SELECT TWO SITES IN ILLINOIS
Zion City, Waukegan and Winthrop
Harbor Rush Protests to the Legis-
lature of Illinois to Prevent Loca-
tion Of the Plant.

Waukegan, Winthrop Harbor and
Zion City are having canniption fit.
Some one has told the people of the
three cities that the E. l. Dupont Pow
der company is planning to remove the
plant at Pleasant Prairie to Lake
county. The whole story Of the trou-
bles OF the Illinois cities is told in the
following from the Waukegan Sun of
Saturday.
Secret emissaries Of the E. L. Du-
ont De Nemours Powder company, of
Delaware, the owners of the big 200
acre plant which blew up at Pleasant
Prairie early in March, shook five
states, and caused $2,500,000 damages
have selected a new site for fresh
mills to be constructed on the Illinois
side OF the state line.
Sending men formerly employed at
Pleasant Prairie to the mill at Hib-
blng, Mimi, as blind, the agents of
the company have been working out
in Lake county from Winthrop Har-
boz for a week and have, it is re-
ported closed an option on 100 acre
tract.
Taking the bull by the horns, petit
tions against the locating Of the mills
along the state line have started at
Zion City Winthrop Harbor and will
soon be started at Waukegan.
Due to the fact that there is no ILL
nois prohibitory law, petitions and an
emergency legislative enactment are
the only things that can save the
county from the menace of the tons Of
dynamite and powder, likely to go up
without warning at any moment.
Men suspected of being agents of the
l)u Pont De Nemours company were
met at Winthrop Harbor last week by
a cabman of Zion City and driven
through northeastern Lake county to
view different places spoken of for
site for the mills.
One is two miles west of the Chiea-
go and Milwaukee electric road and
south of the Wisconsin line.
1t is $40 acres of rather low and
swampy ground, suitable for almost no
other purpose but location of powder
mills.
The other is west of the village of
Winthrop Harbor on broad, fat, rather
marshly land there.
1t is declared that 100 acres have
been placed under option and that the
deal is being rapidly closed.
The two or three emissaries of the
company on the job as land agents are
playing the original claim act as far
as disclosing their object in getting
the land is concerned.
Those who have been approached by
them are equally mum and will neither
affirm nor deny that the Pleasant Prai-
RE powder mills are to be moved across
the state line into Illinois.
Agents Of the company are particu-
lar to choose only spots which are
lonely and removed from the main
Travelled ways, their sole wish being
apparently to get simply some place
that can be connected with switch
tracks and favorable place for
tracks and railroad system, which is
why the spot west of Winthrop Har-
Dor is favored.''

The Chicago collection agency which
recently issued list of alleged bad
debtors does not appear to have been
unduly alarmed over the storm Of in
dignation and the threats of numer
Gus law suits which it's first publica-
tion provoked for it is said a supple
mentary list with about one hundred
and fifty names added has been placed
in the hands of the merchants and
business men entitled to the services
of the agency. The collection agency,
it is declared, simply takes the ground
that its clients in KenOsha are entitled
to the protection which this list gives
them and that any debtor who feels
that he has been done an injustice has
his remedy at law. In this connection
it may be noted that none of the
threatened suits which were to follow
the publication off the first list ever
reached the courts and that many of
the debtors whose names appeared on
the list merely through their own care
lessness in business matters adopted
the easiest and most effective method
of having them removed by settling
up their bills. The merchants natural
ly are very chary of referring to the
list in any way and many of them
deny that such list is in existence,
but those who will talk at all insist
that something of the kind is absolute
ly necessary to prevent heavy losses
in city With such large floating
population as Kenosha and that the
saving made in bad debts will aggre-
gate a large total in the course of a
year. Moreover, it is certain that the
people who pay their obligations
promptly will side with the merchants
and the collection agency for it is
obvious that the losses of the mer-
chants through the dead beats are in
the long run paid by other buyers in
the way of an added percentage to
take care of these bad debts on the
price of everything they buy.

With the approach of the warm
weather, comes warning from the
department of agriculture health ex-
perts against the ice cream cones
which should be needed in Kenosha.
The experts do not condemn all of the
cones, but they point out that certain
brands have been found to contain
harmful chemicals and that parents
should not permit their children to
eat them unless they know where the
cones are made. These cones are con-
sumed almost exclusively by children
and every effort should be made to in
sure that their quality is first class.

The annual spring clean up has been
very general this year and the city
just. at present is believed to be in
better sanitary condition than it has
been at this time of the year in some
years. Of course it may develop that
lot of the cleaning is only on the
surface and that there are many plague
spots that may become dangerous lat
er needing looking after, but we do
not think that it will. 1t is hardly
necessary to say that the appearance
of the city has been greatly improved
and if the present conditions can be
maintained throughout the year a great
advance will have been made towards
the ideal of a spotless town.

But we do say that those who think to
bring about socialism by human wis
dom and human strength are deficient
in wisdom. They do not see that what
they propose is absolutely impossible
their eyes are holden.
The Bible alone shows us what will
be the outcome of the present unrest
and selfishness and dissatisfaction
The Bible tells that what will start as
socialism will eventually develop into
anarchy. The Bible shows that those
