FlOy6 Allen Convicted of Murder.

Floyd Allen, tried by a jury at
Whitesville, Va, has been convicted
of murder. He was adiudged guilty
for the killing of the judge and sew
eral officers of the court at Whytes-
vile. 1t is reported that he cow
cred with fear when the verdict was
announced. This is not surprising.
1t is generally the way of the bully.
We have known personally a bully
who would terrOrize a whole neigh
bOrhood but who fled as cur, when
dragged into battle by his comrades
appointed to hold him in action.

Gas Well on Fire.

1t was generally reported and
credited last evening that the gas
we'll was on fire. Fortunately this
report was the fabrication of some
individual who, perhaps, would be
filled with rejoicing if the we'll was
fired or was dead.
The burning of a house in Ingle-
side, near the Fair Grounds, doubt
less gave rise to the report.

. The Legislature and It's Duty

1t has been suggested that soon
after the inauguration of Governor
Hall there should be provided the
necessary appropriations and then
an adjournment Of the Legislature
should follow for six months or
more.
This suggestion is ridiculous and
has for its aim the delay of neces-
sary reform legislation.
The people shall expect the Legis-
lature to do its full duty. There is
legislation of great Importance
which must receive immediate at
tention.

The spectacle of the Wisconsin, In

the income tax law Of this state as a
panacea for all the evils of taxation
to the people of Illinois will evoke a
broad grin all over Wisconsin. How

one of the most unpopular, unfair, and
positively harmful measures ever plac-
ed on the statute books of this state
and that is saying a good deal when

The tax commissioner should do a
little travelling in his own state and
find out how the people feel toward
the law he is recommending so highly
in Illinois.

Milwaukee Attorney Gives
Opinion on Statute Gov
erning Saloon Licenses.
SHOWS WHEN COUNCIL ACTS

| The city attorneys Office in the city
of Milwaukee has handed down an
| opinion of the Interpretation of the
Baker law regulating the issuance of
saloon licenses which will be of great
| interest to people in Kenosha who
have taken an interest in the enforce.
ment of the statute. The opinion is
written by E. L. Mcintyre an assistant
in the office
| The opinion states four cases in
which new licenses may be granted I'M
der the law, which restricted saloon
licenses to 2,172 in Milwaukee, the
number in existence at the time of the
passage of the law in 1907. The four
cases enumerated by the city attor-
ney are:
Where the owner refuses to lease
for saloon purposes.
2-Where the place is destroyed by
| fire or the elements.
3-Where a license has been refused
by operation of the law.
Where a license has been refused
under the act Of 1907.
In the opinion Mr.. Mcintyre holds
that the council has not the unrestrict-
ed authority to issue number of IL
eenses for locations where none was in
force on or prior to June 80, 1907,
sufficient to bring the total number up
| to 2,172, but that the council had the
authority to issue license for new
location for every license which was in
force at or prior to said date and for
which no new license has been granted
on account Of one of the four reasons
enumerated.
About the city hall in Milwaukee, it
was at first thought this conficted
with the former opinion, which held
that the council had the right to grant
new licenses without regard to the aft,
davits stating that former place
was closed. Mr.. Mcintyre says that
this is not correct, that his former
opinion simply held an affidavit was
one of the ways in which proof might
be given that place formerly used
for saloon purposes had been closed,
enabling the council to grant another
license.

RAN INTO A TAXI-CAB.
Oscar Carter Seriously Injured in Acct
dent at w. Main and Market st.

Oscar Carter, residing at 185 Maple
wood avenue, met with serious injuries
at the corner of West Main and Market
streets just after ten o'clock Wednes-
DAY night when he collided with taxi
cab owned by Clyde Ellis. Carter was
riding on bicycle and as he ran into
the back of the taxi-cab it seems pretty
certain that he was to blame. Carter
was at the police Office this morning
suffering from badly cut head and 2
half dozen bruises on different pares
of his body, but the police took no ac-
tion in the case. Carter was fortunate
to get away without any broken bones
and he will probably recover from his
cuts and bruises within few days.

The desire of the members of the
council to back up the new park com
mission in every way was shown at
the council meeting Monday evening,
and it is evident that the commission
for time at least will find that its
recommendations will be accepted by
the council without question. The
commission got all that it asked for
from the council by a unanimous vote
of that body and the feeling among
the aldermen was that the commits
sion should be permitted to go ahead
with its plans and show what it can
do without being hampered in any
way. The course taken by the council
will undoubtedly be approved by the
people of the city for those who have
given the matter any thought have
long realized that a strictly non-parti-
san commission working with the sole
object of bettering conditions could
DO much for Kenosha. No body Of
men ever appointed on any board OF
commission of this kind ever had a
greater opportunity to be of service tc
the community than the Kenosha park
commission.
