of the Grand Theatre on Mar
llet street as he closed a deal this
morning for the purchase Of the in
terest of William McDermott, who
had been his partner in the business.
Mcconnell took charge at once. The
business of the theatre will be con-
tinued as in the past. The theatre is
the youngest amusement place in the
city, but it has been a success and has
become very popular with the people
Of the city. Notwithstanding the fact
that the theatre was burned out with
in a few days after its opening the
results Of the fire were quickly remov-
ed and since that time it has been
doing profitable business.

Tariff Rates and Revenue.
The question of money to the
government has forced its way into
the tariff discussion. Originally the
idea OF tariff revision was to benefit
the whole country by removing in
equalities and in a few cases. perhaps,
removing hardships from industry.
But the treasury deficit could not be
ignored. and the conservatism of those
who insist that revenues must not be
clipped while the government is run
ming behind was natural.
It has been said that treasury re-
ceipts for several months past have
equaled the government expenses. Re-
CARELESS, then, of ary increase in GUS
toms revenue through revision upward
and possibly in spite of shrinkage
caused by revision downward the gov
ernment's revenue and expenditure
might adjust themselves. When indus
try thrives importations and customs
revenue increase. The public demands
a tariff which shall not hamper indus
try and a tax to meet government ex-
penses which shall be what it pre-
tends to be and fall on everybody
alike.
