Former Congressman c. II. Weisse

the ground that the new president

Gov. Wilson is against bosses and
bossism, said Mr.. Weisse. "and will
not be inclined, in my OPTION, to toll
crate anything of that kind. 1t seems
to me that he will be wiling to listen
to advice from democratic leaders

1t is said tremendous demand for
official place under the democratic ad-
ministration exists. Chairman Hem

SLAP STICK COMEDY ENDS IN JAIL

Der with Strap Get Heavy Sentences

Der with Strap Get Heavy Sentences
Slap stick comedy may be all right
in a theatre but it is liable to get the
stickers y in wrong when it is pulled
off at boarding houses peopled with
foreigners. This was the case this
morning when John Protatz and Carl
Wsockiwere brought before Judge Ran
dali on charges of assaulting Frank
Malisan in a house on Third street.
Frank was on hand and he showed the
court that he had been beaten black
and blue by the two other men 1t
leaked out that they had been giving
their friend the fourth degree. Judge
Randall failed to see that there was
any joke in beating a man black and
blue with a strap and Protatz was
fined $25 and costs or forty days in
jail while Wysocki was given fine of
SIS and costs or thirty days in all.
Both men went to Jail but it is probable
that they will be able to secure the
money to pay their fines before their
victim is able to sit down to his meals
again.

Judge G.. G. Rheuby of Wilmington,

of the E. I. DePont de Nemours Pow
der Company, arrived in Kerosha this
morning and is making an inves5iga-
ton of the movements Of the county
board in connection with the alleged
regulation of powder making in the
county Judge Rheuby, when seen
declared that he had nothing to say
in regard to the matter as he had not
been fully advised as to just what
steps had been taken by the county or
the nature Of the action to be brought
against the company. Judge Rheuby
declared that at present the operations
at the powder plant at Pleasant Prai-
RE were not more than half what they
had been in former years. He declar-
ed that under the present Wisconsin
laws which the company was obeying
to the letter there was no chance for
a repetition of the explosion of last
year. The judge will be in Kenosha
for several days.

The lake front was hit hard by the

fos tho city to take some immediate
steps TO protect the beach at tie
north end Of Lake avenue The break

carried out great chunks of the land

the lake front were filled up with sand

TO PROCEED AT ONCE.
District Attorney Ordered to Bring
Action Against Powder Plant.

The county board has passed form
al resolution directing the district at
torney to proceed at once to stop the
manufacture of powder in this county
and it is expected that some action
will be started within the next few
weeks. The form that the action is
to take has not as yet been announced
by District Attorney Hastings, but ii
is certain that he will be vigorous in
the prosecution of the matter.
County Highway Commissioner j. G

with the board and it is IN the hands
Of the COMMITTEE on roads and bridges
No action toward the election OF an.
other commissioner will be taken I'm.

Ii it is decided to install filtration
system for Kenosha the same mistake
must not be made with this public i'm
provement that has been made with
SO many other improvements in this
city in the past ten years. 1t must not
be built too small and it must be built
where there is room to double its ca
paeity in the next ten years. Consumers
are entitled to all of the water they are
willing to pay for and it should never
be necessary to curtail their supplies
for any lack of pumping or other
equipment ar the plant. And there is
no question of the wisdom of providing
for great extension of the city in the
future. The experiences of the past
ten years should have taught us some
thing on that head, and the expansion
o. the city has only begun. AS soon as
the problem of housing the people who
seek homes in Kenosha is faced as it
should and will be the population of
the city will increase faster than it
ever has in the past.

eve admit McGovern's election.
His plurality is such that any slight
changes which recount of votes i'll
various precincts of the state might
make would not affect the general
result. -
This statement was made by Paul

tic state central committee on Thurs
day after a meeting of the officers of
the committee, at which the result Of
the investigation of the votes cast in
some of the state precincts was given
by Harry F. MeLogan, secretary of
the committee.
"The investigation made at the IN
stance Of the committee" said Mr..
Hemmy, "showed us that the only out
come was likely to be some changes
back and forth, the net result of
which might add slightly to the Karel
vote, but not enough to ondanger Nc

The meeting was held to discuss the
financial situation of the committee.
Those present were Mr.. Hemmy, An
drew Jensen of Edgerton, treasurer;
Mr.. McLogan and II. F. Bolens Of
Port Washington. The campaign in the
state cost the committee $4,000. Of
this $4,000 was spent for the state
ticket and the remainder for the ma

deficit existed on the side of the ma
tional ticket, but the state campaign
was carried through with no bills

Mr.Hemmy said he would call .
meeting of the committee some time

fof receiving the report Of the officers.
The question Of who will distribute

ton is causing much discussion among

| 1t has been the general opinion that
there will be no controversy. These
views have been usually based on the
! premise that Gov. Wilson has cut loose
from the idea of bosses and bossism
and will be apt to consult with demo-
cratic leaders generally in making his
appointments, rather than leave recon-
menda tions to one man.
II oan see no reason whatever for
any controversy on this point,' said
Chairman Kenny. "Presidentelect

PERMISSION TO SUCCEED HIM
Superintendent of Gas Department of
Big Company Will be Named as Gen.
eral nager-Retiremen of r. NJ.
Kimban Marks End of Old Regime.

hOSeF N. h1mDall, IOF GH6 paSG AG
years general manager of the Kenosha
Gas and Electric company in Kenosha,
and regarded as a fixture with utility
companies in the city, will retire from
his position on Saturday evening and
his retirement marks the elimination
Of the Kimball interests from the pub
lie utility corporations in Kenosha. Way
back before Southport became Kenosha
members of the Kimbal family became
interested in the business of supplying
Kenosha with illumination when the late
J. III. Kimball was interested in the
first gas mains laid in Kenosha.
Throughout more than so years mem
bers of the Kimbeall family have been
connected with the business. e. M.
Kimball became general manager of
the company shortly after he compel
ed his college course and under his di-
rection the operations Of the company
have been largely extended. From a
utility which supplied only gas the COM
pany has grown so as to take in many
allied interests, and at the present time
it is in complete control of the utilities
of the city. Mr.. Kimball sent his re-
signation to the officials of the Wiscon-
sin Gas and Electric company month
ago when he joined with G. @. Allen
and Robert w. Allen in the purchase
of the controlling stock of the Chi
cago-Kenosha Hosiery company and he
will in the near future become active
in the management of the stocking max
ing plant. In the past few years the
retiring superintendent of the lighting
company had strenuous place to fill
The struggles between the two utility
companies in Kenosha brought him
much into the lime Light of publicity
and he had big part in the movement
which finally brought combination of
all the utility companies in the city.
1t is unoficially announced that Mr..
Kimball will be succeeded in the man
agement of the Kenosha branch of the
Wisconsin Gas & Electric Company by
Charles D. Permission, at the present
time general superintendent of the Gas
department of the big company. Mr.
Permission has been an employee of the
company in Kenosha for more than
nine years and in that time he has
shown great ability as manager and
as an expert along the lines followed
by the company. In the nine years he
has worked his way up from a position
as bookkeeper to that of superintendent
of one Of the biggest departments Of the
company He has been especially
schooled in the work Of management by
acting as assistant to Mr.. Kimball dur
ing the past five or six years.
Mr.. Permission is an unassuming man
but he has shown his ability to make
good and he is decidedly popular with
the employees of the company and with
the public in general who have come in
contact with him. Mr.. Permission will
be charge of all the activities of the
company in Kenosha with the excep-
ton of the operation of the Kenosha
Electric Railway Company. AS IN the
past this work will be left in the hands
of Racine manager. Mr.. Permission
will begin active duties as general
manager for Kenosha on next Monday
morning.

the land owner who acquires the kind
