Racine and Kenosha Police
Have Strenuous Time Ar
resting Hold Up Man
AUTOMOBILE WINS FROM CAR

Police Officer Frank McClusky had
an exciting chase after an alleged hold
up man on Monday afternoon and won
the race for the man against his
friends who had gone to warn him
just far enough to permit him to
make the arrest. The man was Simon
Stakeimiz for whom a warrant was is
sued in the municipal court on Mon
day charging assault and robbery of
Ignatz Lukosewicz.
The crime occurred on Pleasant
street on Sunday night and on Mon
day it was learned that the accused
man had fed to Racine and was being
hidden by friends in that city. Nc
Clusky who is pretty handy among
these foreigners managed to find out
the location of the man in Racine and
Immediately after dinner he started for
Racine to get him. AS soon as he
boarded the car he noticed that two
men were keeping close tab on his
every movement and before Racine
was reached he discovered that they
were friends of Stakeimiz and that
they were evidently on their way to
Racine to warn the fellow to keep out
of the reach of the officials. McCMs-
ky formed his plans quickly.
The boarding house where the man
was in hiding was at the north limits
of Racine and the car went within a
few doors of it but the Kenosha Of
ficer was forced to stop at the Racine
police office and get an officer to go
with him to make the arrest He
managed to enlist the aid of one of
the officials in charge of the ear and
at one of the stops made by the car
the conductor telephoned to the CEN
trail officers in Racine and directed the
officers there to get an automobile in
readiness. When the ear reached the
police Office Officer George of the Ra-
cine force and several of the Racine
detectives were in waiting. 1t took
MeClusky about one minute to ex-
plain the location of the house and by
this time the car which carried the
friends of the man sought had gone
four blocks.
The officers jumped into the auto
mobile and disregarding speed limits
started for the boarding house They
managed to arrive at the place at the
same time the men jumped from the
car. McClusky rushed to the front
door of the house and the two friends
of Stakeimiz ran into the back door.
Stakeimiz was not slow to take the
hint and he started to run, but the
officers had no trouble in getting him
and he was hustled on the next car
and brought back to Kenosha. He
declined to make any statement in re-
gard to the charges brought against
him and the case was taken up in the
municipal court late this afternoon.
The two men who sought to aid his
escape wese not taken into custody by
the officers, but it is possible that the
district attorney may decide to take
some action in their cases later.

The Weight of Evidence.

After a term of two years as mayor
of the city Mayor Scholey is again
before the people Tor reelection to
the Office, and while it may be stated
that the Office Of city executive IS a
snecure unless that official has the
support of the common council Mayor
SchoIey has nothing to hide behind
In the two years that he has been
mayor he has had a council Favorable
to his every suggestion and he must
stand before the people responsible for
what has been done in that admins
tration. Petty jealousies may have
prevailed at the primary election, but
now the time has come for the people
to look at this matter Of hiring a
new boss from a business standpoint.
1t is up to the individual voter who
pays his taxes to get busy and look
into the record of the mayor during
the two years term. From his own
party has come the charge that the
MAYOR has handled the affairs OF the
citv in manner which could be class
ed as nothing less than foolish ex-
travagance." The weight of the evil
dence must be with the mayor. He
must show to the people that the
charges against him are wrong II he
desires to get the support of the ma
ionty of the tax payers at the city
election. 1t is suggested that Mayor
Scholey will not necessarily need the
tax payers and that his election can
be brought about by the great MAORI
ty of the people who do not pay taxes
and who for this reason are willing to
sell their birthright for mess of pot
tage. These non-tax payers have lit
tie or no interest in the city and they
are too often led to cast their votes
for the man who can put up the most
in the line of the satisfaction of their
own selfish wants. 1t is up to the
tax payers to unite and go into this
election Just as they would into any
other business proposition and ask the
mayor to show just why he is entitled
to spend their money for another two
years. Their influence will be power
full and their attitude will go a long
way toward influencing the votes Of
men who pay no taxes. The claim
of the mayor that his record is vindi
Gated by the vote at the primary cleo
ton means nothing unless it is backed
up by the electors at the city election
The records of the administration of
Mayor Scholey are open and the tax
payer who takes his time to give them
an investigation must arrive at the
conclusion that the administration has
not got value received for the money
expended. The mayor demands an
investigation of his record and those
who are strongest in the opposition to
a continuance of his political power
insist that he be taken at his
word. 1t is the duty of the tax
payer to advise himself on conditions
of the city treasury and the manner
in which the public monies have been
spent before he goes to the polls on
election day.

Politics and the Saloon.

There are any number Of good men
in Kenosha who are patrons OF the
saloons and who have no objections
to going in at the front door and
standing up to the bar and buying
drinks who have announced their In
tention to vote for ''no-license at the
coming election These men are not
advocates of prohibition nor are they
in favor of putting the saloon out of
commission in Kenosha, but they have
been driven to the determination to
vote "dry" on account Of the over
bearing stand that the saloon has TAX
en- in the politics of Kenosha. These
men believe that the place of the sa-
loon man is behind the bar and not
in the council determining the policy
Of the city. They hold that the sa-
loon man is directly responsible to the
city for his right to engage in business
and that for this reason he should not
hamper the officials in passing on this
right by his presence among them.
These men hold further that the time
has come when the saloon man in Ke-
nosha should be out Of politics. No
business man in the city takes the
stand in politics that the saloon man
takes. The first thought of the can
didates nominated for office in Keno
sha at the present time is chow will
the saloon men take my candidacy?'
They fail to take up the proposition
Of chow will the manufacturer en-
ploying thousands of men or the mer
chant contributing literally to the
taxes look at me as a candidate but
the whole idea Of a good or a bad
candidate hinges on just how many
of the votes of the so-called "saloon
men" he can swing. This is no new
proposition. The saloon power has
been felt in Kenosha for years and
the fact that this power has been
used to it's full limit has resulted in
driving many a voter who under ordi-
nary circumstances would favor license
into no license ranks. The liquor in
terests at one time dominated the
political destinies of the southern states
and this fact more than any other re-
suited in these states becoming prohi-
bition territory. They went out not
to get prohibition, but the emancipa-
ton from the power Of the liquor man
in politics and this is the Same feeling
that is being generated in Kenosha
and Wisconsin today. Continued vi
olation and disrespect for law coupled
with the election of officials who at
many times played for the saloons
rather than worked for the interests
of the people. These things have
been going on for years until some
men have decided that the only way
to eliminate the domination of the sa-
loon in public and political life is to
eliminate the saloon entirely. Should
Kenosha vote to enter the list of dry
cities it will not be because a ma
jority of the people of the city are in
favor of prohibition in the general
meaning of this term, but because
they are in favor of the prohibition of
the saloon man as power in politics.
