Governor Appoints Milwau-
kee Man as Member of State
Railway Commission
TO SUCCEED PROF. B. H. MEYER

David Harlowe, traffic manager for
the Allis-C Chalmers company in Mil
waukee was appointed on Saturday by
Gov. McGovern to fill the unexpired
term of B. FL. Meyer on the state rail
road commission. He viii serve until
February, 1914, being the unexpired
term of Mr.. Meyer The vacancy was
caused by Mr.. Meyer being named by
President Taft as member of the
commerce commission.
Prior to 1898 Mr.. Harlowe was chief
clerk to the late Dwight w. Keyes,
then general freight agent of the Mil
waukce road. In 1898 he went to the
E. P. Allis company as traffic manager.
When the Allis company was merged
into the present AllisChalmers com
pany he retained his position.
This is not the first time Mr.. Har-
lowe was considered in connection with
a place on the railroad commission.
When the bill creating the commission
became a law Gov. La Toilette wished
to appoint Mr.. Harlowe as one of the
members. He declined the appoint
ment, however, preferring to remain
with the company.
It had been known for some time
among Gov. McGovern' s close friends
that Mr.. Harlowe would be appointed,
and it was agreed on all sides that
such an appointment would be a good
one on account OF Mr.. Harlowe' Is know
ledge of traffic matters.
For many years he has been promin-
ent in Masonic circles and an active
worker in the various bodies Of that
order. He is a thirty-third degree Ma
son. He also takes q live interest in
literary matters and has been mem
Der Of the advisory board Of the Liter
airy association of Wisconsin. He was
one Of the founders of the American
Numismatic association and has him
self collection of copper coins that
includes some rare specimens.
The appointments of Commissioner
Harlowe is of especial interest in Ken
osha on account of the fact that he will
be one of the men to pass on the Ken
osha Electric Railway company-Ken-
osha Gas and Electric company case.
It is expected that the new commission
will be organized within few days
and that the Kenosha case will be one
Of the first to be taken up after the
reorganization. Mr.. Harlowe is well
known to many Kenosha people and the
appointment is satisfactory to Kenosha
men connected with the great public
utility companies.

NO DEAD HEADS ON THIS LIST
County Board Makes Formal Applica-
ton for Training School, for Teachers
and Details Will be Worked Out at
Later Session.
sFrom SATURDAYS Daily

} Officials Of Kenosha county will have
no dead Head list for at the session
of the County Board on Friday after
noon resolution was passed demand
ing that the officers of the county col
lect all fees due to the county without
regard to the nature of the fee. The
officers of the county had asked for the
privilege of executing afidavits in con
nection with the appointment of their
own deputies but the board held that
these fees must be paid into the coun-
ty treasurer the same as any other fees.
1t was thought possible chat the board
would consent to remit the fees for
the acknowledgment of the pension
vouchers of the old soldiers but the
board unanimously decided that there
should be no deviation from the rule
This decision means that every affidavit
or acknowledgment taken by any of the
county officials must be paid for in ac
cordance with the legal schedule and
the officials must make complete reports
to the county board at each session Of
the amount of fees collected. It is
probable that this decision will result
in large increase in business for not
aries in the city as most of these off
cials are willing to shade the legal fees
a little and the people will seek to Sc
cure this work at the reduced rate.
The board at the session on Friday
afternoon passed resolution to ask the
State Superintendent Of Public Instruc-
tien for the location of a training
school for teachers in the county. The
details of the plan will probably not be
worked out until the meeting of the
board in next November but the appli-
cation signed by every member of the
board will be sent to Superintendent
Cary at once. The provision is that
the county of Kenosha is to furnish a
building and pay one-third of the cost
of the maintenance of the school with
the understanding that the remainder
of the cost Is to be paid by the state.
Kenosha county teachers have taken a
great deal of interest in this movement
and the State superintendent will prob
ably act favorably on the application.
1t is expected that the new school will
be opened for the use Of the teachers
by the vacation of 1912.
The salary Of the County superin-
tendent of Schools was fixed at 81 200
per year.

Kenosha Go. Farmers Make a
Loud Protest Against Test
ingCattle UnderNewLaW
CLAIM TESTS UNSATISFACTORY

Farmers in Kenosha county are max
ing decided protest against the oper-
alton of the new law providing for
the testing of cattle for tuberculosis
and it is probable that Kenosha county
farmers will send petition to the
legislature asking for the repeal of the
law providing for the test. The farm.
ers claim that the working of the law
is decidedly unsatisfactory and that it
is resulting in heavy losses to the
farmers. The law went into effect the
first of December and since that time
more than 200 head of cattle in Ken
osha county have been condemned as
tainted with tuberculosis and, have
been butchered by the state. The Ken
osha county farmers are not opposed to
the eradication of tuberculosis from
the herds but they declare that the test
does not produce this effect and that
the cattle most affected with the dis
ease will not respond to the test. One
Of the leading farmers of the county
made a test Of his own short time
ago. One of the regular examiners
was called in to test a heifer and he
found that she would not respond to
the tuberculin test. The farmer felt
certain that the animal was Fr0tten''
with tuberculosis and as soon as the
test had been completed he shipped
her to Milwaukee to be butchered He
followed up the animal and when she
was killed he found that her condition
was much worse than that of many of
the animals which had been ordered
killed by the state officials.
Many of the fine herds in the town
of Bristol have been tested during the
past week and from each herd from
two to ten cows have been taken.
In addition to the test demanded for
the sale of cows by Wisconsin the
farmers are also forced to submit to
test by the Illinois officials if they de-
sire to ship the milk from the herds
to Chicago. This is expensive to the
farmers as the Illinois officials insist
that the inspection be made by Illinois
officials and the farmer is forced to
pay for this service at a rate of twenty
dollars day. The farmers declare
that this cost of inspection is getting
50 great that all of the profits of the
dairy business are taken up by the
cost of the various inspections.
