ITEMS FROM THE PILOT FILES
FIFTY YEARS AGO
THE LAKE SHORE RAILROAD
MEETING

The meeting held at the Court House
last Saturday night, was largely at
tended, showing that our citizens are
now really awake to their interest, in
reference to railroads, and we hope
that this movement of our people will
not lag until something definite and
certain is effected towards giving us
communication with the outside world,
somewhere.
After several speeches had been
made (some of which ought not to have
been made) a motion was made and
carried that the chair appoint three
men to go over the country from here
to Sheboygan, Port Washington and
Milwaukee, and intermediate towns,
and to Appleton and other places, and
learn what united action can be had to
insure Lake Shore road. The chair
appointed II. II. Hoes, Chas, Esslinger
and S. A. Wood as such committee.
And also appointed a committee of
three to raise money to pay the ex-
penses of the first committee and then
the meeting adjourned.
We hope that these committees will
proceed Immediately to business, and
in the shortest possible time be able to
report some effective action. Manito-
woe cannot afford to wait for anything
or anybody, at this time. The enemy
are attempting to "fank rs and we
had better prepare for action.
We were sorry to see that an unac-
countable delusion took possession of
the minds of one or two OF the speak
ers, at the meeting, who seemed to
labor under the impression that the
meeting was called as an opposition
movement to western road. Such
was not the case.
We should not quarrel about which
of these two roads will help us most,
as Judge Reed is the only man, at
present, to whom we can look to give
us western road, let us aid him in his
road; all the aid that he will ask. This
we have done. A year or two ago he
asked 100000, and we gave it to him.
Last Wednesday night he asked $4,000,
and it was unanimously promised to
him, and had he asked for five times
that amount he would have been as
sured of it. What more can he ask of
us? We believe that through his eff
forts we shall eventually have a west
ern road, and we will vote him money
and bonds. But when the citizens of
Manitowoc wish to assemble for the
purpose of discussing any other rail
road project they will not consent to
be muzzled, or allow the object of their
meetings to be defeated in any way.

MARRIED

Miss Gesine Baensch, daughter of
, Judge and Mrs. Emil Baensch, of this
city, and Walter PITT, also of Manito-
woe, were married at Washington, ID.
c., last Thursday, the ceremony being
performed in the church of the Epi-
phany, known as the Pershing church,
being the religious home of General
John Pershing, noted military leader,
who was married in the same edifice.

able rector of the church ofIiciated.

mate of Miss Baensch, rendered solo.
Following the ceremony wedding din
ner was served at St Marks Inn.
The wedding which occurred at $50
O'Clock was attended by only parents

and during their residence here were
prominent in younger social circles of
the city. After graduation the
bride entered the university at SYRIA
cuse, n. Y, where she graduated and

war and gave up her position to go to
Washington to enter service of the
government in the making of typo
graphical maps and after the armistice
was signed accepted a position in the
War Risk Insurance bureau at the cap
tol.
Mr. Pitz is a son of the late Phillip
PITT and a graduate of the University
of Wisconsin where he was engaged in

tu. i department at the university

5. and then chapter 6l2 same year
later amends said old section 45i9, II.
). Wis, without paying any attention
to it's former amendment by the earlier
chapter 26S of the same year. What
the legal effect of such patchwork has
on said section 4549, II. S. is a problem
for our courts to solve.
The legislature of 1919 was an ex-
pert in similar law making. Early chap
tcrs of 1919, amend or even repeal
certain sections of the Wisconsin stat
utes, and by later chapters of same
legislature, said old sections of the
statutes are amended, leaving out en-
tircly any note or mention of the other
chapters amending, or even repeating
said old sections. Query what the legal
effect of such amending the old stat
utes, and what is the law now in Wis
consin on the subjects covered by said
old section of the statutes; Are the
former amending chapters of 1919
wiped out or repealed by the last chap
ter of 1919 which amends said old
statute, and makes no mention or ref
erence to the other chapters Of 1919
amending same section? Again, where
early chapter repeals a section Of Wis
consin statutes, and later said repealed
section is amended by another 1919
chapter, without saying a word OF
making any mention of its repeal by
the earlier chapter, and not even say
ing by latest chapter that said section
lis hereby reenacted and amended 50
as to read as follows: Is the old seq
ton of the statutes dead, or does such
later chapter revive and reenact it, ~
what is the law on the subjects covered
by the old sectionT Where were the
judiciary committees of said legisla-
| ture when such laws were considered
and passed? One member of one Of
those committees was anxious that q
resolution pass requesting congress to
| disfranchise the South, or to cut down
| its representation in congress because
the negroes were not allowed to vote,
and newspapers reported another
speeding against the league of nations
and 'the Ills thereof" Ills in laws
neglected, in the wider philanthropy
which embraced those far away.
The laws of 1919 create many tam
gle for courts to declare what the law
is. A NEoPHYTE.

FREDERICK GUNSTER
RECITAL A GREAT TREAT

Last Friday night, October II, Man
itowoc music lovers were privileged to
hear one of the first ballad and lieder
singers of America, in Mr.. Frederick
GunSter, tenor from New York. The
concert was the second in the Seventh
Annual series Of Artist entertainments
given by the Monday Music club. The
program was evidence of the great care
bestowed by the club in the selection of
artists. Mr.. Gunster possesses a pleas
ing personality and a beautiful voice,
and his art is marked by unusually
clear enunciation, smooth, easy vocal
ization and intelligent reading of the
literature of his songs. The effect of
the lovely first group of French songs
was somewhat marred by the late-com-
ers, but both the singer and the accom-
panist, Mrs. Randolph, took the inter
ruptions gracefully. Mr.. Gunster's
second group was early songs in Eng
lish, his third a group of six modern
songs, his fourth and last NEGRO spir-
itual." The arrangement and rendi-
ton of these last raised the African
folk-song to the rank Of art. They
we're perfect Judging by his interpre-
tation, Mr. Gunster evidently has real
emotional musical appreciation. The
common opinion of those who attended
was that the program was all too brief.
Mrs. Cecile Lyons Randolph gave the
Monday Music club, of which she is a
memmber, reason for pride by her able
accompanying.
This concert was more largely at
tended than any of the artists series
for sometime; but it may be added that
those who failed to hear this very un-
derstandable and beautiful concert
have "chalked down lost opportun-
ity' for themselves. The next of the
regular series Is In March.

BIDS BY COUNTY REPOSITORIES

Editor Pilot: | noticed in your issue
of this week in your report of your
county board proceedings, that the bid
for county moneys to he deposited in
Francis Creek Bank, was withdrawn by
the bank because director thereof is
chairman of your county board, and
hence said bank could rot legally bid.
That is not the law, and has not been
the law since 1915, chapters 26s and
6l2 of 1918, amending section 45i9
r. 5. Wisconsin, which heretofore
shut out such bids Those amendments
are found in section t5t9 II. S. 1915
and 1917, and amend said section so
, that it and its prohibitivc provisions
shall mot apply to the designation of
public repositories for public funds,
nor "to the publication Of any legal
notices required to be published by any
town, city, village or county or any
officer thereof" etc, etc
Section 1919, the old and the new as
amended prohibits officers Of towns,
villages, cities, county and state, Of
which they are officers, 70 have any
interest, direct or indirectly, in any con
| tract with such town, village, city,
county or state Of which they are such
officer; but the said section as now
amended permits the above noted eX-
ceptons in favor of the persons named
therein, and leaves the rest Of us poor
mortals, not in those favored classes
exempted, liable to fine and impriSon-
mcnt as high as five years in state
prison What reasons for making such
exemptions for those elect" and lcav-
ing all the rest Of Wisconsins citizens
liable to such severe penalties if they
do what the exemptions say would be
no oifensc at all for the classes above
mentioned who are named in said ex.
emptionss Some one was looking out
for some ones interests in having said
amendments made.
have no doubt that courts woulc
hold such laws exempting those yoie
as class legislation, must apply to all
or to none But until such decision
the Francis Creek Bank had a lega
right under said amendments to bi,

moneys as well as any other bank in tn

LOCAL FIRM HAS BAD LUCK

a large scow and dredge, the prop
erty of McMullen & PITT, sank in Lake
Michigan Tuesday afternoon about half
way between this port and Sheboygan
The dredge and two dump scows were
in tow of the tug Arctic en- route to
Sheboygan where the contractors had
a submarine job. OFF Centerville heavy
seas were encountered that swamped
the big Scow. The crew of five men
were transferred to the Arctic. The
craft lies in 200 feet of water and is
probably a total loss, amounting to
over $4,000. There was no insurance
scows was picked up soon after.

TRAPS SKyAKS, PAYS FINE

Louis Shamburek was up in court
Monday charged with having trapped
several specimens of the small Ameri-
can fur-bearing animal which some
people refer to as "A ''polecat" when
they deem it indelicate to use the
shorter and commoner name. The crit
ter by any other name would smell as
sweet. Shamburek didn't bring them
into court with him so Judge Schmidt
let him off with the minimum fine
which is $50, total $685. on his plea
of guilty in manner form and odor as
charged, Game Warden John Egan
ferreted out the offense. He got the
scent and followed it to the culprit.

three weeks ago in charge of the bodies
of $50 American soldiers who died in
Russia. Lieut.. Primm was overseas

SUGAR THIEVES SENTENCED

Herbert Woods and w. O'DOnnell
pleaded guilty yesterday in Municipal
court to burglary from freight cars.
The state charged them with having
stolen several bags of sugar and sold
the plunder for cash. The local police
were assisted in the case by Officer
Luff of the c. & n. W. Railway detec-
tive force. They profted nothing by
their theft as they lost the proceeds in
a poker game the same evening. They
were given one year at hard labor un-
der the sherff's direction. Two others
concerned left town without leaving
forwarding addresses.

MARINE BAND CONCERT

The Marine band annual concert had
to be put on two nights, Thursday and
Friday of last week, because the Or
pheum capacity was oyersold for the
first night long before the date of the
concert. 1t was a rare treat for music
lovers and the patronage is due more
to a knowledge that the cost of ticket
is money well spent than any feeling
thought Of comforting a gratuity. The
concert was up to the performance Of
former years.
