Who is going to represent the con-
sumner in the conferences which will
soon be on between the milk producers
and the big retailing companiesg The
consumer wants every possible protec-
tion thrown around his milk supply, he
realizes that the added protection Civ
en- him by the enforcement of sanitary
regulations has increased the cost of
production, and for that reason he has
paid the higher prices for his milk
without too much complaint. The
best evidence obtainable, however.
seems to show that the producer who
shares in the increased cost has not
been getting his proportionate share
OF the higher prices the consumer has
been compelled to pay and therefore
the producer has had the sympathy and
support of the consumer in his bat
ties to secure a division of the added
money the consumer is paying to the
retailers, but should the producers win
their fight and the raise in wholesale
prices be tackled on to what the con-
sumner is already paying the burden
of the fight would be simply trans
ferred to the shoulders of the consum
er and that is something the producer
should not countenance. After all
the consumer is the producers customer
rather than the middlemans and he is
entitled to all the protection the pro
Queer can give him and if the produc
ers have any evidence of an illegal
combine among the retailers to boost
prices they should act on it even though
the retailers may accede to their de-
mands Better still if the producers
can figure out way to deal directly
with their customers and by operating
their own creameries and central dis
tributing agencies cut down retail
prices. From every standpoint the
latter would be the ideal outcome of
the present difficulties both for the
producer and consumer for the produc-
en- would get some of the middlemans
profits and lower prices would greatly
increase consumption.

We presume that City Clerk Harring
ton will keep his Office open this even
ing until any reasonable hour and he
might even be persuaded to stay there
until midnight to accommodate the late
comers who wish to file their petitions
as candidates at the primaries, but it
is understood that after midnight no
more petitions can be accepted and
that any candidates who fail to get
their petitions in this evening cannot
have their names placed on the primary
ballots. The committees and leaders
of both the old parties seem to have
walked up at the eleventh hour to the
importance of having full tickets in
the field at the coming election and as
the party committees have not power
to place any names on the ballots for
offices for which no candidates have
appeared it is believed that petitions
of candidates for every place on the
tickets will be fled before closing time
this evening.

When the membership lists of the
new industrial association are present
ed to you sign your name and hand
out two dollars-one for the initiation
fees and the other for annual dues
1t is important in every way that the
association have both the moral and
financial support of all citizens who
are interested in the growth and de.
velopment of Kenosha and the charter
membership roll of the association
should be large enough to give the
organization good working fund to
begin on. The list of officers and di-
rectors of the association is sufficient
guarantee that any money which may
be paid into the treasury will be used
solely for the purposes for which it
was intended and that this association
will do all that any organization can do
to promote the interests Of the city in
every way. Similar organizations
have been very successful in promotion
work in other cities and there is every
reason to anticipate that the new in
dustrial association will be successful
in locating industries in Kenosha if it
receives proper support.

GOES TO SEE GREAT VOLCANO
Writes an Interesting Letter in
Telling of the Greatness of the
Island Possessions in the Pacific
Ocean,
By Lawson r. Muzzey.


Royal Hawiian Hotel, Honolulu,
Feb. 6, 1910.
After a voyage Of 1900 miles from
Naples, Italy to Alexandria, thence to
Cairo, Egypt, on to Port Said, through
Suez Canal and Red Sea, we steamed
on the Prinz Eitel Friedrich for many
weeks and thousands miles eastward.
Stopped off at Alden, Penang and Sing
apore, the hottest places in all the
world. Then came a charming visit
to Columbo, Ceylon, thorough inspec-
tion of Hong Kong, and Shanghai, of
which marvelously strange cities we
could easily give pages. The passage
from Nagasaki through the Island Sea,
Japan, was simply ideal for novelty
and attractive scenery. Aobe, Kyoto,
Yokohama and Tokyo were successive
ly explored with a delight that never
tagged for a moment Then came the
long voyage of other thousands of miles
through the Pacific ocean to this city
and these Islands, where the tourist
may rest and refresh himself amid sur
roundings, charming beyond compare.
This is a strong comparison, but it is
used with due reflection and delibera-
ton. When mere lad / read glow
ing descriptions of the Hawaiian Is
lands. Now and ''On the very spot,
I am actually residing in Honolulu and
fully realizing my long ago dream of
this island with all it's perfection of
climate, and air, and sea and surf and
flowers and mountainous loveliness. AS

it remains at an equable degree through

The arrest of four young boys on a
charge of stealing brass which they
disposed of to junk dealer will serve
to call attention to law passed at the
last session of the legislature which
was especially intended to cover just
such cases and it will also give the
police of the city an opportunity to
test the operation of the law which it
is to be hoped they will take the full
est advantage of. The law in brief
provides that no boy under eighteen
years of age shall sell junk to any one
without first having a permit from his
parents or guardians to make such
sales and if such a law had been put
in force long ago many boy and man
now doing time in the reformatory and
penal institutions of the state would
now be at liberty and good and useful
members of society. This stealing Of
old metal for which there has always
hitherto been a ready market has in
most cases been the first step in
career of crime, but the temptation has
been removed with the closing of the
market for there will be no incentive
to steal when the stuff cannot be dis
posed of. The penalties for the VIC
lation of this law are severe enough
to make the junk dealers hesitate and
instead of branding young boys with
the stigma of a conviction for theft
which will follow them all their lives
the blame for this petty thieving will
be put just where it belongs in nine
cases out of ten, upon the shoulders of
the only ones who make any real profit
out of it. The law promises to cut
down the number of appearances of
young boys in the municipal court very
materially and to make the work of
the police easier. The police have no
choice but to protect property but the
most disagreeable part of their duties
is to fasten crimes on the boys. They
know only too well what effect con-
viction is apt to have on a boys
future

A rumor that there was case of
small pox in the city went the rounds
Thursday with startling rapidity and
many people were much worried for
fear that the dread disease had gained
foothold in the city The health
officers Immediately made thorough
investigation, but were unable to find
the slightest trace Of the disease any
where in the city or near it and they
are at loss to account for the origin
of the reports. The only cases of
contagious diseases in the city at this
time are some cases of scarlet fever,
but the health officers believe that
there is not the slightest danger that
this disease will become epidemic.

Another suit to prevent the city from
collecting the assessments levied for
the paving of West Market street has
been started and the men behind it an
nounce that this case is to be taken
to the supreme court for ruling. The
fact that the matter has again been
taken up by the property owners after
their defeat in the circuit court shows
that they are determined to fight the
collection of this assessment to the
bitter end and that they will never
rest satisfied until the highest court in
the state decides against them. While
the victory of the city in the circuit
court seems to indicate that the city
has good case from legal standpoint
it is hardly likely that the Market
street property owners would have con-
tinued their fight against the assess.
ments unless they have received as
surances. that there is at least an
equal chance for them to win along
the lines on which their new suit has
been commenced and it looks very
much as if the city was facing long
aud more or less expensive legal bat
tie with the possibility of being beat
en- and having to stand the entire ex-
pense of the paving in the end. The
fact that this new action is brought
in the name of the owners of but a
single piece of the property on the
street means nothing so far as the city
is concerned for if it is beaten in this
case all of the other property owners
viii escape payments under the same
decision. Any decision on this one
piece of property win apply to all Of

Every man, woman, and child who
had relatives in the army who had es-
tablished a residence in the county at
the beginning of the rebellion is in
terested in the work of the commission
appointed to have charge of the work
of erecting the memorial to the soldiers
and sailors of Kenosha and they should
give the commissioners every assis-
tance in collecting the data neces-
sary to make the memorial accurate
and complete. This is labor of love
with the members of the commission
and their only fear is that the names
of some Of the men who are entitled
to the honor may be omitted from the
tablets. Any one having any knowl-
edge of any Kenosha county soldier
who may have enlisted in any other
state or any letters or dairies giving
any facts in regard to the war record
of any Kenosha county soldier will be
doing nothing more than his simple
duty in forwarding this information to
any member of the commission at once.

ASKS A DIVORCE
Ralph Robinson Files Suit for separa-
tion From His Wife Edith

Ralph Robinson of Kenosha through
his attorneys Fisher and Fisher, has
filed a suit in the circuit court asking
a divorce from his wife Edith May
Robinson who is a native of Yorkshire,
England, and now living in that coun-
try. In his complaint the plaintiff
charges the wife with desertion alleg-
ing that she deserted him in England
and that she refused to come with him
to this country two years ago. He al
so charged her with infdelity, but no
correspondent is named in the com
plant. The suit will come for trial
at the March term of the circuit court
and it is not expected that it will be
contested. The complaint alleges that
Mrs. Robinson is now living with an
other man in England.

called "dry rains. = The island is
mountainous inland. Around these
mountain crests the white, feecy clouds
seem to hover continually. 1t is from
these, of course, that these minute
showers come. There were three of
these in sight at one time from the
ship and two of these reached our
deck but only for a half minute, and
the decks dried almost as soon as as
the drops ceased. The sight, as we
slowly steamed into the harbor was
grand in the extreme. For months the
tourist had been in foreign lands, see
ing alien flags, listening to the music
of foreign powers, and hearing dozens
of foreign tongues. Here we were
at home! There were seven of our
own war ships, flying our beautiful
eolors. Yes, band on the Admiral S
ship struck up what to me seemed
the most inspiring strain I have
ever heard. 1t was fsThe Star. Spang-
led Banner and instantly every head
on the steamer was bowed, and not
word was spoken and no one moved
until the music ceased. Then how
they cheered!
1t was not until today that I had
what, in many respects, was the
most interesting experience of several
months, upon inquiry I had learned
that Lieutenant Commander Theleen of
our city, Kenosha, Wisconsin, was ordi-
nance officer on board the magnificent
ship Washington. This great vessel
can steam 81 knots an hour, is com
manded by the popular Captain Rog-
ers, and has that proudest of all dis
tinctions, I refer to the fact that she
won the last highest record for target
practice in all the U. S. navy. [ was
shown the trophy and was delighted to
observe that the officers were justly
proud of their record. Leaving the
tender, I was met on the forward deck
by Ensign Norris who informed me
that Lieutenant Theleen was on shore
for the day. This was very grievous
disappointment. However, Mr.. Nor
ris very kindly escorted me over the
great war machine and carefully ex-
planned the workings of the great 10
inch guns in the forward turret. I
afterward learned that this modest Of
ficer had charge of these guns and of
their work when at practice or in the
event Of war. Upon being presented
to Commander Lee, executive officer
of the ship, was further shown other
features of this powerful vessel The
Washington has a regular postofice
with postmaster and assistant, a sys-
tenn of fire alarm that is perfection
itself and a fully equipped printing of
fee that turns out strictly first class
half tone and letter press work,
newspaper is issued regularly each
month, and several printers are kept
busily at work. The most surprising
feature to me, as landsman, was the
telephone system. It is run as any
shore town would have it, with hello
girls, not girls, but marines to answer
calls and do the work at central. "
Commander Lee stated that there were
one hundred and thirty-six telephone
stations ON the ship. The private
cabin of Commander Lee was model
of compact neatness and adjustment,
with private bath, hot and cold water,
etc. Nothing was lacking for comfort,
except it was limited in size. Commander
Lee introduced the tourist to Captain
Rogers and was courteously shown

INVESTIGATION
IS BEING MADE.
At BARRANCAS
USE OF COCAINE BY SOME OF
THE MEN STATIONED THERE
HAS CAUSED GOVERNMENT TO
START AN INVESTIGATION.

The use of cocaine by artillerymen
stationed at Fort Barrancas, and the
fact that several have been addicted
to the drug, has caused an investiga-
ton to be started by the officers. This
has already resulted IL the arrest OF
one man, who is held in the guard
house with the probability of facing a
general court martial in the near
future.
It is stated that a number of others
are suspected, and that officers will
take the proper steps to break UP the
practice. 1t is stated that the men
have become addicted to its use
through association with parties in the
restricted district.
The inquiry not only included the
men at the fort, but was thorough
enough to determine the sources from
which it started, and also the parties
who are making sales of cocaine in
violation of the law. 1t is expected
that further proceedings will develop.

The desirability of lamb chops at
this time goes without saying. The
rib chops make the best looking dish,
and green peas or white potatoes,
cut in marbles and trimmed with
melted butter and chopped parsley,
are considered a proper flank for
them.
Seasonable poultry includes spring
chickens, green ducks and young
geese. Squads are also in market at
this time, as they are the whole year
round for that matter, but no bird of
a game nature is eaten at this time

tive species, for occasionally game is
brought from England and southern
Texas for which the game laws do
not seem to hold themselves re-
sponsible.
Rabbits and hares are never eaten
in June except by persons who do not
understand that the strict season for
these furry creatures is from No
vember to January.
