It remains to be seen if the present incumbent of the mayoralty and the councilmen are truly desirous of look ing 10 the interests of our community and the citizens. or, do they intend tc be eats paw" for seheming poll. tieians? We have for some time needed municipal house cleaning in our town of Forrest City.
 It is now the spring time: the un- clean should not only be taken from the streets and alleys, but from the actions and dealings of those in au- thority. The good citizens of this town should arouse themselves and cooperate with those whom they have selected 10 lead, and be eager to strive for reliable government
 Honesty in all things. for honesty is the best policy enduring and clean, brings about reforms of purity and strength, firm and telling.

DUTCH GAP" CLOSED UP.
Judge Belden Files Formal Order Dis
missing Petition of Bristol Farmers

The official obituary Of the "Dutch
Gap'' was written this morning when
Judge Belden filed in the circuit court
formal order dismissing all action
in regard to the proposed ditch. At
the session of the court on Saturday
the court intimated that this step
would be taken but he consented to
hold the formal Judgment for few
days to permit attorneys for the orig
inal petitioners who remained true to
the ditch to make an argument. None
was made and the formal order re-
corded today closes the long fight I'm
der the order the petition for the CON
frmation of the report of the commits
sioners, is. denied, the petition for the
withdrawal of the names on the orig
inal petition is granted and all further
proceedings IL the case are discontin-
ued and dismissed. Under the order
of the court the costs in the action
are taxed to the withdrawing petition
ers in the usual legal manner.

NOT YET BOOKED FOR kENOSHA
Organizations Here Will Undoubtedly
Suggest to the Officials That the
Presentation of Pictures be Prohibi-
ted in This City.

Cities all over the country are now
prohibiting the display of the pictures
of the recent Reno battle and the first
films of the pictures will be sent out
from Chicago today. 1t is pretty GER
tain that the films will reach Kenosha
for one of the earlier displays Of them
and as yet no steps have been taken
in this city to stop the reproduction
of the fight by the moving picture ma
chimes. Church people in Kenosha are,
however, taking a great interest in the
matter and in few days commune
cation will be sent to the mayor and
the chief of police urging them to fol
low the lead of other cities in the state
and nation and prevent the display of
the. pictures. The movement for the
prohibition of the display Of the pict-
ures was started by the Christian En-
deavor Union of Wisconsin of which
the Rev. E. T. Farrill of this city is
the president. The first move was
made less than a week ago but the
movement started at Milwaukee has
been taken up by the national organ
ization of Christian Endeavor and
many other societies and as a result
of the crusade against the pictures
scores of cities have already taken
steps to stop the production of them.
The most notable addition to the list
came on Wednesday when Mayor Emil
Seidel of Milwaukee issued a formal
order placing the pictures under the
ban. Chicago has refused to prohibit.
the picture display. The letters to
mayors and other officials are being
sent out just as rapidly as possible
and it is certain that by the first of
this week every Christian Endeavor
society in the state will have been
urged to take action in the matter.
President Farrill of the state organiza.-
ton is not actively in charge of this
campaign it having been placed IN the
hands Of the secretary of the organiza-
ton by the recent state meeting in
Milwaukee. However, the movement
has the hearty support of the Christian
Endeayor organizations in Kenosha and
they will undoubtedly make strong
fight to prevent the showing of the
fight pictures here. AS yet it is de-
cIared That the pictures have not been
booked for a presentation in Kenosha.

tives, but Will Not Go to Rome.

Most Rev. Sebastian G. Messmer,

During Archbishop Messmer's alb
sence from the country Rt. Rev.Mgr. Jo-
seph Rainer, vicar general, will be the

THURSDAY, JULY Ia, 1910.

The contract for the new city hall
has beer awarded Including the resur-
facing of the Central engine house SO
as 20 make it conform to the general
appearance Of the new building and it
is expected that the people of the city
will have reason to be proud Of their
"ciyic centerN when this work IS
completed. The building is to be built
in eight months which will give the
city little leeway before the lease
on the present quarters occupied by the
citv clerk and council runs out. There
were only two bids for the contract
both from outside parties and the con
tract was awarded to the lowest by a
lmanimous vote Of the council SO that
all of the. aldermen must have been
satisfied that nothing could have been
gained by waiting and trying to secure
additional bidders. 1t is understood
that the building is to be completed IN
exact accordance with Uhe plans anu
specifications as accepted by the coun-
ell and that there are to be no extras.
Most Of the people of the city will
be disappointed that the contract for
new hall went to an outsider, They
would have preferred to have this
building, especially, built by local
contractor with Kenosha labor but not
Single Kenosha contractor sent in a
bid for the job. The local contractors
evidently have clearer understanding
Of what the successful bidder may be

they must be given credit for knowing

nation for Sheriff.

just one month remains In which
candidates may file petitions for nomi-
nation at the primary election to be
held on July 9Th and it is admitted
that the Republican politicians in the
county are getting little anxious
Tt is all on account Of the fact that
there have been no papers taken out
by men who will seek the nomination
for sheriff Without a contest for this
Office some of the other candidates see
grave dangers. Under the new law
candidate to get his name on the
ticket must have been nominated in a
primary in which at least twenty per
cent of the vote at the last presidential
election was cast There is no danger
for the Democrats in this county as
200 vot,s would insure the nomination
Of any candidate who might get ma
jorityf but Fthe Republicans must poll
at least 700 votes on primary day to
get the names of the successful candi-
dates on the Republican ticket. 1t is
reported that several of the Republic
ans in the county are counting on get
ting into the field as a candidate for
sheriff but as yet none of them has
made good.

HOW TO LIVE IN OPEN AIR
State Committee in Fight Against TIL
berculosis Sends Out Directions.

Directions for living and sleeping
in the open air. is the title of pam
phlet being sent out today by the Ma
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis to its local
representatives in all parts of the Uni
ted States.
The pamphlet is meant to be a
handbook of information for anybody
who desires to sleep out of doors in his
own home. It emphasizes the fact that
outdoor sleeping is as desirable for the
well as for sick. The booklet will be
sent free of charge to anyone applying
for it at the headquarters of the Ma
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis in New
York, or to the secretary of any local
or state anti-tuberculosis association.
Some of the subjects of which the
pamphlet treats are, how to take the
open-air treatment in tenement house;
how to build a small shack or cabin
on fiat roof in the city; how to make
one comfortable while sleeping out
doors either in hot or cold weather;
how to arrangea porch on country
house; and how to build cheap porch;
the construction of tents and tent
houses; the kinds of beds and bedding
to use in outdoor sleeping, and various
other topics The book is well illus
trated and attractively prepared.
The object of the book is to suggest
particularly to consumptives who can
not secure admission to a sanatorium
how they can be treated at home under
the direction of physician. In view
of the fact that there are less than
$4,000 hospital beds in the United
States for consumptives and fully 300,-
900 who should be in hospitals, the Ma
tional Association urges that more at
tention be paid to sleeping in properly
provided places at home, and that in
every case the best be made of the
patients environment.

Mayor to Seek a Way to Put
Hobos to Work in Keno
sha This Summer
ASKS RAILWAY COMPANY TO AID

Mayor Scholey is to have real test
Of his abilities as an executive as the
common council has referred to him
the complaints against the town being
overrun with tramps and hobos and
the mayor is expected to find some
plan to drive the wanderers out of the
city. The mayor has been called out
on several occasions to aid the police
in driving out these hobos and for this
reason he is seeking a permanent plan
to make Kenosha a place to be alb
horfed by the shifting population. He
has suggested that the hobos be forced
to work on streets with the street gang
and he declares that he will be able to
find some way to make it possible for
the city to put these men to work or
at least to scare them bad enough to
force them to give Kenosha a wide
berth. In the past the plan to have
the hobos work on the street has been
brought up many times and suggestions
have been made for the establishment
of municipal stone pile and the pass
ing Of an ordinance which would make
it possible to sentence the "bos'' to
work on the stone pile but it is claimed
that the state law as it now stands
would prevent such a course. The only
thing that can be done seems to be to
get new state law and the Kenosha
common council is ready to back any
member of the legislature who will pro-
pose this law. In the meantime the
mayor will seek some way out of the
difficulty without law. Chief O'Hare
declared this morning that he was
ready to order the hobos to work at
the drop of hat In the meantime
the Northwestern Railway company
will be asked to join with the city in
securing a police officer whose sole
duty will be driving these tramps out
of the city. They will not be handled
tenderly either and it is thought that
with couple of weeks of rough hand
ling the tramps will shun Kenosha en-
tirely.
