There could hardly have been any real
anticipation on anybody's part that the
commission would without any investiga-
ton whatever attempt TO decide ofrhand
as 10 the justice of these proposed In

companies asking for such increases, and
it has all along been known that a con-
siderable length Of time, possibly as great
as six or eight months would be re-
Quired 10 obtain basis for the determl-
nation by the commission OF the compll-
Gated questions involved.
Nevertheless, news OF the action taken
was hailed to-day by the large army OF
spectators for the decline in Wall street
as a bad thing, and enthusiastic selling
OF stocks was again witnessed. But the
event of this operation was. nevertheless.

TO many observers that whatever might

Those bent on depressing prices are
seemingly finding that they must now be

Even admitting that the present status
Of the market is as described, it does
not follow that prices are yet ripe for

Political activity in this county ap-
pears to; be confined at present to the
circulation of the nomination papers of
men seeking places on the state ticket
but that does not mean that any great
change has taken place in the local
situation or that there will be any
dearth of candidates for any position
in the gift of the voters of the county.
On the contrary there is every indica-.
tion that there will be more men in
the field at. the fall primaries than ever
before in the history of the county,
bu political work seldom commences
in earnest in this county before the
Old Settlers picnic.

That there is a serious menace to
the trade of Kenosha in the proposed
electric line running west from Wau-
kegan and tapping the lake regions of
this county is too plain to require any
argument, Such a road would take
trade which properly belongs to this
city into Waukegan and if this line is
built Kenosha merchants would begin
to notice a falling off in the county
trade from the day the line is opened.
There appears to be something in the
movement for the construction Of this
line from Waukegan and if the people
of Kenosha do not want to see an op-
portunity to build up the trade Of this
city get away from them they must
get busy and use what influence they
can bring to bear for the construction
Of an electric line west from Kenosha
to the limits Of the county, tapping
much of the territory which the Wau-
kegan project proposes to reach with
the line out from Waukegan. Such a
line would pay dividends from. the
start and it is not too much to say that
it is one of the best opportunities for
investment in Wisconsin today. With
any promotion work from this city
