OF the United States government, and
men have been in Havana for the past
year to secure them. After the cele-
bration the films viii be taken to the
principal cities of Florida, where they
will be put on exhibition. Accompany

in the program. The aviation meet

fact the original program as mapped

EASEMENTS ARE SIGNED.
Kenosha Electric Railway Co. Makes
Change in Reading Of Easements.

There will be no perpetual ease
ments to permit the coming of the in.
terurban cars into Kenosha as the Ke-
nosha Electric Railway Company has
changed the reading of the easements
offered to the property owners for sig
nature and the new form provides that
the company shall have the right to
operate the big ears over Milwaukee
avenue, Main street and North Main
street only during the life of the
franchise of the Kenosha Electric
Railway Company. 1t is thought that
this change in the agreements will re-
suit in their being signed by manS
property owners who had declined to
sign under the former provision for a
perpetual easement. The new plan
provides that the easement expires
in 1912.

TO HAVE DELIVERY.
Move on Foot to Extend Carrier
Service to Villages.

Extension of free mail delivery
service to villages and small towns
throughout the country is urged upon
congress by Postmaster General Hitch
cock. He has asked the senate and
house committees on postofiices and
post roads to recommend an appropria-
ton of 100000 to put the village de-
livery service into operation, provid
y that not more than 1880 year
be allowed for the work at any Single
postoffice.
Except on rural routes, delivery of
mail by carriers is confined by existing
law to cities having population of
10000 or more, or annual receipts at
Che postofice of at least 100000 The
carrier delivery service now is Il op.
Grafton in l,514 cities and the carriers
serve an urban population of $4,000
600.
The rural carriers deliver mail Or
$4,000 routes to about 20,000,000. This
leaves between 25,0O000O and 100000
900 people who reside in villages and
small towns without any form of mail
delivery,
"While it is scarcely feasible, ?
said Mr.. Hitchcock today, "to estab-
Esh complete free delivery services in
villages and towns, on account OF the
heavy expense it is entirely feasible
to furnish to the postmasters at these
places comparatively small allowance
that would enable them to employ the
necessary assistance to deliver mail at
residences of their patrons. These peo-
pie now are obliged to call at the post
Office for their mail

The Republican vote was cut con-

some of the wards The Republican can

guard. However, in the wards where
there was a contest the Republicans
remained fairly loyal to their ticket.
The first interest was taken in the
third ward and there the contest was
between John Fl Hegeman, former aid
erman, and T. G. Simmons, president
of the Simmons Manufacturing COM

to 81 for Simmons, while Thomas Scott
was third in the race with forty and

this German rallied to his standard
hundreds of Republican voters whose
aim was to get rid of Scholey and his
administration forces. The north side
bumped the mayor hard and his ma
jority north of the river was greatly
reduced. He was saved in the fourth
and fifth wards where he got large ma
jorities over the other Democratic can
didate. 1t is declared that the fourth
ward brought a large number Of Re
publican votes to the Democratic cam
didates and large majority Of these
are alleged to have gone to Scholey.
Scholey has always had big hold on
the fourth and fifth wards.
The primary came as crushing
blow to the Scholey forces and there
was no rejoicing over the victory of
the mayor for the men who had been
closest to him seem to think that the
small majorities in some of the
wards showed almost certain defeat at
the election twc>s weeks from now.
The heavy vote polled by the head
Of the Democratic ticket pulled through
the nominees in the various wards, all
getting enough votes to, get past the
ten per cent rule,

AS had been expected the Social
Democrats did not make much Of a
ripple in the primaries Tuesday and the
vote of $50 received by Joseph Orth,
the Social Democrat for mayor, did not
indicate that the party had made any
great gains in the city during the past
year. The vote was only a few votes
larger than that cast at the off year
primary a year ago. The vote in The
fourth and fifth wards showed slight
increase for the party, but in other
wards it was about the same as had
been cast year after year for several
years. It is admitted that the showing
was something of a disappointment to
