AIDS IN GREAT WORK
Clerk of Municipal Court to
Prepare Statistics of Child
Criminals in County
WOULD SECURE LEGISLATION

Clerk of the Municipal Court James
E. Tully is to take part in preparing
statistics to be presented to the state
legislature at it's next session by which
an effort will be made to show the legis-
lature that it is necessary to pass some
new laws in regard to the care of jul
venile criminals Marion g. Ogden
of Milwaukee has taken up this work
and it is planned to get statistics from
every county in the state to show the
need of better arrangements for the
care of these juvenile offenders.
Miss Ogden in her effort to secure
this legislation has decided to take the
records of every Juvenile court in the
state and she will show to the Iegis-
lators the extent of juvenile crime in
the state. The statistics being prepared
by Clerk Tully will show just how
many children under the age of sixteen
years have been arrested since the
court was organized and the disposition
made of each of these cases. It seeks
to show how many of these child of
tenders are held in Jail for night
and if they are forced to mingle with
hardened criminals.
The state wide movement started by
the Milwaukee woman will seek to have
better care thrown about these young
offenders. Wisconsin is far behind
the other states of the union in this
line of work and in many counties not
withstanding the demands of the state
board of control young offenders are
forced to remain in Jail with men old
in crime. The development of juve-
nile courts in many of the counties and
the naming of probation officers has
done much to better these conditions,
but there is need felt of more string
ent regulation of the officials in the
handling of such offenders.

WILL MAKE ARRESTS
Northwestern Objects to Use of Va
cant Property as Public Dump

The Northwestern Railway Company
has decided that the vacant property
owned by the company in Kenosha shall
no longer be converted into public
dumping grounds and on Tuesday Agent
Parr of the company sent an official
notice to the chief of police notifying
him that all -foremen in the employ of
the company in Kenosha have been
ordered to clean up these pieces of
property and that in the future the
company would demand the arrest of
every trespaaser on the property of
the company who used it as a dumping
ground for garbage or other refuse.
In some places these vacant lots were
menace to health and some days ago
the police served notice on the agent
of the company that the lots must be
cleaned up. A big gang Of men was
put to work on Thursday and all of the
refuse that could be located was buried
and notices posted The foremen have
been notified to keep close watch on
these lots and report at once the names
of any people who attempt to use them
for dumping ground and the agent
for the company will immediately make
complaints for the arrest of the guilty
parties The head officials of the COM
pany have notified the local foremen
that these lots must be kept clean.
The lack of a public dumping ground
is being badly felt in Kenosha and it
is probable that the city council at an
early session will take up this matter
and make some provision for a dumping
ground.
The rapid filing up Of the lake front
has made it all but impossible to find
a dumping ground in that part of the
city and it is probable that the coun-
Gil will decide to purchase an acre Of
ground just outside the limits of the
city for this purpose.

GETS COPY OF ENGROSSED LAW
Law as Printed Had Strange Omission
Which Raised a Question as to its
Interpretation but Real Copy is
Plain


city Attorney Calvin Stewart has
received from the secretary of state at
Madison an engrossed copy of Chapter
437 of the Laws of 1909 on which he
was recently asked by the city coun
Gil to render an opinion. The de-
mand was made ON account of the fact
that the right of Alderman George Hig
ley to sit as member of the board
of water commissioners had been ques-
toned under this statute and the deci-
sion Of the attorney for the city is
that Higley could not have been le-
gally elected. to the office of commits
sioner. The members of the commits
sion acting on the advice of their at
orney have declined already to recog-
nize Alderman Higley as a member of
the commission.
At the time the matter was laid be-
fore the council Attorney Stewart i'm
mediately looked into the law as it
was published in the bound volumes
sent out by the state and it is found
that there is an error in publication,
This error consisted in the omission Of
the words Ecommon council" and this
left the law as practically meaning
less so far as the point in question
was concerned The receipt of the
engrossed copy of the law shows this
omission and after the engrossed copy
had been looked over by Attorney
Stewart he declared that the other
members of the water commission were
correct in their claim that Higley could
not be a legal member of the com
mission. The law as engrossed by the
secretary Of state reads as follows:
"No member of any city council,
town, village or county board shall dur
ing the term for which he is elected
be appointed or elected to any office
or position which has been created by,
or the election or appointment to
which is vested in such city council,
or such town, village or county board. -
The strict reading of the law will
probably force not only Alderman Hig-
ley but also Poormaster N. j. Werner
out of Office unless these men should
decide to resign from the, council
and should they take such action they
could be elected to the positions which
they now hold. 1t is not held that the
law applies to City Engineer Moth who
holds the position of superintendent of
the Kenosha Water Company as he is
not member of the common council
1t was generally believed that the
law made it impossible for any official
of the city to hold two offices, but
this is not the fact 1t is expected
that the city attorney will give his
opinion on the law to the council at
its next regular meeting and the coun-
Gil may decide to elect water com
missioner at that time. The alder
man from the Fourth ward has not as
yet made any statement as to the view
he will take of the law or of his in
tended actions.

WILL SEEK OFFICE
Philip Hartman, Jr., Announ-
ces Candidacy for Go. Treas.
on Republican Ticket
-T'"'M.S IN THE EIF:L!ln,

The Office of county treasurer prom
Uses to be as much sought after this
year as the office of sheriff and fol
lowing the announcement of the candi-
dacy Of A. T. Dorothy and Raymond
Powell Of Pleasant Prairie for the nomi-
nation announcement is made today
that Philip Hartman, Jr., will seek the
Republican nomination for the office
The announcement of Mr.. Hartman is a
formal one and it is understood that he
is the race to stay. Mr.. Powell has
also formally announced his candidacy
and the friends of Mr.. Dorothy are
strongly urging him to make formal
announcement before the preliminary
campaign is further advanced.
Philip Hartman, Jr., is one of the
best known of the young men of the
city and he is also widely known
throughout the county. He has been
associated with his father in the res
taurant business for. the past fifteen
years and in that time the restaurant
has been decidedly popular place for
the men of the county who have bust
ness in the county seat. Mr.. Hartman
was born and raised in Kenosha ,edu-
Gated in the Kenosha schools and has
spent his entire life here. He has
never been a candidate for public
office of any sort.
1t is understood that his campaign
for the nomination will be pushed with
vigor in al parts of the county and
that petitions for his nomination will
be taken out just as soon as the pri-
mary law permits.
The political pot continues to sim
mer merrily and it is announced that
Russell H. Jones, county clerk; P. c..
Torrey, register of deeds, and Frank
Waldo. the clerk of the circuit court
will all be in the field for the re-nomina-
tion to the offices which they now hold
All of these officials are Republicans
and as yet no Republicans have come
out for either of the three offices.
The county offices were placed on a
straight salary basis at the last meet
ing of the county board and the elimi-
nation Of the fee system does not leave
these Offices as attractive as they were
under the old plan. However, it is
pretty certain that before the primary
election there will be plenty of can
didates in the field for all these offices.

MANY SAW THE COMET
Kenosha People Get First Unobstruct-

If there was anybody in Kenosha who
did not see the comet last night it
for it or because they did not know a
comet when they saw it. Halley's
comet sported in the western sky for
more than three hours last night just
after sun set and with a perfectly clear
sky it was plainly visible to the naked
eye. Hundreds of people lined the
sidewalks and not few of them ARM
ed themselves with field glasses in
order to get better view of the sky
tramp. The comet will continue to be
visible until the middle of June af-
ter which time it will start off on it's
seventy-fve year trip.

TRACED THROUGH HIS UNION
Accused EIan Was Former Bartender
in Chicago and Union Aids Of
ficers to Arrest Him at orlo, ILL.,,
on Tuesday.

The bartenders' union is law abid-
ing organization and it was largely
through the assistance of the union
men in Chicago that Frank Hoffman,
wanted here on a charge of stealing
Prince" the favorite driving horse
of Senator Isaac Stephenson now oc-
cupies cell in the Kenosha county
Jail.
Hoffman was brought back 10 Keno
sha at eight O'Clock Tuesday night
and on the way to Kenosha he told
Sheriff Gunter and Manager James P.
Torrey of the Stephenson farm the
whole story of the stealing of the
horse and made full confession of
his crime.
The bartenders of Chicago came into
the case on Tuesday morning. When
it was found that Hoffman had been
near the Stephenson farm on Saturday
night Sheriff Gurter began to make
search for him and finding that he had
at one time been a bartender in Chi
cOgo he went to one of the members
of the union and he looked up and
found that Hoffman had been living
on farm near Orlo. Sheriff Gunter
and Manager Torrey huTried to Orlo
and found Hoffman at work in the
yard back of the barn which held the
horse which had been stolen. Hoff-
man saw at once that there was no
chance for escape aLd he surrendered
himself to the officer and returned to
Kenosha without the red tape of ex-
tradition.
The theft of the horse had been
carefully planned by Hoffman. In
fact he had secured two days vaca-
ton from the farmer he was working
for and had drawn $40 as expense
money to come to Truesdell to get
the horse. Hoffman had worked at
the Stephenson farm for week in
April and had been sore over some
thing about the farm. He talked too
much in a saloon near TruesdelI and
this fact led to his capture He
reached Truesdell early Saturday even
ing and proceeded to spend good
part of his expense money in saloon
near there.
He left the saloon late in the even
ing with a declaration that he was go
ing to get square with the men at the
Stephenson farm and walked up the
railroad toward the farm. He de-
clared that he had no trouble getting
the horse out as the animal knew him.
He drove the horse straight from the
farm to Chicago and after feeding it
drove on to Orlo making that point at
three clock Sunday afternoon. In
twenty-seven hours the horse had been
driven more than 135 miles, but at
that it was in good condition when it
reached Orlo. Hoffman had given the
horse every possible care. It is GER
tain that there was no other person
connected with the theft of the horse
and that the plan to secure it was
made and carried out by Hoffman with
out assistance. At the Jail he de-
clared that he was ready to take his
medicine and it is probable that he
will be given an early trial.
District Attorney Baker is still in
Philadelphia and for this reason Hoff-
man will not be given a chance to
plead until he returns to Kenosha.
