What Will Congress Do2

What congress will do. and how members of congress who openly have sympdthized with Germany in theii opposition h clothing the president with full authority to protect Alneri can rights will regard the revelation of GermauY's maehinations to attack the United States is the subject of tht keeuest interest.
 Such q proposal as Germany in struc,ed her minister to make to MeXi. co borders on an act of war, if, actu. ally. il K not one.
 No doubt exists here now that the perSttcnt reports during the last tive years Of the operations of German agents not alone in Mexico but all through Central America and the West Indies are based on fact
 There is now no doubt whatever that the proposed alliance with Mex ico was known to high Mexican ofii' calS who are distinguished for their -AmericanSIn. Among them are Rafael Zubaran, Carranza's $ minister to# Germany, and Luis Cabrera, Car r;ulza'S minister of finance

Manitowoc is so full of people that
every old barrack is crowded to capac-
ity. The floating hotel "Chicago" is
filled. The old glue factory has been
utilized as quarters for nearly hun
dred workers. Building cannot catch
up with growth OF the city.
The twenty-four residences built by
the Home Builders Association will
be supplemented by thirty more, it Is
reported, and now Otto Gass comes To
the rescue. He is now at work on
three houses and will soon start work
upon number OF residences on the
block bounded by 4th and Fifth streets
Huron street and Cleveland Avenue
He is planning more and may have
between 40 and so houses under way
before the year is up. The population
Of the city is estimated at over l6,0OC
and the correctness OF this will soon be
ascertained by thorough census be
ing taken by Henry Mulholland.

MORE TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS.

Joseph Daley, John Watson and Har-
old Eberhardt were in an automobile
owned by A. o. Anderson last Satur-
day. They were going out to Branch
to do some electrical work for Mr..
Anderson. On Washington street
they swerved sharply to avoid coils
ion with farmers rig and their car
hit The sidewalk and turned complete
ly over. The car was wrecked. Eber.
hardt was the unlucky one. He suffer
ed fractured collar lone, several
cracked ribs and some bad bruises
The other two escaped almost unharm-
ed.
1t seems strange that anyone should
now be ignorant of traffic regulations
or knowing them should not see the
Importance of observing them. The
police are not overlooking any oppor-
tunity Of impress.ng the necessity OF
obedience on drivers. There was a
constant stream Of offenders into muni-
cipal court for couple OF weeks.

PLUCKY RESCUE FROM DROWNING.

There was spectacular rescue from
drowning Witnessed by many people
on 8th street bridge Sunday afternoon.
Four young men were swimming
just above the bridge on the south
side. Floyd Hansen was seen by the
others to be In distress and Walter
Koepke was first to reach him. He
had to go under to get Hanson. Be-
fore Victor Geisler and Earl Plantico
could reach them the drowning boy
attempted to grapple with his rescuer.
The gaping crowd then saw Koepke
deliberately stun Hanson with q blow
on the head and hold him until life
preservers from the yacht Restless
could be placed under him. He was
then towed to shore. Hanson was
given "frst aid' at Kraemer's cafe,
near by, and soon was none the worse
for his trip to The borderland. 1t was
a thrilling rescue and his three com
panions and particularly Koepke de-
serve Carnegie medals. Hanson said
afterward that his strength suddenly
began to leave him and he vas help.
less. A few seconds lost time and he
would surely have drowned.

CITY EMPL0YE SURVIVES SHOCK

Alfred johnson, employe OF the city
electric utility, caught hold of wire
carrying 2300 volts last Friday and was
up and around Saturday with badly
burned hand and some minor burns on
one arm. Why he survived the shock
is mystery. He was working on the
tower above the city's old plant on
Quay street cutting over wires in pre-
pairing for the change TO the new
plant. In some manner his left hand
came in contact with the live wire
and ne stiffened out like corpse. A
fellow workman, Herman sawyer
pulled him away s1d Johnson's arm
fell across the wire and the arm was
burnt. Sawyer lowered him to the
ground with rope. Examination at
he hospital disclosed that the only
erious effect was very badly burnt
hand.
When employed by the city's prede-
cessor, the Electric Light company a
few years ago, Johnson had fall that
splintered the bones of one foot and in
capacitated him for labor for nearly a
year. He will now be laid up perhaps
for months. The city is protected un-
der liability insurance. If he had had
a better connection under foot last
Friday he would not be here now to
tell of it.

MANlT0W0C SETS AN EXAMPLE.

The following is taken from The
Municipality, a monthly magazine
published at Madison devoted to the
civic betterment and the municipal
advancement of Wisconsin cities:
Manitowoc has set an example to
the other cities OF the state by the
monthly publication OF "The Mu-
nicipal Record" This is a small
leafet, published by the city clerk,
Mr.. John d. Kelley, under the au-
thority OF the common council.
Copies OF it may be obtained by any
one who desires to do so from the
Public Library, the Chamber oi
Commerce, or at the city clerks Of
fee.
The record is designed to publish
from month to month, items OF in.
terest TO the citizen about his city
government. The January issue
contains comparative statement OF
the citys finances for the month OF
December, showing the budget APP
preparation, the amount expended
for the nine months, the amount yot
unexpended, the amount expended
for December, and the comparative
expenditures for 1915, for each oil
the departments of the city govern.
ment. II also contains a statement
showing the conditions OF the ward,
storm sewer and domestic sewer
funds, and condensed statement OF
cash transactions for the last month,
On the back Is printed a list Of the
city officials.
One the chief causes OF so much
criticism OF municipal government
and OF city officials by taxpayers
and citizens, is the lack OF definite
Information ON what the city is do.
Ing. Give the complaining citizen
full information on the subject oi
his complaint, SO he fully under
stands all sides, and nine times ou,
Of ten you disarm his criticism.
The average citizen will not read
much. He hasn't the time. He
wants IL In a nutshell. ManitowoC
has the idea and the municipality com
mends 1t to the other cities Of the

FOURTH OF JULY.

independence Day was fittingly OBJ.
served in Manitowoc. The old fashion
ed, noisy, celebration with its CHASTITY
train of youthful victims is gone. In
it's place the most elaborate demonstra-
tion attempted for many years was
successfully carried out. Two Rivers
and the rest OF the county joined Man
itowoc in making it a success. The
streets were crowded beginning at nine
o'clock in the morning. A committee
of girls with decorated stand in front
of the court house pinned registration
badges on all young men of military
registration age. The parade formed
at 1:15 +. NJ. Its main features were
Two Bands, Co. H, w. N. g., Two

Order of Eagles in White Uniforms,
K. of c., High School Cadets, Fife and
Drum Corps, Boy Scouts, G. A. K. on
a gayly decorated motor truck, and q
number Of floats Seldom, if ever, we're
as many people gathered on the streets
of Manitowoc. Handling the automo-
bile traffic was huge task which the
police performed we'll. The parade
ipished at Washington Park where
the exercises were held A drill by l6
youngsters of the Polish parochial
school made hit. There was singing
and band music and an Grafton by

Schroeder introduced Mayor Currens
of Two Rivers, who presided. The
day was ideal except for temperature
not much above 60 degrees. The city
had no fireworks display and except
for little desultory blazing into the
night here and there by individuals the
customary evening display was missing
1t was fine celebration.

DR.. JOHN E. CAREY DEAD.

Many readers of the Pilot will learn
with deep regret of the death OF DR..
John E. Carey Of Aurora, Ill.
The Carey family we're pioneer
residents who settled on farm in
what is now the town of Liberty in the
early SOS. There the doctor grew up
from childhood, getting his education
in the public school in the intervals Of
farm work. He became teacher and
taught in several districts OF the coun.
ty.
AS he reached manhood he adopted
the medical profession as his life
work. He was student in the office
of DR.. j. +. ,Pritchard of this city and
graduated at Rush Medical College in
1878. He entered upon regular prac-
tice at Stockbridge, Calumet Co. and
after few years went to Wausau,
Wis. He was successful in profession
al work from the start and soon had a
wide reputation as careful and con-
scientlous physician. About 25 years
ago he removed to Aurora, Ill. which
has since been his home
About six weeks ago he went to Te,-
luride, Colo. to visit his son at that
place. While there he was attacked
by pneumonia and died on Friday
last after an illness of only four days.
He was II years Of age and had re.
tired from active professional work
though. The deceased was twice
married. His first wife was Harriet
Anderson, sister of Jugde Anderson OF
this city. She died at Stockbridge
leaving issue Two sons. He later mar
ried Miss Emma Hicks OF Stockbridge
who survives him. His surviving chill
dren are two sons Walter E. and
George H. Carey also two daughters,
Emma and Helen,
His body was brought back to his
home in Aurora, 1t was first intended
to inter it here, but it was found that
in anticipation of such an event de-
ceased had left other directions.
Judge Andersen and daughter, Miss
Jean, of this city attended the funeral
at Aurora.
DR. Carey was essentially self-made
man. He was one OF many young farm
lads, whose just ambitions led them on
an upward path that required strenu-
Gus exertion and who made life sue
cess in the best things that life has to
offer.
The deceased always cherished a
warm affection for the scenes and friends
OF ais aarly days. Tae world has been
better because John E. Garry has lived
in it. His death is regretted most by
those who knew him best.
