A New City Hall.

The activity along Municipal Court
lines has brought home to members Of
the City Council the fact that in the
near future the Council will be con-
fronted with the proposition Of finding
a place for housing the offices of the
city. The enactment of Municipal
Court bill will make it necessary for
the County Board to cancel the lease
of the old county building at the end
of its term and the city will be left
without a place for it's offices. This
lease will expire in less than year
and the problem Of a new City Hall
will be one Of the problems that must
be met by the Council to be elected
at the approaching election. The City
Hall is not new demand for Kenosha.
Ever since the city put aside the swad-
ding clothes of village she has seen
the demand for such building and
now that this demand is to be forced
home by the action of the County
Board the Council must make arrange
ments to meet it and meet it in
proper mduHGI. l. uO City udo ~ LulNo
on hand to provide for the erection of
a city hall suitable to the demands Of
Kenosha, but it will be up to the
finance committee of the incoming
Council to find some way to raise this
fund. 1t is possible that way can be
found to spread the expense of the
new building over a term of years and
yet permit immediate building. The
Council should take up this matter at
the earliest possible minute and, with
the idea Of building a City Hall suita-
BILE for a great and growing city, Sc
cure plans and specifications now and
get all things in readiness for build
ing just as soon as the money needed
can be secured 1t will undoubtedly
be necessary for the city to secure
some sort of make shift Offices for a
year or so, but the Council should ar
range that permanent City Hall be
provided at the earliest possible minute.
The site for the building is already
secured and the building should be one
which will be in keeping with its sur.
roundings.

Gloves and Stockings.

Marshall Field & Co., of Chicago,
have issued a pamphlet explaining the
changes in the proposed tariff law now
before Congress as regards the much
talked of gloves and stockings. We
give below two pertinent clauses taken
from the pamphlet:
GA group of hosiery manufacturers
have received 20 per cent increase
over the prevailing so per cent rate,
making total of 80 per cent against
foreign goods. This would exclude all
foreign 25c hosiery, and would enable
domestic manufacturers to raise their
prices proportionately. At 35c and
SOC the public would have the option
of accepting an inferior foreign ar
ticle to that sold heretofore, or buying
a domestic substitute which is less de-
sirable.' -
"Under the present act gloves not
over fourteen inches are taxed accord
ing to length, in Schmashen $1.75 to
$2.75 per dozen, in Lamb Suede $3.50
to $3.50 per dozen, in Lamb Glaze
$3.50 to $3.50 per dozen, and in Kid
$500 to $4.75 per dozen, while under
the new act the rates are uniform on
gloves of all kinds of leather, ranging
from $500 to $3.50 per dozen, accord
ing to length. Manifestly these rates
are prohibitive and intended to be
so.''

The prominent place that typhoid
statistics play in every report of our
health department shows that the peo-
pie in general have no knowledge of
the causes and sources Of that dread
disease and accept rather as dis
pensation of providence an affection
that is primarily due to their own
thoughtlessness or the carelessness Of
others. A careful study of the follow
ing little lecture on the spread Of the
disease and strict attention to the sug-
gestions made would help greatly to
keep down the number of cases in the
city
tHTyphold, one Of the most loathsome
of the many diseases with which
human beings are afflicted, is spread
in many ways. 1t is essentially a
filth disease. The dalryman who sup
plies your milk may have an infected
well. His cans and bottles are wash
ed with the infected water and this
means that the milk will be infected.
A person sick with what is known as
walking typhoid may spread the infec-
ton broadcast A polluted water sup
ply is not infrequently the source of
a community epidemic of this disease.
Flies are recognized carriers because
of their habits and because of their
presence in the homes. And yet typ
hold is one Of the recognized prevent
able diseases. Destroy or abolish the
source of infection and the spread of
the disease is stopped at once. This
means that milk, water and food must
be kept untainted, and the dangerous
little house fly must be kept out of
all places of human habitation.
And remember that every death
from typhoid is due to some one s care
lessness that, in this day of intelligent
sanitary administration, is little short
of criminal. -

SENT TO WAUKEsHA
Boys Charged With Many Thefts Sent
to the State Reform School

John Muto, aged IA years; James
Bloom, aged -; an Axel Bloom, aged
9 years, were this morning taken to
the State Reform School at Waukesha
to remain until they shall attain their
majority The three boys were ar
rested several days ago on charges of
robbing several of the stores of the
city. The booty secured by the boys
was Of little value, but they showed
that the criminal instinct was being
developed at such an alarming rate
that the district attorney thought that
the boys should be placed in a school
where they would have a chance to
reform. The police have been asked
to look after these same boys on form
er occasions and their parents seem
to be helpless in taking care of them.

JOHN c. SLATER
Candidate for Municipal Judge Sets
Qualifications Before Voters

John G.. Slater, non partisan candi-
date for municipal Judge of Kenosha
county, has resided in the city and
county of Kenosna for 43 years. After
many years service in the employ of
the late Edward Balm and Whitaker
Engine and Skein Company as a
molder, he was elected justice of the
peace in 1887, in the face of the strong
est opposition. He at once applied
himself to the study of the law and,
after seven years of Industrious and
constant study, successfully passed
the Wisconsin State Bar examination
and was admitted to practice in the
Circuit Court Of Kenosha county His
judicial abilities were recognized by
the people and his administration Of
the duties of justice of the peace was
so satisfactory that at the expiration
Of his term and of several succeeding
terms, he. received the nomination in
the conventions of both the Repnbli-
can and Democratic parties until by
the act of the legislature a candidate
was not permitted to accept a. nomina
tion on but one ticket. Since retiring
from the office of justice of the peace,
he has constantly, continuously and
actively practiced his profession in all
the courts and is regarded as one of
the leaders of the Kenosha County
Bar. During the past twenty years
he has been prominently identified
with all questions affecting the inter
ests of the public. He is pre-eminent
ly qualified by training and experience
to preside over the newly created
court; is familiar with every detail in
the operation Of the court; of judi
cial temperament and mind, pro-
found student, just but fearless judi
cial officer, he stands alone of all the
candidates as the one man qualified
for the important and responsible posi-
ton of Municipal Judge. adv.

JOKE ON FARMERS
Residents of Rural Districts Not
Entirely Satisfied With Laws
Proposed at Madison
LOOK INTO TUBERCUlIN TEST

Is the joke on the farmers? 1t APP
pears so. Protests are coming in by
the. yard against the passage of bills
already introduced which have as their
object more stringent disastrous
to farmers financial interests regard
ing the tuberculin test for COWS.
Farmers throughout the state be-
came aware of the bills when they
were first introduced. One of them
was by Assemblyman Otto Onstad of
Dane county. This bill provided for
the compulsory testing of all cattle in
Wisconsin, a Herculean task. The pay
ment for The cattle found infected and
slaughtered was to be about the same
as under The present law. Under the
present law it is optional with the
farmer owner whether his cattle shall
be tested. Il
When cattle are found to be infected
with@tu tuberculosis their value is APP
praised 85y5a local Board and the state
pays the farmer a fraction of what
they are worth. The state pays 66
per cent. of the value of each slaught-
cred cow, but in no case will it accept
a valuation of more than $50 a head.
Therefore, if Farmer Brown has a $3.50
milch COW tested and it is found to be
infected, he gets 1888 from the state
on a valuation of $50. This makes
Farmer Brown mad. There are many
Farmer Browns and they have risen
up in indignation over the bill that
makes it compulsory that all cows
shall be examined and the infected
ones slaughtered.
Now it comes about that all the
protesting and petitioning of the legis
lature is useless and this is where the
joke is on the farmer. Here is the
truth The Onstad and other bills of
the same purport were killed last
week. They were recommended for
death by the assembly committee on
agriculture and the assembly dealt the
blow.
Under present plans the committee
on agriculture will report bill of it's
own making regarding the tuberculin
test by the state sanitary and live
stock board This bill will provide not
for optional or compulsory tests, but
for tests in all cases where cattle are
offered for sale or change hands. If
Farmer Brown decides to sell his Jer-
sey herd he must have each head ex-
amined and tested. If they prove
healthy the sale goes through. IF they
don t, then he must submit to a. de
cree of death for the infected Jerseys
and accept the pittance paid by the
state for diseased cattle.
ct believe that such a bill will
meet with the approval of farmers
throughout the state" said Assembly
man Axel Johnson of Turtle Lake,
who is a member OF the committee on
agriculture eff this law were to be
enforced we would soon see an end
to tuberculosis among cattle. -

OBJECTS TO CIRCULAR
Co. Superintendent Kerwin Criticises
Campaign Methods of Opponent

To the People Of Kenosha County:
My attention has been called to a
hbelous circular gotten out by Mr..
Dreys. This circular is false and
imaginary and misleading if not care
fully read
1t is tumble of words containing
but one charge, that of professional
jealousy. He makes such feeble at
tempt to show this that it is
unworthy of notice He was invited
to refer all disputes concerning his di-
ploma examination to the state super
intendent, but he refused to do so,
which shows that he was not looking
for justice, but for trouble
He appeals to your imagination for
what was said to him as he was leaving
the county superintendent S Office
You might imagine any one Of one
hundred things, but what was said to
him in the presence of witness, was
this: Sit down awhile, Mr.. Dreys. Do
not be in hurry Such methods
as he has employed to win an office
may be the proper thing in Michigan,
but I do not think the people of Ke-
nosha county will place their seal of
approval upon them. For anything
else he has said or may say, refer you
to my record of work in the office of
county superintendent.
Respectfully yours,

WaatTo cetPoIiticaI Committees
together To Put Life Into
the City Campaign
MUST GET NEW CHAIRMAN
Republicans Have One Place to Fill on
City Ticket and Candidates
Of Both Parties Want Aid
in the City

Strenuous efforts are being made to-
Republican and Democratic city COM
mittees to take charge of the present
city campaign as both of the parties
feel badly the need of organization
1t is necessary that the Republican
committee meet and elect a chairman
as at the present time the Republicans
have no candidate for the office of
the justice of the peace. This place
on the ticket must be filed before to-
morrow afternoon as City Clerk Har
rington is now placing the ballots in
the hands Of the printers and if the
Republicans are to have a candidate
for justice the committee must act be-
fore the ballots are printed. Edward
G. Alleman, the chairman Of the Re
publican City Committee, is now out
Of the city, but a meeting of the com
mittee is being called for this evening
at which timeF it is expected that
a new city chairman will be elected
to serve until new committee
may be named by the voters at
the primary election. This will be
an important committee as it will have
charge of the general clty elect1on to
be held next year at which time a
mayor will be selected.
The Republican committee is COM
posed of the following members: E. F.
Markham, r. V. Baker, frank S. Sym
monds, 0. A. McNiel, NJ T. Barber,
Herman Behnke, John Zens and Au-
gust Otto Under the law it is the
duty of these members of the com
mittee to meet before the election and
name a chairman to have charge Of
the campaign.
The members of the Democratic city
committee are James H. O'Brien, John
Mcconnell, Joseph H. Tully, James Fl.
Karnes, Harry okinkle, NJ j. Scholey,
Joseph .Widmann, n. J. Werner and
D.. Harry Smith. The Democratic city
committee has never held netting
and it is therefore without officials.
Thus far the city campaign has been
entirely one of personal effort on the
part of the candidates of the two old
parties and the Social Democrats are
the only candidates with working
organization behind them. It is high
| ly necessary that the committees be
organized at once in order to provide
for the workers at the polls. The in
dividual candidates have no power to
name such workers.
Fred W. Reinold is being suggested
as the Republican candidate for JUS
tice of the peace and he is willing to
make the run for the office if he is
certified by the committee as the can
didate of the party
