and Luke was named to make some
investigations in regard to the pur-
chase of gravel. This committee will
seek bids on gravel from railway CON-
panies and private individuals having
pits for sale with a view of aiding
the town officials in getting the gravel
at as low q price as possible. It is
certain that lot of gravel will be
used in improving the roads IN the
county this year.
There was considerable routine bust
ness coming before he board. Bonds
of new county officials were approved
and the county agent was given in
structions in regard to painting the
exterior of the county buildings.
1t is thought tnat the election of
the chairman and the naming of the
standing committees for the year will
greatly facilitate the WORK of the No
vember session of the board and some
of the committees will get busy early
and have reports ready for the board
when it meets for the regular fall
session.
The committee named to investigate
the question of building tuberculosis
sanitarium is headed by Frank Shu-
art, the chairman Of the board, and
this committee is expected to have its
report all ready for the reception of
the board at the first session of the
November session.
It is thought that the assessment
committee will also have its work well
in hand SO that the annual assessment
may be made early in the November
session.

OFFICIALS TO ARRANGE VOTE
Vote May Be Taken by Camps or In
dividual Ballot May Be Sent to Each
One Of the Millicp Policy Holders in
the Organization.

Members of the Modern Woodmen
of America in Kenosha were today no.
titled that they will be given a chance
to vote on the proposed raise in rates
for the order and referendum will
be held at which every one of the mil
lion members of the order scattered
throughout the United States will be
given a chance to have some part in
the rate raise If majority of the
members of the order are favorable
to the change in rates the new rates
will go into effect on the first day of
January next year. In the meantime
all new members taken into the order
will go in under the old rates.
The referendum was provided for by
a bill passed by the Illinois legislature
on Wednesday. The bill caTies an
emergency clause and it is to go into
effect on June 10th. The arrange
ments for the referendum are left en-
tirely with the head officials of the
order, but should any of the members
be dissatisfied with the manner in
which the referendum is being con-
Quoted they will have chance to ap-
peal to a special board made up Of
the Illinois state insurance superinten-
dent, the superintendent of public in
struction and the state treasurer of
Illinois. Under the new law these men
are given the right to make such reg
ulations about the referendum as may
be thought necessary following com
plants by members Of the order.
It is thought that the victory will
eventually be with the officials Of
the head camp as it is believed that it
will be impossible for the so-called in
surgents to muster 100000 members
of the order to vote against the pro-
posed change in rates. It is under
stood that the referendum under the
laws of the order will be by camps
and that the majority Of any camp

ROAD WORK MUST Be RUSHED
Board Expressed Itself as Being OPP
posed to Any Further Delay in Car
rying Out Plans for Road Building,
but Declines to Buy Gravel Pits.

The session Of the county board
was short and to the point for the
members closed up the. business of the
special session late Wednesday after
noon and returned to their homes on
the aftefnoon train. Outside of the
organization of the board no business
of Importance was done save tho fact
that the members went on record as
showing that they were not satisfied
with the way the road work is go
ing in the county. County Highway
Commissioner John G. Williams was
ordered to get busy and see to it that
some of the work outlined for the year
was started in order that it hight be
completed before the end Of the sum
mer. There was long discussion over
the delay in road work and the men,
bers of the board seemed to fear that
the work had been delayed SO long
that it would be difficult matter for
the county commissioner to secure
men for the work which had been
planned. OF course the work is to
be done out in the rural districts and
it is planned that men can be secured
in these sections of the county. Farm
ers, however, are pretty busy with
their own work and they are unwil-
ling to lay aside the planting to work
on the roads.
There was some discussion Of the

pointment Of committee with power

towns in which the work was being
done. However, a committee compos-

TO RUN THROUGH TRAINS.

Announcement is made by the Chi
cago and Milwaukee Electric today
to the effect that they will, be-
ginning the first Of June, run eight
through trains between Chicago and
Milwaukee. These trains will be full
ly equipped with every convenience
and will be the best possible that the
company are able to put out. The
trains will run through the city and
this will mean that the Northwestern
will have competition. The claim is
made that they will run their cars
from Davis street, Evanston, to the
business district of Milwaukee in an
hour and fifteen minutes, which is bet
ter time than the G. 4 N. W. are max.
ing at present.

he himself is not the beneficiary. In
the Wisconsin Republican state con-
vention of 1898 there is very little
doubt that Senator LaFollette could
have, if he lad desired, nominated
Emil Baenscl Of Manitowoc for gov
ernor and thus have prevented the re-
nomination of former Gov. Scofeld
LaFoHette took no such course, how
ever. The senator does not aspire to
be a king maker, but a king.
More than this, new nomination at
Chicago of man who had never been
president might mean good oppor-
tunity for presidential aspirations Of
Senator LaFollette to be postponed for
eight years, and this fact alone would
seemingly be of great influence in not
making Senator LaFollette look with
any great favor on compromise plans.
From the present outlook of the
large number Of possible contingen-
cies which may arise in the Republi-
can national convention it is safe to
say that Senator LaFollette will not
be very far away from Chicago dur
ing that convention. It has been gen
orally believed that he was in Chicago
at the home of relative during the
convention Of four years ago and it is
safe to presume he will be there again
this year, so as to be in close touch
with his supporters all Of the time.
Senator LaFollette knows the value of
personal generalship.

City Sealer Gets Formal Or
der in Regard to Berry
Boxes.
MUST Be PLAINLY MARKED

Felix G. Mayer, local sealer of
weights and measures, has received his
instructions in regard to the law gov
erning strawberry boxes. Merchants
and others who deal in berries, as well
as the growers, appear to be some
what mixed with reference to the law
and is application.
The following letter, received this
morning by the local official, from j..
@. Emery, dairy and food commission
er, at Madison, will explain itself and
be of interest to growers and dealers:
To Sealers of Weights and Measures:
The law, chapter Is, laws of 1912,
requires that each berry box of other
capacity than the quart, pint or half
pint, dry measure, must have tplain-
ly and indelibly stamped or branded y
in color different from the box and in
characters not less than one-half inch
| high, the fraction which shows what
part it's interior capacity is of the
quart or pint dry measure. The quart,
dry measure, contains 1872 cubic
inches.
The following are suggestive frac-
tons, allowing a tolerance not ex-
ceeding per cent above or below:
Berry boxes with an interior capa-
city of 48 to SO cubic inches should
be stamped or branded q.
Berry boxes with an interior capa-
city of 81 to So cubic inches should
be stamped or branded SO.
Berry boxes with an interior capa-
city of SIS to 81 cubic inches should be
stamped or branded 9-1o quart, etc.
Marking with pencil is not compli-
ance with the law.
For their own protection, retail
| dealers should demand of commission
men or wholesalers, if the crates do
not contain standard quarts, standard
pints or half pints, or are not sold
and billed by net avoirdupois weight,
that the berries be billed so as to
show the true fractional part of the
/ quart or pint, dry measure as the case
may be; and the retailer should exact
sufficient legal guarantee that the
boxes are as represented and billed.
They should insist that their invoices
represent the facts in the case.
Very truly yours,
J. Q. Emery,
Dairy and Food Commissioner.
Ex-oficio State superintendent of
Weights and Measures.
