WARNS CORPORATIONS
Collector Finls Calls Attention to the
Law

Corporations who fail to comply with
the provisions of the federal law re
quiring reports on their incomes by
March / will be subject to a~penalty
of $1,000 to $4,000.
In calling attention to the law Col
lector Henry Fink of the internal rev.
enue service said:
Some corporations appear to be Ia
boring under the erroneous impression
that they must defer rendering their
report of income, under the law of
August 3, 1909, until the supreme court
of the United States has passed upon
the validity of the law. The law pro-
vides that the return of net income
must be made on or before March l,
1910, and failure to do so subjects the
dellnquents to the penalty provided in
paragraph of section SO of the law,
which reads as follows:
IF any of the corporations, joint
STOCK companies or associations, or IN
surance companies aforesaid shall re-
fuse, or neglect to make a return at the
time, or times, hereinbefore specified in
each year, or shall render false or
fraudulent return, such corporation,
joint stock company or association, or
insurance company shall be liable to a
penalty of not less than $1,000, and not
exceeding $4,000.
" Every corporation, joint stock com
pany, or association, or insurance com
pany is required to make a return
whether it has net income to report
or NOT

RAMBLER FAvoRs NEWSPAPERS

Thomas B. Jeffrey & Company, max
ers of the New Rambler automobile
have paid an unusual tribute to news
paper advertising in devising Their
sales plans for the coming year.
1t was formerly the custom of auto.
mobile manufacturers to devote the
greater portion of their advertising ap.
preparations to the purchase of space
in what are known as the standard
magazines, the weeklies and the trade
publications.
During the past two years Thomas B.
Jeffrey & Company have, through co.
operation with their dealers, carried
advertising in approximately three
hundred daily and weekly newspaper
throughout the United States.
Credit is partly given to these daily
and weekly newspapers for the large
increase in the sales of the New Ramb.
Ter during this period.
The sales record for this year to date
shows sales in excess of three times
the gross amount one year ago, while
the sales at that time were twice a,
great as during the year previous.

ASKS AN ACCOUNTING.
Captain s. G.. Cameron Asks State
Board to Look For Clothing of Buer

Acting through the county clerk, R.
III. Jones, Captain B. J. Cameron has
asked the Wisconsin State Board of
Control to make an investigation into
the alleged disappearance of personal
property which belonged to Andrew
Buer, a former member Of the Keno
sha Life Saving Crew, Who died re-
Gently in the state hospital for the
insane in Racine county. In his com
plant. to the state board which was
forwarded this morning the former
leader of the life saving crew declares
that he wants an accounting for. GER
tain personal property which Buer had
during the time that he was held as
a patient at the state hospital for the
insane at Mendoza and to this end he
has asked that the board of control
demand an accounting from Charles
Gorst, the superintendent of the Men
dota institution.
1t is alleged by Captain Cameron
that after Buer was sent to Mendoza
he sent to that institution large
amount of clothing to be worn by the
unfortunate man and that a proper re
ceipt for this clothing was received by
the county clerk from the superinten-
dent of the institution.
/
In the bills rendered against the
county of Kenosha by the Mendoza
institution the county is charged with
clothing for Buer at the usual rate and
| this amount has been paid. It is also
claimed that Buer had watch but it
/ is not known whether or not that was
taken to Mendoza.
/ Considerable has been said in regard
to the Buer case and it is probable
THAT the investigation by the state
board will set at rest the various
claims that have been made.
/ When in doubt try tee want ads.

One of the signs that the plans for
no license campaign have not been
abandoned is the awakening among the
members of the old line prohibition
party. This party has cut no figure in
local campaigns for many years, but it
has retained vitality enough to cast in
the neighborhood of 200 votes in gen
eral elections and if an earnest effort
is to be made to strengthen the party
organization it will have to be taken
account of by the politicians who have
been lining up every voter in the city
according to his probable stand on this
license question.

WOMAN GOES TO JAIL
Mrs. Kate Tarbuck is Fined 5000 and
Costs on Plea of Guilty

Mrs. Kate Tarbuck is Fined 5000 and
Costs on Plea of Guilty
In the municipal court on Friday af-
ternoon Judge c. E. Randall sentenced
Mrs. Kate Tarbuck of Milwaukee, who
had pleaded guilty" to a serious sta
tutory offense, to pay fine of 5000
and the costs of the action and in
default of the payment of the fine and
costs she viii go to jail for term of
thirty days. The woman has been re-
conciied to her husband and it is not
improbable that he will provide for
the payment of the fine and secure her
release. The woman has promised to
return to her home and for this reason
the court gave her the highest sentence
under law. Tony Narkwitch who was
arrested with the woman also entered
plea of guilty and was sentenced to
term of one year in the state prison
at Waupun. He will probably be tax
en- to prison'on Monday. On trial he
declared that he had not sought the
woman to leave her home, but that the
two met on railway car when she
was on her way to Kenosha

DECLARE 3,PER CENT DIVIDEND
Officials Of the Company Are Reelected
for the Coming Year and the Num-
Der of Subscribers Passes the Two
Thousand Mark.

At the annual meeting of the Keno
sha Home Telephone Company held at
the office of the president, James Cav
anagh, on Thursday afternoon the
stockholders Of the company voted to
take immediate steps for the better
ment of the service of the company in
Kenosha and to this end an appropria-
tion Of $4,000 was made for the I'm
mediate building of new cables and
other improvements urged by the gen
eral' manager of the company. This
cable work will be largely on the north
and west sides of the city and in those
sections many of the overhead wires
will be placed in cables before the close
Of the present year. In the past two
years the damage done to the lines by
storms in those sections of the city has
ut times badly interfered with the
service and it is the intention of the
company to cable all wires in the city
at the earliest possible moment in order
to prevent a repetition of these trou-
bIes.
The annual reports of the officers of
the company showed that the business
had rapid growth during the past
year and the company has now passed
the two thousand mark in the number
of subscribers. The report of resi-
dent manager G. L. Miller showed that
there were just POOP telephone stations
in the city and the surrounding dis
trict directly under the control of the
company.
The company voted to declare an
annual dividend of three per cent. This
is the third dividend paid by the com
pany since it's organization in October
1905.
The first dividend paid was one per
cent dividend and the second three per
cent making a total of seven per cent
that the stockholders of the company
have received on their money in the
past four years. This of course does
not represent the gross profits of the
company as large amounts have been
expended in extending the lines from
time to time and this has naturally cut
down the amount to be set aside for
the time that the annual melon is cut.
The various reports showed that the
company has prospered under the man
agement of G. l.. Miller and he was re-
tanned in office.
The following officers of the corpora
tion were elected for the new year:
President-James Cavanagh.
Vice President-Alonzo Burt of Mil
waukee.
Secretary-John M. Kehlor.
Treasurer-C, G. Brown.
Executive Committee-James -Cava-
nagh, Alonzo Burt, Henry B. Robinson.
General Manager-H. 0. Seymour of
Milwaukee.
Resident Manager-C. L. Miller.
Auditor-O. B. Koepke of Milwaukee.
Directors-Charles c. Brown, Frank
Slosson, Charles T. Jeffery, John M.
Kehlor, Henry B. Robinson, James Cav
anagh, of Kenosha, and Alonzo Burt and
H. O. Seymour of Milwaukee.
