GOES TO NAMELEss GRAVE.
Body Found Floating in Pike River is
Buried at the City Cemetery.

The body of the unidentified young
man found floating in the Pike River
on last Friday afternoon, found a
nameless grave in the city cemetery
on Tuesday afternoon. Following the
coroner's inquest the body was taken
out and buried without any funeral
services. It had been expected that
friends of Alfred Freeman, a Milwau-
kee musician, would come to Kenosha
and seek TO make certain the identi-
fication Of the body as that of Free
man, but no one came and all efforts
to locate relatives of Freeman failed.
several people came from other cities
hoping to be able to identify the body
as that of some missing relative, but
all of these efforts proved in vain.
The property found in the pockets of
the man has been held in hopes that it
may yet prove valuable in solving the
mystery surrounding the identity Of
the man.

GET BIG SPACE SPACE.
Someone Spends Pages Telling Why
Voters Should Support Amendments
to Constitution Only One Democrat
ic Candidate Gets Picture In Book.

It's here. After waiting in great
suspense the voters Of Kenosha were
relieved this morning when thousands
of copies of tie state campaign pamph-
let reached the city and the mail car
riers were burdened down with the
great weight of political information.
1t will be on. every book table in Ke-
nosha before the day is over and it
can be said that the latest edition of
the states political phamplet is nota-
bic not for what it contains, but for
what it fails to contain. The voter
who takes it up in the cool of the even
ing hoping to advise himself on the
political situation in the state will get
one of the worst foolings ever given
any one. Nearly all of the state
pamphlet is given over to an argument
in favor of the passage of the amend
ments to the constitution. just how
this got into the book is not plain as
the usual Authorized and Paid for
is missing in case of the argument for
the amendments. This spiel urges the
adoption of the amendments and as
serts that they are all opposed by the
Vested Interests. A single page is
taken evidently by the representatives
of the insurance companies to oppose
the amendments relating to state in
surance but their rather modest state
ment is nothing to the sweat" in
favor of the amendments.
The candidates did not loosen to any
great extent to make the pamphlet a
financial success. The republican cam
didates took a total of two pages and
Paul Husting, the democratic candidate
for United States senator, who wants
to be considered progressive even to
his support of the campaign booklet,
stuck for a page. Other than this
there was no mention of candidates in
the books sent to Kenosha. 1t is stat
ed on the cover that the same books
are. used in every senatorial district In
the state but one so that it is gener-
ally believed that none of the candi-
dates for the minor places on the ticket
fell for the state advertising booklet.

EDISON DAY OBSERVED HERE.
Electricians Celebrate 35th Anniver-
sary of the Making of Electric Lamps.

Thirty-fve years ago today Thomas
A. Edison, working in his laboratory,
brought forth the first electric lamp
and today the event is being celebrated
all over the United States and in many
parts of the world. The Edison lamp
has gone through many changes since
the great inventor first utilized the
electric spark for lighting purposes.
The most interesting sEdison Day.
display in Kenosha was in the windows
of the Wisconsin Gas and Electric Com
pany where there was a display Of
lamps showing the development in the
lamp making industry in the thirty
five years. The display showed the
original lamp made by Edison and
models of its successors, including the
giant Mazda lights in use today. All
electric shops in the city had some dis
play in honor of the day.

Mayor CIendenin Declares
People Going to Zion Must
Have Bill of Health.
MAINTAIN RIGID QUARANTINE

Zion City is threatening retaliation
against Kenosha on account of the
small pox situation and this morning
City Health Officer Dr. J. J. McShane
lad call from w. FL. Clendenin
mayor of Zion City Mayor Clendenin
declared that he wanted to be perfect
ly friendly and neighborly in the mat
ter, but that he was of the opinion that
if the city of Kenosha put a ban on
the coming of Zion City people to Ke-
nosha on account Of smallpox there it
should put the same restrictions against
Kenosha people who are working in
Zion City. Mayor Clengenin declared
to DR.. McShane that Zion had some
smallpox cases, but that every posi-
bic thing was being done to prevent
any spread of the disease. In fact
guarantees have been multiplied with
a view of preventing the mingling of
people who have been exposed with
ether people.
The entire east side of Zion City has
been quarantined against the west side
DIR. McShane explained to Mayor
Clendenin that as yet no formal ban
had been placed on workmen coming
from Zion to Kenosha unless it was
known that they had been exposed to
the disease. He declared that the sug-
gestion of the Zion mayor to insist on
the vaccination of Kenosaa people
working in Zion was entirely reason
able and no doubt this course viii be
followed. It is sad that there are
about a dozen Kenosaa people working
in the lace factory al Zion.

CITY 10 PAY MOST or THE TAX
Less Than 100000 of the S11S,12591
Levied Will be Collected in Towns
of the County Amount is Smaller
Than in the Former Year.

county Clerk Russell FL. Jones has
received from the Wisconsin state tax
commission the final report of the in
come tax assessed against Kenosha
county and the amounts to be collect
ed will be certified to the clerks of the
city and the various towns within the
next few days. There is consider
able falling off in the amount of the
income tax this year and with the big
exemptions for payments of personal
property tax it is pretty certain that
the amount realized by the city and
county from the tax this year win be
considerably less than in the former
year. The final figures on the corpora
tion tax reached the clerk on Tues
day. The total of the income tax both
individual and corporation this year is
Sis, 1851 and in the preceding year
the total of the tax was close to $780,
000 There has been a considerable re-
duction in both the individual and cor
poration rolls OF course the great
amount of the tax will be collected in
the city of Kenosha, the total to be
collected in the city being Sill 1876.
The total of the individual tax for the
county is $45,045.86, and of the cor
poration tax $73,O80.23.
An examination of the roll shows
many surprises and the roll indicates
that he income Of corporations in Ke-
county during the year ending Dec. /,
1915, was considerable less than in the
previous year. The amount of tax as
sessed against foreign corporations and
made payable in this county is larger
than in former years, this being about
the only increase that IS shown in the
income tax rolls. The amount of the
tax to be collected in the city and in
the various towns is as follows:
