PAYS 500 AND COSTS.
Man Who Drew Revolver on Police Of
ficer Gets Off With Limit Fine.

Frank Shelovick, arrested on We'd
nesday night on charge Of carrying
concealed weapons, was arraigned be-
fore Judge Randall in the municipal
court late Friday afternoon and he en-
tered plea Of guilty to the charge Of
carrying concealed weapon. He was
arraigned under the state law and
Judge Randall imposed the limit fine
of 800 and the costs of the action
with an alternative of four months at
hard labor in the county jail. The de-
PENDANT paid the fine and costs and was
discharged. 1t is possible that sec
ond warrant will be issued for Shelo-
vich on charges of pointing revol-
yer at an officer, but he will be given
a chance to make good and the other
charge will be held in reserve pending
his good behavior.

According TO an official statistical
abstract, the national debts of the
world have doubled in the last forty
years and have increased twenty per
cent in the last decade. The present
total-not all the colonies haxing been
heard fronts $42,0o0,00o, 0O0-a stag
gering total, surely, if figures mean
anything to the average taxpayer.
To some extent, to be sure, the
growth of national debts is due to the
naturalization of railroads, telegraphs
and other utilities. In other words,
some of the added indebtedness repre-
sents industrial and productive enter
prise. But the bulk of it is attribut-
able to wars and preparations for war
fare. Yet, as things go in this world,
the last forty years have been years of
relative peace. There was the Russian
war with Japan, the sort of war; in
South Africa, the Cuban war, and
Italian wars, etc., but in Europe the
peace has been kept, except in the Bal
kans. What would the national debt
have run up to if Germany, England
France, Italy and Austria had drifted
into that dreaded general Euro
pean' warf
The figures argue eloquently for
naval holidays and for limitation of ar
maments and defense budgets by in
ternational agreement. Industry and
labor cannot stand indefinite additions
to national debts. The senseless.
tranzied, armament rivalries must stop
some time, if bankruptcy and repudia-
tion are to be averted. The sooner.
then the betterERecord-H Herald.

TO NORTH OF GRAND AVENUE
All of Rice Park and the Hoyt-Newell
Subdivision to be Included in a Dis
trict in Which Business Houses will
be Limited to Three Streets.

Plans to set aside great residence
district for the city north Of Grand
avenue were outlined by the special
committee of the council in charge Of
this work at meeting held at the
city hall on Friday evening and City
Attorney John G. Slater is now busy
drawing up an ordinance providing for
the district and it will be presented
to the common council at the meeting
on next Monday evening. The district
will include all Of Rice park subdivi-
sion and all of the Newell Hoyt divi-
sion, all lying to the north of Grand
avenue. Stores and other business
places are not to be barred entirely
from the district and three main streets
have been named as business streets.
These streets are Grand avenue How
land avenue and Fremont avenue No
property fronting on these streets will
be included in the proposed residence
district but it is the plan of the COM
mittee to have all other streets i'm this
section free from stores and factories
|
Thus far no stores or factories have
been built ON any Of the streets i'm the
district and it will be impossible for
such places to go up before the ordi-
nance is acted on by the council.
The committee is considering other
districts and ordinances will be intro
duced to cover such districts during the
closed building season.
"We want to move with all possible
care in the outlining of residence dis
tricts, said Chairman August Kisten,
following the meeting of the commit
tee. "It is not the purpose of the COM
mittee to interfere in any way with any
legitimate extension of trade or indus
try What we want to do is to pre-
serve few streets and as many as
possible which may be. for exclusive
use as residence streets. The commit
tee is receiving petitions from proper
ty owners in various parts Of the city
and these will be acted on just as rap
idly as possible. The committee finds
that the selection Of the streets is
something of a problem on account of
the fact that the neighborhood stores
have been built in many sections of
the, city. Some people seem to think
that the council can force these stores
out Of business, but such is not a fact.
The ordinances when passed may only
limit future building in the city There
will be little building during the win
ter months and property owners will
have plenty of time to lay plans for
these districts before the work Isl start
ed in the spring.
The committee has not outlined any
general business and residential dis
tricts in the city as this is almost I'M
possible to do. The members Of the
committee hold that the property own
ers have a right to be heard III this
matter and that the majority voice of
the property owners should control in
the same manner as in any other work
done by the city. It is not probable
that action will be taken by the COM
mittee to put any block or series of
blocks in a residence district without
a petition either written or verbal from
the property owners directly affected.

In the four years since the law went
into effect, the inheritance tax law has
raised upwards Of four million IN
revenue. "A greater percentage OF
the revenue should remains in the
counties where it originates. The
state takes too much Of this money.
1t would mean a good deal to Kenosha
county if say ninety per cent Of the
amount paid here in inheritance taxes
had been left in the county treasury.
We could have had tuberculosis hos
pital, a training school for teachers,
and a workhouse without taxing the
people Of the county dollar.

The school board made no mistake
in buying the piece Of property on
Division street adjoining the Gillett
school. Ia the opinion Of real estate
men who are competent to judge the
board acquires the land at fair price
and it will certainly increase rapidly IN
value. Moreover it will be worth more
to the board for school purposes than
to anyone else. 1t is certain that a
new school building will be needed in
that section Of the city before very
long and the board might have been
forced to pay a much higher price for
a suitable site had it waited until it
was ready to build before coming into
the market for one. The plot of
ground would have been an ideal site
for a public playground and it has
been used for that purpose for many
years by the children and young men
of the north side, but the claims of the
schools are paramount. The children
of the Gillett school have always used

chase of the land by the board will
not make much difference to them, but
it will deprive the people of the north
side of a much needed recreation
ground within two or three years when
it becomes necessary to build on it.
Until work on the new building is
started, the board should place no I'M
necessary restrictions on the use of
this field by the general public outside
of school hours when it should be re-
served for the children exclusively.

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1913.

1t will be impossible to keep the ex-
else question wholly out of the coming
state campaign, but the extent to which
it is made an issue will depend largely
on the candidates who enter the race
for Office. If the politicians could have
their way it would never be mentioned
and none Of them will take definite
stand on the question unless forced
to it.

SHOWS BOND ISSUES.
City Clerk Furnishes Interesting Facts
to Federal Officials.

City Clerk George W. Harrington
this morning made very interesting
report to the department. Of commerce
of the United States government. The
report shows that the bonded indebt-
edness Of the city at the present time
is $4,000 and that the city has a
further indebtedness of $500 for the
purchase of voting machines This re-
port does not include the two bond
issues amounting to $4,000 recently

bonds have all been issued for two
years or more. The issues listed by
the clerk include:

The above total Of $4,536.59 are the
disbursements of the municipal court
which can be properly considered as
maintenance when a comparison is
made Of the present system with the
former justice court system. The NUM-
cipal court has jurisdiction, not only
of violations of the city charter and
ordinances, but jurisdiction of civil
cases and all actions and proceedings
where the amount involved exceeds the
jurisdiction of justice of the peace,
but does not exceed the sum Of five
thousand dollars. The court also has
Jurisdiction of all actions triable by
a justice of the peace where the amount
involved does not exceed two hundred
dollars, and also has the power to hold
preliminary examinations. IF these ex-
aminations had been held by justice
Of the peace or court commissioner dur
ing the year reported upon the ex-
pense to the county would have been
at least six hundred dollars
The court also has the right to try
all criminal actions known as felonies
where the maximum punishment i'm
posed by the statute does not exceed
five years in Waupun. In exercising
