FIND TOO MUCH OPPOSITION
Property Owners Contest any idea of
Making Assessments Against Proper
ty and Chairman Of Committee VIII
Recommend Street Protection Only.

Alderman John Willems, chairman of
the committee on breakwater and har-
bors of the common council declared
this morning that the committee had
decided to abandon the plan to secure
the opening of park at the north end
of Lake avenue and at the meeting of
the council on Monday evening re-
port will be presented recommending
that the council make provision for the
protection of the end of Lake avenue
and abandon all other projects proposed
for the improvement of the end Of the
street. The committee was prompted to
take this action on account of the lack
of cooperation among the people dir
ectly interested in the building of the
breakwater and the opening of the park.
Week after week Alderman Willems
approaching the great value that such
park would be to the north wards
of the city sought further time in or
der to take the matter up with the
property owners but the people to be
directly benefited have shown a spirit
of fight on everything connected with
the proposed breakwater and park.
81 was interested only in securing
this Improvement because believed it
would be great thing for the people
of the Seventh and Eighth wards, =
said Alderman Willems this morning
"but / see now that these people are
absolutely opposed to the improvement
and the committee agrees with me that
the city should drop the plan regardless
Of the fact that permission has been
given for a bond issue to provide for
the construction of the breakWater.
The committee has a report prepared
and it will recommend the building of
a protection to the end of Lake avenue
We believe that this amount of work
can be done for less than thousand
dollars and that such breakwater will
entirely protect the property of the
city. have done my best to get the
people to see the value. of the plan as
originally proposed but if I am to con
tinue working for the plan I shall be
forced to resign and move out of the
ward on account of the determined OBJ
position of some of the property own
ers.''
The plan to secure this park has been
under consideration for years but wher
it was suggested that it might be nee
essary to make some levies on the prop
erty to be benefited to complete the
breakwater the opposition to the plan
at once became apparent. All efforts
to remove this opposition have beer
without result and the opposition is
stronger now than ever.

County Clerk Jones Receiv-
ed Annual Supply of Hunt
ing Licenses Today.
SHORTEN SHOOTING SEASON

County Clerk Russell II. Jones today
received from the secretar~ Of state the
annual supply Of hunting licenses and
the issue Of the licenses will be started
at once. Under the provisions of the
new law the licenses will not go into eff
feet until September Z. This is week
later than in former years. Keno
sha county has been given 1900 licenses
this year and it is probable that the
clerk will be forced to order a second
supply before the season of shooting is
over. In the past few years the demand
for state hunting licenses has been
greatly increased in this county. In
this time scores Of parties of Kenosha
hunters have secured permanent hunt
ing lodges in the northern woods and
many of these lodges are opened with
the first of the fall shooting and kept
open until the opening weeks Of De-
cember Some of the hunters have ex-
pended considerable sums in improving
lodges and the property about them.
It is claimed that Kenosha sends more
hunters into the woods annually than
any other county in the state. This is
especially true of the deer season. It
is estimated that more than 400 Keno
sha men and women went to the north
ern woods last season to shot deer and
a great majority of them secured the
one deer allowed by the law.
There is no change in this provision
of the law this year and the one deer
is still the maximum for hunters.
The state has retained the present
system and one of the green tags is
sued with the license must be placed on
the carcass Of the deer while the other
must be returned to the state game
warden by the company shipping it.
Charles A. Stuart, designer for the
Simmons Manufacturing Company, Sc
cured the first of the 1913 licenses to-
day and the clerk expects grand rush
for licenses during the next few weeks.
The fee for the license is a dollar as in
other years. So many changes have
been made in the game laws this year
that County Clerk Jones is calling es-
peeial attention to the laws whenever
he issues a license. Within few weeks
he viii have a generous supply of the
state booklets containing copies of all
the laws relating to the protection of
the game.

AUTO CLUB HOLDS LOVE FEAST
Celebration at Elks Club Rooms Marks
End of the Fight to Secure Road
Fund for the County This Year-To
Seek More Than State Allotment.

A. R. Hirst, chief engineer of the
Wisconsin State Highway Commission,
paid high tribute to the Kenosha Auto
mobile Club and Kenosha county when
he was the guest Of honor at an in
formal meeting and smoker given by
the members Of the automobile club
at the Elks Club on Wednesday even
ing. Mr.. Hirst in his address declar-
ed that there were few counties in the
state that had showed such an inter
est in roads as had been shown IN Ke-
nosha county and that no club had
done more to boost the building OF
good roads in the state than the Keno.
sha Automobile Club. He compliment
ed the club on the clean campaign
which it had conducted to get funds
for the roads and declared that the
work done by the club was entitled to
the highest praise from all people in
terested in road Improvement. He took
up the question of the fund collected
for the improvement of South Ashland
avenue and stated that it would be
impossible for the treasurer Of that
town to accept this money on account
Of the fact that the petitions asked for
The construction Of concrete roadway
twenty feet in width and under the
state law the roads may not be built
wider than eighteen feet. The com
mittee had collected $2,015 for the
Sheridan road improvement and even
though this road did not win one OF
the prizes the donors Of the funds had
asked that the money be paid into the
town treasury to secure road improve
ment. Mr.. Hirst suggested that an eff
fort be made to have the petitions
changed so that this money could be
accepted and the work done in keep
ing with the provisions of the state
law
He said that few counties in the
state would claim more money than
had been allotted by the state and
that there was strong proba bility
that Kenosha county would get good
slice of the state road fund in Sec
ond allotment. The reports made to
the club made it certain that the
amount to be demanded by this county
would be greater than the amount ap-
portioned to the county from the state
road fund.
Following the address by Engineer
Hirst there were short addresses by
members Of the club. M. A. Kent, who
has been most active in secd.ing sub
scriptions for the road building work,
has announced that he will probably
leave the city later in the year and
the club in recognition of the splendid
work he had done in securing the large
fund raised this year, gave him a
unanimous vote of thanks. He was
assured that the work had been appre-
ciated by the entire membership Of
the club.
After the formal meeting was over
an informal smoker was held in which
plans for funds for the coming year
were discussed.
It is said that the Kenosha Auto
mobile. Club is taking more active
| interest in road improvement than any
similar organization in the state.
Nearly all of the work for roads in
the county this year was due to the
activity of the club last season.

twelve years in the Great Slave Lake
country, that the wood buffalo was a
distinct species. At that time Seton in

was nothing more than an off-shoot of
the ancient wood buffalo stock which
had exclusively inhabited this continent

that they are related by blood or mar

Despite the many legal and financial

or without Lamar, he found time to play
a pretty conspicuous part in Republican
politics In 1897 he was elected president

he found It expedient to resign the place,

again elected and served. He was
strong Platt man. and later he followed
