MUST PROVIDE new ISSUE
City Council Will Have to Make Pro-
vision to Meet the Final Cost of the
Sewer Before the First of Next
December.

The bonds to provide funds for the
building of the trunk sewer will be de-
Hvered to the officials of the Merchants
and Savings bank late this afternoon
and they will be offered for sale to the
people OF Kenosha. Local bankers de-
clare that they will have no trouble
disposing of the bonds, but that they
will be first offered to Kenosha invest
ors in order to give the people of Ke-
nosha chance to show their patriotism.
It is declared that if the bonds are
taken by Kenosha people the sale Of
Kenosha bond issues in the future will
be made much easier and that the
bonds in the future will bring high
er premium. Already several Kenosha
capitalists have subscribed for part
of the $4,000 issue and the owners
Of the bonds believe that most of them
will remain in Kenosha.
With the promise that the sewer will
be completed by the first of December
the city council will be forced to take
early steps to provide more money to
meet the demands of the contractors.
1t is not thought that the money for
the sewer will be drawn from the gen
eral funds Of the city, but that the
council will ask tie people Of the city
to vote on a new bond issue to meet
the final payments which will become
due within thirty days after the sewer
is completed and accepted by the city
council. 1t will be necessary to sub
NIT the question of this bond issue to
the people. AS the contract price for
the sewer is about $4,000 it will be
necessary to provide for second bond
issue amounting to $4,000. 1t is not
thought that the issue will meet with
any determined opposition as the peo-
pie of the city have become convinced
that the sewer is going to be great
thing in the development of the future
of Kenosha and for this reason all sides
of the city have declared themselves
as favorable to it's completion. The

US. Government Makes New
Rules fOrPetitions for Nat
uralizatiOn of Aliens
GET FACTS FROM FIRST HAND

The fedora officials are making
changes in the method for securing
second papers by aliens and clerk of
circuit court, DeDienar, has received
from Washington copies of new blanks
to be used in securing information in
regard to aliens who came to this
country after June 20, 1906 and the
federal officials will themselves secure
the facts in regard to the arrival of
them to the clerk of the court in the
county where<t the petition for naturali-
cation is made.
The new blanks provide that every
possible information in regard to the
landing of the alien be secured by the
federal officials and it is necessary for
this blank to be made out and filed
with the department before the petit
tion for the naturalization of the alien
will be entertained.
BY the change in method the govern
ment officials aim to secure closer
supervision over naturalization and
they intend to satisfy themselves of
just when and how the alien came to
this country and gain all the further
information that can be secured from
passports given to the various steam
ship companies. The change will take
little work off the shoulders of the
clerk of the court and it is expected
that it will result in the government
getting much more accurate informa-
ton in regard to the aliens.

City Council Plan for Refer
endum for Franchise Gets
Indefinite ostponement
OBJECTION BY COMMISSION

The bill drawn at the order of the
Kenosha Common Council and fathered
by Assemblyman Scholey providing for
a referendum in handling franchise
ordinances in cities of Wisconsin will
never be enacted into law as the as
sembly committee on corporations has
reported the bill for indefinite post
ponment and no further action will be
taken on it. "The bill met with
opposition both from the governor and
the railroad commission, said Mayor
Scholey this morning, "and it seemed
certain that it was doomed to defeat.
[ was given a substitute amendment
for the law by members of the rail
road commission, but this did not meet
the provisions of the original amend
ment in any way and I simply refused
to present it to the assembly. l pre-
ferred to have the bill indefinitely post
poned than to ask for something that
we did not want. -
The bill provided that all questions
of franchises after they had been turn
ed down by the railroad commission
could be presented to the people OF
the cities interested and that with a
majority vote the city council could act
regardless of the action of the commits
sion. The bill was regarded as peril
nent to the situation in Kenosha as
it was held that should the supreme
court knock out the law recently pass
ed validating the franchise of the Keno
sha Electric railway Co. as a lighting
utility then the matter could be sub
mitted to the vote Of the people of the
city. The Scholey bill however, met
with a great deal more opposition than
the other bill and for this reason it
was killed. Tt was held by the com
mittee that there was no demand for
the passage of such law as it would
practically take away the powers of
the railroad commission and place these
powers in the hands Of the city coun-
ellis of cities. The railroad commission
held that the bill was particularly OBJ
noxious and it is certain that it would
have been vetoed by the governor bad
it passed the hurdles of the two houses
of the Legislature. There is no posi-
bility of a reconsideration of the bill
in the closing hours of the session.

council viii not seek to issue bonds
until the money is actually needed to
meet payments on the job and this will
lot be until some time III October or
November. AS there is no fall election
this year it seems probable that it will
be necessary for special election to
be called to permit the people to vote
on the bond issue.
The work on the sewer is now 60
ing along rapidly. Differences in regard
to materials will probably hold up the
work until after next Monday night
when it is expected that the special
committee named at the last meeting
of the council viii report on the Sc
lection OF q city engineer. The lack of
an engineer has been felt and felt
deeply at the sewer. There has been
no one to act for the city and the work
has been marked with repeated clashes
between the inspector and the super
intendent of the work. The contractors
claim that they are bonded to carry
out the specifications and they have
refused to accept orders from the in.
spector. President Cleary of the con-
struction company was in Kenosha on
Thursday and notified the members of
the council that he was willing to have
any expert engineers that the council
saw fit called in to decide on the ma
terial, but that he would not stand for
the work being held up by useless com,
plants. It is thought that the cleo
ton of an engineer will do away with
all Of the present troubles.
The committee has as yet not given
out any of their doings in regard to
the selection of an engineer but they
will have a report ready to submit to
the council on next Monday evening.
1t is said that Charles Poetsch, former
ly engineer Of Milwaukee, Charles M.
Powell of Chicago, and Architect Bait
yer and John Williams of Kenosha, are
the leading candidates for the position.

ISSUING NEW LICENSES.
Saloons to Work Under New City
Licenses on Saturday Morning.

The new city saloon licenses will 60
into effect on Saturday morning and
the saloon men are very busy today
settling with the city treasurer and
securing the formal licenses from the
city clerk. At noon nearly all of the
fees had been paid. AS yet no fee
has been paid for the license issued
for $50 Main street, but it is stated
that the fee will be paid this after
noon and that formal license will be
issued to J. H. Dosemagen. This will
probably open a new fight between
Dosemagen and the Miller Brewing
company as it is understood that he
will demand possession of the place at
once. It is now occupied as a restaur-
ant There will be many changes in
the men behind the bars on Saturday
as many men have retired from the
business and made way for new Il
eenses.

"Rcn IIur.'

The wisdom displayed by the man
sgement OF the Grand Opera House
in booking ben Hur' as the attrac-
tion at that theater on Monday and
Tuesday evenings and special Tues
day matinee February and Z, has
been amply justified by the extra
ordinary interest already manifested
In the engagement The high literary
merit of this classic spectacle, COM
bined with Its religious atmosphere,
appealing to all classes Of playgoers
alike, has Invariably attracted the
most exclusive element in every city
in which the ply has been presented.
The reason for this universal appeal
Is self-evident. In its unfolding the
story touches on many of the worlds
questions, as important today as they
were two thousand years ago during
the period Of the plays action. In
ben Hur' one finds a variety of sem
tlment and emotion, pure romance,
terrific adventure, subtle intrigue,
reverend ana awed comment on the
living Christ, fcarsome realism in the
wonderful chariot race and the most
interesting and compelling Of love
stories, The beauty Of the scenic set
ting, the splcndor of the pageants
which fiji its scenes, the gorgeous
eastern garblng Of the characters and
tho fine performance Of the drama
generally are concomitantR Of the
hlaw G. Granger production Of the
play The stage has never seen any
thing more real or more terrible in
It's intensity than the chariot race.
When the foaming horses, driven by
Ben Hur and Messlla, come into
view, audiences sit with bated breath
and the silence renders the scene
doubly impressive. The triumph Of
Ben Hur, however, lifts the strain,
and the result Is series Of cheers
such as are seldom heard inside
theatel.
