EVANSTON HAS MODEL SYSTEM
Suggestion that Kenosha Find a Way
to Have Municipality Dispose OF Gar
bage May Meet With Approval of
Council

Now that summer and hot weather
are not far away, the question arises
naturally, and is being put by many
kenosha people as to what disposition
is to be made of the garbage this sum-
mer. AS yet the city has taken no
steps to provide for the collection or
disposal of garbage and so far as
known no such action is being contem-
plated.
Several people have declared that it
is time that the city did something
with regard to collecting and disposing
of garbage. They say that the present
system is far from. being satisfactory.
They. point to the fact that the men
who are collecting garbage at the pres
emit time are not paying any attention
to the city ordinance. Some of the
wagons in which the garbage is car
ried are not water tight and are not
covered with tarpaulin as provided by
law AS result the disease breeding
liquid is allowed to drip out along the
streets and the high winds causes pa
pers and other articles of garbage tc
be blown from the unprotected tops of
the wagons.
Under the existing conditions the
police department is unable to act as
the arrest Of garbage gatherers who
may be violating the law would cause
them to give up the business and leave
the city in an even greater plight than
at present.
According to one man the only solu-
tion is to have a crematory placed on
the two city lots on the lake front and
then have the city collect and dispose
Of all garbage itself, charging each ac-
cupant of a house a certain fee for do
ing the work. In this manner an ord
nance would be enforced to the letter
and the garbage would be disposed of
in most satisfactory manner.
City officials visited the crematory
at Evanston about a year ago and
they were much pleased and it was said
that an attempt would be made to have
one installed here. Thus far nothing
has been done toward this end and the
city is liable to find itself in a serious
plight this summer as the beginning of
the real hot weather is sure to provoke
the unhealthful conditions.
City officials are very willing to pur-
chase crelnatory but assert that the
depleted condition of the city finances
at the present time would make this
impossible.

PLAN FOR LONG ROAD.
Kenosha Co. to Have Part i'll
State Road Proposed From
State Line to Ashland
BUILT At COST OF THE STATE

People of Kenosha county will be
deeply interested in bill introduced
in the assembly at Madison by Assem-
blyman O'Day on Monday as the bill
provides for the building of a state
road from the state line seven miles
south of Kenosha In northwesternly
direction to the city of Ashland on the
extreme northwestern boundary of the
state. The road if built will pass di-
rectly through Kenosha county and
win not follow the lines of any exist
ing road. The plan is to have the road
three rods in width with the under
standing that the single rod in the cen
ter Of the road shall be paved with
road dragged and properly drained. The
bill provides that the entire cost of the
purchase Of the right of way and of
the construction of the road shall be
paid by the state and the building of
it will be entirely under commission
The Dean of the Engineering depart
ment of the University Of Wisconsin is
to be the head of the commission and
the other five members of the commits
sion are to be named by the Governor
and their appointment will become eff
fective when the senate confirms it.
The bill provides that in such places
as are possible the road may follow ex-
listing roads but that in such cases
these roads shall be improved and main
tanned at the cost of the state of Wis
consin and not by the counties in
which the road is situated. In order to
provide for the cost of building and
maintaining the road the bill provides
for the levying of an annual tax of
tenth of mill to be assessed
against all property in the state
The bill of Assemblyman O'Day has
been discussed by the committee on
AUnuo 1Ot pOuIC G1I1C anu III is uGCIdrpO
that it meets the requirements of this
committee and that it will receive the
sanction of the committee. The bill,
however, will undoubtedly meet with
lot of opposition from representatives
of counties far remote from the propos.
ed route of the road. 1t is declared
that the building of the road would be
one of the biggest things ever under
taken by the state and no estimate has
been made of the total cost of the road
as planned. If the road can be built
on straight line it would be a little
over 800 miles in length and it would
be one of the longest roads ever built
by any state in the union. The road is
planned along the same lines as the old
National road which runs between Phil
adelphia and st. Louis and which was
built at the expense of the National
Government many years ago. It is ex-
pected that some formal action on the
bill will be taken within few DAYS.

MILL UTILIZE OLD PLAYERS
Knight and Berkinoes Will do the
Pitching for the Team in Opening
With Racine Team on Easter Sun


Manager John Faag of the Rambler
base ball team is making active plans
for the opening of the Lake Shore sea-
ION in Kenosha and according to the
schedule that is to be adopted at the
next meeting Of the league managers,
The first game in Kenosha will take
place on Easter Sunday and the Ken
psha team will line up against the Ra-
Zine team. The schedule will provide
for games with nearby teams for the
first few Sundays in the season in or
der to avoid heavy losses for the man
ayers on account of railway expenses
IN case the weather makes it impossible
Tor the games to be played.
Manager Haag is making lot of i'm
provements at Rambler park and the
park will present very changed ap-
pearance when it is opened for the sea-
son. The grand stand is being rebuilt
and backs are being placed on all the
seats. The projections have been re-
placed with new wire and the boxes
have been rebuilt. Manager Haag has
also rebuilt the fence and many small
boy who was accustomed to watch the
game from knot hole in the fence
will find that he has lost his point of
view when the season opens.
There is lot of work being done on
hhe diamond. The old knoll at the
back Of the short stops position has
been cut down and the entire east end
Df the diamond has been filed up and
leveled Off 1t is thought that these
changes will make it much easier to
maintain, the park and that the wet
weather will not interfere with the
playing of teams as it did in former
years.
Manager Haag is not as yet ready to
announce the lineup of his team for the
season but nearly all of the players on
The Rambler team last season will be
retained. John Powell who played
first base with the Hreon team last sea-
son has been signed by Haag and will
play the same position this year. Ray
Knight and Berkimoes who made good
against the Breen team last season
will be the pitchers for the. Rambler
team and it is probable that another
pitcher will be secured later in the sea-
son. The full line up of the team will
be announced early in April. Nearly
all of the men who played with the
Kenosha team last season will be in
Waukegan uniforms this year as Man
ager Breen of the Waukegan team has
kept a line on them during the winter
and has signed all of them for his new
team. Pulse the old Kenosha pitcher
however, may be seen in a Kenosha uni
form early in the season. Pulse does
not care to play with the Waukegan
team but he has always been partial

Two Men Alleged to Be from
Kenosha Meet RoughTreat-
ment at North Chicago
REPUO|ATED BY LOCAL LEADERS


Kenosha were mobbed at North Chica-
go on Sunday afternoon according to
messages received from that city to-
day and the men were lucky to escape
with their lives. The men were alleg-
ed to be Socialists but the Social Dem
ocratic leaders in kenosha declare that
they know nothing of the identity of
the men and that they had nothing to
do with theiy meeting being held in
the Illinois city. The men had the
time of their lives, however, and it is
thought that two badly battered men
swathed in bandages who came to Ken
osha late Sunday night were mobbed.
1t is thought possible that they belong
to some of the foreign branches of the
Social Democratic party in Kenosha
but this fact is vigorously denied by
the leaders of the party in the city.
"The laws of the United States are
no good for us people," are said to
be the words with which the alleged
Kenosha men began their harangue.
The first speaker made vital mistake
for he had no more than uttered these
words when near riot broke loose in
the hall. Men arose in their seats,
brandishing their fists, and shouted:
"Mob Them!'' Shut Upo and HMob
Them!" A rush was made for the plat
form and the curtain was rung down
in the faces of the oncoming mob
Just at this juncture Officers Edward
Lux and Harvey Hyde of the North
Chicago police station arrived on the
scene in time to stop bombardment Of
the curtain and speakers with rotten
eggs and mouldy vegetables.
The two officers bravely broke
through the crowd, collared two of the
socialist speakers, and hustled them
out onto Tenth street. They hurried
them to the Tenth street railway sta
tion and put them on north bound
car.
They got on the car just in time to
avoid storm of Kisses, kicks and
blows, and the officers were kept busy
driving back the threatening crowd
that surged behind them and the pris-
oners.
The officers had in their charge only
two of the speakers. A third managed
to get lost in some way and was boot
ed along the street until he Joined the
others. They also felt the weight of
some heavy brogans from their pursu-
ers.
Matt Slana, who owns the hall, did
not know today the names of the
speakers, nor did any of the socialists
of Waukegan or any of the reputed
leaders of the meeting held Sunday. ALL
that is known is that the three hailed
from Chicago and Kenosha.
In some manner the report got about
that they intended to make treason
able attack on the United States gov
eminent and on the Catholic church,
and this was all that was needed. 1t
did the promoters no good to assert
that the speakers were trying to form
a socialist club.
Hardly had the first speaker spoken
the words quoted saying them in Aus
trian and asserting that the laws of the
country are no good when pandemon-
ium broke loose and there was no hold
ing back the riot.
There were 200 at the meeting which
was almost unannounced The three
speakers simply had to run for their
lives as those who attended the meet
ing were infamed.

A SLAM ON THE CALF

In the earlier days of the so-called
book farming" before the new
tangled ideas of farming had made
so many poor farmers we'll off, many
of the incredulous farmers at insti-
tutes loved to quiz the speakers in
more or less impertinent manner,
and one speaker, who had taken an
ordinary college course and then
added the course of the agricultural
college to that, lost his temper on
such an occasion and blurted out.
"I know what l am talking about.
I am graduate of two colleges,
and"

SAM RICH FED WILD DUCKS

Judge Rich, of Pocatello, and s.
J. Rich, the new commissioner oil
Immigration, are said to have gone
duck hunting once in Bear Lake
Valley, when Sam fed the wild ducks
| and the judge shot them.
1t seems that it was in the days
of the "re-loading Shells" and when
they got to the camping place the
Judge proposed that Sam attend to
the horses while he loaded the Shells
There was plenty of wheat for the
horses and plenty of shot for the
shells, but that Is immaterial, irrel-
evant and not admissible as evil
dence at this time.
When they went out among the
ducks Sam knocked feathers out of
the fowls whenever he got close but
the ducks kept right on going. The
judge got ducks every time and at
the same range. Finally Sam got
disgusted and began to berate the
gun. The judge offered to exchange
guns, and this was done, with the
same results as before. When they
got back to camp Sam dug into one
of the shells and found it loaded
with wheat, and he exclaimed:
Here! l file demurrer right
now!" But the judge said: "Why
you brought a sack of wheat and
set it right by the sack of shot, and
supposed.
mo! No-o-o-no!" retorted Sam,
this thing of having me feed the
horses is all right, but when you
put me to chasing all over the flats
to feed the wild ducks on the wing
that's different"

WILL CHARGE 1Oc ADMISSION

An admission of ten cents will be
charged at the poultry show next
week. the money being used to de-
fray expenses of the show and to help
get the association on it's feet. The
members are giving considerable of
their time to the work, for which
they do not expect to reap any bene-
fit, except as everybody is benefited,
and 1t should be pleasure to the
general public who have none Of
the work to do to pay the dime.
In regard to the meetings of the
institute, 1t is desirable to hold them
in the same building with the show
If there Is room. 1t is not the pur-
pose to charge an admission for the
institute, but 1t is assumed that all
who come to town at that time will
wish to see the poultry show. Those
who 60 into the show in the morning
will. of course, want to go ont at
the noon hour and perhaps at other
times, and the doorkeeper will have
return checks for them to come in
on, good for use the same day.
If the show were thrown open to
free admission all through the insti-
tute, most of the public would not
have a chance to contribute so much
as a dime to the expense fund of
the poultry association, and " would
leave them in such f!nan-
cial straits that they could not wen
go on with their good work thar is
to benefit the country at
arge. Most of the farmers and bus
mess people will gladly contribute
10 the work in this way, an0 while
we are not authorized to say it, we
offer the prediction that if there are
my poor people who want to attend
he institute to learn better farming
md have not the price of admission,
hey will not be denied admission

SOME BOOZE CASES

A long list of cases for alleged
illegal selling of liquor will be called
for consideration at the court next
week. A motion was made last term
to secure a change of venue to some
other county, and the motion was
supported by several thousand afi-
davits of citizens stating that they
did not believe a fair trial could be
had of such cases in this county.
The county attorney asked for
time in which to secure counter affi-
davits, and these will be ready to
