All that need be said at this time
about that new traffic ordinance is
that if it is enforced as the police
claim that it will be the streets of
the city will be good deal safer and
clearer than they are at present.
There is plenty Of work to do under
the ordinance, but it should not be a
very difficult matter to make vast
improvement over present conditions,
if the police really mean business and
show right in the beginning that they
are playing no favorites.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1913-02-06

mainder of the decidedly short session
was given up to routine business.
The council received from Ernst g..
Anderson a voluntary report on the
condition of the Kenosha high school
building and the report was referred
to the committee on buildings and
water works to be taken up with the
members of the board of education.
The police officers will have their
cloak room fitted with modern steel
lockers and the committee ON buildings
was directed to purchase this equip
ment at cost of $203.20.
The question of submitting bond
issue to the voters to provide for the
construction of filtration plant and
other issues for the proposed north
side sewer and the proposed break
water at the north limits of the city
was discussed and the city attorney
was directed to bring in a report at
the next regular meeting showing just
what should be done by the city in
order to bring these matters properly
before the electors.
The city clerk was directed to give
formal notice of an election to fill the
vacancy in the board Of assessments,
caused by the death of the late Henry
w, Biennemann. The council also
went GU record as being in favor of a
complete registration of the voters
and this will be made before the city
election on the dates set by the state
law.
The city clerk was ordered to ad-
vertise for bids for the building of
the new fire station in the third ward.
There was a considerable discussion
of the question Of opening Ashland
avenue from its present terminus to
Caledonia street and the committee
was given further time in which to
take up this matter with the officials
of the N. r. Allen IS Sons Company.
1t is thought possible that a way can
be found for the opening of the street
without resorting to the courts.
The council went on record as be-
ing opposed to the bill proposed in the
Legislature which increases the time
for notices for accidents from fifteen
to thirty days and the city attorney
was directed to go to Madison and file
protest before the committee against
the passage of the bill At the same
time the city attorney was directed to
prepare a bill providing for the publ
cation of legal notices of cities in
daily papers. 1t is understood that
this bill will be introduced by AS
semblyman Pfennig. For years the
state law has made it necessary to
publish the notices of the city in
weekly paper and the members of the
council are anxious to secure some
plan by which these notices may be
given wider publicity.

)NQ|NRy RESOLUTION UNDER DEBATE
BEN R|LEyS NOMINATION REJECTED

Several days ago the house voted
down a resolution by Mr.. Smith OF
Pottawatomie county calling for
committee on investigation and de-
claring that the legislature at the end
of sixty days would recess for three
months while the commit
tee worked. There was adopt
ed instead a resolution by the joint
judiciary committees, that such
committee be appointed but begin
work now, and if there was recess,
the committee could continue during
the interim.
The resolution was made concur
rent, and when it was called up in
the senate an amendment by Senator
Anderson was adopted, eliminating all
references to a possible recess. Sen
ators would be morally bound to agree
to a recess, and, while they might
be willing to do so, were adverse to
amendment was adopted by vote OF
19 to II. No senate members are to
be on the committee for the
reason if impeachment cLarg-
es cre returned the senate would
have to sit as a court to try the
charges. The speaker of the house
is to be chairman of the committee.
When read in the house, Mr.. Durant
presiding, stated that the effect of
the amendment was to limit the in
vestigation to sixty days, or, during
the life of the regular session. Mr..
Smith of Pottawatomie county OBJ
iected to its adoption. He told the
house that resolutions had recently
been adopted in his county which he
would not like to read to the leglsla-
ture.

600 which the insurance companies
are gathering from the people of the
state monthly, saying that it would

GOSSIP OF INTEREST

News Notes About Automobiles and
Their Uses in Town, Country
|, and On Track.

That 1913 VIII be the banner year IN
the automobile business for the local
dealers is already assured. Even at THU
early date several dealers have sold oui
their annual allotment of cars, and are
relying upon drawing from the dealer.
of other cities to make deliveries.
1t is almost impossible to get an inn
mediate delivery on a car. Most pur.
chasers are forced to wait from ten days
to three weeks for delivery. The de-
mand for every class of car is greater
than ever before. More high-priced cars
are being sold here than in any other
year. Orders have been taken for de-
liveries within three or four months.
The local dealers attribute the demand
for cars to the good roads in the near.
by States and to early spring. The last
week Of warm weather has brought the
motor bugs out in full force. and the
sales last week exceed those Of the same
period last year. Another reason ad.
vanced by the local dealers in their as
sertions that this is to be the banner
year is that the change of administra-
tons has caused an upheaval in the per-
sonnet of official circles.
