in our very limited experience
It is to be noted that most Of these places
have a Standing bar and that people are
standing at it consuming drinks THESE
drinks may all be of the red or brown variety
but, from the actions of some OF the people
coming from them, this red or brown pop IS
developing wonderful kick.
Most Of these new bars are OF the mahog-
any type. 1t is possible that this is just the
expression of hope that some time there VIII
be a rail along the front Of them with the
familiar "Well, let's have another" but it IS
more probable that the bar is there because 1T
is the best form for the concealing Of certain
ingredients which go into the making OF a
first class jag.
Road houses of this kind may be necessary
and desirable, but there should be deputy
sheriff for every one Of them opened, and his
duty should be to see to it that they are kept
desirable"
Kenosha county is doing considerable in the
battle against booze, but the fight is being
made harder by the continualopening of these
places.
Town boards are more thoughtful of a few
dollars which may be secured for permit than
they are of the morals Of the town when they
permit these places to multiply.

TRY FOR A CHANGE.

ssWhere are you going for your va
cation ?" friend asked Mr.. Mann OF
Anyhow.
''same OF place. Salt Creek" re-
piled Mr.. Mann.
'.Why don't you ever change 2"
''Too much trouble finding a new
place"
That's the attitude of many vaca-
TONERS. And it isn't particularly
good one to adopt, if the proper re-
suits are to. be gotten.
The fundamental purpose of va
cation is to allow complete change
Of life, habits, surroundings and peo-
pie. There should be a change of
scenery, change of food, change OF
the preparation of food.
In such vacations lie psychological
values that result in the greatest
benefits of the vacationer. A return
to the same place year after year; Q
meeting Of the same people-all such
samenesses leave little to the mag
ination and offer few surprises. In
brief, they are all right but they are
psychologically off key.
The ideal vacation would be one in
which all persons could go back to
boyhood simplicity of mind and play;
a complete making over.
Since this is impossible to most
folks, get the next best thing: as com
plete change as is possible each
year.

BLAINE TURNED HIM LOOSE.

Walter Oleniczak is held in the county jail
in Milwaukee charged with making a sensa-
tional assault upon a Racine girl. He is one of
gang, and the facts brought out in the inves-
tigation of the crime Of which he is charged
and which he has confessed, indicates that the
gang is of the thoroughly criminal sort.
Oleniczak developed the criminal instinct"
some time ago. He was taken as burglar
and, following trial by a jury Of his peers, he
was sent to prison. The court sentencing him
gave him ten years in prison, probably because
with better knowledge in the facts Of his
character and his tendencies they knew that
society should be protected against him The
present Governor Of Wisconsin committed the
sentence of this fellow and turned him loose
to continue his criminal career. Of course, if
the Governor of Wisconsin did not see fit to
release such men from prison, the safety Of
young girls would be a lot more secure in Wis
consin. The victim of this released criminal
came from Racine county, but there is no as
surance that the victim of the next one of the
same kind will not come from Kenosha county
1t may be your daughter or mine.
One way to safeguard the girls Of Wiscon-
sin is to keep men with the criminal mind
developed in prison and not have a governor
whose sympathies run away with his good
sense.

Five hundred thousand more were

Under the new regulations only 161,-
600 will be admitted this year.
sYou can make your own guess at
how many of these will attempt to
come in anyway says w. w. Sibray,
assistant commissioner general of inn
migration.
"There probably will be less obvi-
Gus smuggling, but lot more of hid
den smuggling.

checked considerably now.

Immigrants are sneaking into the
United States all along the Mexican
and Canadian borders and the Florida
coast, Sibray declares.

the river is shallow" he explains,
scores of Mexicans have been in the
business of wading across with China
men and others on their backs.
The Mexicans usually charge 50
cents person for this service. When

shore, they dump their human cargo
into the water and scurry back for

with miles of unguarded border
along the Canadian side, all the aliens
had to do was to step across, in the
past. They were flocking in by auto
mobiles and farmers wagons. We
even have found several coming in
under loads of hay.
'Most of the smuggling is carried
on along the Florida coast. They
come first to Cuba, then board tramp
| steamers which run them ashore in
hidden bays and coves.
'At the large seaports our greatest
troubl is with deserving seamen
Thousands of contraband aliens ship
on various vessels, then desert upon

The new law, sibray thinks, is full
of loopholes.

PAPER.

In the year 1889 Canada will fur
nish four-ffths of the newsprint pa
per used by American newspapers. So
estimates Lord Rothermere, the fore
most British publisher. Canada al
ready supplies half of our newsprint.
This would be a dangerous near
monopoly in the hands of any but the
most friendly of neighbor nations. A
monopoly in newsprint would be more
powerful than almost any form Of
political power-if it weren't that the
thing that counts is the message the
ink carries, rather than the paper it.
