The house passed the bill for the
abolition of the pension agencies and
the Capitalization of the department
business at Washington by heavy
majority but the senate may be ex-
pected to give the matter more prayer
full consideration. There are eighteen
of these agencies and the agents are
named by the senators and the pros
pect of giving up all this patronage
may well give any senator pause.

The members of the Commission APP
appointed by the Council to draw up
a building ordinance are all experts
in their several lines and they should
be able to produce just about the kind
Of an ordinance that the city needs. AS
a matter Of fact the aldermen or most
of them would have to go to these men
or others in the same lines for assistance
and advice in framing any kind of a
building ordinance and it looks like a
first class idea to have them do the work
at first hand. The members Of the
Commission will undoubtedly consult
with the men in the same lines as them
selves and modify the provisions of
the ordinance to meet all criticisms re-
ceived so that the ordinance as finally
presented for the consideration of the
Council will embody the best thought
of the very men who will be most aft
fected by it. An ordinance drawn in
this way is likely to be much more
satisfactory all around~ than any that
could be drawn by members Of the
Council.

It is difficult to see what the State
Railroad Commission expects to gain
by postponing the hearing on the COM
plant on the rates charged by the Ke-
nosha Gas company until it is ready
to hear the same complaint against the
Racine company, but the Commission
knows it's own business best and there
is nothing for the Kenosha people in
terested in the matter to do but wait.
The probabilities are that the Commits
sion will be very sure Of its ground be-
fore it goes ahead with the hearing of
any complaint on gas rates and estab-
fishes precedents that may be used by
all the cities in the state. The Com
mission has done wonderfully good
work so far and has proceeded so care
fully that it's rulings have been in
variably sustained by the courts and
the scope Of it's work is so wide and
its decisions affect such vast interests
that it's progress has necessarily seemed
slow to the people who are impatient
to have their cases brought to a hear
ing.

1t is understood and expected that
the consumer is going to pay more for
his milk when all these sanitary regu-
lations for the milk supply are put in
force. The consumer always pays.
That goes without saying. And mas
much as all these regulations are put
in force for his benefit he should be
willing to pay their actual cost and
no more. That being the case his
principal concern for the future should
be to see that he gets what he pays for
At the same time he can sympathize
with the dairyman in his efforts to pro
tect himself and get the extra pay fol-
the extra work and expense he is put
to under the new regulations. What
the consumer objects to is paying
tWice-both to the dealer and the
farmer-for the same thing.

Should the anti-saloon league decide
to make this city it's next battle
ground the saloon men will have no
body to blame but themselves. In
that event the sins of the few will be
visited on the heads Of the many and
the law abiding saloon men will be
forced to side with the law breakers
to save themselves. Less than
quarter Of the saloons are habitual law
breakers.

There are men in this city who claim
right now before the plans are finished
that they can tell, absolutely, who is
going to get the heating contract for
that new school building and every
other contract. We hope that they are
mistaken, but we are very much afraid
that they know what they are talking
about.

who stands up for his opinions even
though we may believe him to be in the
wrong, but the official who lodges an
issue by refusing to go on record gets
no respect from either side and fools

MUST KEEP HARBOR OPEN
Fish Tug Owners Complain Harbor is
Blocked by Boats and Gang Planks

Complaints were made to the collec-
tor of the port this morning on account
Of the fact that big boats in the Keno
sha harbor are blocking the harbor and
the harbor master has been notified by
the collector to relieve the trouble at
once. 1t is claimed that gang planks
have been nailed on the big boats now
in the harbor just west of the Main
street bridge in such a. manner as to
make bridge to the south side of the
docks and on account Of these planks
it is impossible for the fishing tugs to
get in and out without great deal of
trouble. The big steamers are both
owned by Cleveland company and
they have been tied up in the harbor
for more than year.

The only farmers institute to be held
in the county this winter was held at

of great value.
