reasonably certain that Little Mary =
was royal actress and was deserving
of regal position among the fairies
of the flm.D But their conviction was
destined to be short-lived, On Tuesday
night Marguerite Clark set them wav-
ering again with the imperial adven-
lures of Fiji and Toto. Pretty, petite,
and irresistible, she frolicked her way
through royal romance and complete
ly convinced her audience that she was
more regal than all the rest. With cir
cumstances as they now stand between

from solution and it is altogether pos
sible that people will still be hesitating

board Of health in it and all that, but
we found tht the muzzlo was the real
way of solving the dog question and
Kenosha will find the same thing if
she just keeps at it long enough and
lets the people know that muzzlees
for dogs means muzzles for all dogs
with death penalty for the ones
not wearing them'
The mayor picked up his hat and
started to go and then he thought of
another one. HYou know that Racine
is a hot town. I was up their. last
night-sunday night-get me, There
were women singing and dancing in
the saloons there and you know they
were not adverse to taking little nip
themselves. That would never go in
Muskegor or any place else in Michi-
gan. People over there have learned
that the law means something and
they obey it,
4 don t want 0 appear as critic
OF Kenosha. I do. It know any more
than lot Of othe~ fellows that hold
municipal Offices, but I just thought
that | ought to come in and say some
thing. Remember, Muskegon is just
across the lake and you can't blame
me for being interested just little in
your town as well as our town.
And with this the mayor of Muske-
gon waved CHEEKY adieu and went
off to catch a train.
1t is declared that Mayor Ellison
is the most popular executive that
Muskegon has had in a half century.
He is real tribune of the people and
fighter all the time. His ability and
willingness to fight have made lot of
changes in the map about Muskegon.

An organic Disease.

y Some Democratic savsnts who write
for the newspapers dismiss our increas-
ing exports of gold in an off-hand man.
ner. They assume that it means no
more than the loss of little avoirdu-
pois to a fat man and that such fnan-
cial banting is good for Uncle Sam.
Yet the general opinion of medicine is
that wasting is bad sign for the body
physical. 1t certainly is for the body
polite and commercial. If the gold
which we are now exporting were be-
ing used in the payment of some of our
long-term obligations or for the re-
purchase of American securities of any
kind from foreign holders, the outgo
could be looked upon with some degree
of complacency. But the fact is that
our gold is now going abroad in settle
ment of current bills-in payment, that
is to say, for commodities which we
are buying from foreigners but which
we could easily make for ourselves if
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1917-07-12

our markets were so guarded that we
could give American workmen that en-
ployment. In other words, low tariffs,
instituted by the Democratic party
four years ago, have enabled the
foreign manufacturer to send his goods
into the American market, to undersell
the American producer and to demand
American gold in payment because we
cannot sell to him upon anything like
even terms so long as we maintain our
scale of wages and living at its pres
ent level. This is not healthful re-
duction Of useless flesh; it is real
wanting of tissue which cannot be re-
placed There is a remedy, however,
and it IS the restoration Of higher
levels of tariff duties.

This is the question which is puzzling

that the receipts were to go entirely

in Winthrop Harbor, the cake was sold

desire on the part of those who en-
gagged in them to take care of the
interests of the whole city.
The Board of Education aid not pres
ent united front in the discussion of
the questions pertaining to the new
school. There was wide division.
Mayor Pfennig declared that the trou-
bic with the whole matter was to be
found in this division of the board and
the fact that the board had not taken
the city into its confidence.
Members of the board insisted hat
the meetings Of the board had been
open and that the proceedings of every
melting had been publishd and that
there had been no reason why every
man and woman in Kenosha should
not have been fully advised as to just
what the board was doing.
Only five members of the council
were present at the meeting. The list
included Aldermen Barr, Boursall,
Stin, Joachim and Wachs. All of the
other aldermen had been invited but
evidently they were too busy writing
autographs or something else to look
after this very important expenditure
of the peoples money.
Tt is. declared that the estimate Of
$165,000 for the completion of the
school is a conservative one and with
the decision to put the question up to
the people both the council and the
school board will be able to retire
gracefully. 1t is probable that the
council will arrange to call the special
election to dispose of the matter with

pie give the plan a sanction at this
election the work of building will 60

Even in these days of high cost of
living 5000 is some price for cake
but this was the sum realized from the
sale of one at Winthrop Harbor Mon
day evening. 1t is no criticism Of the
cake to say that its intrinsic worth was
increased by the fact that it was the
prize offered in a popularity contest, in
which Miss Mamie Allen, the post
mistress at Winthrop Harbor, proved
to be the most popular young lady Of
the village with Miss Bernadine zeitler

The average profits of the print
paper makers during the past year
seem to be in the neighborhood of a

The big movement to save the babies
of the city should bring to its aid the
heartiest support of every woman in

ment will be the shame of the women
of Kenosha.
