all the recommendations made ny fresloeht
Taft in his forthcoming message
Democratic leaders now in washington
who credit themselves with political aStute-
ness are pointing TO the fact that no party
rejected by the voters has been able TO
accomplish anything in the way OF legisia-
ton at the short session. They assert that
the coming session will devote its attention
70 the great supply bills and attempt little
else Apparentlv they mistake the temper
of the Republicans elected and defeated,
for every member of the majority VINO has
reached Washington thus far has expressed
his determination TO push every question
suggested by President Taft to vote Tne
Republicans are united in the opinion that
the splendid legislative record Of the 61st
Congress- rnust be rounded out by further
activity. The most gratifying evidence OF
-his determination comes from the insur-
gents who seem more than willing TO lend
their assistance
4 new phase of the Democratic rules
difficulty has been uncovered by Repre-
sentative Hubbard. Of Iowa, one OF the
most radical of the insurgents. He is bent
on having that question settled at the short
session. He favors q committee on com
rnittees. and, as such a committee could
not affect the preeent Congress, it is under
stood that the regular Republicans will not
oppose the plan. In this way the Demo
Gratis will now be forced TO show their hands
and TO accept a committee on committees
even though It is not favored by their most
sagacious leaders.

henosha county is to have it's first
representative at the White House on

now famous COW presented by Senator
Isaac Stephenson to President Taft left
Kenosha this afternoon on the 2:34

IN state. She was comfortably housed
in a special car of the American Elk
press company and seemed to appre-
ciate that she was to be the first cow
in the nation before the end Of another
day. Pauline carried with her a pedi-
gree as long as the moral law and she
was in her best bib and tucker. James
P. Torrey the Manager of the Stephen.
sen farm accompanied Pauline taking
with him just the right kind Of food to
tempt her palate on the trip and she
will not be at the mercy of the Pullman
dining cars enroute. Pauline will reach
Washington at seven 'clock Wednes-
day evening and will be taken to the
White House by Mr.. Torrey who is an
eighth cousin of the President. Mr..
Torrey will be the guest of President
Taft at the White House on Wednes-
day evening after the presentation of
the cow and Pauline herself will be
given the place of honor in the White
House stables.

lmblers Alleged to Have
Scored Heavily in Bump"
Games ON N. w. Trains
OFFICIALS MAY ORDER ARRESTS

Gambling on Chicago and North
Western trains continues to flourish
and SO far as known no arrests have
been made despite the frequent as
sertions Of, the Runway officials that
the practice is to be stopped Wheth-
er or not the company is sincere in
these declarations is not known but it
is fact that there are few trains that
ply between Chicago and Kenosha on
which gambling Of one sort or another
does not exist.
This condition Of affairs is Of more
than ordinary interest because of the
statements that have been made that
professional gamblers from Chicago ply
their trade on these trains and reap a
rich harvest from the uninitiated. Ken
osha men are said to have lost consider
able money to these card sharpers. It
has come to such a pass that Kenosha
men who like friendly game Of cards
where no stakes are played for steer
clear of strangers and possible sharpers
by refusing to play for money and by
choosing the men with whom they play
from among their friends only.
There was time when pitch was
the only game played on trains but of
late poker of some kind or another has
become very popular with some of the
men who patronize the company. To
avoid detection and possible arrest the
game is so disguised that it would be
difficult to detect it except upon close
observation.
For instance--Instead of dealing out
all the cards as in game Of straight
or draw poker a game that is closely
akin to stud poker is played. The men
make verbal bots which are written
down on a slip of paper. Then the man
who wins the hand collects the money
from the men who uId the betting. This
prevents a display of money on the
board. High stakes are played in many
of the games.
Y list ana even hearts are played for
money by many of those who play on
the trains. In these games as in poker
the bets are marked down on piece of
parcr and the money is not turned over
until the end of the game. hsx
