Kenosha Electric Railway Co. Will
Be Ready To Light Streets
Of City 10 a Fortnight
STREET LIGHTS TO BE HUNG.
Company Will Plan to Adjust the Poles
in Keeping With the Wishes of
the Property Owners en-
Different Streets

The Kenosha Electric Railway Com
pany is putting the finishing touches
on the electric nghting system to be
used in the lighting Of the streets of
the city after the goth of August.
One of The circuits is entirely complet-
ed and the lights will all be hung
before the close of the next week.
The contractors have announced that
the lines ready for use will be turned
over to the company on Aug. 18th and
as they are to be given thorough test
before the contract goes into operation
it is probable that Kenosha will blaze
with light for the first few weeks in
August. The contract of the city
with the Kenosha Gas and Electric
Company does not expire until the mid
die of August and the new company
plans to take over the contract just
as soon as it expires. The lights for
the street circuit are all in the city
and the work of hanging them will
take but a few days.
The company has met with consid-
cradle opposition both on the part Of
the Kenosha Gas and Electric Com
parry and the Kenosha Home Telephone
Company and experts have been called
to Kenosha from Milwaul ee and other
cities to see that the new lines are
properly put up. 1t was expected that
when the contract was given to the
railway company that it would be able
to make some agreement with the Ke
nosha Gas and Electric Company for
the use of poles, but no such an agree
ment. could be reached and as a result
the city has an entire new set of poles
reaching to nearly every street in the
city. The setting Of this new system
Of poles has been fraught with a good
many complaints, but the managers of
the construction crew claim that be-
fore the lines are turned over to the
company most of these complaints will
be taken care of and the poles set as
nearly as possible in keeping with the
wishes Of the property owners. The
power plant which is in connection
with the plant of the Simmons Manu-
featuring Company is now all ready
for the turning on of the current. The
most modern machinery known to street
lighting has been installed. The com
panv will secure it's power from the
Simmons Company.
Thus far the Kenosha Gas and Elec-
trio Company has not been able TO
stop the progress Of the building of
the lines, but it is thought that there
may be something along the injunction
line when the company seeks to take
over the contract. The case in court
has not yet been called for hearing
and it does not appear that anything
is being done to bring the matter be-
fore the court for an immediate hear
ing.

Chicago Man Comes to kenosha
With View Of Locating Big Car
Wheel Making Plant Here
PROPOSITION NOT PUBLIC
Company is Incorporated With Capt.
tai Stock of $1O,00O,00o and
Promises to Have Plants
in Many States

Hon. John Shirley of Chicago, form
erly connected with the consular
service of the United States govern
ment and at present the president of
the Illinois Steel, Solid Forged Car
Wheel Company was in Kenosha on
Friday looking over this city with a
view Of locating plant of the com
pany in Kenosha. The company is a
corporation organized under the laws
iof South Dakota with a capital stock
of $10,000000 to manufacture the solid
steel forged car wheel 1t is claimed
that the reason of the high capitaliza-
tlon Of the company is the fact that
it plans to manufacture extensively in
the United States and Canada and ex-
poets to handle many plants. The di-
rectors Of the company are John H.
Shirley, George S. Thomas of Chicago;
James A. Facer and Horace F. Mccain
of Philadelphia and Charles A. Ress
of New York. Among the references
furnished by the company are former
Senator William E. Mason of Illinois
and John H. Cameron, formerly vice
president of the Hamilton Bank in
Chicago The company plans the cree
ton Of a plant which will cost $4,000
and the plant will have a capacity of
800 wheels day, employing from 100
to $50 men all skilled. It is claimed
that this plant will be largely for ex-
detrimental purposes, but that it will
form the nucleus for the parent plant
of the company,
The company has tentative contracts
for the sale of the product of such a
plant to a number of the big railway
systems including the Illinois Central
and the Hartman systems These
companies have carefully Investigated
the patent owned by the company and
claim that the manufacture of the new
wheels will mean much to the railway
systems of the world
President Shirley spent only a few
hours in Kenosha, but will return to
this city later to take the matter up
with the financial men Of Kenosha.
His proposition for the location of the
plant has not been made public. The
financial backing of the company is
not known in Kenosha, but it is said
that the company is not seeking any
thing in the way of bonus, but must
have plant in close proximity Of Chi
cago. The matter is being taken up
by number of real estate men in, the
city who are anxious to locate the
plant here and there is no doubt but
that the company could get reasonable
concessions in regard to a site if it
decides to locate here Kenosha is
an ideal location for such a plant and
there is plenty of available property
within easy reaching distance Of the
railway.

Prosperity is coming, but it will not
be the old prosperity. We refer not
to its outward form or bulk or dura-
ton, but to its spirit. The enlarged
business which is before us, the new
displays of energy, the further growth
and achievements of capital fruitfully
employed in corporations and other
wise, viii be marked by other methods
We shall not easily drop back into
the old style of conducting the great
business of the country. It is neces-
sary and timely TO dwell upon this, be-
cause many have been persuading
themselves that the excitements, the
reforms, the painful inches Of progress
gained in the last few years, were all
to go for nothing and that we should
settle back with swinish complaeency
into the mire where we formerly wal

FOR A FOURTH TERM
Governor Davidson Being Urged
by His Friends To Be a Candi.
date for denomination
HICKS ACTIONS A PROBLEM

Tt now seems evident that Governor
James O.. Davidson will be asked to
be candidate for the office of COVER
nor of the state for a fourth term. and
today several of the well known Re
publican politicians of Kenosha have
received letters which are in the nature
of feelers' as to the candidacy of
the governor for reelection. 1t is
claimed that, the movement for the re-
nomination of Governor Davidson is
purely movement among his friends
and that, he has not even. given his
consent to their urging his candidacy.
The services of the governor to the
state have been worthy of every con
sideration- on the part Of the voters,
but he will not come into the field for
the unusual honor of fourth term as
governor unless it is apparent that his
candidacy is backed by the great mass
of. Republicans of the, state. 1t is
claimed by his friends that the recent
work of the legislature makes 1t neces-
sary. for Governor Davidson to seek a
fourth term in order that he may be
permitted to complete his work, There
is no doubt but that Governor David
son would like to be candidate for
United States senator, but as LaFol-
lette is to be candidate to succeed
himself it is probable that the COVER
nor would be unwilling to enter the
race against him.
Col John Hicks of Oshkosh is bob
bling up as possibility in Wisconsin
politics and recently he published an
open letter in which he declared that
he was not allied with either of the
political factions in the state Shrewd
politicians declare that this is the
opening wedge of Col. Hicks for a
candidacy, but they rein doubt as to
whether he will seek the Office OF
- uIGGu 6bdI6S SSlldIOTH or SONeI1OT. lie
has just returned to his home after
serving as consul in one of the South
American countries and he is credited
with having strong administration sup
port. It is just possible that tho poll
ties of the state will be lined up in
such a way as to- make Col. Hicks a
candidate for the senator with the
understanding that his support will go
to Governor Davidson for a fourth terra
as governor. This. would make a
strong political alignment and it is
not beyond the bounds of possibilities
that something of the kind may be at
tempted. s
Interesting developments are prom
ised within the next few. weeks for
while the primary election does not
take place for year it is understood
that the candidates will be III the field
before the opening of the new year.

cupation the yellow fever was praeti-

was clearly shown that the revenues

necessary funds for the proper

the Cubans are drifting back to their

the minds of many people the pre-

WILL HELP INDIANS
Commissioner to Give Wisconsin In
dams Ruined by Floods Aid


dians Ruined by Floods Aid
Ruthlessly brushing aside govern
mental "red tape" in the interest of
suffering humanity, Commissioner of
Indian Affairs Valentine Friday took
quick and decisive steps to relieve
more than 1900 Indians in Wisconsin
who were left without shelter and food
as the result of the recent series of
cloudbursts in this state.
Realizing that the situation demand
cd immediate action and without any
specific appropriation for that purpose,
although confident that his action
would be upheld, MrH Valentine upon
the alarming reports from Superinten-
dent Campbell of the La Pointe Indian
agency in Wisconsin autographed the
latter to take every possible means to
relieve the destitute Indians and check
any possible spread of disease conse-
quent upon the floods.
According to the report of Mr.. Camp
bell, the Bad Indian reservation suf-
fered most from the cloudbursts. The
Indian village of Ooanah also suffered
heavily. When a dam gave way sew
eral miles above the town, the water
and debris poured down upon the In
dian settlement, sweeping away several
houses and overturning others. All
household goods were either destroyed
or rendered unserviceable. Many In
ian families lost all their possessions
and have temporarily been deprived of
means of earning living.
