Coming just as the damage from the
ice storm of month ago had about
been cleaned up, the storm of Friday
morning sent the repair gangs of the
telegraph and telephone companies to
working overtime. A glance at the ex-
pense account of any company main
tanning overhead wires for the past
two months would explain why the.
paper profits shown by the promot-
ers of various companies which have to
maintain overhead wire systems do not
always materialize.

The decision of the railway commits
sion that the Chicago and Milwaukee
Electric must take steps to protect the
Prairie avenue crossing of the line and
that adequate protection must be fur
nished before July 1st sustains all of
the claims made by the people who
have to use that street. The case was
so plain against the company that it is
surprising that the company decided to
contest it and that protection was not
furnished at this crossing without
waiting for an order from the commits
sion. If the city does as well in all of
its other appeals to the commission as
if has done in this one the people viii
eventually get somewhere near the SER
vice and protection to which they are
entitled.

GRANTS TWO DIVORCES.
Judge Relden Quits Criminal Gases
to Decide Family Spats Thursday.

Judge Belden in the circuit court
took his mind off Of criminal cases on
Thursday afternoon long enough to sit
as judge of a court of domestic rela-
tions and while sitting as such he sign
cd two DEGREES for divorce. The first
was in the case Of Mary Nelson vs..
Chas. Nelson. The couple were married
more than twenty years ago and the
decree was granted to the wife on
charges Of cruelty, there being no APP
pearanee on the part of the husband.
The second case was that of Sophia
Mahaney against Peter Mahaney The
charge of cruelty and desertion was
alleged in this case and it was grant
ed without objection.

MANY MERCHANTS DELINQUENT
Garnishee Actions to be Started to
Stop Payment OF Salaries of Men
who Refuse 10 Pay Income Taxes
Court Costs VIII be Double Amount

A moving van is to be called into
service in an effort to collect the per-
sonal taxes Of some of the delinquents
on the city tax rolls. The city treasur-
er has been directed by the finance
committee Of the council to get busy
and either get money or something
from which the city can raise money
enough to meet these delinquent taxes.
Main street stores, stores in the
suburbs and stores in the territory be-
tween are in arrears for taxes Some
of them have been delinquent in past
years, but the present city administra-
ton does not intend to allow these
people to slip away this year. Some
of the places have changed manage
ment since the taxes were assessed but
the same stock that was taxed is still
on the shelves and the city plans to
get enough of it to pay for the taxes.
The managers of some of the places
where personal taxes have not been
paid have been among the first to
protest against peddlers working in
theNcity and they have declared to the
police officers that as tax payers they
are entitled to the protection of the
city Kenosha is rapidly getting to
be city and departments in stores
are found to be under different man
agements and these have caused trou-
BILE for the tax gatherer.
The city attorney has notified the
city officials that the city has a per-
feet right to swoop down and take
property Of delinquents on the per-
sonal property rolls and it is pretty
certain that if this opinion is follow
ed in all cases the city hall will be
filled with stocks of goods. However,
it is certain that in this way the col
lection of the taxes can be secured.
In past years efforts to evade the
personal property taxes have been in
a measure successful, but this year the
officials are going to make a determin-
ed effort to make those who profit by
doing business in the city pay some
little of the cost of operating.
1t is not possible to seize personal
property to force the collection of
taxes assessed against incomes, but it
is declared that garnishee suits may
be brought to stop the pay Of salaried
men and force them to pay income
taxes. There is large number of de-
linquents on the income list and City
Attorney Slater has been directed to
start suits in these cases to force these
men to settle up. 1t is expected that
the bringing Of the suits will result
in a lot Of these men paying. In some
cases the amounts delinquent amount
to from 500 to $50 and it is thought
that the council can proftably take
these cases into court. The court
costs will of course be added TO the
amount of the taxes collected so that
in the end the men who are delinquent
will pay considerably more than the
original assessment. This will be es-
pecially true of the men who have been
assessed only small sums. In these
cases the costs of the case in court
will be considerable in excess of the
income tax.

1t is evident from the statistics of
parcel post business for January and
February that the public likes this way
of sending goods. In the whole United
States about 50,000,000 parcels were
sent in February, against about 49,
100000 in January. In Chicago $780,
$40 parcels were handled in February,
in New York 4,102,010, in Boston l.
$780, in Cleveland 1,226,025 and in
ST. Louis 1,069,305 This is a remark
able and high favorable showing. The
Chicago record is demonstration of
the readiness with which the popula-
tion in and about the city make use
Of Improvements.
Like the postal savings banks, the
parcel post was established on con-
sentative lines and after its success
had been demonstrated in other coun-
tries An honest purpose seems to ex-
ist on the part of the postal authori-
ties to make the parcel post service
useful to the public. Congress should
not be Indifferent to the need of amend
ing the parcel post law; an amendment
already needed is one that will permit
the deposit of parcels in boxes or at
numerous substations for collection in
cities. With the right support and
management the parcel post cannot fail
to prove highly and increasingly use
full to the nation.-Record-H Herald.
