TO ELEVATE IN RACINE.

Racine is going to beat Kenosha 70
it in the matter of elevation of the
tracks of the Chicago and North
western Railway Company. The en-
gineers who have been at work on the
Kenosha plans have been instructed to
go to Racine and make plans for the
elevation of the tracks in that city
and it is stated that the matter will
be taken up with the Racine city
council within the next few days.
The Racine aldermen seem favorable
to elevation and it is expected that
plan acceptable to both the city and
the company will be worked out in a
very short time. It is probable that
the elevation in Kenosha will be at
standstill until after the engineers Of
the company have worked out their
newer problem In Racine.

HIT AMATEUR OPERATORS.
Federal Agents to Destroy Wireless
Plants Interfering With Government

Local amateur wireless operators are
facing a situation today which may
put an end to their operations in this
locality as result of a crusade start
ed by United States agents in Chicago
where they wrecked four amateur
plants and ordered the owners of them
to desist in the future from operating.
Some time ago warning was sent out
by the government against amateurs
using wave lengths in excess of two
hundred meters but these orders are
declared to have been generally dis
regarded. This indiscriminate sending
Of messages has interfered greatly
with the government messages. Some
of the amateurs have been calling boats
of land stations for the purpose Of
kidding" with the other operators
and this it is declared is danger
Gus practice, and is in violation of the
federal law.

he says:
1 have considered the question OF
becoming a candidate for the Repuo-

have consulted large number of

and have received a great amount OF
encouragement. AS result OF my in

at the primaries for the Republican
nomination for Congress from this DIS

country next year. This nation never
has prospered except under a Repub-

everyone desires prosperity l have
been a lifelong Republican and am
thorough believer in Republican prin-
ciples, including protective tariff.
The question of tariff is bound to
become a greater political issue than
it has ever been before. due to the
fact that this country will again be

European labor after the present war
is over.
The Republican party has never
honored Marion county with nomi-

that the time has come when the nom
