KLEIsT FOR SHERIFF.
Fifth Ward Man shys Hat Into Ring
for Leading County Office.

Fifth Ward Man Shys Hat Into Ring
for Leading County ONCE.
Now that the new city officials have
taken their Offices and the city cam
paign is at an end the politicians are
turning their attention to the county
campaign. With the opening Of the
lcampaign it is announced that John
Kleist Is out as a candidate for the
| Republican nomination for sheriff
and some active work is being done in
/ his behalf. DR. r. w. B. Achen is also
out in the open as a Republican can
didate for the same Office. It is said
that there VIII be several other candi-
dates in short time, but that the list
will be conspicuous on account of the
absence Of the names of several peo-
lple who have been candidates in past
years.
The Democrats are very active in
preparing for the county campaign
and it is declared that these people
believe that there is a possibility of
the party carrying the county and for
this reason there will be more Demo
cratic than Republican candidates in
the field. Edward d. Murphy has
formally thrown his hat into the ring
as candidate for the Democratic
nomination for sheriff and he insists
that it is going to stay there. M. j..
seholey, who has sought many Offices
in the city and county and who aspir
led to be candidate for governor,
may settle down as a candidate for
sheriff.
| This is taken as a suggestion that
the assemblylhan will not seek a re
nomination. On the Republican side
Of the house Alfred L. Drury, one Of
the best known of the younger attor
lneys of the city, is being mentioned
as candidate for district attorney.
1t is said that number of the Re
publieans, who formerly held county
Offices, will be candidates for re-
nomination this year.
It is expected that the county cam
paign will be in full blast within an
other month and that by the time the
national convention is held in Chicago
the lines will be pretty well drawn

WILL BRING CERTAIN CONTEST
Nomination Filed With Secretary of
Commission, but no Announcement of
Appointment Is Made to the Common
Council at Meeting Monday.

IN last eH0fC 60 secure a continue
ance Of some vestige Of the Scholey
administration former Mayor NJ. j.
Scholey, who was succeeded as mayor
Of the city by Dan Q. Head when Mr..
Head took his oath Of Office a week
ago, on Monday afternoon attempt
ed to appoint d new member of the
police and fire commission and to this
end sent to John Priddis, the secre-
tary of the commission, the nomina-
ton of former Alderman Peter Pirsch,
formerly president of the city coun-
Gil No announcement of the appoint
ment Of Mr.. Pirsch was made to the
old council at its last session on Mon
day evening and the council was given
no chance to confirm the appoint
ment.
Under the provisions Of the law no
confirmation Of the appointment of
police and fire commissioner is neces-
sary. The mayor has attempted to
name the former alderman Of the first
ward to succeed John J. English,
whose term Of Office is expected to
expire on the first day Of May next.
There seems to be some doubt as to
just when the term expires and form
er Mayor James German, who named
Mr.. English declares that he was
named for a full term Of five years.
If this is the case his term would not
expire for another year. Mr.. English
had profered his resignation as a
member Of the commission to Secre-
tary Priddis on Sunday, but at the
urgent request Of his friends he with.
drew the resignation.
Mayor Dan @. Head has given out
no statement in regard to the matter
more than to state that when the
times comes for the appointment of
police and fire commissioner he will send
his appointment to the common coun-
Gil in the regular manner and that the
council will then have chance to
confirm the appointment
The question Of the right Of a re-
firing mayor to name a member Of
the board has been up for discussion
in Kenosha before. At one time "a
retiring Republican mayor named
members of the board and they never
qualified as the city attorney held
that he had no right to make the ap-
pointments.
OF course the pretended appoint
ment for commissioner will cause some
comment around the city
Attorneys when seen today said
that there was no doubt as to the le-
gal phase of the matter One of the
attorneys said: "Under the law the
term of Mayor scholey expired just as
soon. as his successor was elected and
qualified and in this reading Of the
law the mayor would of course have
no power to make any appointments
after Mayor Head had taken his oath
of Office. 1t has always been custo.
mary to give retiring official GER
tain courtesies, but these Of course
are only possible where there is no con-
test. Any effort to perform an Of
fetal act which is not in keeping with
the wishes Of new administration
would Of course be open to review by
the courts.

planting reliable cabbage seed and
inferior seed? One pound Of good
seed viii plant four acres, the aver
age yield is Is tons per acre or so
tons from one pound of seed, figuring
the average price of good Holland or
Danish cabbage $500 per ton or $3.50
from one pound Of good seed. The
difference in price of good Holland or
Danish and inferior mixed cabbage is
two to four dollars per ton calling it
So less per ton. The termination
and tonnage the same as the reliable
seed or $3.50 for one pound seed, a diff
ference of $3.50 in favor of reliable

Cabbage seed / am offering at $3.50
per pound, the same strain / so. the

This is the list of appointiye Of
fcers and committees named by the
new council on its organization on
Monday evening. They were selected
as a non-partison body Of officials, but
at that there was an understanding
among a majority of the members of
The new body which made the election
of the officials move with neatness
and dispatch.
The1t was little Of an exciting nat
ure in connection with the organizing
Of the council. The members by a
large majority refused to go on rec
ord as being in favor of an open bal
lot. Before the first ballot for presi-
dent Of the council was taken Alder
man John Fl. Hegeman sought to have
all the members 60 on record in their
selection of officials by having an
open vote. He sought to have the roll
called and the members of the council
vote orally for their favorites for the
different officials. This suggestion
brought storm Of protest and the
plan was bitterly opposed by a num-
Der of the aldermen
| Alderman Kisten made his maiden
speech before the council in favor of
the open ballot and it was also
strongly urged by Aldermen Marlatt
and Rhode. When vote on the ques-
ton was finally reached it was an
open vote and it showed Aldermen
Rhode, Marlatt, Thomey, Hegeman,
Kisten and saftig voted in favor of
the open ballot, and Aldermen
| @ 'Brien, Roberts, Starr, Filbin, Con-
forti, Rauen, stemm, Werner Wiilems
and Bruins opposed it. With this
point settled the aldermen started
voting.
Alderman Werner led from the frst
for sthe office Of president with Alder
man Marlatt, receiving the vote Of
the minority members of the council.
The seventh ward alderman was elect
ed on the fourth formal ballot, getting
mime votes. Alderman Marlatt receiv-
led six, and Aldermen G. F. stemm
! two.
On the informal ballot John q slat-
er received ten vote to six for Calvin
Stewart and one for r. ?. Gayehagh
The informal ballot was promptly de-
elared formal and s2atef declared
elected.

Iof the seventeen votes cast for street
commissioner on the first ballot and

Somewhat improved after visit to French Lick Springs and St. Louis. City Commissioner A. O. Lane reached home yesterday morning. He has been away from Birmingham several days in an ef- fort to recover from an attack of Ia grippe, and only returned so soon because of the holiday season and the consequent rush of business.
 Commissioner Lane said in answer to questions that he had not been keeping in touch with affairs here and did not know the first thing about any alleged misconduct in the police department. He said in addition that he preferred not to discuss any rumored investigations. out of difference to his associates, believing that he owed them certain respect in handling matters which developed during his absence.

Here is homemade remedy that takes hold of a cough instantly, and will usually cure the most stubborn case in 24 hours. This recipe makes 8 rs...-, enough for whole family. You couldn't buy as much or as good ready made cough syrup for $2.50.
 Mix one pint of granulated sugar with F pint of warm water, and stir 2 minutes. Put 21a ounces of Pinex fifty cents worth) in a pint bottle, and add the Sugar Syrup. This keeps perfectly and has pleasant taste-children like it. Braces up the appetite and is slightly laxative, which helps end a cough.
 You probably know the medical value of pine in treating asthma, bronchitis and other throat troubles, sore lungs, etc. There is nothing better. Pinex is the most valuable concentrated compound of Norway white pine extract. rich in guaiacol and all the natural healing pine elements. Other preparations will not work in this formula.
 The prompt results from this inexpen. sive remedy have made friends for it in thousands of homes in the United States and Canada, which explains why the plan has been initiated often, but never successfully.

T. H. Motion Expresses Opinion on the Supreme
 Court Reversal

In commenting upon the supreme court ruling in the Baily and Howard tax case yesterday. which involves the re- cent tax increase fight. waged before the board of revenue, T. II. Motion, chairman of the citizens committee. which opposed the cases before the board of revenue said:
 hope the supreme court will never render any decision that will cause me to lose respect for that tribunal. and 1 do not propose to criticise the decision. My understanding of the tax fight now Is that it places the cases back where they were, that is. all tax payers in- creased may. and should appeal to the circuit court. l advise this feeling that there cannot be found any jury which will differ from the verdicts reached by the board of revenue.
 'The appeal to the supreme court was merely move to get the increases stopped. and does not, so I believe, inter- fere with the right of tax payers to carry his individual case to the circuit court"
