Kenosha GOld-Seekers
Reach Rainbow's End

Local gold-diggers in the persons of
members Of the Kenosha Mining COM
pany have reached the end of the rain
bow and have found as is usual-no
pot of gold to reward them for the
Journey.
At meeting of stockholders held on
Friday evening it was voted to ratify
the action of the board Of directors
providing for the sale Of the Kenosha
mine at Grass Valley, California, which
at one time promised gold bright red
gold to all concerned in its exploita-
ton.
The action marks the beginning of
the end of one of the most romantic
chapters in the history Of Kenosha, a
dream that faded.
The decision to sell the mine and
give up the great adventure followed
report on an analysis Of "diggings"
from the Kenosha mine made by the
United States mint officials. It stated
that 'the dirt" would not yield more
than ten dollars worth Of gold to the
ton Enough has been said.
It is believed that a good sale of the
mine has already been arranged and
that the local "forty-niners" will not
lose even though they did not win in
the Turing game for gold.

and Comes Back with Truck Full of
Evidence Saturday Night.
BIG SURPRISE FOR ROAD HOUSES
Two Gambling Devices Taken at Schrayer Place and
-Four More Are Picked up at BlOxdorf
Tavern While Crowds Wonder.

Convincing evidence that officials
who proclaimed Kenosha county out

talking about was brought to light
on Saturday night when a one man
raid staged by Constable John S.
Scholey of the third ward resulted
in the gathering in Of half dozen

a thousand dollars and with them the
constable brought in dimes and nickles
and quarters stored away in the ma
chimes to value which cannot be as
certained until after the machines nave

dence removed from them. The places
where the machines were seized were
completely surprised by the constable

in progress until truck was backed
up to the front doors and the machines

to agree at the conference Saturday.
Greece was. given free hand in the
military measures in Turkey which
we're decided upon at the Hythe CON
ference yesterday, according to infor-

would be sufficient to deal with the
situation.

MOTORISTS TAKE DUNMovIN.
Kenoshans En- Masse Visit Henry S
Cooper's Paradise of Peonies.

A veritable cavalcade of motor-cars
moved out to Dunmovin all day Satur-
day and Sunday. Unadorned they
turned into the Geneva road and hit
the peony-trail via "the road that leads
to God knows-where." Hours later
they came back loaded down with or
at least tinged With color, fragrance,
and life in the form of black and scar
let peoples, cream or crimson peonies.
1t was Mr.. Cooper's way of passing the
beauty. During the two days he gave
away more than thousand peonies
from the eight acres of them that
flank the gardens at Dunmovin.
Special pelice-oficers stationed at the
end of Salem avenue to handle Sun
days traffic to fowerland counted four
hundred and ten cars decked with pc
onies from Dunmovin. It was de-
bauch in beauty for Kenosha motor
lists, the kind of debauch that leaves
no hangover on the morning after.
Literally thousands Of them talked
Dunmovin today and praised Mr.. Coop
er for his vision aud generosity.

NAB BLACK LEADERS
IN CHICAGO TODAY

Chicago The police today arrested
Grover G. Redding and seven other me-
groes in connection with rioting in
the Chicago "black belto last night
during which two white men were
killed and three negroes seriously
wounded The riots followed parade
in the "black belt" The police were
still seeking RID. Jonas, an agitator,
who is said to have participated the
riots. Redding was caught at rail-
road station just after he had pur-
chased a ticket to st. Louis. The other
prisoners are said to have been occu-
pants of automobiles in the parade.
All are being detained for further ex-
animation. Jonas, who was still at
liberty this morning after an all night
hunt by police, was found by report
er and told his version of the riotinp.
Redding, Jonas said, told him he has
recently been in Abyssinia and when
asked how he got there explained that
he took an airship from Mexico"
Jonas said he accompanied the ne
groes to Chicago two weeks ago to ask
the Republican convention to incor-
porate plank in the party platform
providing for the resumption of the
Abyssinian treaty with the United
States, which expired in 1917. Since
coming here, he declared. he had de-
nounced Redding and the other
"Abyssinian princes" to the. federal
authorities as radicals, but without
result.
R. D. Jonas, the supposed white lead
er of the Abyssinians was arrested at
noon today and taken to the police sta
ton. He denied all responsibility for
the affair and said that more than a
week ago he had been elected bodily
from a meeting of the Abyssinians
and since that time had had nothing to
do with them.

LAKE CITIES WIN
AGAITST CHICAGO
Twelve Year Old Fight
Against Sanitary District
Decided in Chicago.
KENOSHA INTERESTED

The long fight made by the United
States government on the petition of
cities on the shores of the great lakes
to prevent the drainage board Of the
City of Chicago from diverting water
from the great lakes into the drainage
canal at Chicago was won by the gov
eminent on Saturday when Judge
Lands in the federal court in Chicago
handed down decision enjoining the
sanitary district from diverting from
lake Michigan more than 100000 cubic
feet of water per minute. This is
about one third the amount of water
that is being taken from the lake for
the sanitary canal. It is announced
that an appeal will be taken to the
Supreme Court Of the United States
and that the restraining order may be
held in allegiance until after the appeal
is heard and decision rendered.
Kenosha A Petitioner.
The City of Kenosha was one of the
cities which petitioned the government
to take action against the Sanitary
District. The suit was brought way
back in 1908 by the War Department
of the United States government. 1t
was declared that the taking of such
vast quantity of water from the
lake would endanger the water supply
of the cities along entire chain of
lakes. Nearly every city along che
lakes with the exception of the city
Of Chicago Joined in the petition to the
war department. Efforts were made
to secure congressional action but the
matter was finally left in the hands of
the war department with instructions
to bring the action in court. 1t is de-
clared that the enforcement Of the in
junction would demand the mediate
expenditure Of $150,O0o,00O for read
justment Of conditions in the city of
Chicago and that the health of the
people of the great city would be en-
dangered.
Cities Not Pushing Case.
The cities which were originally
named in the petitions to Congress and
the war department have not shown
any great interest in the matter for
years. It was forgotten chapter in
Kenosha and the officials of the city
found it difficult to find any official
action in regard to the prosecuting
of the suit for the injunction. The
expense of the litigation have been
paid entirely by the United States
Government.

DRY" SALOONS
ON ANXIOUSSEAT
Council May Hold Up APP
plications for Permits at
Meeting Tonight.
ELEVATION ON TAP

The City Council holds it's regular
session this evening and while the city
clerk did not have long program it
was expected that there would be
enough to keep the aldermen working
for several hours. The report of the
license committee in regard to the is
Buance of Glass A. permits is scheduled
to be before the council this evening
and it is just possible that this may
bring some discussion. The committee
has been urged to refuse to grant per-
mits to men who have been violating
the laws and it is probable that a
score Of the applications for permits
will be held up. 1t is possible that
the federal government may be appeal
ed to furnish the council with informa-
tion in regard to the conduct of some
permit" saloons during the past year.
A number Of the saloon men have
Withdrawn their applications for per-
mits following the ruling Of the Su-
preme Court on the validity Of the
prohibition amendment.
May Act on Damages.
1t is possible that there will be a
further cleaning up of matters in con-
nection with the Main street bridge as
the committee is busy at work getting
agreements with property owners to-
day and expect to have some report
ready for the consideration Of the
aldermen this evening,
There is possibility that the coun-
ell will take final action on the street
paving program and the property own
ers on the various streets slated to be
paved have been asked to make their
wishes known at the meeting this even
ing. 1t is expected that number Of
protests against paving will be before
the council and that these will be
granted. The aldermen have shown
that they do not care to order any paw
ing unless the property owners insist
that the work be done this year.
Track elevation or rail depression is
also on the program for consideration
this evening and another important
railway question will be the vacation
of land for the Erie street depot of
the North Shore line. 1t is expected
that the members Of the committee
ordered to interview the North Shore
officials will have "black and white"
agreement with the company. The
agreement was being prepared this
afternoon.
With the usual amount of routine
business to be taken care of, it is GER
tain that the meeting will furnish
something to keep the Getty dads"
busy.

NORTH SHORE ELECTRIC
ASKS INCREASED RATES
Files Petition with Commerce Commission for
Uniform Rate of 2.7 Cents Per
Mile on Saturday.
TO MEET INCREASED COSTS
Appeal Is in Keeping with Nationwide Demand Of
Railways for Higher Fares for
Passenger Traffic.
TO MEET INCREASED COST

Authority to raise its passenger
rates to 2.7 cents mile in both Ill
inois and Wisconsin, is asked by the
Chicago North Shore and Milwaukee
Railroad, in petition filed with the
Interstate Commerce Commission
The present rate of fare on the
electric line is 2.5 cents mile in in
terstate traffic and in Wisconsin and
cents n mile in Illinois. The petit
ton asks that the new rate be made
Chicago to Milwaukee.
Officials of the company state that
the great increase in operating ex-
penses, due largely to increased wages
and higher cost of materials makes
the higher fare essential if the road
is to continue to give the public good
service.
Wage Increases Granted.
During the summer of 1919 wage
increase amounting to approximately
S350,000 year, was granted the en-
ployees Of the line. Demands for a
further increase have been made by
the trainmen and while the negotia-
tions are still under way, it is ex-
pected that an increase equalling, or
exceeding the one last year will be
granted.
If the increase in fares is author
lied by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, the rate on the electric line
will still be considerably lower than
charged by the steam roads, where a
flate rate Of cents a mile has been
in force for nearly three years.
In Keeping With Nation Move.
1t was declared by officials of the
company today that the proposed in
rease was in keeping with a nation
vide movement among electric rail-
ways to secure fair passenger rate
1t was pointed out that the Public
utilities commission Of Illinois had
on Saturday ordered an eight cent fare
for the surface lines in the city Of
Chicago and that in all parts of the
country changes are being made in
rates and that in every case the tend
ency is for an increase rate. The
Chicago North Shore and Milwaukee is
one of the last Of the companies to
appeal to the Interstate Commerce
Commission for change in rate. On
etSSVuhI VI tue ldCJ lHdJ Tue company
is engaged in Interstate traffic the
figuring of rates is not subject to the
consideration of the Wisconsin Rail-
road Commission.
On Saturday the Aurora, Joliet and
Elgn electric line filed petition
with the Illinois Utilities Commission
asking that it be granted the right to
raise fares to ten cents in both Aurora
and Elgin.
1t is declared that the North Shore
line is making plans for improvements
all along its lines between Chicago
and Milwaukee. One of the improve
ments will be the new station in Keno
sh@ which is to be erected at cost
Of $4,000 provided the city will vacate
strip Of land for use as site. 1t
is declared that the company is now
