HAD NARROW ESCAPE
Party of Kenosha Autoists Comes t.
Grief in Racine Tuesday

A party of Kenosha autoists who
passed through town Tuesday night
met with mishap on College avenue
near Sixteenth street, where they col
lided with catch-basin. They were
about to turn west on Sixteenth
street, when the chauffeur, in some
unaccountable manner, lost control of
his machine and ran onto the CURLING,
wrenching front tire from the wheel
and also injured his kneecap consid-
erably by coming in contact with the
front of the car. There were two
young ladies and two men in the car
and to say that they were scared would
be putting it mildly. Their cries when
the car swerved could be heard for
blocks. After delay of an hour the
party were able to proceed home

In the annual address of George G.

DEPUTIES ON GRILL
Game Warden Rickeman Will Dismiss
Those Guilty of Pernicious Activity


Past political activity, solicitation
or contribution to political campaign
funds "stuffing" Of expense claims
against the state, the devotion of state
paid time to political work and similar
conduct out of harmony with the let
ter or spirit Of Wisconsin civil service
law will be made the occasion for
separation of scores of deputy game
wardens from service. The state civil
service commission propounded a set
.of questions to the temporarily APP
pointed deputies, sixty in number,
which inquire most pointedly into past
conduct or the deputies with reference
to political work, solicitation and con
tributions to political campaign funds,
performances Of political and other
non-departmental work in time and at
the expense Of the state and upon the
answers to these questions depends the
continuance Of the deputies in the
service. This treatment will be APP,
piled to all of the 1907 men who have
been serving as deputy fish and game
wardens and who wish to continue to
draw per diem and expenses. Chief
G. A. Rickeman caused the matter to
be placed officially before Attorney
Generals Gilbert for opinion on the
question Of whether the civil service
commission was acting within it's pow
ers and whether deputy wardens could
be required to answer such questions.

City Council Has Been Asked To
Name q SeaIer of Weights
and Measures for City
PROVIDED FOR BY STATE LAW

The City Council has received a
petition demanding that sealer of
weights and measures be named by the
Council to inspect the scales used in
the various stores in the city and the
mayor has named comittee to look
into the matter and report to the Com
mon Council at its next regular meet
ing The job would undoubtedly be
a nice plum for some of the politicians
but it is not probable that the Council
will be permitted to hand out the
plum as the state law specifically pro
vides that the county treasurer shall
act in the capacity of sealer of weights
and measures. There have been sew
eral demands for city sealer in the
past few years, but as yet no action
has been taken by the treasurer to per
form this work. Under the law the
fee that may be charged by the treas
rrer to perform this worksgf YIN
urer is a very small one and it would
not make it worth his while to take
up this line OF work. 1t is just posi-
bic that the city could name a city
sealer and provide salary for him.
but under the state law the city would
have no right to collect fees for his
services.
1t is said that there have been a
number of complaints against unjust
scales in Kenosha, but most Of the
complaints are not aimed against men
in the regular mercantile business in
Kenosha, but men who peddle meats
and other food products about the city.
It is probable that County Treasurer
Marx would be willing to do the work
if the county would provide for a
standard set of weights and measures,
but as this standard costs more than
hundred dollars it is not thought that
the frugal notions Of the County
Board will permit the purchase.

The latest returns from the Munich
pal Court indicate that there are MANY
foreigners in the city who have not
yet learned not to revert to their an
cestral habits of settling their differ
ences with knives. An effort should
be made to convince them that it is
not only safer, but better and cheaper
IN every way to adopt the American
method of fist fighting. 1t should be
pointed out to them gently but firmly
that no serious consequences are liable
to follow fist fight, but that resort
to knives is apt to be followed by a
murder trial. For the benefit of those
who are disposed to look with amused
tolerance upon the efforts of the
foreigners to exterminate each other SO
long as they confne themselves to their
own nationality it may be pointed out
that murder trials are expensive
