WAS SON NOT FATHER.
Remains of Ed Gore, Jr, Killed in Chi

Remains OF Eu. tore, JT., Killed IN Chi
cago Brought to Kenosha for Burial.
The Evening News was in error on
Friday in stating that Edward Gore
was the man who was killed by being
struck by an Illinois Central train in
Chicago on Wednesday. The victim of
the train was Edward Gore, Jr., Son
Of the former Kenosha buffer. The
father is now in Detroit. working at his
trade and is said to in fairly good
health. The members of the Gore
family have no details as to the manner
in which Gore, who was about twenty
years of age, met his death, but they
are inclined to believe that the death
was accidental Members of the fami-
ly went to Chicago on. Thursday and
were held over them on Friday after
which the remains were brought to Ke-
plat at st. James cemetery. The young
man had resided in Kenosha until a
month ago when the members of the
family went to Detroit. One Of the
members of the family declared there
was strong doubt as to whether or not
Gore had taken his own life and these
people believe that he was crossing the
track and met death by accident
Young Gore was well known to many
of the younger people of Kenosha and
there seems to have been no reason for
his committing suicide. He had been
working in Chicago and so far as his
relatives knew he was entirely satisfied
with his condition in life.

THREATEN OLD LINES
Re-apportionment Of State
May Break Up Old Connec-
ton Between Cities
FAVOR PROGRESSIVE COUNTIES

Old political divisions in this portion
or the state promise to be ripped to
pieces in the new apportionment of the
assemblymen and senators that is now
being made by the legislature at Madi-
son and if Kenosha county does not
get some one on the job all of her old
political traditions will be wiped out.
AS yet the county has been left as a,
separate assembly district, but in the
desire to get the apportionment made
to favor certain political factions in
the state the counties not particularly
friendly to this particular faction or
which have shown a tendency to get
into the Democratic column are being
given little consideration. Thus far
the representation of Kenosha county
has not been taken away, but this
county is liable not to get fair shake
Racine county which is considerably
less than twice the size of Kenosha
county under the new plans will have
three members of the assembly and one
state senator. Kenosha under the same
figuring would be entitled to two mem
bers of the assembly. Many counties
not as large as Kenosha county have
been given two representatives in the
assembly.
Men who have watched the course
of the legislation are crying out
against it, declaring that it is entirely
fractional and it is probable that there
will be great fight on the floor of
both houses before the new bills for
the apportioning of the state are pass
ed. The old traditional relation for
the election of state senators in which
Racine and Kenosha county stood as
one district is to be disturbed and
Kenosha is to be tackled on to Wal
worth county and made part of the
twenty third senatorial district if the
Gaylord bill becomes a law. From the
earliest history of the county Racine
and Kenosha have been in the same
senatorial district The Gaylord bill
provides that Racine county shall be a
senatorial district.
The bill that is being framed by the
committee to send to the senate shows
almost as much partiahty, but in this
bill the old relations between Kenosha
and Racine counties are not disturbed
1t is expected that the two bills will
be brought before the state senate to-
day and that the proposed re-appor-
tionment of the state for the election
of members of the assembly will be
laid before the assembly at the same
time.
Kenosha county must remain an in
tegral part of WISCONSIN and so long as
it does the people Of the county should
60 to Madison and see to it that the
county has a representation in the two
bodies of the legislature to which it is
entitled.

Last Thought Was His Mother.

To prevent his aged mother from
being shocked by his terrible injuries
sustained in an accident, John Grady
of Belfast, when carried to his home
the other day, began to sing with
apparent light-heartedness. He was a
lineman, and while repairing some
wires current of 1000 volts was ac-
cidentally turned into them. Both Of
Grady's arms were burned off near
the elbow, and one leg was burned
to the bone before he was rescued
AS he was being carried into his
home he sang "Top O. the Mornin'," a
favorite song of his aged mother. She
came down to meet him, and he called
to her cheerily that he had been
slightly burned, and spared her the
shock as much as he could. He died
a few hours later.

BY e B. Evans.

Owing to the fact that so many

Motordrome June IS, Teddy Tetzlaff,
one of America s foremost drivers, in
his special built Lozier car, with which
he has broken several world S records,
also the one entered il the great In
ternational Sweepstakes races at the
Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 80,
has notified NJ. A. Kent, that he will
participate in the great race June IS.
Teddy says: - think stand good
show of breaking some Of the records
now held by Bob Burman and as |
have never had a contest with him, l
think this is the best opportunity to

Newspapers in the surrounding cities

watching closely the records of these

About 1900 hundred people gathered

be a little surprise awaiting the great
drivers when they see this boy Kent

cool and nervy and there is little doubt
but what he will give the world s
champions a run for their money.
From all indications it looks like
there will be 10000 people to see the
big auto races. Several letters have
been received in regard to boxes and
reserved seats for this meet. M. A.
Kent is very anxious that the local
PEOPLE should be taken care of first
and arrangements have been made with
f. E. Evans to start handling the ad
vance sale of tickets Immediately.
1t is hoped that the public will ac-
coed to this plan and buy their seats
at the earliest possible moment. This
will not only secure the local patrons

Germ. In handling crowd Of 10000
people every detail must be taken care
of and, the cooperation of the public
is essential.
