GET NOTICE TODAY
Was Former Editor of Kenosha
Blade, Kenosha Kicker and
Labor Herald.

Letters received in Kenosha today
announced the death of Harry W. Mar
den, long prominent in the newspaper
world of Kenosha and for many years
one of the most active men in the po-
litical life Of the city and county. Mr..
Marden died at his home at Hammond,
Indiana, on Tuesday, October 18th, but
the first news of his death reached Ke-
nosha friends today. The funeral was
held at Hammond two weeks ago and
the remains were laid at rest in Oak
hill cemetery there under the direction
of the Masonic lodge of Hammond. He
is survived by his widow.
Friends Express Grief.
The announcement of the death of
Mr.. Marden to his Kenosha friends has
brought many expressions Of grief. He
was for years connected with the news
paper world of Kenosha and he was
accorded the honor Of being one of
the most vigorous writer's ever con-
nected with the fourth estate" in Wis
consin.
Mr.. Marden was a native of Kent,
England, where he was born December
20, 1885, He took up the work of jour
nalism before he attained his majority
and as "free lance" was connected
with many of the leading papers in
this section of the country. He came
to Kenosha in the early nineties and
for ten years he was connected with
M al
of the "Kenosha Blade" which was
properly characterized as a Journal
of Protest" Then he edited the exc
lnosha Kicker" which was more of a
journal of protest and which brought
him much into the limelight. Many
people protested against his vigorous
attacks on men and institutions and
several times he was the object of per-
sonal assaults during his stormy ca
reer in Kenosha.
Labor Herald Last Venture.
His last venture in journalism in
Kenosha was the "Kenosha Labor Her
ald," which he edited for only a short
time. When he disposed of this prop
erty he left Kenosha and went to Ham
mond where he was active in his con-
nection with the printing trades as a
man high in the organization of the
W. B. Conkey company. Later he was
placed in charge of all the printing of
the Enterprise Bed company in Ham
mond. For two years he had been an
invalid and his death came while he
was a patient at sanitarium.
During his life in Kenosha he was
connected with many social organiza-
tions and he was active in the Masons,
the Knights of Pythias, and other fra
ternal organizations. He was best
known, however, as a vigorous para
grapher.

Athens, Greece.-Mauy difficulties re-
garding succession to the Greek throne
will result from the death of King
Alexander, which occurred last night.
There is every indication that the
throne will be offered to Prince Paul,
third son of former King Constantine,
but as condition, King Constantine
must formally abdicate and Prince
George, older brother of Prince Paul,
must renounce his rights. 1t is prob
able that King Constantine will at first
refuse to meet these conditions, but it
is understood Premier Venizelos will
produce arguments of some Importance.
Constantine's financial status is we'll
known, and it is thought the under
standing that the premier will agree
to restore the former kings suppressed
pension, if the above terms are accept
ed. Only in the event of Constantine's
persistent refusal would there be a
question of the establishment of a
republic, but it is known that Premier
Venizelos is of the opinion that Greece
is not yet ripe for that form of gov
eminent. Admiral P. Coundouriotis,
former minister Of marine, is believed
to be the government official most ia
vored for the appointment as regent of
Greece, to hold office until the success
sor Of King Alexander, who died last
night, ascends the throne. He was
formerly member of the Salonika
government and is known to be friend
ly to the entente.

Mr.. Herzog had ever cast in any cleo
ton, as he attained voting age only a
few days ago. AS student at North
western University, Mr.. Herzog will
not be able to be in Kenosha on cleo
tion day and he took advantage of the
state law which permitted him to sign
and seal ballot in advance.
County Clerk Holderness came to his
Office in the cold grey dawn of the
early morning to register the first vote
of the election. Herzog comes from
one of the old Republican families in
Kenosha county and after he had seal
ed the ballot to be turned over to the
election board in the town of Somers,
he said: 81 am proud of the fact that
it has been my privilege to cast my

it was expected that he would be in
for the "killing" and stick to the Bit
ter end of the campaign. He told the
county clerk that he had been called
away and that he would be gone for
three weeks and he was permitted to
seal vote and cast it.
DR.. T. J. Toner cast the third vote
and he was closely followed by Alfred
Kolpin. DIR. Toner and Mr.. Kolpin left
late in the morning for an extended
motor trip through northern Wiscon-
sin and it was announced that they

today declared that they could not be

posted in the ballot box at the Office
of the county clerk previous to the

of voting in this manner and losing
votes in Kenosha county is no longer
tolerated. The county clerk will &C
cept the ballots Of both men and won
en- who will be absent from the city on
election day and who make the affidavit
that they are legal voters here.
Thirteen applications for absent vot-
ers were received today and the votes

see to it that the applications for votes
are forwarded to them at once that
