At a special session of the Wiseon-
sin legislature resolutions were intro
sduced in both houses asking the gov
srnor to cali another special session
Tor the purpose of repeating the brand
new income tax. Il is impossible to
say how much pubic opinion supports
these resolutiers; but the Income tax,
50 Ear, has been failure III every
state that has adopted it. The main
reason lies on the surface The only
way an income tax can be satisfactor-
lily enforced in this country is by tax
ing the income at its source, on the
English plan; and no state has power
to do that. A citizen of Wisconsin,
for example, may derive a large in
|ccme from Steel stock or New York
Central bonds. If he pays state tax
on that income it will be because he
chooses to. The state cannot compel
a corporation in New Jersey or New
York to disclose the dividends and in
terest it disburses in Wisconsin. Or a
Wisconsin capitalist may escape the
tax by the simple expedient of taking
lup residence across the state border.
Most of the larger corporations oper-
ate in many states and. to avoid an in
come tax in WISCONSIN, can reincor-
porate elsewhere. A number of cor
poration removals have been reported
already.
The income tax measure adopted by
the House of Representative this
spring is subject to the same objection.
It ignores all recent experience in tax
ing incomes and, with few unimport-
ant exceptions, makes no attempt to
tax the income at its source It re-
lies upon the statement of the tax
payer-which means, bnoadly speak
ing, that everybody taxes himself.
That tax so applied puts premium
upon falsehood and handicap upon
honesty is perfectly patent. Other OBJ
Jections to, the measure-as that it
makes no distinction between earned
and unearned incomes, or between the
head of a family and a bachelor
have been mentioned already. The
measure is whole generation behind
the times. When we have an income
tax let us start right and abreast of
the procession instead of two or three
decades in the rear.-Saturday Even
ing Post.

HOLD ELECTION ON JULY End
Old Fashioned Methods Will Prevail at
Election of First Ward Alderman.

Old fashioned methods will prevail
at special election in the First Ward
at which the people of the ward will
elect a successor to the late James H.
10 'Brien as member of the Common
Council. This was decided at the
meeting of the Common Council on
Monday evening. The election will be
held on July End. There will be no
primary election, but the non partisan
idea will govern. The plan is to have
as many candidates as may desire
come into the race and the man secur-
ing plurality of the votes will be de-
clared elected. The city will furnish
no tickets for the election and each
candidate must provide his own tick
cts. These may be printed or written
so long as they give the voters a
chance to express their opinion. The
voter may vote for any one he sees
fit, whether that person has tickets or
not
George O'Brien is the only candi-
date so far to announce his candidacy
for the office.

Mrs. Alice Galster, arrested last Sat
urday on serious charges in connection
with the story told by Miss Emily
Stocker, appearing in the Municipal
Court late Monday afternoon and en-
tered plea of Guilty to the statu-
tory charges against her. She paid a
fine Of twenty-five dollars and the
costs of the action. The state charge
of contributing to the delinquency of
a young girl was not urged against the
defendant and it was dismissed on the
payment of the costs. Mrs. Galster
made no statement to the court at the
time Of entering her plea, and she de-
clared that she decided to get rid Of
the charges against her with as little
publicity as possible. The sentence
was imposed with an empty court
room, only a half dozen people being
present when the case was disposed of.

SECURED MANY CONVICTIONS.
Chief Asks that Three Men be Added
to Force and that Auto Patrol Wagon
be Bought for the Use of the Depart
ment- Earn Big Fees in Year.

Chief of Police Owen O'Hare has
completed his annual report for the
year ending June 1st, and it has been
filed with the city clerk. The report
covers the most active year ever
known in the history of the police de-
partment, and it shows that during the
twelve months total Of 1914 arrests
were made on an average of more than
La hundred arrests a month. As IN
other years, the old favorite charge of
|intoxication leads the list and there
were 374 plain and ornamental DRINKS
arrested during the year. Disturbance
is crowding intoxication close for first
honors and this popular charge with
the department was called into service
242 times during the year. Assault and
battery was next with total of liz
cases. Some of the leading causes of
arrest were, using abusive language,
~; speeding an automobile, "a; petit
larceny, 80; vagrancy, 1876; riding
bicycles without lights, Al; fornication,
49, intent to murder, 5. One arrest
for murder was made during the year.
The report shows that of the 1914
arrests, COS paid fines and costs, 431
were turned out, "a committed to Jail,
rs paid fines by serving in Jail, So
were discharged by the courts. The
report shows that during the year as
result of the work Of the police de-
partment, twenty prisoners were sent
to Waupun, this being the largest num-
Der ever sent to the state prison from
Kenosha in single year, In addition
to this were sent to the state reform
atory at Green Bay, to the Industrial
School for Girls at Milwaukee and 6
to the Industrial School for Boys at
Waukesha. A half dozen others were
sent to other state institutions during
the year.
The department answered an aver
age of 40 telephone calls day, there
were 796 calls for use of the patrol
wagon, SO lost children were found
and restored to their parents, and 65
bicycles were recovered and returned
to their owners. 100 dogs were slaught-
cred during the year. The total value
of property stolen and remaining I'M
recovered amounted to but $185.20.
The city lock up has done a great
business in the year that it has been
in existence and there has been to-
tai of 1850 prisoners incarcerated
there. The fees earned by the depart
ment for the city during the year
amounted to $2,132.42.
In the closing paragraph of his re-
port the Chief of Police urges on the
city the need of three more police Off
GERS in order to properly take care of
the work of the department He also
urges the purchase Of an automible
patrol wagon, declaring that the pur-
chase Of such an automobile would aid
very materially in reducing the cost of
the upkeep Of the department. It is
probable that the city council will
take some action on the recommends
tions of the chief at an early session.

ton of the city after such consent
having been expressly given in the
franchise.
The question has been discussed by
your committee, that inasmuch as the
city has no right to stop the operation
of the cars by reason of the consent
given in said franchise, and concedine
that the individual abutting property
owner has some rights, could not the
city intervene in behalf of the proper
tv owner. or prosecute an action on
behalf of the AUDITING property owner.
IF we should recommend such action,
we are confronted with section 2605
of the revised statutes which specific
ally declares that every action must
be prosecuted by the real party in in
Iterest', and it is plain that in such an
action the city would have no standing
in court.
Your committee are favorably in
clined to the demands of the property
owners, but from our examination of
the ordinance and the decisions of our
supreme court, we feel that the city
has no power to stop the operation of
the cars and so report, with permis-
sion, if hereafter the property owners
or their attorneys can satisfy your
committee to the contrary, to be per-
mitted to withdraw this report and to
present a report recommending action
by the city.
