Wisconsin has from time to time
been an annex of various other states.
After Ohio was admitted to the
Union, Wisconsin from 1805 to 1809
formed a part of Indiana territory.
From 1809 to 1818 Wisconsin was
embraced in the territory of Illinois.
When Illinois became a state all the .
country north of it, including Wis-
consin, was joinea to jmcnigan. Aiier
more than forty years of shifting
Wisconsin was admitted into the
Union with her present boundaries in
1848.
MANDEL BASEMENT ORDINANCE
NOT PUT TO VOTE
Complying with the request of Wil
liam Sexton, att'y for Mandel Bros.,
Aid. Geo. Pretzel yesterday did not
call up the ordinance which will legal
ize the sub-basement of that depart
ment store if passed.
Sexton, corporation counsel under
the Harrison administration, has
been retained by Mandel Bros, as
their attorney in this fight for a spe
cial privilege from the council. Sex
ton wrote a letter to Aid. Pretzel, who
is chairman of the buildings and
grounds committee of the council,
asking him to hold it off, that he
hadn't been able to see some alder
men regarding it because he was go
ing out of town.
Sexton is very well acquainted with
certain aldermen. He can put up a
good argument to them on how they
should vote.
The Mandel Bros, sub-basement or
dinance has been hanging around the
council committees for a year now.
Present Fire Chief O'Connell says it's
safe. Former Chief Horan, killed in
the stockyards fire, was against sub
basements. Some physicians say it's
healthy; others say it isn't. But, get
ting away from those issues, the
question devolves down to the dry,
bare fact: Shall Mandel Bros, be per
mitted a special permit to break a
city statute?
Aldermen "who have followed the
measure with watchful eyes declare
that this stalling on the part of Man
del Bros, is a sign of weakness. They
say the ordinance is not going to be
passed.
Att'y Sexton, shortly before he left
town, told a Day Book reporter that
he thought there were enough votes
now in the council to pass the meas
ure. From the text of-the letter Mr.
Sexton has evidently changed his
mind since talking with the reporter.
