Realizing that he has exceedingly

Of financial emissaries for the purpose
of obtaining money from prospective
converts. Several of the omission
aries have been out in the harvest
field for some time and good results
have been obtained it is reported.
This method Of obtaining money was
worked very successfully by Dowie who
had large staff of financial messeng-
ers who sought new converts and work
ed upon old ones also with an eye to
the main chance. Voliva has to make
payment of $4,000 February / and
similar payments every two months
during this year on the purchase price
of the hospice and administration
buildings. These payments are not
the only ones which he is obligated
to meet and there are many who be-
lieve that he has over estimated his
ability as a collector Of the offerings

long illness from a complication of

LOCAL MERCHANTS TO OBJECT
Kenosha Merchants to Join With Mil

Kenosha merchants are getting in
touch with the officials of the Mer-
chants and Manufacturers Association
of Milwaukee with view of submit
ting evidence to the state railway com
mission in regard to discrimination in
rates charged by express companies. One
case fell under the observation of the
Kenosha merchants this morning. Two
twenty-five pound kegs of coffee were
sent to Kenosha from Chicago by ex-
press. On one Of them the charge
was fifteen cents while on the other
the charge was forty-fve cents, the
total charge being sixty cents or at a
rate Of more than a dollar for a humid
red pounds. Many other examples of
badly twisted rates are being found in
Kenosha and there is no doubt but
that this city will furnish some very
interesting cases for examination by
the rate commission.

TO INVESTIGATE THOROUGHLY
Governor Declares That There is TOO
Great a Difference Between Prices
Paid the Producers and Charged to
the Consumers

Announcement is being quietly made
in circles close to Gov. James o. Dav-
idson that if special session Of the
legislature is held Gov. Davidson may
inject a new issue into the session
which Is not included in the resolu-
tion for the meeting which was passed
at the regular session last winter.
The new issue which it is proposed
to spring in the special session is a
resolution for an Investigation by the
legislature Of the prevailing high
prices Of food products and their
causes. 1t is said the governor has
been looking into the matter and
thinks the prevailing conditions de-
mand legislative inquiry. 1t is also
declared that, if he issues call for
a special session, he will include in the
call demand that the legislature dur
ing it's session make an investigation
into conditions Of living and the rea-
son for the high cost of food products.
The governor does not think that
an investigation on this subject, if well
conducted, need last for any great
length of time and that if a commit
tee were to begin the work as soon as
the session convened, it would be able
to recommend some legislation that
might be adopted at the session for
the regulation Of the sale Of food
products and which would tend to les
sen their cost. 1t is the idea Of the
governor that the committee should
take into consideration the prices paid
farmers for the original product and
the investigation followed until the
cost to the consumer is learned and
the blame fixed if possible for the pre-
vailing high prices. Thus it is the
contention Of the friends of Gov. Dav-
idson who are DESTROYS the investiga-
tion shall be conducted that there is a
wide discrepancy between the amount
paid the farmer for produce and the
cost Of the same to the ultimate con-
sumner
1t Is the idea Of the governor that
the people conducting the investiga-
ton shall figure out the cost of trans
portation, the cost of handling, and in
the case of cattle the cost of slaught-
ering and preparing the meat and
that the legislature shall be given
these figures and be in a position to
have definite conclusions as to just
what the profits to each line Of bust
ness are. Tt is true, according to the
belief of the friends of Gov. David
son, that the farmers are obtaining
fair prices for their products but it
is their belief that the. investigation
will show their returns are none too
high but that the real profits go to
the manufacturers of food products
and the middle man.
AS an illustration, it can be said that
both in Michigan and Wisconsin this
last year the potato yields were good
and as result the farmers are being
obliged to sell their potato crops to
buyers for very moderate price. On
the other hand, in the markets of Mil
waukee and other large cities pota-
toes are bringing almost as high, if
not fully as high, prices as in years
when the yield has not been anywhere
near as abundant.
