McGovERN MEN Acg1vH
Former Governor Is Sounding Out Com
ditions in Regard to Candidacy.

Men in Kenosha who are accredited
to be close politically with former Gov
ernor f. E. McGovern are feeling the
pulse of the people of Kenosha county
with a lew Of ascertaining just what
reception would be given the announce
ment of Mr.. McGovern as a candidate
for governor next year. Just what the
result of this pulse feeling will be re-
mains to be seen. Mr.. McGovern had
many strong political friends in Ken
osha county but his strength was large
ly reflection of the old LaFollette
movement and there is some doubts as
to just how he would stand as opposed
to this movement. It is limited that a
new political alliance between Mccoy
ern and LaFollette is one of the possi-
bilities of the coming campaign but
no formal announcement has been made
to this effect. 1T is understood that
Mr.. McGovern is anxious to remain in
public life and his closest political
friends seem to be of the opinion that
his candidacy for United States Sena-
tor as against Senator LaFollette would
be political blunder After the friends
of the governor in the various counties
make their reports he will be in better
shape to decide on his political course.

cussion Of the report mas shown clear
" that the conditions at the Kenosha
city poor farm are not what they
should be and progressive city like
Kenosha will be forced to see that
these conditions are remedied. The in
mates of the poor farm are limited to
few old men who have for the most
part lived miserable lives and they
are entitled to have a decent place in
which to exc out the last miserable
years of their existence. Charity to be
real must be reasonably decent charity.
1T must be the charity that gives some
little comfort without extravaganza
and above all the charity that pro-
vides reasonable safety for life and
limb and protection of the health of
these old men. It is probable that this
is the thing that was sought in the
rather garbled report of Mr. Graebner
and it is certain that it is this kind
Of charity that the tax payers Of Ke-
nosha who are called upon to pay for
the care of these old men would pre-
fer to give them.
Mr.. Graebner, after ten years of
service on the state board, has been
called to a quick stop, but in his being
called, the city of Kenosha has learn
ed new lesson in the demands Of a
practical charity.

A Burglar and a Sermon.

John Holler was burglar. Courts
in two states decided it and he served
time enough in prison to make up
the average working life Of a man.
John Holler just the same preached a
sermon in the municipal court on Tues
day when deserted by friends, removed
from all the glamour which some peo-
pie seem to think associates itself
with crime, he stood alone, his gray
head bowed and took five more years
of penal servitude upon him. There
are lot Of Kenosha boys who seem
to have tendencies toward crime.
They should have been in court and
seen John Holler and heard his story
Holler had been given good educa-
tion in Bohemia. He supplemented
this with night school education in
New York. He was an honest baker
once, but some one impressed him with
the desire to live at the expense of
others rather than by service to Others
Burglary was the way decided. He
took to it like an expert. He got
away with couple of pretty good
jobs ON burglary and found it easy to
live without working. Then the mar
ket for good burglars slumped and the
police forces began to know him as
john the burglar. Burglary is one
business in which advertising does not
pay, and John soon found this out
Fifteen years he labored for the state
Of Illinois without getting cent for
it. He is going to work under just as
hard conditions for the state Of Wis
consin for the next five years and when
he comes out, sixty two years old, he
will be just a burglar. The same in
genuity and labor that Holler gave to
burglary put to any legitimate line of
work would have earned for him a
competency and possibly. high posi-
ton. 1T never paid me, was his
suggestion to the court that sentenced
him. know the game and j know
the end of it. Holler never commit
ted any crime except burglary and yet
this love for the excitement of the
game made his hair prematurely gray
and made him an outcast and human
derelict. just why any boy should de-
sire to follow in the footsteps of
Holler is an enigma that. is hard TO
solve. The story of Holler is the same
as the story Of every other man who
pursues crime as a vocation and it
emphasizes the fact that the only way
to live off your fellow beings is to
live by honest service.

Graebner and the Poor Farm.

Certain functions are delegated to
members of the State Board of Control
and among others are the inspections
of poor farms Of cities and counties
in the state. Kenosha witnessed a
rather humiliating picture of one Of
lis state officials in this line OH Mon
day afternoon when William H. Graeb-
ner appeared before the council and
excused what he admitted to be a
highly colored report of the Kenosha
poor farm, on the grounds that he had
not intended the report for publica-
ton. Literary license has been grant
ed to certain men who deal in vague
nothings on the Imagination under the
guise of poetry, but it had never been
considered that such literary license
was extended to the cold reports of
state officials If the state board of
control is to be helpful, the least that
ran be expected is that its reports will
be founded on facs German Jokes y
rs Mr.. Graebner was inclined to ex-
plain his reports, are hardly consist

PLANTATION of Mr.. Graebner Of his ac-
tion in regard to the Kenosha poor
farm hmped terribly. It was entirely
inadequate and even an abject apology
can hardly be expected to re-establish
the members of the board in the real
standing that they should hold with
the city Nof Kenosha. Zeal for official
duty is one thing and falsifying Of
facts is another. Such report as was
made by Mr.. Graebner could be Of no
value ITO his department. and its value
to the city, if it ever had any, was
lost in the manner in which it was
] written.
