LOST TOO MUCH TIME.
Thos. Hare, Chicago, Says Two Days is a
Lot of Time to Give to Get Married

Thomas Hare, a Chicago teamster,
has been married once and he can be
taken as an authority. 1.-Two days off
is too much time to take to get mar
ried,' Hare declared in Kenosha this
morning. He came to the city with
Mrs. Catherine Dennison, also of Chi
cago, and they brought with them a
dispensation from the bishop of the
Catholic church in Chicago to permit
the ceremony to be performed in this
diocese. Then they ran up against the
Wisconsin law and both Judge Randall
and Judge Taylor declined to issue an
order for the wedding. Hare declared
that he had already taken two days
off and that he could not take any
more to conform with the Wisconsin
law. At that, Thomas and his bride
to-be, went back to Chicago. AS they
are first cousins they must arrange to
take another day off before the first of
next January or the license issued to
them today will be worthless. After
the first Of January the marriage of
first cousins will be barred in Wiscon-

CAN'T MEET HIGHWAY BILLS.
County Cannot Get $500 Due From
State and Contractors Must Wait

One Of the departments Of the county
is having trouble meeting it's bills and
that is the highway department. Con-
tractors who have completed work on
the roads are demanding the money for
the work but there is nothing left in
the highway fund to meet these pay
ments. This lack of funds is due to the
fact that the state still owes the coun-
ty $4,000 for the original apportio on
ment of the state fund. Efforts have
been made to have this money paid over
but as yet the officials have not been
able to make collections.
County Clerk Jones declared this
morning that the county could not pay
these claims until the money had been
paid over by the state The unpaid
contractors, George R. Wade and Olaf
Jorgensen have both made repeated de-
mands on the county for a settlement
on contract and these have been re-
ferred to the state highway commits
sion. The commission claims that the
money is not in its possession but that
it will be turned over just as soon as
funds are available.

Mrs. Herman Hansen Burn
ed on Friday Died at the
Hospital Last Evening
SHOWS CHRISTIAN FORT|TuDE
{ From Saturday $ Daily

Mrs. Olga Kristlna Hansen, wife of
Herman Hansen, who was terribly
burned at her home on Edward street
on Friday afternoon, died at the Ke-
nosha hospital just after eight clock
on Friday evening. Death came after
six hours of almust inhuman suffering.
Mrs. Hansen was one of the most ac-
tive members Of the Danish Lutheran
church and in her last hours she gave
testimony to her faith and the Christ
ian fortitude which she showed while
facing death was wonderful Although
terribly burned on all parts Of her body
she waited patiently for death without
complaint. Just after physicians had
made an examination of her injuries
they declared that she could not sur
vive. Mrs. Hansen called her husband
to her side and asked him to sing,
- Nearer, My God, to Thee" The hus-
band choked with grief, but the in
iured woman took up the refrain of the
old Christian hymn and sang it to the
close.
Mr.. Hansen and the four little chill
dren of the family were at the bed
side when death came as a sweet re-
lease to the sufferings of the wife and
mother. M
Mrs. Hansen was thirty years of age.
She was the daughter of Ole c. Thomp-
sen of Kenosha and was born in Den
mark, Aug. s, 1883. She came to Ke-
nosha when little girl and had spent
nearly all her life in this city. A de-
voted Christian woman she had been
active in the work of the Danish Luth-
eran church and In her death the church
loses one of It's most helpful members.

nosha on February Goth and 9th and
it is certain that these two days will
be red letter days for the people of
Kenosha and Kenosha counties
No less person than Francis e..
McGovern, governor of the state, has

to visit Kenosha and it is thought that
monster meeting will be arranged for
him on one of the nights of the in
stitute. The governor will not come as
a politicians, but as the head executive
Of the state and it. is expected that
he will deliver an address which will
bring the people of this section into
closer relations with the state govern
ment.
The coming Of the governor will be
only one of the features of the big
booster meeting. The committee has
provided for free dinners and suppers
for their guests from Kenosha and Ra-
cine coGnties and the theatres will be
asked 70 cooperate with the retailers
in offering the highest possibl, grade
of amusement for the visitors at both
matinee and night performances.
One of the features Of the two days
meeting will be a cooking school for

to believe thatsKenosha will have $500
people from the surrounding territory

to be widely advertised, both in Racine
and Kenosha counties and committees
of farmers are to be named in each
township Of the two counties to work

tain that the institute will be the big
gest gathering of the farmers and their
wives and children ever held in this
section of the state.

County Clerk Jones Calls At
tention of Town Boards to
the New Election Law.
DAYS OF RUMP CAUCUS OVER

With view of being helpful to the
town officials of the rural towns County
Clerk Russell H. Jones is personally
calling the attention of the officials to
the new law in regard to town caucuses
and elections. The new law puts an
end to partisan fights for election of
town officials and in the future candi-
dates for such Offices will be named at
non-partisan caucus which must be
held at least seven days before the
spring election
The days of the frenzied Saturday
afternoon caucus of the political parties
usually followed by the trump" eau
Gus are over and in the future the peo-
pie of the towns must struggle with the
primary election principle the same as
the city does There will be but one
ticket named at the caucus for the
town and this will have no political
designation. The law does not close
the doors to the man who may be sore
at the outcome of the caucus, but it
makes it harder for him to get on the
ticket Independent of the caucus men
may seek town offices, but in order to
get on the ticket such candidates must
go directly to the people and must cir
culate petitions for nomination which
must be signed by at least ten per cent
of the voters in the town before the
names may be placed on the official
ballot.
At the caucuses to be held this year
caucus committees must be named and
these committees will have charge of
the caucus to be held in the year 1915.
1t will be the duty of these committees
to publish formal notices of the eau
cuses to be held next year and these
must be published at least five days
before the holding of the caucus
In Kenosha county the coming of the
bipartisan ticket viii not make a
great deal Of difference as elections
in the county have been largely non
partisan in the past. In couple Of
the towns party politics have played a
strong part in the town elections.
Many of the leaders in the towns are
not favorable to the new law, but it
must be followed at the spring election.
A refusal to follow the law would make
it impossible for the men elected to
Office to legally qualify for the offices
to which they are elected.

Dean Richards Of University
Shows Weakness of Amer
lean System of Selection
SHOULD Be LEADERS OF BAR

Can America profit by copying the
English reform procedure and method
of appointing and maintaining judges?
Dean H. S. Richards of the Univer-
sity Of Wisconsin Law Schools ans
wers, Yes.
zone would not hesitate to say that
if such practice could be instituted
here declares the dean, 1T would
immensely improve the character and
efficiency Of the bench Y This state
ment he makes after a year abroad
studying court procedure in European
countries.
!" In English courts there is much
formality,' he said in a brief compari-
son Of the court practice in these two
countries. ''But the actual trial pro-
cedure is much simpler than in the
ordinary American court.
"There is little clashing among the
attorneys and seldom any objection to
the introduction of evidence or the
manner of questioning witness. It is
the duty of the judge not only to in
struct the jury On matters of law, but
to comment upon the evidence and its
weight. His instructions are given
informally and in connection with CON
crete matters of evidence.
1.-THE English judges are, without
exception. selected from among the
leaders of the bar. They enjoy large
salaries with life tenure and retiring
pension. In America the most eminent
lawyers are unwilling to accept Judge
ships. The salaries paid are far below
the income of the leaders of the bar.
The office tenure is short, and the recall
tendency threatens instability.
Another leading factor in the eff
fciency Of the English court is the
character of the bar. All would-be
solicitors must be enrolled in the Inns
of Court or with the Law Society for
two or three years before they are call
ed to the bar. During tdis time they
are in constant association with lead
ing lawyers and are stepped in the
traditions of the profession. The re-
suit is a common professional attitude
to which the American bar is as yet
a stranger. And while the American
law schools are much superior to those
of England, yet the English barrister
as a class has the advantage of a more
thorough preliminary education, large
per cent being university men.

there is little chance of catching any
of them unless the women who are an
noyed will report promptly to police
headquarters. A call to the main office
