WIDELY KNOWN IN COUNTY
A. E. Buckmaster is Also Being
Groomed as a Candidate for a Seat
in the Lower House of the Legisla-
ture-Many Candidates Busy.

The spirit Of competition is abroad
and it is becoming evident that every
political aspirant in the county who de-
sires to retain his Office or get new
office at the coming general election
will have to fight for it. For the last
six years Walker NJ. Curtiss of Trevor
has represented Kenosha county in the
lower branch of the state legislature
and he has secured the nomination of
his party each time without opposition,
but this year things win be different
and it is announced that Mr.. Curtiss
will have opposition and plenty of it.
Charles L. Marsh, one of the best
known men of the town of Bristol has
been brought into the field as candi-
date for the Republican nomination for
the office of member of the assembly
and it is stated that he is willing to
make the run against Assemblyman
Curtiss. The assemblyman some time
ago announced that he would be a can
didate for denomination.
Mr.. Mash is widely known in the
town of Bristol and throughout the en-
tire county and he has been more or
less in politics for the last twenty years
and it is certain that he will have a
strong following.
He has been active in several state
campaigns and has several times been
urged to run for the Office of member
of the assembly. 1t is possible that
the city will offer a candidate for the
assembly in the person of Attorney
Albert E. Buckmaster Mr.. Buckmast-
er declines to admit that he is a can
didate for the office, but his friends are
pushing him into the fight and he may
later decide to take. out petitions and
seek the nomination.
Matt GreenwaId, president of the
board of water commissioners who made
the run for the Office on the Democratic
ticket two years ago, is being groomed
as the Democratic candidate for mem
Der of the assembly, but he has not
as yet consented to the use of his
name in this connection.
There is also some interest being
shown in the nomination of state SEN
ator for the joint district including Ra-
cine and Kenosha counties. Senator
Bishop has begun active work to secure
a denomination and he is being op-
posed by Charles Everett of RACINE and
it is stated that Charles H. Conner
mann may be a candidate for the
Prof. Otis L. Trenary
who opposed Isaac T. Bishop four years
ago for the nomination has been sug-
gested as candidate but he has made
no announcement of his intention to
enter the field.
In the west part of the county the
political ball has been started rolling
and every one is talking politics. In
fact there seems to be lot more in
terest in politics in Bristol and Salem
than there is in the city of Kenosha.
In the meantime more candidates are
coming into the field for the county of
fees. John Thorn has announced him
self as a candidate for the Democratic
for sheriff. 1t is said that
several Republicans in Salem are con-
the ACCESSIBILITY of entering
the race for sheriff and it is pretty
certain that there will be no less than
ten candidates seeking this nomination
on the two tickets.

The comparison between the assessed
valuations Of the industries of this city
and Racine published in recent issue
of this paper is attracting considerable
attention not only in Racine but in
some OF the other cities of the state
and the smaller taxpayers of our north
ern neighbor are beginning to ask why
the ''big fellows" are so favored by
the assessors of their city. Unques-
tionably the smaller taxpayers have
been getting the worst of it in every
city in which a successful effort has
been made by the big industries to
evade the enforcement of the full value
assessment law and if they wake up
to that fact and insist on their rights
there will be more equitable adjust
ment of the burden of the taxes all
around. The comparative figures on
the industries of the two cities taken
from the assessment rolls Of Racine and
Kenosha show plainly that there is
something wrong somewhere, We have
always contended that Kenosha has
been brought nearer a full value assess
ment than any county in the state and
in consequence has paid more than its
share of the state taxes ever since the
full value assessment law was suppos-
ed to go into effect and not to put too
fine point on it, other counties in
the state will have to show DISPOSE
ton to enforce the law and raise their
assessments to somewhere near full
value or this county viii have to come
down to their level.

THURSDAY, MAY 26, 1910.

The city is doing pretty well when
it can settle $4,000 damage claim for
$50, but the suspicion will not down
that it must have been a pretty weak
claim that some Of the lawyers who
make a speciality of personal damage
suits would not take into court before
settling for such nominal amount.

Mary had little lamb

Where lambs should never go.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
A Germanized Ireland.

To the Editor of The e-Herald:
 How, I wonder, would the Irish Amer ican regard the conquest of Great Bri- tain and the consequent occupation of Erin's Isle by the Teuton hordes? Now that home rule is practically an accom- plished fact, 1t would be indeed a sad spectacle to see the cup of freedom dashed from the lips of the Irish peo- pie just as their hard-fought campaigns were about to be crowned with success. There is unfortunately no shadow of doubt whatever that Germany does con- template the destruction of the British has taken all the colonies worth hav- ing. Britain holds India, Egypt, Aus tralia, Canada, New Zealand, and the most desirable parts of Africa, and to use the vernacular, the Germans have been handed a lemon all the time. Ger many is hungry for trade and for in- fIuence in distant seas. Britain holds fortresses and coaling stations all over the world, Gibraltar, Malta, Cypress. Capetown, the West Indies, Singapore and elsewhere.
 The strongest evidence of German in- tentions is the German navy. There can be no stronger evidence of any nations intentions to wage war than that afford ed by wholesale, feverish and system whom are these preparations directed if not against Britain? Evidently not Rus sia, France or the United States. And the motive? Well. the old trite saying that can only judge the future by the past is exceedingly applicable to the present situation It has been Ger mans policy all along while outwardly protesting friendship for nation to covertly strike at it without any appar- ent motive. Very significant Is the his- toric evidence of Germany's past actions against Denmark, Austria and France. The people of Great Britain has grown seif-indulgent and decadent. Their army is small and unready; that of Germany is immense and always on a war foot ing. There is one man and one man only in Great Britain who can handle the situation if given a free hand I re- fer to Kitchener. an Irshman, man of iron, inex0rable and fearless; a born leader of men, and great organizer. Britain has the material. The Irish and Scotch are among the greatest fighters in the world and their regiments form the backbone of the British army Conscrip- ton is the remedy and it should be im- mediate; the alternative is slavery.

COTTON MARKET
 SLUMPS SHARPLY Extreme Weakness Is Shown In Volume of Trading RECOVERY NEAR CLOSE Liquidation Is Supposed To Have Been From Strong Interests Who Have
 Accumulated Strong Lines
 of Contracts.
RECOVERY NEAR CLOSE

New York, January 1S-rhe New York cotton market, following the downward movement which began shortly after the new year, touched new low levels again today with estimated liquidation of Soo.- 0OO bales.
 The recurrence of extreme weakness seemed to create more apprehension than other recent breaks In prices and at times the market was utterly demoralized.
 At the low point of the day March con- tracts showed a decline of 76 points from the closing figure of last night, while May registered loss of 7S points. In the latter case as compared with the high point of the season, this is a drop Of Sl4s0 a bale. When these low levels were reached, however. an enormous demand from strong trade interests, whose pur- chases checked the decline Friday, brought about a rally and firm close.
 Purchases by spinners who realized that future markets have had a decline of nearly cents a pound from the top, while spot markets have lost little more than S5 per bale and who are buying as a hedge against forward requirements also had strong influence toward sus- tainng the market.
 Generally speaking today's heavy sell ing is supposed to have represented liqui- dation by strong interests who have ac- cumulated large lines of contracts during the progress of the bull market without much publicity.
 These holdings they carried over the break of last week, but apparently lost confidence because of the failure of the market to maintain it's rally of last Sat urday.
 Close observers also thought that the pressure was increased by some Wall street selling for short accounts, and that the rally toward the close of the day was aided by covering.
 With the days liquidation it is esti- mated that since this tremendous selling movement begain about two weeks ago holdings amounting to nearly 100000 bales have been disposed of. These con- tracts are supposed to have gone largely into the hands of trade interests.
