An IMPORTANT DECISION

With the general breakdown of
farmers telephone lines, because 10
PROVISION was made for depreciation
in plhnt and equipment, the Oregon
decision of the Supreme court, that
a Publice Service Commission must
make rates including a reasona le
depreciation charge, is very import
ant.
The Oregon Public Service Com
mission in the rate case of the Col
umbia and Nehalem railroad decided
that It had authority to make rates
allowing a fair roturn for service
including annual depreciation of the
property, and the plaintiffs appeal
ed from this decision.
"To hold otherwise in the courts
opinion "would be to say that when
an individual or corporation de-
votes property TO public uee #
amounts to a voluntary sacrifice or
thanks offering ON the public alter"
In the very nature Of things
the, opinion continues at the con
clusion, "the factors involved in an
inquiry of this kind are so many aal
so variable that II IS impossible 20

on Offer for Completed Court
House This Afternoon.

G. E. Bell, Minneapolis architect,
who has q reputation for building
court houses, appeared before the
county board this afternoon and Of
fered to furnish the county with a
fully equipped and furnished court
house to meet all demands Of the
county for term Of seventy-fye years

venience and the building of the jail,

pensation. Joseph Lindl Of Kenosha,

sition. He believed that he could build

cost of one million dollars. 1t was

pressed with the two propositions and
that the whole question of the court
house would probably be re-opened

used for county Offices.

OLD SHOE STORE
CHANGES HAND

A pioneer business in Kenosha
changed hands today when announce
ment was made Of the sale of the
Peterson Shoe store on Market Square
to Austin Brothers. The new owners
of the business are now in charge and
the business is to be continued. While
the consideration was not made public
it is stated that it was in the neigh
borhood Of thirty-fve thousand dol
lars. Austin brothers take over the
building and the stock. The stock is
one Of the best stocks of shoes in the
city and the business is an established
one which has been continued by ]. A.
Peterson for more than twenty-five
years.
1t is declared that the plan of the
Austin Brothers includes the the man
agement of two large shoe stores in
the city. The one now on Main street
will later be removed to the new Dale
building on Market Square and the
business purchased today will be con-
tinued, by agreement with Mr.. Peter
son, under the name Of the J. A. Peter
son Shoe company. Under the plans
made the policy of the Peterson store
will be continued under the new own
ership. Isaac Youngquist, who has
been connected with Mr.. Peterson in
the operation Of the store through all
the years it has been established, will
remain with the new owners and have
charge of the repair department.
Peterson Going to Sweden.
John A. Peterson. the retiring owner
of the store, is going to Sweden. He
has not visited the old home in Swe-
den for many years and he plans to
leave for ar extended visit at the
haunts of his childhood just as soon
as he can secure passage on a boat
made arrangements to secure his
passports and he will sail some time
in July.
81 am just going to rest for a while
and then am going back to visit in
Sweden" said Mr.. Peterson after he
had announced the sale of the prop
erty. "Kenosha people have been
mighty good to me and in leaving the
business I feel that I want to say
Much Obliged to all of them. The
twenty-five years in business at the old
stand have been years Of hard work
but they have been made pleasant
on account of the confidence shown
in me by the people"
Mr.. Peterson was one of the last Of
the older shoe dealers in Kenosha.
His business has been established for
years and his trade has been CON
sidered one of the largest in this Sec
tion of Wisconsin.

Child Bride Back
Home Again
Mrs. Eliza Champion Burkee Goes
Home with Her Mother on Advice
of the Municipal Judge.

Mrs. Eliza Champion Burkee, who
was married to George Burkee at
Crown Point, Ind, on last Wednesday
evening and whose honeymoon ended
when she was taken into custody at
the orders of her mother, went back
home again on Friday afternoon and
it was announced that an action would
be brought in the Municipal Court to
have the marriage annulled. No charge
was made against the young woman
when she was brought to the court but
family conference with Judge Tully
as an invited guest was held and the
judge urged the young woman to re-
turn to the home Of her mother. Mr..
Burkee returned to the home Of his
parents. The arrangement was not
agreeable to the young people most at
interest and it is not improbable that
later there will be another elopement.

Nash Speeders
Face the Judge

Motor speed officers were making
wholesale arrests on Sheridan road
this afternoon. A feet of drivers who
were taking Nash cars to Chicago
tuned up their cars to high mark as
they started out of the city. The mo-
tor cops were on the job. They let the
drivers go far enough to give evidence
that they were speeding and then took
eleven Of them in tow.
The eleven speedsters were lead
back to the Municipal Court building
and ushered in before Judge Tully.
They pleaded guilty" and fine of SIS
each was assessed and paid.
The speed cops trailed them as they
left the city the second time and it is
said that there was no attempt to get
above the speed limit. The example
served as warning to other speed
sters along the line and no other ar
rests were necessary.

Want Law Repealed
Not "Hamstrung'
Leader Of 'Wets" in Kenosha Approves
Action of Order of Camels to
Respect Federal Statutes.

Secretary Bahr of the Kenosha cara
van of the Order Of Camels today APP
proved of the action taken by the
Grand caravan Of the order in demand
ing clean cut, legitimate methods in
fighting for the repeal Of the Volstead
enforcement act. "We believe the Vol
stead act as well as the eighteenth
amendment to be unconstitutional,
declared Secretary Bahr, "and we mean
to fight it to a finish, in business
like, legitimate, straightforward and
honest way, without attempts Of de-
feating seemingly unnecessary extray-
agant appropriations for the really I'M
successful enforcement of the acts.
We are not jumping into radicalism,
but our respect for the law will guide
us in a timely powerful organized way
to restore again to the American peo-
pie the personal liberties which have
SO unjustly been taken from them"
The action taken by the national
headquarters of the order, IN a tale-
gram to Speaker Gillett, in regard to
attempts being made to defeat enforce
ment appropriations, follows: "The
Order of Camels, with potential voting
strength of $4,000 protest attempts to
hamstring the Volstead law by defeat
Of the enforcement appropriation as a
move inviting open lawlessness and
universal disregard of the constitution
and federal statutes. We oppose this
law but insist on clean cut, legitimate
fight for its repeal"
The next meeting Of the Kenosha
caravan of the order will be held next
Wednesday evening in the K. of C.
Hall, at 8:15 p. M, and decidedly in
teresting session is anticipated. The
Kenosha chapter now has member
ship of several hundred members and
new members are coming in regularly.
1t is expected at the meeting next
Wednesday evening to formulate plans
to cooperate with all the locals of the
First Wisconsin district to select a
candidate for congress on the "wet"
platform and officially endorse other
candidates for legislative offices, as
we'll as participate in the approval of
state, county and city elections.

SHE RAN AWAY
LIKE MOTHER
Eliza Champion Burke
Has Honeymoon Rude
" Interrupted.
TAKE BRIDE 20 JAIL


Because, as she says, she kept up
the traditions of the family and just
like her mother eloped and married
the man of her choice, Eliza Champion
Burke, bride of two days, was at the
county Jail today, weeping just little
and waiting for the old folks to decide
to forgive and welcome.
Mrs. Burke was up to last Wednes-
day evening Miss Eliza Champion and
her home is at 1915 Pearl street. On
Wednesday she eloped with George
Burke, Fl years of age, and they were
married at Crown Point, Ind. They
returned to Kenosha IN the wee hours
of the morning today, ready to receive
the family blessing and they received
it from the mother of young Burke,
but it seems that it is lacking from
the standpoint of Mrs. Champion. AS
soon as the mother heard that the
clippers had returned to Kenosha, she
ordered the police to take the young
bride into custody and hold her until
plans had been carried out for the
anullment of the marriage. According
to the mother, the young bride is just
sixteen years of age. The bride did
not discuss this part of the disruption
of the honeymoon but she did not APP
pear to be greatly over the age an
nounced by the mother.
Eloped Just Like Mother.
81 ran away and got married just
like my mother did," Mrs. Burke told
the police this morning. Mother was
agreeable enough to George a little
while ago, but recently she just ma
turally seemed to change her mind and
well, we eloped and went to Crown
Point and got married and that is all
there is to it,"
The young bride did not show the
slightest indication of being tired Of
her bargain and the husband was rigl
with her at the police Office waiting to
demand that his bride go with him to
the home of his mother where they
plan to make their temporary home.
At the jail Mrs. Burke was charged
with having run away from home but
the officials admitted that it was hard
to find law which would warrant her
arrest. Plans were made to have the
case come up in the Municipal Court
this afternoon.
1t was stated that Burke and his
bride had returned from their wedding
trip early this morning. Members of
the Burke family were sleeping when
they arrived but Burke and his bride
appeared for breakfast and were given
a most cordial welcome.

Hughes by vote of the Socialists, Nor

tion of the Socialist party of America
in the keynote speech here today. If
there remains any large section of

Of Milwaukee was elected for chairman
and Walter Cook of New York, secre-

length Of time he believes that the

Three Divorces
in Local Courts

Three divorce cases were heard in
the court of Kenosha county on Friday
afternoon, both Judge Belden in the
Circuit Court and Judge Tully in the
Municipal Court giving up sessions to
hearing the troubles of mis-mated
couples.
In the Circuit Court, Judge Belden
handed down decree in the suit Of
Maria Sustercic VS.. Joseph Sustercic.
The couple was married in Kenosha on
November 20, 1904 and the wife charg-
ed cruelty. 1t was shown that an es-
tate of $4,000 was concerned in the
suit and Judge Belden ordered that the
wife be paid $4,000 as her share Of the
estate.
Charles Akerlund in the Municipal
Court charged his wife, Elizabeth
Akerlund, with desertion and cruelty.
The couple were married in September
of 1911 and they had lived in Racine.
Akerlund said his wife went to visit a
sister in 1918 and that he did not see
her for year and when they met
again she told him that she would
never live with him.. Akerlund, who Is
now resident Of Racine, was given
the custody of fourteen-year d
adopted son who was the only witness
at the hearing.
Judge Tully granted divorce to
Mrs. Sophia Gergitz from her husband,
Dennis Gergitz. She charged cruelty.
Gergitz did not appear to contest the
granting Of the decree. The wife was
granted the custody of three minor
children.
