Committee on Industrial In
surance Approve of Racine
Assemblyman's Bill
HELD MEETING At MADISON

The special legislative committee on
industrial insurance have accepted the
bill as made by Assemblyman Wal
lace ingalls, of Racine, and copies are
now being prepared and at a meeting
to be held at Madison within week
or ten days these copies will be approx
ed and sent throughout the state for
either the endorsement or criticism of
employers and employees.
The bill as drafted by Mr.. ingalls,
has been published in the local press
and it received the endorsement of the
employers and employees Of this city as
well as of the officers of the Wisconsin
State Federation of Labor When Mr..
Ingalls, was appointed on the special
legislative committee which committee
was to outline some plan for industrial
insurance and a protection for the vast
Iarmy of working people of Wisconsin
he made most careful study Of the
question, in fact he devoted nearly all
Of his time in preparing a bill which
he believed would he fair to employers
and employees. This plan was submit
ted at a convention held in Washing
ton few weeks ago and was declared
to be the best bill of it's kind ever
drawn up in any state At Madison
when the committee met other plans
were offered but that of Mr.. ingalls,
was adopted and the committee called
on Gov. Davidson and informed him
that the committee on Industrial insur-
ance was ready to report should a
special session of the legislature be
called, The bill was read to Gov
Davidson and he approved it, but he
did not believe that he would call a
special session of the legislature as
other committees had not completed
their work and would not until late
in the spring.

The supreme court of Illinois has
knocked out the parole law of that
state and now the findings of the par
don board have to be passed ON by the
trial judge and the governor before
they become effective. The recent
blunder of the Wisconsin board of re-
view in handling case from this
city when the reasonable requests Of
the district attorney and the trial
judge for hearing before action was
taken were absolutely ignored by the
board of review suggests that it
would not be a bad thing to have some
such provision added to the parole law
of this state and possibly a move may
come from this county when the legis-
lature meets again to have the COVER
nor and the trial judge pass on the
findings Of the board.

1t is expected that the long awaited
building ordinance \will be presented
at the meeting of the council this even
ing and it is to be hoped that that
body will make what arrangements
may be necessary to have it put on
the statute books of the city with as
little delay as possible. The members
OF the special committee appointed to
draw up this highly important ordi-
nance have devoted about all of their
spare time to its preparation during
the past year and they believe that it
is as nearly perfect as it is possible
to get it. Every section of the ordi-
nance was prepared by an expert in
the line of which it treats and it's
trainers believe that it will cover all
the needs of the city for years to come.
There can be no question that the city
should have law of the kind and that
the sooner 1T is in force the better it
will be for all concerned. This ordi-
nance should be in force with the OMEN
ing of the new building season and
the council has no more than time
enough to get it through before the
opening. The ordinance is so volumin-
Gus that the mere task of giving it the
necessary readings will be long
monotonous grind for the aldermen. but
their duty in the matter is plain and
they are doubtless as willing as the
members of the committee to give their
time for the benefit of the workinpmen
of the city. This ordinance was drawn
primarily for the benefit and protection
of the men engaged in the building
trades in the city and they should use
their best efforts to secure the early
consideration and passage of the ordi-
nance. As a matter of fact if was
an accident due to faulty construction
which aroused public sentiment in fay-
or of a comprehensive building ordi-
nance for the city.

|G|VES WIDE POWERS NAME bob" SIMPSON
Former Golf Champion Elm.
plOyed as Instructor for
Kenosha Country Club
HAS BEEN A FAMOUS GOLFER

Robert Simpson, better known in
the golfng world as 'fBob" Simpson,
former western open champion, has
been employed by the officers of the
Kenosha Country Club as club profes-
sional for the local club for the sea-
son of 1910 and he will come to Keno
sha late in March to take charge of the
club house and in part superintend
the erection of the new locker rooms.
In securing Bob Simpson the local club
has secured one of the best golfers in
the country and there is little doubt
but that his coming to Kenosha will
result in big revival of the Scotch
game Turing the coming summer.
Simpson is a top notcher in every
way. In 1907 he won the western
open championship from one of the
strongest fields of players ever entered
for this big event and in every con
test for golf honors in the last ten
years among professionals he has been
one of the leading contenders for hon
ors. Simpson also has record as an
instructor and he has been in charge
of clubs at Omaha, Oconomowoc and
other cities. For the past two years
he had been the professional in charge
at the Blue Mound Country Club in
Milwaukee but division among the
members of that club as to the plans
for the new year made it possible for
Simpson to be secured by the Kenosha
club and his contract was promptly
forwarded to him for his signature.
Simpson will have charge of the
locker rooms of the Kenosha club and
will also be in charge of the sale of
balls and clubs. He has reputation
second to none as club maker and as
an instructor. The coming of Simp-
son will make it possible for the
younger players of the club to get
under the guidance of one of the best
known instructors of the country and
it is expected that he will be able to
bring many new candidates for cham
pionship honors into the ranks of the
Kenosha club.
The preliminary work at the Keno
sha club will be started within a few
days as the general plans for the new
building have been approved by the
committee in charge and the work will
be started just as soon as ground can
be broken. The new locker room
when completed will be one of the best
to be found at the grounds of any Wis
consin club.

The unattractiveness of the Ameri-
can cuisine has nothing to do with
high prices. If anything, a strong
prediction for soggy pie, griddle
cakes and corn on the ear should mill
tate against unreasonable increases in
the price of meat. We liked under
done pastry fifteen years ago when
living was cheap fully as much as we
do now. In the large cities we have
been growing better acquainted with
the foreign dietaries. Many Ameri-
cans nowadays eat spaghetti without
too much self consciousness, and have
learned to look without suspicion on
the wonderfully savory stews of fair
France. 1t is different when Ameri-
can women are accused of not know
ing how to save in cooking. The
charge holds. But why should the
American woman be held up to scorn
when American husbands, American
children, American legislatures and
American cities set at defiance the ele-
mentary principles of thrift?-New

SEND GIRL TOCONvENT
Laura Mead Found in Keno
sha Sunday is Sent tOa
Chicago Convent
FIND CASE AN UNUSUAL ONE

Laura Mead, the 16 year old girl,
employed in Waukegan up to last Sat
urday, arrested in Kenosha Sunday
evening at the instance of her mother,
Mrs. Sites, of North Sheridan road,
Waukegan, was taken to Chicago
Monday and placed in the Home of
the Good Shepherd convent. Mrs.
Sites claimed that the girl was I'M
manageable.
When about IA years of age the
girl was placed in the convent by her
mother who claimed that the girl was
keeping improper company. The girl
was kept there over year and was
taken out but a short time ago by her
mother She accepted the position
in Waukegan and had been working
there several months.
The girl always complained that her
mother treated her in an unnatural
manner, saying that her being sent to
tiG COuNCuI was UOb out OF nOGlcfIy
interest but simply as an act of prose-
cution. She declared that her life
in the convent was almost unbearable
and often declared that she would
kill herself before she would be sent
back
A short time ago the mother claims
to. have received reports that the girl
was not behaving properly and threat
ened to send her back to the convent.
These reports are said to have been
unfounded, being started in an at
tempt to injure the girls reputation.
On Saturday morning the girl learn
ed that her mother was coming with
an officer on that day to take her back
to the convent. She took a part of
her clothes and went to the home of
a friend near the place where she
was working. Her mother arrived
short time later with policeman and
instituted search for the girl but
was unable to find her.

Respectfully yours,
G. Windesheim.

What action will eventually be tax
en- with regard to the Jail by the
county board of supervisors depends
largely on how much power the law
gives the state board of control. The
board of control has repeatedly declar-
ed the present structure to be in the
highest degree unsanitary and dis
grace to civilized community, but
the supervisors have gotten into such
tangle over the matter that it ap-
pears to be unlikely that anything
will be done barring a few superficial
repairs unless the board of control
has the power to force action.

The first round in the battle for the
lighting business in the city has been
ended by the decision of the Judge
of the circuit court handed down
Monday and it must be admitted that
SO far the honors of war rest with
the gas company. Every point made
by the attorneys for the gas company
in the quo warranto proceedings was
sustained by the court, the ordinance
under which the electric railway com

to supply lights to the city and for
commercial purposes was declared in
valid, and the public utilities act
which was entirely ignored by the
electric company was declared consti-
