Battles with Prisoner Joe Paren on Way to
Prison for Long Term on Northwestern
Train Early To Day.
HE Is NOW IN EMERGENCY HOSPITAL
Sheriff Had Started Alone with Prisoner for Trim to
State Prison and Battle Follows Desperate
Effort of Paren to Escape

made desperate lunge for the sheriff.
Both were powerful men and the sheriff
while caught unaware, battled desper-
ately to prevent the escape of Paren.
Paren pushed the sheriff toward the
window and declared his intention of
hurting the sheriff through the win
dow. In the first grand rush of the
Infatuated prisoner the window in the
little toilet room was mashed and
Paren picked up pieces of the broken
glass and using them as a weapon re-
peatedly stabbed the sheriff, cutting
him with great gashes about the face.
At the same THE he used his teeth
so effectively as to "half bite off"
the sheriff's nose.

and during that period I learned that
one of the most important things for
successful government is obedience to
law and constituted authority. If
elected to the Office of sheriff, I will
take the oath prescribed by the laws
of the state of Wisconsin, and in that
oath will swear to support the consti-
tuition of the United States and the
constitution of the state Of Wisconsin,
and to faithfully discharge the duties
of the Office Of sheriff of Kenosha coun-
ty to the best of my ability. l do not
consider this oath to be empty words,
but feel that it means exactly what it
says.
Won't Make Laws.
AS sheriff of Kenosha county I will
not be in position to make or ameni.
laws. The legislature of the state and
the congress of the United States are
the law-making powers, and my sole
duty will be to enforce the laws. For
three years I served the county Of Ke-
nosha as deputy sheriff, with the duty
of patroling the roads as a motorcycle
policeman. During that time I en-
forced the law impartially, and am now
and at all times have been willing to
stand upon my record as deputy sher-
if. believe in law enforcement, and
if I cannot be elected to the office of
sheriff of Kenosha county on the plat
ford of law enforcement, I do not wish
the ofice.-William J. Frazier.

postmaster general under Grant. Miss
Howe was admitted to the most ex-
elusive official and social circles in
Washington. She was brilliant con-
versationalist, widely known as a
reader of the best in literature and
she had a close personal grasp on the
inside political life in Washington. AT
one time Harpers and company offered
her what then was considered a fabu-
lous sum to write for publication a
story Of the inside political life at
Washington, but she declined the
invitation, declaring that she did not
care to give out the story of per-
sonal friendships.
Home Literary Shrine.
Her home in New York for years
was literary shrine for men and
women who knew the best things in
literature and she was the most gra-
cious of entertainers. Many of the
older residents Of Kenosha today re-
called interesting stories of the life
of Miss Howe while in Kenosha and all
of them paid high tribute to her as
woman and as a litterateur.

Passengers to Aid.

Meyer fought gamely under the ham
dicap of the little room and his in
juries and at the same time he shouted
for the aid of the rest of the people
in the car. Several men went to the
aid of the sheriff and Paren was finally
subdued. After the battle was over
Meyer dropped to the floor suffering
from exhaustion and from the loss of
blood which had flowed freely from
wounds in his face and head. He was
cared for as we'll as possible on the
train and the engineer was ordered to
speed the train to Milwaukee Paren
was under the care of passengers
who had orders to kill him if he
attempted to escape.
AS soon as the train reached Mil
waukee Sheriff Meyer was removed to
the Emergency hospital in an ambul-
ance and waiting patrol wagon took
Paren to the police station.
Causes Sensation Here.
The first word of the serious injury
of the sheriff came to the Evening
News just after FIVE o'clock this morn
ing and later in the morning the Of
ficials of the North Western Railway
company notified the men at the Jail
of the facts in the case. Deputy
Sheriff William ]. Frazier was the first
to volunteer to aid the sheriff and he
left on the first train for Milwaukee
to offer his services to take Paren on
the remainder of the trip to Waupun.
Under-sheriff Alex Ritter left for Mil
waukee just after nine o'clock to see
that the sheriff had every care at the
hospital and to see that Paren was
safely started for prison. Bulletins
issued by the Evening News told the
first story of the injury to the
sheriff and it caused a profound SEN
sation in Kenosha.
Parents Identity Not Known.
Nothing is known of the real facts
in regard to Paren. 1t was admitted
that he had pleaded guilty to the
charge of burglary under an assumed
name and efforts to find some facts in
regard to him at addresses he had
given we're without results. The police
believed that the man might have been
dangerous gun-man and they had
used great caution in handling him be-
fore he was sent over to the court to
plead guilty. The fact that Paren had
been a model prisoner at the jail may
have resulted in the sheriff and his
aids being just little off their guard.
When the reports of the serious in
jury to the sheriff were noised about
the city scores of people went to the
Jail to offer sympathy and to get the
last word as to the condition of the
wounded sheriff
Reports sent out by press associa-
tons that the sheriff had been dis
armed at the time of the attack, were
without any foundation in fact.

ting costs. In addition, they assert
that the reeently-enacted Legislation
to force railroad construction, is un-
constitutional
While the people of central Idaho
would indeed welcome railroad build
ing into the interior country, it is a
foregone conclusion that the railroads,
themselves, will not aeeede to
the demands of the public utilities
commission without a bitter fight.
Virtually no railroad, when first con
structed, yielded revenue commensu-
rate with the costs of operation.
Had the railroads, which years ago
penetrated the western deserts to the
Pacific ocean, depended upon imme
date operating revenue to justify the
building of the roads, they would
never have been built Development
of the country follows railroad con
struction in practically every instance,
and does not ante-date the advent of
the rails of steel and the locomotive.
True it was that elaborate land
grants were made by the government
in early days to stimulate railroad
building, but Idaho county, an empire
in itself, has far more to offer in the
near future in the way of business to
the railroad that may punctuate its
sides, its prairies and its val
leys, than was to be derived in an
equal time through land grants accom-
panying a similar expenditure in rail
road construction in the olden days.

MIR. ANDO COMMENTS ON
FREE PRESS EDITORIAL

Editor Free Press:
You were perfectly correct when
you said in your recent editorial en-
titled Japanese And Unto nism,
that the move to induce the japanese
in Hawaii to affiliate with the
American Federation of Labor is tana-
tamount to admission by the laborites
that the japanese are no real menace
to the American working man so
long as they can be educated into
his way of thinking
1t is a significant fact that at least
for the last five or six years the re-
lations between the japanese labor
ers on the coast and organized labor
in the same region has been a very
cordial one. This is not an Oratorical
statement 1t is a statement of fact,
pure and simple. The reason for
this in my mind is the cessation of
incoming Japanese labor into the Uni
ted States ever since the so-called
gentleman S agreement was made. The
American labor protested against the
importation of orentals, but when
the impOrtations came to an end the
protest which manifested in various
ways naturally ceased.
One of the popular erroneous ideas
concerning the Japanese labOrers in
the United States is that they work
for cheaper wages. AS a matter of
fact they do not work for cheaper
that they do not work as unskilled
workers. A great many of them are
unskilled laborers, but their wages
are much higher than the unskilled
Greek, Italian or even American
laborers. The organized labor on the
coast knows this fact and its attitude
toward Japanese laborers has been
very friendly.
For the past few the organized la
Dor in the northwest patiently induced
japanese laborers to join the unions.
According to the report of the sec
rotary of lumber workers union, the
japanese membership in the northwest
last year amounts to five hundred.
When the general strike was declared
in Seattle last year, no Japanese work
res were seen scabbing. One Of the
most interesting things was that al
most every japanese employer urged
their employees to join the strike,
saving that such action would be
harmonious with the best interest of
not only japanese laborers, but the
japanese community in general.
So far as the present outlook is
it seems as if there would
never be serious truoble arising be-
tween American laborcrs and Japan
csc laborers. They have lived in
harmony and peace for the past five
or six years and there is every reason
to believe that the present status
will be maintained to the last.

TAFT RAPS NON-PARTISANS

Much has been written and said OF
the Non-partisan league, which or
mated in North Dakota, and invaded
Idaho two years ago, and evidence
which from time to time has come to
1ioht discloses that the Non partisan
league, as a political organization, is
not only unwholesome, in that it
provokes discomfort and class hatred,
Int is decidedly socialistic.
No more convincing analysis of the
Non-partsan league, its purpose and
character, has been made than that
recently uttered by William Howard
Taft, former president of the United
States, who, on his recent western
tour, said:
The Non partisan league move
ment, as / said once in Minneapo-
lis. is merely populism carried to
the nth degree. If the move
ment gains control it must run
its course, and sooner or later it
Will De completely Stdhpeu Ouo'
Those who aided in the organi
cation or direction of the move
ment will be found in the future
Indignantly disclaiming any part
they took in it.
North Dakota already is turn
ing against the league. A split
has come into the organization
there because some of the state
officials refused to go to the
lengths demanded by leaders like
A. c. Townley and because the
people have found the Non-parti-
san league and triple alliance
movements in this state have be-
gun to lose ground.
The threat of the triDle alliance
and the Non-partisan league to
enter the Republican primaries is
