City.and County Officials Co.
operate in Effort to Cut
Down List of Dependents
TAKE FAMILY TO CHICAGO

City and county officials are CO.
operating in an effort to reduce the
pauper list of the city and county and
this morning County Clerk Russell II.
Jones and Chief Of Police O Hare left
for Chicago taking with them a fami-
I1y of seven who had demanded aid
from the city. An investigation re-
yealed the fact that the husband and
father had not been caring for the
| family and it was found tht the peo-
pie had lived in Kenosha but short
time. The members of the family with
the exception of the mother, objected
to deportation to their former home
in Chicago, but the officials insisted
and they were bundled on board the
train and sent to Chicago. In Chi
cago Clerk Jones and Chief o Hare
turned the company over to the poor
commissioner of that city and demand
ed that he make provision to care for
them 1t is said that a number of
similar cases have been discovered by
the officers and they will see to it
that the families are sent back to
Chicago.
Alderman Jacob Saftig, head of the
pauper committee of the council, has
been kept busy hearing complaints for
aid since the first coming Of the real
winter weather and it is found that a
number of these families were made up
of people who had come in from other
cities and who had lived in the city
but short time. County Agent Jones
at once assured the officials that he
would cooperate with them in the re-
moval of such families. Several fami-
lies of aliens are seeking aid from the
city and in some cases it has been less
than year since these people came to
Kenosha from some of the European
countries. Alderman Saftig has sought
the information in regard to these
cases from the steamship companies
and wherever it is possible these COM
panies will be directed to return the
people to the countries from which
they were brought.
The officials seem to be of the opin-
ion that an effort is being made to
impose on the good nature of Keno
sha and for this reason prompt action
will be taken in all cases where it can
be shown that the people seeking help
should be cared for by officials of
other cities or other countries. 1t is
declared that it is lot cheaper for
the city to provide for the sending of
these people back to other countries
rather than to continue the support of
the families.

{ Mr.. Fisher was receiving the congrat-
ulations Of the members Of the bar on
his appointment this morning and it
can be said that The appointment was
a very satisfactory one to the attorneys
Of the city. In fact Mr.. Fisher had
been. given the practically unanimous
support Of the bar before the appoint
ment was made. The appointment is
made without any length Of term be-
ing stated it being along the same
lines as that of court commissioner.
Mr.. Fisher will file his official oath
Of office at once and will appear as
the representative Of the state in all
divorce eases in both the circuit and
municipal court in the future.
The new divorce counsel IS one of
the best known of the younger at
torneys of the city. He was graduated
from the Cornell University Law
School and since his graduation he has
been associated with his father, Peter
Fisher, in the practice of law. During
his college courses he made special
study of the law of divorce and he
will bring to the office an understand
ing Of these laws which will be of
great value to all litigants in the di-
vorce court.
The office of divorce counsel is con-
sidered the most important appointive
Office in the gift Of the circuit Judge.
Under the new law the counsel is
called upon to protect the interests of
the state in so-called uncontested di-
vorce actions. During he y ar just
past Attorney Drury in .uc capacity,
appeared in court in thirty-six cases.
In many of these cases the DEGREES
were held UP until the defendants were
given full information as to the
charges made in the bill for divorce
and given a chance to answer these
charges.
Circuit judges throughout the state
declare that the new law providing
that the state be represented by coun-
sci in all Of these cases has done much
to bring better conditions il connec-
tion with the granting of divorces.
The law provides that copy of
every divorce action must be served on
the divorce counsel and his appearance
in court must be- noted before the de-
cree is granted.

NAY QUIT ZION CITY
Marshall Field Co. Said to
Consider Plans for Re-
moving Lace Plant.
BUY BUILDING IN CHICAGO

Reports being sent out from Chicago
are to the effect that Marshall Field
and Company, owners Of the big lace
plant at Zion City, fonndeil by the
late John Alexander Dowie are plan
ming to remove the plant to Chicago.
The story of the proposed removal
Of the plans. is generally credited at
Zion City and men who have been EN-
ployed in the plant who own homes in
Zion City are seeking to secure en-
Ployment in Kenosha. 4.
T. M. Eddy who is in charge Of the
lace business for the big Chicago COM
pany has sent out a denial Of the
story. There are 200 men and an
equal number of women and girls EN-.
ployed at the plant. At Zion it is
claimed that the Chicago owners of the
plant are worn out with the chickering's
at Zion and they are unwilling to con
tinue under the circumstances. Many
Of the Zion people seem to think that
the announcement sent out from Chi
cago is good deal in the nature of
a bluff aud that it is being made for
the purpose of bringing peace to Zion
City.
The removal Of the lace plant would
cripple Zion City as it is the only big
employing company in Zion. The re-
ports from Chicago indicate that the
removal of the plant would take place
about the first Of April. 1t is known
that people interested in Zion CITY
have taken up the matter with the
head officials of the Marshall Field
Company and they are hopeful that
the operation of the plant will be CON
tiEued at Zion.
