WON'T SUPPORT FAIRcH1LD
Move on Foot to Bring Another Candi-
date for Governor into the Field

There is very strong demand IN
various parts of the state that an
other candidate be brought into the
field for the Republican nomination
for governor and the movement, which
was referred to as having been begun
by editors of some of the Republican
daily papers in the interior of the state
for another candidate, is gaining
ground rapidly.
The papers Whose editors are inter-
esting themselves in this movement
are, besides The GAINESVILLE Gazette and
The Oshkosh Daily Northwestern,
which were mentioned last week, The
Madison State Journal, The Racine
Journal, The Marinette Eagle and
some other dailies of less prominence.
Most of these papers have previous
ly been conservative in their proclivi-,
ties as far as the Republican fractional
row in this state is concerned. Their
objection to E. t. Fairchild. the con-
sentative Republican gubernatorial can
didate, is on account of his expressed
attitude against county option and it
is claimed some of the editors have
gone so far as to say that unless
new candidate is brought into the field
they will support Capt. William Nit
chell Lewis as candidate for the Re-
publican nomination for governor.
The situation has gone so far as to
cause worry among the men behind
Senator Fairchild. Such men as Sen.
ator Whitehead are said to endorse
the movement and altogether it is tax
ing very organized form.
The two men whom the editors are
now most discussing as the sixth can
didate are Gov. Davidson and George
B. Hudson. If neither of these men
will run they will, they say, find some
other man, but they declare under no
account will they support Senator
Fairchild, standing as he does on an
anti county option platform
1t is said there has been a large
amount of correspondence exchanged
between the editors the last week on
the gubernatorial situation and that
they expect their plans will be in
shane to nalxa Soma daHpi+o o,,,o,,roo
ment early next week.-Milwauke

cozg, a law abolishing such practices.
[ ask your consideration, therefore,
of what are known as Model License
provisions and should they appeal to
you 1 urge that your influence be en-
ployed to engraft them into your liquor
ordinances.
We recommend:
First-That all licenses must be re-
newed so long as the holder is not con-
victed the second time of the viola
tion of law and the business is not pro-
hibited by a vote of the people.
Second-The licenses issued in the fu-
ture shall not be in excess of one lie
ense for each five hundred of popula-
ton.
Third-That the license shall be reas-
enable, fair and just and not represent
penalty.
Fourth-That for the first conviction
by a jury of the violation of law the
license shall be suspended for thirty
days and the place closed for that per-
iod; and for the second like conviction
the license shall be cancelled, and the
holder never again licensed to retail
| liquors in-that city.
The permanent license will remove
the saloonkeeper from politics, for the
political boss could no longer cancel
his right to do business; it would be a
valuable asset and especially if limit
ed in number as suggested, and the
holder of such a license would hesitate
a long time before he would invite its
destruction by violating law.
The mandatory penalty which no
judge could set aside would do away
with the farce of minimized penalties
which are generally imposed and which
are merely an invitation to further dis
obedience.
Under most of our license laws the
profits incident to the violation of law
are SO great as compared with the pen
alties imposed that the one thought of
the saloonkeeper in his fierce struggle
for existence is to get around the law,
but under Model License the saloon
keepers one thought would be to obey
the law.
Saloonkeepers, like bankers, merch-
ants, manufacturers, railway compan-
les, oil magnates and men in general
will violate law if it pays and if the
penalties are small, but no man will
violate law if he knows it will not pay.
The National Model License league
has but one purpose and that is to bring
about the adoption of license laws IN
der which the liquor trade will not be
tempted or compelled to violate law. and
in submitting our ideas to you we in
dulge the hope that you win give them
your favorable consideration and Join
with us in urging their adoption.
Yours very truly,
Z, NJ. GILMORE.
Pres. National Model License League.

Building is Complete in Every Way
and Kenosha Clerks and Carriers
Have Perfect Place in which to Do
Their Work.

The new Kenosha postofice built and
equipped by the United States Govern
ment at cost of more than $4,000
was thrown open for the use of the
public on Sunday morning. Saturday
night the postmaster and his men began
the work of moving the Office from the
old quarters and when the windows
were opened for the regular Sunday
delivery of mail every thing was COM
pletely arranged and the Office had the
appearance of having been in use for
months. Postmaster Maloney and his
staff were on hand early Sunday morn
ing and everything moved smoothly
when the office was opened. There was
absolutely no ceremony attending the
opening but the Postmaster was kept
busy accepting the congratulations of
the patrons of the Office during the
morning and in the afternoon when
the office was thrown open for the in
spection of the public a great throng
Of people went to the new building and
inspected it from basement to attic.
They even peeked through the "eyes
of the boss' and went down into the
boiler room.
Every one pronounces the building
perfect postofice building and the
equipment that has been furnished by
the government is sas good or better
than that to be found in any post Office
In the state.
Every care has been taken to make
the building comfortable for the men
engaged in the distribution and dis
patch of the mails and the only com
plant that was heard was the fear
that in few years the building would
prove too small for the growing bust
ness of 4Kenosha.
The government has overlooked no
detail in the construction and equip
ment of the building. On the ground
floor of the building is the post Office
the private office of the postmaster.
This is room finished in oak and fitted
with every modern convenience, adj
joining it is the main office. This is
particularly well lighted and provided
with every comfort for the clerks and
carriers. In the North east corner of
the building is a large room to be used
exclusively for the money order and
registry department.
The large basement is completely fin
ished. The big main room Of the base
ment is used as boiler room and for
storage. Adjoining it is room for the
use of the carriers in which lockers
are provided for their clothing. Ad-
joining this is sanitary toilet room
fitted with baths and shower baths The
toilet rooms in all parts OF the building
are finished in marble.
The main corridor of the building is
one of the most beautiful corridors ever
planned by the government. 1t is
large enough to accommodate from
hundred to two hundred people.
The boxes are placed at the north
end of the building leaving the entire
center of the building for the general
delivery.

WOULD PAVE SOUTH STREET.
Petitions Out Seeking to Pave Street
From Main st. to Railway Tracks.

Extension of street paving in Keno
sha during the present year now ap-
pears to be very probable as added to
the fact that a petition is out for the
paving Of Elizabeth street from Ash
land avenue to the West limits Of the
city, petition has been taken out ask
ing for the paving of South street from
Main street to the tracks Of the Chi
cago and Northwestern Railway Com
pany.
It is thought that the petition will
have been signed by a majority of the
property owners by this evening and
that it will be presented to the council
tonight The street is sadly in need of
paving as it is one of the few down
town streets that has not been taken
care Of. IF the petition goes to the
council this evening it is thought that
action will be taken so that the street
can be paved before the close Of the
present paving season.

PANAMA LIBEL SUIT
TO Be HEARD MONDAY
Action Ordered by Roosevelt
Against the New York World
in Supreme Court.
Ry Associated Press,

WASHINGTON. ID. G. Oct. IL
When the so-called Panama libel
srit'' of the United States against the
Press Publishing Company of New
York, was called for argument today
in the Supreme Court Of the United
States, the attorneys concerned OBJ
tanned a postponement until Monday.
The case was not reached until so
late In the afternoon that the argu-
ment could not have been completed
today. had the attorneys proceeded.
The present plan of the court is to
hear the case after the rendering OF
opinions on Monday.
The case is that in which former
President Roosevelt ordered the de-
,artment of justice TO proceed against
the publishers of the New York
World. because of the publication of
stories to the effect that there had
been savoFitism in the purchase of the
Panama canal property by which cap
italists. including Charles Z. Taft.
brother of the President; Douglas
Robinson. brother-in-law of former
President Roosevelt. and others. were
charged with having reaped great n
nancial benefit.
Because of the fact that the World
circulated upon the government reser-
walton at Yves; Point. the libel pro-
ceedings were brought in the fedora!
courts and on the legality OF these
actions depended the chief conten-
tons of the defendants counsel.
The governments brief in the case
was argued by Attorney General
Wiekersham. James c. Reynolds and
Stuart Mcnamara.
The brief argued in support of the
governments position that the indict-
ment against the Press Publishing
Company should not have been
