doing his bit and he has done it even
at the risk of personal DANGER
Since the exodus of Wednesday af-
ternoon many of the ice men have
shown disposition to view the matter
more reasonably and Loyalty. With
the chief propagandists gone several of
especially the cold timers -
have expressed an absolute willingness
to conform to the regulations of the
government od-administration.
This is especially true of the
trusted employees of the company
several of whom have declared to Mr..
Haegfe that they "were with him -
from the start but were powerless to act
"against the viii of the gang"
It is now generally thought that the
affair is closed chapter in the life
of the ice men at Twin Lakes. The
most influential malcontents are now in
Chicago and in their absence it is not
believed the remaining men will so far
forget their country as to protest
agalnsJ the observance OF government
food days.
The crisis of Wednesday afternoon
has recalled most of them to a saner
view Of the matter and they are to-
day working in perfect harmony with
Mr.. Haegle and his aids.
Too much praise can hardly be ae-
corded President Haegle. Despite the
fact that other ice houses in Twin
Lakes were blissfully disregardful of
the food days, he chose to serve his
country rather than himself and there
by brought upon his firm the difficulties
of the past week.
The Whole hearted support and CO.
operation of loyal Americans in Keno
sha county will undoubtedly protect him
from further disorders of similar
nature.

KNIFE PLAY is
ENDED IN COURT
John Griszewsh Pays Ten Dollars and
Costs ON Charge of Cutting Man
He Never Knew.

John Griszewsh was arraigned be-
fore Judge TuIly in the Municipal
Court this morning on charges of as
sault and battery. He entered plea
of guilty and was fined ten dollars and
the costs of the action. The man had
been booked at the police Office on
charges of assault with intent to do
great bodily harm.
Late Tuesday night Grisbewsl1i, ac-
cording to the story, had come out of
an Elizabeth street saloon with a knife
in his hand. The knife happened to
strike Joseph Kriszewski. It cut his
fingers but he was not seriously
wounded. Both of the men admitted
that they did not know each other and
that they had no trouble.
Griszewsh in court this morning adj
mitted that he was considerably under
the influence of liquor and that he did
not know how he happened to have the
knife In his hand. The man who was
injured did not seem to have any de-
sire to have the case carried farther.

People have a perfect right to be-
ieve that delay in getting the railways
open after the storm was part of
the railway battle against government
management of the railways. It will
be pretty hard to convince any one who
shoveled the snow from some of the
side walks in Kenosha that the railways
laid down on the job. It would take

track # the drifts were anything like

If we must burn munitions let's burn
them over on the battle front and not
in some old building in Washington.
The very fact that munitions were
stored in old tumble down fire traps is
an indictment against the real mana
ger of the war in Washington. Pos
sibly it is not to be blamed to Secre-
tary Baker but real Secretary of War
would not long tolerate men under him
who would permit such conditions to
exist.

We want to be helpful to other com.
monwealths, but it is pretty hard with
all Of the Wisconsin cities shouting and
some of them crying for coal to have
the fuel administrators order that coal
on Wisconsin docks be shipped to Min
nesota and the Dakotas. IF these COM
monwealths were prudent and made the
same efforts to get coal as Wisconsin
did, there may be merit in the order.
If they just naturally depended ON
some one else taking care of them
misery should not be added to Wis
consin to take care of these people
in their imprudence.

FEW FAIL TO ANSWER CALL
City Board Is Waiting for the Return
of Just Fifty-Six While County Board
Has Even Smaller Number-Classi-
fication Goes Forward Rapidly.

to get in under the QUESTIONABLE. The

smaller number to wait for
For the first time in six weeks the
advisory board had little to do when
it gathered at the City Hall this morn
ing. There was not man waiting and
the lawyers who are giving their serv-
ices sat around and told stories waiting
for the last of the registered men to
come in for aid in making their re-
port to Uncle Sam It is expected
the slate will be practically cleared
today as out of the ffty-six outstand-
ing questionaires it is certain that a
number will be delinquent.
The work of classifying the men is
going forward very rapidly and within
a few days notices will be sent to men
in Glass / directing them to report for
physical examination. These notices
will go to all members Of the classes
regardless Of former examinations.
Men who fail to pass physical ex-
aminations for Glass may be placed
in some of the deferred classes.

He holds now that it is mighty poor
