IN MUNICIPAL COURT

Civil actions in municipal court are
rarely reported in the newspapers al
though the court spends a large part of
its time in settling these smaller wran-
giles.
An action was tried last week that
had many of the earmarks of a cele-
bratcd cause.
Miss Anna Rechcygl sued Roman
Milski a former tenant for Sl62.32 and
the defendant counterclaimed foi
Sl22.50. The defense involved the al
legged neglect of the landlady plaintiff
to obey an order of the Board of
Health that she cause to have discon-
tnued, removed and otherwise abated
minor erection and noisesome appen-
dagc thereto in the backyard, relic
of the more primitive conditions un-
der which a harder generation existed.
Counsel in the litigation were Attor-
neys A, d. Strouf and Walter Clark
The jury thought that an equitable ad-
juStment would he about $3.50 They
found that neither had anything com
ing, which, it appears, throws the costs
onto the plaintiff, a not inconsiderable
item.
Darwin Schuettc paid $40 and costs
on complaint of going AZ miles per
hour in his trusty hivver on route mum
Der 6. This would seem to dispose Of
the doubt raised in court last week as
to the ability Of the Ford to work up
to 3S miles per hour.
Ole Thoan was found in peaceful
slumbcr in the rear of the Milwaukee
House at Tenth and Commercial
streets, and paid S5 and costs on a
charge Of disordcrly conduct. He ac-
ceptcd the cops word for it that his
sleeping was disordcrly and paid up.
Charles Fischer saw spare rim and
tire on the back of Walter Gennrich's
Ford parked at a dance hall at White
law lately and thought he could use
them to better advantage than the
owner lie paid $40 and costs Tuesday
for his poor developed property sense.
Stripping cars Of everything but the
motor at dances about the county has
grown into a popular diversion

THE COUNTY FAIR

The county fair is less than two
weeks in the future. 1t will be big.
ger and better fair than ever before
| because no stone has been left un-
turned by the officers of the associa-
ton and particularly the secretary
| Fred Borcherdt, Jr,, to encourage ex-
hibits and to obtain the best attrac-
| tions.
The fair is by no means a simple
amusement enterprise and if there are
those who look upon it in that light
they would do we'll to go to the
grounds fair weel, and study the eXhi-
bitiOn in its various phases. There will
be amusements in plenty for those who
are looking for them, but the visitor
who gives no thought to the really seri-
Gus business of the fair is making a
mistake.
Primarily the county fair is intend
ed to be an educational institution and
an aid to agricultural development.
Manitowoc is, first of all, an agricul-
tural county The farming interests
constitute the mainStay of our prosper
ity.
At this time and probably at all flu
ture times agricultural features will
predominant at the fair. This is right
and proper Manitowoc county is in
the farming business which is recog
nized to be about the most important
business in the world. Life itself is
dependent on the products of the farm
and we cant afford to let the plow
stop. The county fair is educating the
farmer-showing him how~to make two
blades of grass grow where one grew
before, showing him how to improve
his crops and his live stock, showing
him how to make more bushels and
tons to the acre, showing him how to
do hundreds of things that make for
bigger production, for better methods,
for increased earnings, and for human
betterment. That in brief is the sort
of "show" that will be given at the
fair.
Though agriculture comes first it
does not follow that other material in
terests are to be neglected. The agri-
cultural board are planning to make
the fair an exposition representative of
all of Manitowoc's material resources
and her progress in various lines,
City residents should not make the
mistake of feeling that the county fair
is exclusively for country people The
county fair is for ge.ybody VIC 'eels
an interest in county and city progress.
Manitowoc has contributed her share
for providing the fair with a perma-
nent home. 1t remains for ManitOwOc
to do full share in the line of patron
age, toward making the fair success
full and growing institution equal to
any and eXcelled by none"

CALLS CHIEF TO ORDER

The old feud between the Socialist
and Fire Chief Kratz has been merely
slumbering as is evidenced by the fol-
lowing communication sent last week
to the chief by the mayor, and which
explains itself:
"My understanding is that you are
now, and have been since June 10,
1922, operating the Fire Department
with less. men than you were author
lied and instructed by action of the
City Council to engage, as the number
of men necessary to give our citizens
adequate and proper fire protection.
81 further understand and know,
that the Board of Police and Fire Com
misSoners have in accordance with the
law, held and conducted proper ex-
aminatiOns of applicants for the posi-
ton as City Firemen, and have filed
with you the names of those, who sue
ceSSfully met the requirements of the
Board and are now on the eligible list
furnished you by the Commissioners
at, therefore, seems to me, that in
as much as the City Council has fixed
the number of men you are to engage
and maintain in your department, and
the Board of Police and Fire Commits
sionerS have furnished you proper
eligible list of names from which YOU
are to make your selections, that you
are assuming the authority to saw to
the City Council and the Commission
ers, how many men shall be maintained
in the department and how and when
they shall be engaged.
"Therefore, l desire to inform you,
that | am not appraised of any law
granting you this assumed authority,
and shall expect you to at once select
the required number of men from the
list of names submitted to you by the
Board of Police and Fire Commission
ers, to bring the fighting strength of
'"O IlIC department up 10 tnat num- |
Der which you were instructed to main
tain by the City Council"
The chief in explanation said that
the delay was caused by his desire to
appoint a man especially fitted for op-
Grating the city's motor pumper and
that none of the eligibles had been ex-
amined to test their qualifications for
this, but that he would obey orders and |
do the best he could

THE PRIMARY CAMPAIGN

The various individuals who seek to
sacrifice themselves to save the state
and nation continue to honor our city
with their presence and eloauence
from time to time.
Last Thursday evening Mayor Nc
Henry of Oshkosh, specialist in being
the third person in the fight, addressed
the assembled multitude on a street
corner, somebody having forgotten to
light up the courthouse steps. Mr.. Nc
Henry is also seeking the place on the
ballot for which Mr. Morgan and Gov
ernor Blaine are contending He is
there with the talk stuff
lie is associated in the public mind
with the wet cause and justly so. He
is not merely damp; he is as wet as
Niagara "Volsteadism" In his large
vocabulary is synonymous with "abom-
nation" lie is a courageous and sim
cere man with considerable ability and
a good talker and prohibition isn't the
only thing he talks about Nearly
everyone thinks that his interfering
himself into the fight merely draws off
enough votes to make the main contest
less decisive, if it happens to he close.
Martin Paulson, anti-LaFollette can
didate for secretary of state, was in
the city Monday for a meeting but
seems to have had his dates mixed as
he was due at Sheboygan. He will
come back later.
Last Friday Herman Eckcrn, La
Toilette candidate for attorney gener.
al, held forth in the open air. Mr..
Eckern is the former state insurance
commissioner who held the office for
while by force some years ago, during
a dispute over title to the office. He
gave a typical progressive" speech
and urged the voters to stand by Bob.
William j. Morgan, opponent of
Governor Blaine for the Republican
gubernatorial nomination is to be here
August 2I.

COAL COMES IN

Last week when it was reported that
there was but a ten days supply of
coal in the city news came that the
state fuel administrator had directed
that a part of a cargo of Pocahontas
coal should be unloaded here. A part
of the shipload of coal on the steamer
Clemens Reiss was discharged at Esca-
naba, Michigan, the steamer arrived
here with 5000 tons Sunday.
This will carry the city OYER safely
if the coal strike is settled soon and
shipments begin which tht%e is ground
for hopes will happen.
Priority is being given to public
service companies.

the range Of human understanding
The iockeyng is bewildering. The new
ordinance was ready for a vote and
had the approval of the parties but it
was sent back to the committee with
out vote, 1t is understood that the
bus line may go via Two Rivers pend
ing the adoption of the ordinance, if
the street car company does not OBJ
iect.
In a moment of exultation over the
vision of the "cty beautiful" the coun-
ell afyear or two ago entered into a
contract with a landscape artist named
J. Cushing Smith under which the city
is obligated to pay the artist a sort of
royalty on all work done in the parks
under his plans from now until the
astral seas commingle n the clash of
chaos. They have already paid the ar
tist Sl732 of the taxpay a.,I hard earn
ed money, and the conviction that they
have bitten into an unripe persimmon
has been long gathering force. Not
that Mr.. j. Gushing Smith is not a
competent artist, but that he is too
competent, both as an artist and fnan-
cier for guileless aldermen in city of
this size. The council voted to give the
artist the choice of two alternatives.
lie may take $3.50 spot cash, and call
It all off, or take his own course about
getting more.
Sidewalks were ordered along both
sides of the new boulevard from Michi-
gan avenue south to the yiaduct.
