WILL FIGHT WEBSTER
Conley to Go on for Ten Bound Bout
With Webster Later in the Month

The differences between Frank Con-
ley, the Kenosha fighter and Danny
Webster, were patched up on Friday
and as result Webster and Conley
will meet for limited round bout lat
er in the month. The bout. will have
no championship significance IS it is
to be go of but ten rounds and it
will be put on as one of the bouts at
show to be given by James j. JEFF
fries. Conley is greatly disappointed
in the failure to get the forty five
round fight with Webster, but it is
thought that the Kenosha boy will dis
pose of Webster in less than ten
rounds SO as to leave no doubt as to
who is the master between the two.

Kenosha Camp of YeOmen
Have Biggest Time in the
History of Their Camp
NATIONAL OFFICERS ARE HERE

The Kenosha Camp of the Yeomen
Of America had the greatest time in
the history of the order in Kenosha at
Castle Hall on Thursday evening when
a class of fifty new members was
initiated into the mysteries of the
order and many of the most prominent
officials of the Grand Lodge of the
order came to Kenosha to aid in the
work of initiating the class and take
part in the festivities which followed.
For some time a membership contest
has been on among the Yeomen and
the celebration on Thursday evening
marked the close of this contest.
Prominent among the visiting Yeo-
men were National Vice President Geo.
Johnson of Aurora, ILL.,, National Secre-
tary W. 0. Guyton of Springfield, and
the famous Aurora drill team. Large
delegations came from Springfield, Ill.
and Milwaukee.
The work of initiating the large
class of candidates was under the di-
rection of President w. F. UT of the
local camp and he was assisted by
the national officials and the members
of the Aurora drill team.
Following the initiation there was a
luncheon at which covers were laid. for
two hundred. Following the luncheon
there were short addresse by the ma
tional vice President and secretary and
by members of the local camp. The
prizes in the membership contest were
awarded by President UT to J. Dove,
Mrs. Blondin, Mrs. Hall and George B.
McCarron.
After the presentation of the prizes
the floor was cleared and the informal
dance which continued until early
morning was inaugurated.
The gathering was from every stand
point the most successful gathering of
Yeomen ever held in Southern Wiscon-
sim: The local camp is rapidly be-
coming one of the largest fraternal
organizations in Kenosha. It now has
membership Of more than 25O and
the enthusiasm of the members gives
assurance that this will be increased
to more than 300 before the end of
the present year.
The visiting Yeomen spent the night
in Kenosha and left for their homes
this morning.

FIRST DINNER IS NEXT WEEK
Members of the Keuosha Industrial
Association Will Have George Viii
liam Bruce of Milwaukee as the First
After Dinner Speaker.

At the meeting of the Kenosha In.
dustrial Association held on Thursday
evening the special committee of the
association sent to Chicago to look
over the plants of the z. A. L. Motor
Car Company and the Crown Novelty
Company made a very favorable report
and as a result of the report the as
ISOLATION directors have made a propo-
sition to the Fla. L. Company. The
company had asked that the associa.
ton give it $1,000 and land for a
plant with the understanding that all
the money was to be used for the
building Of the factory and with the
further consideration that the plant
was not to pass out of the hands of
the association for five years. The
association after hearing the report OF
the committee in which it was shown
that the company employed at the
present time 300 men decided to offer
the company land for site and to
pay the moving expenses attending the
removal of the plant from Chicago to
Kenosha. It is not known whether
or not the managers of the company
will accept this offer. The Crown
Novelty Company visited by the com.
mittee was found to employ $50 men
and 10 women. This company has
asked that the association give it a
plant with $4,000 feet of floor space.
1t. asks for no money. This PROPOSE
ton was taken under advisement by
the association and some proposition
to this company will probably be
authorized at the next meeting of the
association. The report of the com
mittee indicated that both Of the com
panies were on solid financial basis
and there is every reason to believe
that should they locate in Kenosha
they would become permanent add
tions to the industrial life of the city
The association at the meeting on
Thursday evening made arrangements
for the first Of series of dinners to
be given to the business men of the
city. This first dinner will take place
at K. c. Hall on Thursday, April 81,
and covers will be laid for $50 guests.
The dinner will be served by L. G.
King. Following the dinner there
will be an address by William George
Bruce, the secretary Of the Merchants

known in Wisconsin and he has been
leader in movements to build up
Milwaukee and the state. 1t is plan.

With Little Damage Resulting

-
With Little Damage Resulting
The fire department of the city had
two calls on Sunday morning. The
first came just after seven clock when
the department was called to the
home of Hans Hansen, 800 Elizabeth
street. The fire resulted from the ex-
plosion of a gasoline stove. Mrs
Hansen had discovered a leak in the
reservoir Of the stove and had attempt
ed to throw it into the kitchen sink
when the explosion took place. She
escaped without injury, but the result
ing fire did damage to the house to
the amount of $50. The house was
owned by Henry J. Hastings.
The west side fremen were called to
the home of George Wennig, 514 Pom
eroy street just before noon Sunday
An over heated stove pipe was the
cause of the call and the blaze was
extinguished without damage

The Farmers Educational Co-opera-
tive Union of America, an organiza-
ton Of farmers embracing the southern
states on practically the same plan as
the American Society of Equity COW
ers the northern states, is arranging
for the first and most gigantic national
mass convention of productive workers
ever held in the world. Farmers and
laborers of all kinds, clerks and stores
and Offices, workers in mines, factories
and forests, mechanics, ETC., are all in
vited to join in this convention. 1t

A program unprecedented in interest
and vitality is being arranged. Speak
ers and authorities of national promi-
nence without reference to political
utilization, will be present.
Says President Bennett:
"Throughout the current session Of
congress, the Farmers Union has. main
tanned legislative bureau at Wash
ington. This bureau is preparing a
report on which the statutes Of the
legislation demanded and needed by
the American farmer will be probably
set forth. The reading Of this re-
port will be an interesting phase of
the conference.
CAT no previous time in the history
of the nation, has the farmer been
the object of more solicitude to
thoughtful public men and to the pub
JIG at large, From congress, from
every newspaper forum, from every
stump and rostrum and forum, goes
up the cry Back to the Land.
Expert and conscientious students
of economies are warning us that un
less the lot of the farmer is improved,
unless more Of his number are kept
on the farm, we shall shortly be de-
pending upon foreign nations for a
portion of our. food.
"Tbc farmer is the keynote of
America S prosperity, the bulwark Of
its commercial prestige abroad, the
very heartbeat of our future. destiny
at homo and in the fierce competition
of civilization.
cit is at this moment, when ma
tional voices usually quiet are clamor-
ing for more studious attention and
tribute to the farmer, when every fec
tor in our political and economic sys-
tenn regards with misgivings and posi-
tive fear the depopulation of the
country and the encroachment of in
dustrial crises and chaos in the cities,
that / invite the members of the
Farmers Union, the farmers general
ly of America, to join hands and brain
and heart in a counsel which shall
thresh out issues close to the life of
the nation
1.-The time is propitious, the neces-
sity is urgent for closer and more
fraternal relations between the men
upon whose shoulder rests the present
and the future America.
CAT the bottom our interests are
Identical. At bottom our interests
arc the interests of every man, woman
and child in America, now living or
yet to be born.
"Proper cooperation will make this
conference the most momentous and
constructive of it's kind in the
eountry's history, should like
every member of the Farmers Union
and every other agricultural organiza-
ton, and others expecting to be pres
ent, to notify me-"
