NO OPPOSITION TIC STATE AID.
Highway Commission Refutes Stories
Which have Been Circulated.

The state highway commission at
Madison has received official reports
refuting the recent stories of opposi-
ton to the new state highway law ON
the part of boards of supervisors of
several counties in western Wiscon-
sin. 1t had been heralded that the
boards would refuse to comply. The
counties were Lacrosse. Monroe. Yer
non and Trempealeau.
that LaCross county not only met
the town appropriations equally, but
also appropriated $2.450 to make up
the states ope-third share of the
cost of onstruction-someth no
other county in the state has done.
Inc sentiment for good roads in that
county is declared to be as favorable
as IN any county in the state.
While the Monroe county board
passed a resolution condemning the
law. the board appropriated the coun-
tvs share of the cost of work in lay
ing out a system of highways, and
elected county highway commission
er. Vernon county took the same action
except that no resolution adverse to
the law was passed. Trempealeau also
complied with every provision and also
increased the salary of the county high
way commissioner from $500 to 5000.

Milwaukee Judge Looms ~
as Main Contender With
Judge Belden.
MIL AUkEE LAWYERS Selfish

Judge Warren D. Tarrant OF Mil
waukee, widely known among attor-
neys in Kenosha, has come out as an
active candidate for the office Of
Judge of the United States court from
the eastern district Of Wisconsin to
succeed the late Joseph V. Quarles and
it is declared that Judge Tarrant and
Ferdinand Geiger of Milwaukee will
be the leading opposition to Judge E.
B. Belden of this circuit in the race
for the appointment. President Taft,
on Wednesday met several delegations
urging the appointment of the two
Milwaukee men and at that time he
let it be understood that it was prob
able that the appointment would not
be made until some time in January.
The coming of Judge Tarrant into
the race is an unexpected comphca-
ton and it is declared that he Isl to
be given large support from, the mem
bers of the bar in Milwaukee. Mr..
Geiger is Democrat, but he has never
taken any active work in political life.
Milwaukee members of the bar and
Milwaukee politicians seem to be MAX
ing a studious effort to prevent the APP
pointment of Judge Belden and it
seems certain that they will unite en-
almost any candidate from Milwaukee
rather than to have the appointment
go out of that city. 1t was thought
for time that Guy D. Golf of Mil
yankee would be a leading candidate
but it is now declared that his aame
has practically been eliminated from
the lists and that it is not seriously
considered by President Taft
Few men have ever been urged for a
position with better recommendations
than Judge Belden. In fact the dis
trict outside of Milwaukee is prac.
tically united in support of the Racine
jurist. Hundreds of letters have been
sent to the president urging his ap-
@pointment but it is said that politicians
are not actively favoring Judge Bclden
and that these men prefer the appoint
ment of some one who has been more
active in politics The friends of
Judge Belden are urging his appoint
ment. by the president mostly because
he is a judge and not a politician
Judge Belden and his friends are still
very hopeful that the president will
see the value Of naming him for the
position.

Well Known Dentist Named
Eminent Commander of
the knights Templar.
KNIGHTS FEAST On VENISON
Annual Gathering Attended by Nearly
Every Member Of the Commandery
New Commander Has Been Active
Since It's Organization.

DR.. Edward +. Rowell was elected
eminent commander of Kenosha Com
mandery No. 80 of the Knights Temp
la at the annual meeting of the COM
mandery heldNat the Masonic Temple
on Wednesday evening. The election
proved a great drawing card for the
members of the commandery and near
ly every member was present. The
election of DR.. Rowell proved popu-
lar one as he has, been one of the most
faithful and efficient officials of the
commandery almost since it's organiza-
ton. He has filled every chair in the
ritualistic work of the order and has
been given high praise by the inspec-
tor general for his work. He was one
of the leading members of the drill
team of the Kenosha commandery
which took part in the competitions at
the triennial conclave in Chicago. He
is also an active booster of the Denver
club and it is thought that under his
leadership Kenosha will build up a
strong drill team to take part in the
great gathering to be held in the west
ern city in 1913.
The election of officers was made a
decidedly interesting event this year,
as just before the annual meeting was
held the members of the commandery
sat down to venison dinner. The
venison was furnished by j. M. Sturde-
want, Of Rhinelander, and the Kenosha
lodge of Ell1s showed fraternal spirit
by contributing the services of their
chef to have it cooked to turn.
The members of the commandery sat
down to dinner at seven CLOCK, with
covers laid for nearly a hundred guests.
1t was not only venison that was serv-
ed, as the dinner was one of the finest
course dinners ever served at the
temple. There was no speech making
after dinner, but the members enjoyed
an Informal smoker before they re-
tired to the lodge rooms for the annual
election. Outside the election of the
eminent commander the interest cen
tered in the election Of the captain
general. Bert S. Fowler, who has won
high praise for his work in this chair,
was elected to succeed himself and he
will continue to have charge of the
drill team of Kenosha Knights.
The full list of officers follows: Emf
nent commander, DR.. Edward F. Rowell;
generalissimo, W. j. Mainland; captain
general, Bert S. Fowler; prelate, NJ. R.
Warren; senior warden, H. 0. Whitbeck;
junior warden, Raymond j. Austin;
treasurer, William F. Fisher; recorder,
Samuel Isen; trustee for three years,
Dan 0. Head.
The annual installation of the Off
GERS of the commandery will take place
early in January and the event will be
made notable by the, presence OF many
visiting dignitaries of the order.

Secretary of Soldiers Relief
Commission to Succeed
Himself Today.
GOOD WORK BEING DONE
9uring the Past Year the Organization
Paid Out More Than $1,000 Of the
Money of the County in Relief to
Soldiers, Their Widows and Orphans.

County Judge George W. Taylor this
morning formally named Adolph J..
Burg to succeed himself as member
of the soldiers and sailors relief fund
commission of Kenosha county for
term of three years beginning with the
first of January. Mr.. Burg has been
member of the commission for the
past six years and for most of the
time he has served in the capacity of
secretary of the board and he has been
one of the most enthusiastic workers
In providing assistance for the old
soldiers and their widows and orphans.
The appointment of Mr.. Burg will
be followed with a reorganization of
the commission and it is expected that
G. II. Stemm will be continued in the
Office of chairman, Mr.. Burg as secre-
tary and A. E. Buckmaster as attorney
for the commission.
The commission which is organized
under the laws of the state expends
annually in the neighborhood of 1900
in the relief of old soldiers, their wi
dows and orphans. During the year
ending with the first of November the
total expenditures of the commission
were $1,61948. There were total
of one hundred and fifteen orders is
sued by the commission and for the
most party they were decidedly small.
Only two of them were for as large as
$50. The commission is most careful
in handling the relief funds and before
any appropriation is made every case
is investigated by at least two mem
.bers of the commission.
In the years that have passed since
the civil war many Of the old soldiers
and their families have been rendered
dependent. Few of these ever ask for
any aid from the regular charitable or
CARNATIONS of the city and the county
and their immediate wants are met by
small contributions made to them by
the relief commission. In some eases
these small appropriations are made
monthly. In other cases the commits
ssion simply helps out in times of es-
pecial need. The work of the commits
sion has been instrumental in prevent
ing many of these people from seeking
public charity. While strict record
Of the amounts paid out and the
people to whom they are paid is kept
by the commission this record is never
made public.
For the coming year the county has
appropriated q little over $1,000 for
the care Of the old soldiers and the
members of their families and to this
must be added the balance of nearly a
thousand dollars left from the funds
raised last year. The appointment of
Mr.. Burg to succeed himself as a mem
Der of the commission will be general
ly satisfactory to the members of the
Grand Army in Kenosha.

MUST HAVE LICENSE TAGS.
Peddlers VIII be Forced to Display
State License After January 1,

The new law, passed in 1911, re-
quires peddlers and hawkers to have
an official sign tackled to their wagon
or cart Foot peddlers must wear the
official state badge.
These signs and badges are supplied.
with the license by the state treasury
to all who make applica-
ton either direct or through special
agents of this department..
These signs and badges are supplied
for all licenses issued after July l.,
1911. Licenses issued prior to July i,
1911 cannot secure the sign or badge
until next year. All licenses should
be carried all of the time for protec-
ton, if for no other reason. The ped
der never knows when he will be call
ed upon for it and if he left it at home
it is no excuse.
1t takes about two weeks to have
these special signs and badges made
because each has the date of expira-
tion stamped on it, The license goes
forward ahead Of the sign.
Town and city clerks are required
by Section 10, chapter 400 laws of 1905,
to endorse state licenses and afix local
seals, in towns and cities where local

STARTS ACTIVE FIGHT
Woodrow Wilson Literature
Coming into Kenosha in
Large Quantities.
TO STUMP STATE PERSONALLY

Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey has
begun his active fight for the support
of the Wisconsin delegation to the
Democratic national convention for the
Democratic presidential nomination.
During the \past few days large
quantities of mail matter sent out from
New York City have been received in
Kenosha and throughout the state, evil
IDENTIFY sent out from headquarters
which are being maintained in New
York. The letters contain for the most
part newspaper clippings praising Gov.
Wilson for the work which he has done
for the progressive cause as governor
of New Jersey and also declaring that
Gov. Wilson is the man whom the Re
publicans are most afraid of in the
campaign and that that is the reason
why some Republican papers are show
ing such violent hostility to his candi-
dacy. Clippings are included from Re
publican papers containing articles un-
friendly to Gov Wilson.
1t is said this mail matter has been
sent out to a list of Wisconsin voters
which was furnished to the Wilson
leaders by Wisconsin men friendly to
the candidacy of Gov. Wilson. The list
contains, it is said, the names of a
large number of the progressive Demo
Gratis of the state.
Now that it is certain that Gov
Judson Harmon of Ohio will come to
Wisconsin for an address on Jan. Is
the Wilson men are renewing their
ton in February, but it may be
pay visit to Wisconsin prior to the
primary election. It is understood
that it is hoped to have Gov. Wilson
here about Feb. Is and that he is be-
ing strongly urged to come here at
that time.
The Democratic leaders are still
planning to have a Democrats conven-
ton here in February, but it may be
that little will be done at the conven-
ton beyond adopting resolutions an
nouncing the platform which the Wis
consin Democrats consider should be
the basis of the Democratic campaign.
If convention is held it will take
place about the middle OF February.
It is said that Democrats residing in
the interior counties of the state are
anxious that convention shall be held.

KICK ON COLLINS ST. SEWER.
Property Owners Claim Sewer is Not
Built in Keeping With Profile.

Property Owners Claim Sewer is Not
Built in Keeping With Profile.
There are lot of protests being
made against alleged defects in the
grade of the new sewer being built on
Collins street and property owners in
the ncighborhood claim that the city
is not getting its moneys worth from
the contractors. It is claimed that
the profile of the sewer provided that
it start at Is above the datum, but
that the real point of the start was
% above. Little information in re-
gard to the matter could be secured
at the Office Of the city engineer as it
seems that the original profile of the
sewer has disappeared. However, it is
probable that a report on the condi
tions will be sent to the city council
before the work is accepted It is
possible that the sewer is plenty deep
enough to take care of all demands Of
the property owners, but at that the
property owners are demanding that it
be put down just as deep as the origi-
raj profile called for. The property
owners also assert that the sewer is
filling with quick sand and this will
be another matter for the engineering
department to look into before it is
accepted by the council.
