Kenosha Supporters of Equal Suffrage
Have Interesting Meeting.

Tuesday afternoon at the meeting Of
the Political Equality League the as
ISOLATION by unanimous vote changed
its name to the Kenosha County Equal
Suffrage League. In announcing it's

in quoting an original definition of
equal suffrage lately formulated by a
prominent citizen of Kenosha which
satisfactorily sets forth the fundamen-
tai doctrine of its creed. equal
suffrage is permitting one-half the
race to enter into council with the
other half in matters affecting their
common welfare The program of
the afternoon was exceptionally inter-
esting. Mrs. Richard Welles was most
happy in her graphic and humorous ac-
count Of the public hearing of the suff-
rage bill in Madison and Of the share
which Kenosha women took in secur-
ing majority of votes for the meas
ure in the assembly. Miss Florence
Welles is a thorough student Of Eng
hsh history, English politics and WON
an suffrage and her logical, scholar
ly, moderate exposition Of the "Eng-
lish Suffrage Situation was an intel
lectual treat.

opening of the boxing game in Keno

ready signed agreements to meet in

$4,000 TO McGEEHAN
Commissioners Suit against
Kenosha Electric Ry. Co.
Settled this Morning.
ANDERSON SUIT GOES TO TRIAL

The suit Of Highway Commissioners
Michael g. Mcclellan against the Ke-
nosha Electric Railway company slated
for trial in tne circuit court on Wedues-
day morning was settled out of court
this morning and as result the high
way commissioner is $500 richer than
he was on Monday morning. In his ae-
ton against the company Mcclellan
had demanded damages to the amount
of $4,000 for personal injuries received
while a passenger on one of the cars
OF the local company on May 10th,
1912. The accident happened on Mar
ket street and sudden stopping of the
car resulted in Mr.. Mcclellan being
thrown from his seat with such violence
that his left knee was seriously injured
In his suit he claimed that the injury
was due to the negligence of the com
pany in the sudden stopping of the car,
He did not allege a permanent injury
as result of the accident. Efforts to
settle the case have been made by the
company for some time as the company
did not care to have the action go to
court and set a precedent for such
claims in the future. Announcement of
the settlement of the case was made
at the opening of court this morning.
The circuit court was not busy this
morning as Judge Wickham found it
impossible to get any case to trial dur
ing the early hours of the day. The
suit of Anderson VS.. the United Re-
frigerator and Ice Machine Company
was slated to go to trial but when the
case was called the attorneys represent
ing the defendant company were not
in court. The court took a recess in
hopes of being able to get this case
on trial before the day was over and
if the attorneys fail to appear it is pos
sible that the facts will be submitted
to the jury this afternoon without a
defense.
The case of Piehl against Grow, an
other case long on the calendar was
continued over the term on account of
the absence of the attorneys for the
plaintiff.

HIT AT GOSS|PERS
New State Law Provides
Heavy Penalties for using
False Remarks in State
COURTS TO Be kept BUSY

If you don t want to get in bad and
! aWfully bad, cut out the gossip. Quit
talking about your neighbors or you
are liable to be hailed into the munich
pal court without any warning and be
forced to pay a fine of $500 with an
alternative of long term in the coun-
| ty Jail. This is real advice for Cover
nor McGovern on Monday evening
signed the HGossipo bill recently en-
acted by the state legislature and Of
fcials of Kenosha county are expecting
that there will be lot of prosecutions
under it. The new law is not exactly
law against Islander but it is a law
against gossip. 1t is different from any
SANDER law ever enacted in any state
in the Union and it is passed with the
express purpose of preventing gossip.
Little sighting remarks rejecting up
women are especially taken care of in
the new law which became effective to-
day. Under the law any person who
may make statements rejecting on the
good name or reputation of another is
subject to arrest on a criminal war
rant. The bill is considered the acme
of progressive legislation Abusive
language cases have been frequent in
the courts of Kenosha county but I'M
der the new law it is certain that prose
cutions for SANDER with the heavy pen
atty of the law will be even more nu-
merous.
Judge Randall said this morning:
"Just as soon as the people get ac
quainted with this law the district at
torney will be busy bringing complaints
under it and I expect to give lot of
time to hearing SANDER cases.
The district attorney was not so out
spoken but he admitted that he was
convinced that the law wenld bring a
big increase of business in his Office
just as soon as the people became aware
of the provisions of it. Wisconsin is
getting lot Of publicity as result
of the enactment of the gossip" meas
ure and the manner in which the law
works out will be watched with inter
est. Again the one best bet is, "Cut
out the gossip"
