Hoards and Stores.

Attorney Genera Palmer, in the
course of his efforts to put the food
spectators out Of business, makes a
useful distinction between food that is
boarded and food that is stored legiti-
mately. It is distinction which the
public sometimes fails to recognize.
Most of the foodstuffs accumulated
in the storage houses are probably
placed there in good faith and belong
there. They are the natural surplus of
the season of plenty stored up to tide
the nation over through the rest of the
year. So far as this storage is legiti-
mate, it is not only insurance against
starvation in the season Of scarcity,
but it serves TO steady prices through
out the year.
On the whole, the public undoubtedly
benefits by it. If there were no storage
houses, and consequently no wholesale
storage of perishable foodstuffs, it
would always be as it was in primitive
times, either a feast or famine, with
prices Tuinous to the producer in the
feast period and ruinous to the consu-
mer in the famine period. Storage con
servation is boon to both.
We are going to be very careful
not to do anybody an injustice or to
jeopardize the winter supply by forcing
on the market the surplus Of the sum-
mer season, says Mr.. Palmer.
But along with these legitimate
stores are "hoards of butter, eggs,
poultry and other commodities bought
up and withheld from the market for
the sole purpose of helping to corner
the market, forcing prices still higher
and then profting by the artificial fam
inc created.
The hoarders and gamblers who are
responsible serve no useful purpose.
They are criminal parasites on the food
industry. They are exploiting the pub
lie in the worst sense. They are
grinding the faces of the poor. They
must be put out of business, and their
boards, which are in excess of the sur
plus needed to last through the winter,
must be put on the market to relieve
the present need and lower prices to
their natural level

friends Of LIBERALIZATION

An inquiry into the influences favor.
Ing federal ownership of the railways
brings out some curious facts. 1t ap,
pears that the principal classes support
ing the plan are the labor unions and
their supposedly inveterate foes. the
capitalists Most of the holders of rail
road stocks and bonds are said to be
just about as eager for the Plumb pro
gram as are the railroad brotherhoods
and allied unions.
The motive of the security holders is
evident enough. Their Investment has
been so uncertain the. last few years
that they would welcome government
ownerships as q guarantee Of interest
and dividends. The returns might not
be SO large as is possible under private
ownership, but they would be regular
and sure
Against these classes are ranged the
business classes engaged in manufact-
ures and commerce, a large proportion
of the professional classes and most of
the farmers. Altogether the opponents
of federal ownership at present appear
to be greatly in the majority.

get the service it needs by purchase,
we are for municipal ownership. The
important thing is to do something.
The city must not be held up by lack
of railway facilities and it is to be
hoped that in answer to the expressed
will Of the people that the council will
take immediate action to secure the
proper valuations Of the street railway
and anything else that the people want
to buy so that the deal may be con-
sumated at the earliest possible time.
1t is a big proposition that the city
lis facing but Kenosha is big city
with big possibilities and it must not
shirk its obligations. It must meet OPP
portunities and obligations with the
same kind Of a spirit. IF this means
buying a railway, it must buy it. If
it means buying other utilities and OPP
Grating them, it must purchase and OPP
crate them The important thing is to
see to it that the work goes forward
and that it is not forgotten in a maze
of wordy arguments between the alder
men. The people have given the coun-
ell their ideas. The only thing that re-
mains for that body is to carry out
these ideas.

others which only tie grip of the at
tendance officer win put in school.
The worst condition of congestion ex-
lists in the Lincoln and in the Gillett
Weiskopf districts. In the Lincoln
there is a probability that more than
SEQ children above the kindergarten will
be on half time, in all lower grades
up to and including the Alb grade. It
is pretty serious condition when chill
dren of 10 and II years are able to
have but three hours of schooling a day.
In the GiIlet district, half time con-
ditions exist throughout the school
254 children reporting yesterday were
told that they could have school seat
for a half day only.
In the Weiskopf district, first and
second grade children are on half time,
numbering about 100.
To have $50 children of school age
released from school all the forenoon
and another $50 all the afternoon, is a
condition that not only means de-
terioration in the educational stand
ards which the schools are endeavoring
to maintain, but, permanent and ir-
remedial damage TO the most import
ant individual interests IF all these chill
dren. The schooling OF the average boy
and girl is very short at best, this re-
duees it still more.
In order to make some provision to
care for the added students in the sew
eral districts a special meeting of the
Board OF Education has been called for
this evening at which time plans for
the immediate erection of portable
buildings viii be discussed. 1t is ex-
pected that the board win arrange for
the erection of at least four portable
buildings at once.

Eterially by the adoption of proper ma
ehinery for handling it, There were
still nnclean samples" found and it
is expected that steps win be taken to
revoke the licenses OF these dealers.
Here is the monthly report Of Chemist
Henry F. Miller:
: Examination Of milk samples made
during the month of August show what
some Of our local dairymen have done
and can do to help make our milk sup
ply what it should be.
Diaries number IA and Is have nearly
always had poor results until they start
ed using the proper equipment which
has been installed only a short time
In addition to these, numbers and 10
have ordered equipment which will help
bring their product UP to standard. Six
out of the ten dairies will then be
handling pasteurized product.
The sanitary condition Of the fol
lowing dairies is judged as follows:
The sediment grade is the amount Of
visible dirt on white cotton found in
a pint of milk. These are graded as
follows: Clean, fairly clean, unclean
dirty and very dirty, Good milk must
not show more than trace Of visible
dirt which is graded clean or fairly
clean. Milk also contain tiny invisible
plants called bacteria. In old or dirty
milk millions of these tiny plants may
be found Coed milk should not have
over 100000 of these bacteria in one
cubic centimeter which is about 16
drops.
Sediment grades and the invisible
plants called bacteria can be seen at
the Health Department Laboratory and
any questions will be gladly answered.
The name of the dairies corresponding
to the numbers herein given may like
wise be obtained here.

When Royalty StroIls.

The Prince of Wales, unannounced
and attended only by handful Of
equerries, slipped ashore today in civil
ian garb for Sunday afternoon stroll
through the lanes Of Point Pleasant
Park. For half an hour he walked at
leisure, recognized now and again by
the few persons in the park, sat down
occasionally to view the harbor, and
then returned to his vessel, the cruiser
Dragon. -
This, and much more to the same
effect, from Halifax dispatch. 1t is
the same day after day. The Canadian
papers are full of it. Apparently there
is nothing worth recording in the Dom
inion, or anywhere else in the world,
SO far as Canada is concerned, except
the doings of the Prince of Wales.
1t is all rather amusing. To think
that His Royal Highhess should conde-
scend to slip ashore unobtrusively,
attended only by handful of equer-
ries, - and do all the other benign and
gracious things recorded of him.
Canada, which so loves to boast of it's
democracy and its independence Of
Great Britain, is honored indeed in all
the Princes goings and comings. 1t
hangs with bated breath on his lightest
word, and eagerly grasps at every con-
ventional phrase Of politeness uttered
by this unassuming young English chap
who does his duty as he sees it., and
who is doubtless very much bored by it
all, and would gladly give his prospec-
tive kingdom for a chance to get out of
the public eye and live a normal, human
life.
Yes, the Prince is probably all right.
So are the Canadians, for that matter.
And it is safe enough for Americans to
laugh at their toadyingo to that po-
lite young Englishman, because the
American people will act just about ais
absurdly when their turn comes.
What is there in the word and person
of royalty" anyhow, to make sensible
people act SO sillye

Reception


 The reception at the home of MT. and Mrs. T. B. Cook Friday evening, given in honor of MT. and Mrs. w. T. Locke, was the most largely attended social function of the season. As the guests arrived they were ushered by the host and hostess into the spacious dining room where they were served with delicious punch, Mrs. O. Leslie presiding at the bowl. They were then conducted into the large drawing room where they met the brioe and greeted the groom. The rooms were beautifully decorated with carnations, the color scheme in the dining room being red and that of the drawing room white. A short musical pro- gram furnished a part of the enter tainment, Mesdames A. R. Flen- iken and J. E. Locke singing to the accompaniment of Mrs. Frank Locke, and which was greatly enjoyed. Miss Dorothy Corbett gave reading and met with hearty encore. The evening passed most pleasantly with social conversation until the time came for going home. The guests ex- pressed great pleasure to the hostess for her splendid entertainment, and wished the bride and groom, the honor guests of the evening, the best that life holds.
