are claiming state aid and a portion of
the state taxes paid by this county is
set aside annually for aid in building
highways and if the Kenosha county
people do not take advantage of the
offer Of the state the money will be
expended in other counties where the
property owners are more enterprising
There seems to be little interest tax

Of the county, but owners of summer
resorts at the various lakes are seek
ing to stir up some interest and it is
possible that these men will be able
to get the town officials of the western
towns to join with the men in Bristol
and Pleasant Prairie The roads in
the town of Somers are open to great
deal of criticism and it is thought that
the progressive board Of that town will

PLEASANT PRAIRIE TAKES LEAD
Summer Resort Owners Seek to Stir
Up Interest in Western Towns and
Entire County May be Organized
This Year.

Following the suggestions made by
the Wisconsin State Highway Commits
sion farmers residing in the towns of
Pleasant Prairie and Bristol are lay
ganization which will have for it's pur-
pose the improvement Of the roads of
these two towns and it is the ultimate
plan Of the promoters of the organiza-
tion to extend it to every town in
the county and ito seek the cooperation
of the city in getting the roads lead
ing to and from Kenosha in better con
dition. In the last few weeks the
county has been flooded with literature
from the state highway commission
and the farmers have decided that Ke-
noSha county can get lot of assis-
lance from the state in the matter Of
building roads. The town of Pleas
ant Prairie has already done lot of
work along the lines outlined by the
state and it is expected that the peo-
pie of this town will take the lead in
the formation of the new organization.
1t is planned to have maps of the
county made showing the condition of
the roads at the present time and to
suggest certain roads for improvement.
The matter has been laid before the
county board at former sessions and it
is expected that every member of the
board as we'll as the town officials of
every town in the county will be asked
to take special interest in the propos-
ed organization. It is possible that
the association when formed will be
able to secure appropriations from the
towns with which engineers may be en-
pIoyed and in this manner plan made
for future improvement of the roads.
The appropriations made by the varl-
GUS towns for road work are not large
but it is thought that if this money
was Systematically expended that in a
short time the roads of the county
would be greatly improved. Two years
ago this fall the members of the county
board had plan for road building in
the county prepared, but at that time
it was not deemed advisable to en-
ploy highway inspector and the mat
ter was dropped. This plan is now
on file at the Office of the county clerk
and it will undoubtedly be helpful to
the new association in getting the work
started. Other counties in the state

AFTER FROST LINE HND PRINCE DEAD ASKS THEIR ARREST NOW BADLY MIXED
Chaos Surrounds Political
Conditions in State in Re-
gard to Nominations
GOVERNOR PUZZLES FRIENDS

If the talk heard among politicians
Of the state is to be accepted as in
dicative of the real situation it would
look as though conditions were rather
chaotic at the present time. Rumors
are flying about, but, as matter of
fact, there is very little on which to
base the greater part of them and at
the best the foundation is fragile.
The latest story is that friends of
Gov. Davidson will try to bring him
out as a candidate for United States
senator, since he has refused to become
candidate for governor. The COVER
nor himself will not discuss either sub.
ject. This, however, does not prevent
his being continually focused as the
center of first one story and then an
other. While he will not publicly
state that he will not be candidate
for governor in conversation with per-
sonal friends Gov. Davidson has said
that he would not come into the race.
This was disappointment to an ele-
ment which for not purely unselfsh
reasons, had hoped to get him to
stand for a denomination.
The story that the governor might
be candidate for senator came as
one of the results of the conference
held recently by local and state
politicians. So far no one will saw
that this plan is being considered, but
it is admitted that such suggestion
has been made. 1t seems very doubtful
however, if Gov. Davidson will fall in
with this plan any more than he did
the one to bring him out as a candi-
date for governor. So far, it is said
he looks upon it with good humored
tolerance.
Another report that was started on
Thursday was that Dr. J. M. Beffel of
Milwaukee might be a gubernatorial
candidate. The report received, a wet
blanket when Dr. Beffel was interview
ed on the subject. The doctor said
that he had been approached on the
subject, but had given it little atten-
tion, as he was busy attending to his
practice.

Pioneer Resident of City and
County Died Friday After
a Long Illness
WAS WIDELY KNOWN IN CITY

Martin Burke, aged sc years, one of
the oldest and best known of the Irish
settlers of Kenosha county, died at the
home of Justice of the Peace George
b. McCarron on Park street just be-
fore four O'Clock Friday afternoon.
Death resulted from tumor from which
Mr.. Burke had, been suffering for some
time. He had been confined to his
bed for many weeks and his death was
not unexpected.
Martin Burke was born in Ireland on
St. John s day in 1924. Long before
the breaking out Of the Civil war he
came to America and settled on a
farm near the village of Silver Lake.
He resided there until twenty-three
years ago when with his wife he came
to Kenosha to make his home. Mrs.
Burke died twelve years ago and since
that time Mr. Burke had made his home
with Justice McCarron, one of his near
est friends.
The deceased was the owner of con
siderable real estate in Kenosha and
he was known as a promoter Of public
improvements. Long after he had
passed his SOth birthday he. started out
to secure the paving Of Park street
and it was largely through his efforts
that the council finally let the contract
for the paving Of the street. He had
tplanned to seek the paving of Pleas
ant street this year, but the work will
have to be taken up by another.
He IS survived by seyerai nephews
and nieces, but there are no members
of his own family surviving him.

some trace of band of bold lumber
thieves who have been Systematically
robbing the contractors in charge of
repairs at the summer home for child
rem just south of Kemper Hall. Of
fcers have not been able to get track
of the thieves notwithstanding the fact
that the entrances to the home have
been watched. It was discovered last

STATE FINANCES ARE Low

The general state fund now contains
81. 1866, 2S5.27, while since March 2 the
disbursements have been the difference
between that sum and $2,101, 983.6S.
There will be some extra revenue, and
$750,000 of last months expense was
for special appropriations, but it is an
nounced that the state balance will be
low before the August taxes are receiv-
ed, at which time $1,600,00O will be
received from railways and $4,000
from street railways. 1t may become
necessary to draw on the state doposi-
tories.

KLEIsT CLAIMS RESIDENCE
Assessor States That His Family
Now Living in Kenosha

Assessor M. P. Kleist whose right
to sit as a member of the board of
assessment was questioned has notified
the city attorney that his family has
returned from the farm in Walworth
county and that they will make their
home in Kenosha in the future This
it is claimed removes all question of
his right to act as an assessor for the
city. Mr.. Kleist in discussing the
matter stated that he and his family
simply went to the farm to plant it
and then returned to their old home
in Kenosha and that they have no in
tention of leaving the city to make
their permanent home on the farm.

A portion of the breakwater has been
repaired through the energy and fore
sight of a private citizen, but unless
the bulk of the shore protection is to
be permitted to go to destruction alto
gether extensive repairs will have to
be made this summer The money for
these breakwater repairs has been paid
in by the taxpayers time and again.
1t is the regular thing for the finance
committee when making up the budget
for the year to insert an item calling
for few thousand dollars for the re
pair of the breakwaters, but the money
is seldom used for the purposes for
which it was raised and is regularly
transferred at the end Of the year to
help out some fund that is overdrawn.
A little Of this tax went where it was
intended to 60 last year, but the
amount actually expended on The break
waters is but small proportion of the
sums paid in for that purpose. When
the break in the shore protection comes
as it will shortly now ard the immedi-
ate expenditure Of a large sum Of
money is necessary it will be easier to
figure what this neglect has cost the
Taxpayers than it is at present.

Parole Agent seibel of Waupun Prison
Here Looking After Kenosha Men

Parole Agent Seibel of Waupun Prison
Here Looking After Kenosha Men
Joseph M. Seibel, parole agent for
the state prison at Waupun was in Ke-
nosha Friday evening looking after the
list of Kenosha men who are now on
parole from the state prison. There
are half dozen paroled men now
living in Kenosha and the agent of
the prison makes call on them once
each month. In speaking of the Ke
nosha men Agent Seibel said: q am
very well satisfied with the way that
my wards are conducting themselves in
Kenosha, but one of the men needed
looking after so | came down to tell
him that if he didn t live up to the
provisions of his trust better he would
have to go back to prison and serve
out his term. The Kenosha men at the
state prison are all doing well and
none of them has been placed in the
second grade of prisoners. In fact
we oniy have five men in the second
grade at this time. Mr. Seibel stat
ed that no Kenosha prisoners had been
paroled in the past few weeks and that
he had not heard of any of them seek
ing release under the parole law.

Theatrical Man Whc Was in
Kenosha Wednesday Found
Dead in Elgin Hotel
CORONER LOOKS into CASE

Mystery shrouds the death of C. S.
Rao reputed East Indian prince of
great wealth who was found lifeless in
his room at the Kelly hotel in Elgin
Friday morning. Whether the man
died a natural death, committed
suicide, or was slain, is a ques
ton that Lieut.. Freeman of the Ell
gin police and Coroner Eugene FL, Nor
ton say they are unable to answer. The
official inquiry has been extended to
Chicago. The inquest will be held
this afternoon Rao had been in Keno
sha until last Wednesday morning
when he left here for Elgin
Rao. who had BEEN in this country
only since last March, was the angel -
and nominal manager of the Leon Nor
ris Society circus, a theatrical outfit
that was got together in Chicago and
has been playing IN small cities in In
diana, Wisconsin, and Illinois during
the last few weeks.
Papers found among Rao s effects
showed he had paid all the bills of the
company, including the salaries of the
actors. There were papers that seem
ed also to show that the company had
been losing venture since it's outset
Leon Morris of Chicago was the bust
ness associate of Rao. 1t was he who
found the latter's body and he inform
ed the coroner that he had given Rao
81 to come to Chicago last Thursday
to get more money for the show and
that when he found Rao he took the 81
from his pocket and gave it to Mrs
Morris, whom he sent to Chicago in
stead of Rao.
Mrs. Morris hurried to Chicago yes
terday morning. She went to Hunt s
hotel on Dearborn street, where she
her husband, and Rao had stopped be,
fore they went out on the road. She
went to see James Connors, proprietor
Of the Saratoga poolroom, a friend and
then returned to Elgin to join her hus-
| band.
Rao came to Chicago a/little more
| than two months ago from San Francis
co. He said he had left India about
nine months ago with companion and
q retinue of servants The companion.
he said, he left in Japan. The serv-
ants he found more of burden>~than
of value, he said, and sent them back
home, coming himself to the United
States to study the people and gain
an American education. Arriving in
Chicago we'll supplied with money and
etters of credit, he went to the Sara
toga hotel.
"He said he had plenty of money
and was heir to a rich estate and title
now held by his uncle in Bombay, y
said Connors Friday HE never said
what his uncle s name is. He had let
ters of credit from Thomas Cook &
Son and got cash on them. [ under
stand that when he was found today
he had neither letters of credit nor
money and this can't understand.
There's something queer about it. I
can't figure why he should commit sui
eide. l don t think he had any love
affair or was mixed up with women
in any way"

JUHRE GIVEN DECISION
Kenosha Fight Fans Disguised Over
Outcome Of Bout in Racine

Charley Juhre, the much topted Ra-
cine fighter, met William Ellison of
Kenosha in a six-round bout at the
windup of show given by the Racine
Athletic Club in that city last night
and the Racine man was given the de-
cision much to the digust of the Ke-
nosha fans, seventy-fve in number who
went up to witness the fight. These
fans claim that the Kenosha fighter
put it all over Juhre and that the de-
ciaion Of the box Office" where the
money was distributed was a clear case
of robbery Of the Kenosha fighter.
This is the first battle for Ellison for
some time and he showed up in great
shape Ellison and Juhre were sched-
ulel to 60 for eight rounds, but the
fight was cut down to six rounds on
account of the small attendance at the
fight.

MAY FIND WAY TO KENOSHA
Company Seeking to Get Chance
to Compete for Suburban Bust
ness out of Chicago VIII Buy
Electric Lines.

Reports from Highwood, ILL.,, where
the general Offices of the Chicago, Mil
Waukee Electric Railway company are
located are to the effect that the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & st. Paul Railway
company is endeavoring to lease the
west line of~the Chicago Milwaukee
road and which was promoted by A..
c. Frost. The line known as the
F'west line" of the Chicago Milwau-
kee road is about a mile and half
west of Waukegan and is the direct
line between Evanston and Milwaukee.
Some few years ago it was rumored
that the officials Of the st. Paul road
were endeavoring to purchase a pOr-
tion of the right Of way held by the
Chicago Milwaukee electric line. This
report was current when the Chicago
& Northwestern road was building the
air line from Chicago to Milwaukee
and about five miles west of the main
line Shortly afterward the Chicago
Milwaukee company went into the
hands of receivers.
The reports coming from Highwood
snd Waukegan are to the effect that
the officials Of the st. Paul road are
endeavoring to arrange for the inva-
sion of the lake shore cities from
Evanston to Racine and making an ac-
tive bid for traffic and freight in Fort
Sheridan and the United States naval
training station. The Northwestern
road now controls all of this traffic as
well as all traffic from Chicago to Ke-
nosha. 1t is claimed that in order to
do this the st. Paul road must arrange
either by purchase or lease of the
"'west line" of the Chicago Milwaukee
Electric Railroad company.
Alterations are now going on in the
track system of the electric road at
HighwoOd and it is claimed that the
electric road is making arrangements
to lay a switch track for the ST. Paul
road which will connect with the cleo
trio road at Highwood. The St. Paul
road could then operate on electric line
tracks from Rondout to a point west
of Lake Bluff and there connect with
the Ewest side line of the Chicago
Milwaukee electric line. BY making
deal with the Chicago milwaukee
electric the st. Paul road would gain
the following great advantages:
l. Lessened time to Milwaukee from
Chicago on trip concerning which the
road is engaged in the hottest kind of
competition with the Northwestern
,. Suburban competition with the
Northwestern providing that the road
would operate passenger cars locally.
B Entrance to Waukegan to all in
tents, because the west side line
skins the city on the western part.
A. Lessened schedule probably to
st. Paul and the northwest, which is
also a matter of competition with the
Northwestern.
The details of the st. Paul, Chicago
4 Milwaukee plans are unknown. 1t
may be that the switch tracks now be-
ing built at Highwood are for the Fort
Sheridan reservation tracks that the
st. Paul is said to seek and that the
rumored deal also includes an operation
right for the ST. Paul from Lake Bluff
Junction to Truesdel.
1t may also be that the st. Paul plans
a connecting track, all new, from its
road out in the county to Highwood
instead of the route from Rondout out
lined.
