| consumed in the investigation of all
these cases, but we hope that you will
soon get through with the business of
| the term.
The Court is required to especially
call your attention to three matters.
| One of them is the crime of abortion.
1t is made the duty of the Court to es-
| pecially mention that. You are to in
vestigate and see whether there has
been any crime committed under that
statue. Another statue relates to de-
faulters. relating to people who handle
the public funds and are in default.
1t is made the duty of the Court to es-
pecially mention that subject. The
Court has no knowledge of any viola
ton of either of these statutes. The
third subject required to be called TO
your attention is the unlawful use of
cocaine. That is drug that is used
considerably in large cities. | take it
that while 1T is a law covering the
whole State, it was intended to be en-
acted with especial reference to Balti-
more City. Still you have the statute
before you and if there are any viola
lions of it, it is your duty to present.
The sessions of the Court will be
from 10 O'Clock to at least 3 o'clock.
You can send requests to the Court at
any time on any matter and the Court
will respond to your request. You can
now retire and proceed with your de-
alterations.

ROAD ADVOCATES IN SADDLE
Richard A. Dowse Leads in the Voting
for Town Chairman and Entire Ticket
Favored by Men for Road Improve
ment Named by Large Caucus Vote.

Patrick Tobin, long regarded as the
political leader of Pleasant Prairie,
has abdicated his throne, for at the
annual caucus in the town hall on
Friday afternoon Chairman Tobin did
not seek a denomination. He Just
quietly withdrew and told his political
friends who had been strong in his
support for years, that he did not
desire to be chairman any longer. 1t
was an unusual thing for Pleasant
Prairie and it can be said that Tobin
was not permitted to get entirely
out Of the political life of the town
and he was put on as a candidate
far down on the ticket.
Richard A. Dowse, who has been ac-
tive in the younger political ring in
the town and who has been one Of the
promoters of the plan to get better and
more roads for Pleasant Prairie, was
nominated for chairman. The second
man on the ticket is to be John j.
Mahoney, who has been a side super
visor under the Tobin rule. Dowse de-
feated Mahoney in the caucus by a
vote of 1913 to 80. The big issue in
Pleasant Prairie this year is the ques-
tlon Of the bond issue of ninety thous-
and dollars to secure the completion
of the improvement Of all state roads
within the town limits. The plan has
the active support Of lot Of the vot-
ers and the caucus on Friday after
noon was one of the largest ever held
in the town. While not committed to
bond issue it is admitted that Dowse
is very favorable to the plan when
some little difficulties connected with
it have been ironed out.
The formal petition for the presen-
tation Of. the question of issuing the
bonds is now formally before the town
board and it will go on the ballot at
the April election. From the senti-
ment shown at the caucus it is regard
ed as pretty certain that the bond is
sue will be carried. The whole ticket
nominated was as follows:
Town Chairman-Richard A. Dowse.
John j. Mahoney.
supervisors-Henry Riley, Ben Jen-
sen, Hans Hanson, Chris Swanson.
Town Clerk Edward Thomey,
August Keuck.
Town Treasurer - Thomas Yates,
Henry Gunderson.
Assessor - S. B. Cropley, Patrick

STATE AID APPORTIONED.
Kenosha County to Receive S14, 637. 80
from the State for Road
Work in 1916.

County Highway Commissioner John
Herzog on Friday afternoon received
from the state highway commission
the apportionment of state aid for the
building of roads in Kenosha county
in 1916. The county will receive
$14,637.90 from the state road fund.
This is sabout ffty-six per cent of the
amount that would be expected under
the law. The total to be expended in
the county for the 1916 road work is
$65,805.90. OF this amount the towns
have appropriated $25, 1874 and a SINH
lar amount has been appropriated by
the county. The state appropriation
completes the fund. All of this money
will not be spent during the present
year as about $4,000 of the money
raised for road work in 1916 was ex-
pended in the fall of 1915. This
money was expended in the towns of
Somers and Bristol and work for this
year will be curtailed to this amount
unless the members of the town board
decide to expend a part of the 1917
apportionment for this year s work. It
is probable that this win be done.

DEATH OF PETER G, scHAuFEr.

Peter G. Schaufel, aged ffty-three
years, an old resident of the town of
Pleasant Prairie and widely known
throughout Kenosha county, died at
the Kenosha hospital this morning
following an illness from pneumonia.
Mr.. Schaufel was son of the late John
Schaufel, and he was born in the town
OF Pleasant Prairie, December goth.
1862. He had spent nearly his entire
life in this county. He is survived by
his widow and nine children, Henry,
John, Fred and Frank SchaufeI. who
reside in Kenosha county; William
Schaufel Of Detroit; Mrs. Della Aarts
of Chicago; Mrs. Lillian Quinlan of
Chicago, and the Misses Emaline and

Kenosha truck drivers with the United
States army in Mexico.

TRUCK DRIVERS SATISFIED.
Arthur Mink in Letter to Relatives De-
clares that Uncle Sam is Good
Master TO Work For

That the Kenosha truck drivers who
went to Mexico are well satisfied with
the way in which Uncle Sam is taking
care of them is shown by letter just
received from Arthur Mink, one of the
drivers. Mink is with the first com
pany at Columbus. He writes that the
drivers are working between Columbus
and the border camps of the soldiers
and that all of them are well and de-
cidedly well satisfied with the treat
ment they are receiving. He says
nothing about the work of driving
more than that the army is furnishing
every possible guard to the drivers in
charge of the trucks. Every truck
that goes out from Columbus is guard
ed by seven soldiers of the regular ar
my. The work is being organized so
as to make it possible for the boys to
observe hours of work and play. A
camp has been provided for the truck
drivers and they declare that the ra-
lions being provided for them are en-
tirely sufficient. Not one of the mem
bers of the company has suffered from
any illness since they reached the Dor

KEEPS MEN OUT OF PRISON.
Prosperous Conditions Declared tt
Have Big Effect ON Number of
Criminals in the State.

Has the changed industrial condi-
tion in Wisconsin stopped the flood of
the population in the state prison?
Or, has some other influence operated
to bring about the ebb now appearing
in the record? Secretary M. j. Tap
pins of the state board of control says
that, in his opinion, the explanation
lies in the first suggestion and that
because Chimes are better'' there are
fewer men in state prison. Eight
months ago the board Of control was
worried over the prospect, confidently
expecting that by the end of the fiscal
year 1856, the number of convicts
would reach eleven hundred At that
time the population of the prison was
nine hundred and tWenty-one, a rec
ord for the institution. Since then,
however, conditions have reversed and
there has been a gradual decrease until
now the total is eight hundred and
ninety-six. Today the board of con-
troll meets and sits as a pardon and
parole board at the prison and will
probably grant freedom to twenty five
or thirty, bringing the total population
to about eight hundred and seventy.

TRUCK DRIVERS WANT "soAP."
Kenosha Boys in Mexico Find Only
Trouble Failure Of the 'fGhost to

The Kenosha battlers in the chase

SOAP" Some people might be of the
idea that Uncle Sam was not furnish
ing the proper toilet accessories for
the boys who drive the trucks on the
Mexican border, but it is nothing of
the kind. The boys from Kenosha
just wanted to say that they were a
little short of that very useful material
that makes the "mare go. !" To put
it in other language the ghost was not
walking quick enough. Of course, this
was due to the red tape necessary to
get the names of the Kenosha boys on
the federal pay roll and this trouble
is being eliminated just as rapidly as
possible. Spending money was sent to
them from Kenosha and before it
reaches them it is probable that Uncle
Sam will have made arrangements to
meet the pay roll and that the pockets
of the boys wll be jingling with gold
and silver. "All we'll and happy''

an existing system, the conditions
giving rise to the law, the faults to be
remedied, the aspirations evidently in
tended to be effectually embodied in
the, enactment, and the effects and con-
sequences as regards responding to the
prevailing conception of the necessi-
ties of public welfare, should be con-
sidered and the enactment given such
broad and liberal meaning as can fair
y be read therefrom so far as required
to effectively eradicate the mischiefs
il was intended to obviate.
This further reason exists why the
particular words should have broad,
liberal construction; the legislature
exercised particular care to make its
purpose unmistakable, going to the ex-
tent of specially defining the meaning
Of significant words, including the
word employee. Had the purpose
been to make such word as restrictive
as the trial court supposed, it was so
easy to have said, permitted to work
under the laws of the state, subject
to prescribed conditions and restric-
tions, the fact that no such restrictive
words were used is well nigh conclu-
sive evidence of a purpose to use the
words in the sense of, permitted to
work under the laws of the state at
any gainful occupation under any
circumstances.
We reach the conclusion that the
legislative purpose was as above indi-
Gated, and the words ('who, for the
purposes of section 2394-S, shall be
considered the same and shall have the
power of contracting as adult en-
ployes') were added to render clear
that, without prejudice to liability
under the penal statutes, any minor
who is legally permitted to work at
all in a gainful occupation is to be
regarded as being competent to con
tract, as regards subjeeting himself to
the provisions of the Workmens
Compensation law, as fully as an
adult person.
It follows that the trial court erred
in not dismissing the case for want Of
jurisdiction. Therefore, the Judgment
must be reversed and the cause re-
manded for dismissal with costs in
favor of defendant.

Sheridan road, has appealed to the
police for aid in locating his wife,
Anna Jocius and their year and half
old baby, who have been missing since

1t is the old story of the ''eternal

a boarder at the house, disappeared at
the same time as the woman and her
husband told the police that they had
