lem when it convened for the fall ses-
sion today. Sir Robert Horne, presi-
dent of the board of trade put the case

ised Mayors of London boroughs that
he would propose a solution for unem-

Register on Oct. rs
if You Have Moved
Law Is Specific Concerning Registra-
tion of Those Wishing to Vote in
General Election.

Tuesday, October 18th, is the last
opportunity for voters to register, ac-
cording to the announcement made this
morning by City Clerk George w.
Harrington. There will be no other
opportunity to register and the person
who fails to take advantage of that
opportunity will be obliged to have his
vote sworn in by affidavit on election
day. Voters will have to APPEAR in
person or make application for regis
tration in writing.
There was some discussion previous
to the primary day election as to the
rights of a person to be registered on
that day and cast his ballot at the
same time. 1t was ruled by the attor-
ney general at that time that every
primary election day is registration
day as well and that persons register
ed on that day may cast their ballot
as we'll.
There is no such issue raised at this
time. The election law is explicit in
its statement to the effect that persons
must appear personally to be register
ed week from tomorrow or send in a
written application. Their names can
not be handed in by friend or a ward
worker as is the practice at other
registration days. The election day is
not registration day as in the case
of the primary, and the law states that
election clerks are not permitted to add
any name to the registration list after
the expiration of the registration per-
iod on Tuesday, October 26th.
All voters, therefore, who have moved
since the primary or who were not reg
istered at the primary, must see that
their names are placed on the list on
Tuesday. week from today. Officials
say it is well to go to the registration
places to sea if your name is on the
list even though you voted at the pri-
mary.

Watchers of Freight Yards
Fooled When Shipment Is
There and Trucked in.
IS "LAST" HIPMENT
Suggestions of Government
Men Raiding Local Saloons
Fakes Sales More Guarded.

The "last shipment" of booze for
Kenosha got in on scheduled time but
the people who were anxiously watch
ing the freight yards of Kenosha with
the idea that they might get at least a
smell of the fragrant tipple-supp6sed
to be only a memory nowhere disap
pointed. Kenosha shipments of booze
have received good deal of publicity
in the past and while the dealings of
the men handling it are all declared
to be strictly under the law" it is
admitted that they would just as leave
have the shipments come in without
everyone being told about them. This
probably was the reason for this ship
ment coming up over the St. Paul road
and it was unloaded out at Truesdell
rather than in Kenosha.
Comes in Under Cover.
The shipment came into Truesdell
under the cover of darkness som etime
Thursday night or Friday morning and
some neighbors kept watch over it I'M
til Friday when the trucks came out
from Kenosha and it was hauled into
the city just like it had been a carload
of cabbage or sugar beets. There was
no one to follow the shipment this time
but it is asserted that the new cargo
reached a place where it found a SINH
lar companion or SO much Of the SINH
lar companion as was left after the
quenching the thirst of some Keno
shans and others for a period of a
month. If it is the 'last shipment" as
has been declared by the government
officials, it can be said that it was
sufficiently large to provide for a lot
of "jiggers" and "high- balls" with a
little bit of cocktail liquor on the
side. It was intimated among men who
appeared to have the full facts in the
case that lot of Kenosha people were
to have part of this cargo-if they had
the money to pay the exorbitant price
which is to be demanded for it by the
Kenosha whiskey trust
Saloon Men Expect Raids.
Saloon men in Kenosha were declared
to be getting the whiskey and other
hard liquor bottles under cover TODAY
as they expect that federal agents
working out Of the Chicago office Of
Prohibition Enforcement Officer Dali
rymple will stage raids here in the
next few days. These raids have been
staged in Milwaukee during the last
few days but their visit is declared was
declared an unalloyed success on ac-
count of the fact that the coming of
the federal officials was clipped off" to
the saloon men. Saloon men here said
today that they hadn't as yet received
the tip, but it was admitted that the
sale of liquor was going forward under
more guarded conditions and that it
was slightly harder to get drink than
it has been.
Prohibition Enforcement Officer Her
zog in Milwaukee said on Friday after
noon in an official statement that he
did not suspect the Office of the district
attorney there of giving out the tip
that raids on Milwaukee saloons were
planned. Herzog has repeatedly com
planned of lack of cooperation on the
part of the district attorneys office.

Gottlieb KusmauI is Granted Divorce

for divorce this morning when Judge
Tully granted a dissolution of we'd

in court but his attorneys, Cavanagh
and Mittelstaed, showed that he had
made several attempts to bring his

she declared that she would not come
