LOCATION OF THE MIxT.

Ths President has sent TO the Senate o
special message in response to a resoiu-
ton Of the Senate, under date Of Febru-
sry q. 1875. requiring the President to
institute inquiries as to the proper place
fos the location Of branch mint. He
also transmits the report Of DR.. Under
man, who Was directed BY the President
to look into the matter. Omaha. Kansas
City st. Louis. Chicago. Cincinnati and
Indianapolis possess nearly equal advan-
tages. On the score Of economy it 10
recommended that some old government
building, for which there Is no longer
any use. might be utilized. and 1t would
appear the city possessing such building
will prove the fortunate one. The old
government arsenal at Indianapolis is
pointed to by Linderman as building
suitable for q mint. and which would re-
quire but three months to reconstruct ii.
But this, according to the report should
be used for the coinage Of silver exclus-
lively. For the coinage Of gold and silver
ON Q grand scale st. Louis is pointed to
~ the city possessing every advantage.
which to our notion will give general
satisfaction. In this instance also the
old postoface is held out as an induce
mont. whereby the price of building
may be saved. This building. however,
cannot be obtained until the new post
ONCE is completed. which will take sew
srsl years yet. So. after all. the coveted
prize may slip from the grasp Of st.
Louis, and all on account of the econom-
ical streak that unsccountsbly has a
bearing on the question. Economy is not
to be deprecated. however. though it is
only practiced in matters Of no moment
by government officials. Where millions
are involved.a million more or less does n
matter. II it only finds its way to she
pockets Of select few. And now it only
remains for Congress to act on the recon-
mendations. and the choice will without
doubt fall to st. Louis. whether the post
ONCE can be utilized or not. II is GEN.
trally located. possesses every railroad
facility, and in addition is situated on

valued at $lS. 1872. which for one day is
nearly - good % the best. but few mines
doing better. We make no calculation
on this being daily occurrence however
for Il would be too good. The only re-
grets TO be entertained about the Ray
mond & Ely Is that it is not on the Com
stock, where it would take rank with any
mine outside Of the Consolidated
Virginia. Being within the Charmed
Circle is everything. That there is some
thing in having q bare location in that

claims command over that way. Some

these very claims have and will again sell

The boys of the Phoenix base ball club of
Watertown, mustered up sufficient courage
to go down to Lake Mills last Saturday
and play the cub Of that beautiful village.
The Lake Mills boys have earned ne
repu taton as bal! tossers, and achieved
a long series of victories over clubs in this
county until, we believe, they are regarded
as the champions. 1t was with some
hesitancy, therefore, that our boys met
these foemen Bnt in sharply contested
game the Phoenix boys defeated their Lake
Mills opponents by score Of ID to 8.
Considering that the Watertown boys have
had but little practice together this result
is very crafty ing to them and they have
right to feel proud of it. We append the
score:

The Central Wisconsin Fair.

citation is now in progress on the grounds
of the society in this city. A large num-
Der Of entries have been made up to the
present writing and every thing promises
well for highly successful exhibition.
Appearances indicate favorable weather
for the entire week and it will be safe to
assume that the attendance will be large
on each day of the fair. The races, which
begin Wednesday, will undoubtedly be the
best ever seen on the Waterto wn race course
A large number of the fastest trotters and
runners in the state are on the ground pre-
pared to contest for the liberal purses offer
ed by the Association, and extra induce
ments are offered in the sporting line. The
grounds are in fine condition and the track
in the best of order, The society sparng no
pains to have everything all right both for
visitors and exhibitors 1t is to be hoped
that the Central Wisconsin Fair this year
Will be one worthy of remembrance as the
Centennial fair OF the society.

ing an engagement of one week at Turner

startling play of Inshavogue in which F.
A. Vincent and Eva Vincent, took the
prominent parts supported by first class

in the hands of the Vincents who alone

intense interest throughout. Those who
stayed away Monday evening lost a good
thing, but at special request Inshavogue
will be played again this "wednesday

theatrical line will be properly sustained

JUNEAU, Sept. 5th, 1876.

JUNEAU, Sept. 5th, 1876.
Political matters are at a red hot point.
The Democratic convention meets on We'd
nesday, for nomination of Senator and
county officers. The caucus held at juneau
on Saturday evening last brought out the
largest crowd thai ever attended such a
meeting 1t would seem as if every Demo-
cratic voter of the town was on hand. The
main question was whether delegates in
favor or against John Lowt as a candidate
for Clerk of the Court should be elected.
The result was the election of anti -Lowth
delegates, but if in mental capacity the
delegates from other towns are 10 better
than those elected from Oak Grove and
Juneau, il will be hard crowd 1t is now
almost settled fact who the nominees will
be The ticket will be an extremely weak
one, and will give rise to very general dis
satisfaction even among the Democrats.
The Republican county convention has
been called to meet at this place on Thurs
day October H. According to resolution
adopted at the last county convention, the
number Of delegates from each town will
be apportioned on the basis of the number
of Republican votes poled at the last gen.
eral election, The whole numoer of dele
gates will be 1856. Each of the Watertown
wards in Dodge county will be entitled to
Q votes.

Mrs. j. K. Buchanan, died tnis morning of
wbuopng cough, after an illness continuing
eight weeks. Guy was only years and 6
months of age, but MS remarkable intellect
had attracted the attention of many older
citizens, and this, with his uniformly pleas

ed TOR him large circle of warm personal
friends. These all manifested their so)ici
tude during his sickness, and performed
every act of kindness that their interest in
his condition could prompt They will sin
cerely mourn his death, and sympathize
deeply with the afflicted parents, who thus
lose their only child. The funeral will take

to prevent anybody from having fine
nights enjoyment at this entertainment of

The ,attempt of "Major' Gardner to

paign parade uniforms adds another failure
to the democratic list of the season. The

We learn that the awarding of the contract
for the clothing of the democratic voters of
Watertown for the fall campaign was wise
ly deferred to future meeting. But it is
limited that when the contract is awarded
20 additional spindles will be needed in the
country. Those now running can pro-
badly supply the demand for all the Tilden
uniforms that will be needed here. We
learn that a apprehension prevailing as
to the color of the uniforms our democratic
friends would be obliged TO don, kept many
away from the meeting. Since the late
'nnpleasantness," "gray' is not popular
color.

Fire Alarm.

About halt past nine o'clock last Thurs.
day night, smoke was seen issuing from the
frame building on Second street, occupied
by Mr.. J. W. Mentink as grocery. Fire
was discovered in q stairway at the rear
Of the bui lding, and the timely application
Of few pals of water suppressed the flames,
but not before the entire building was
enveloped in smoke and matters had begun
to look quite like a bad FIRE. The
steamers came on the grounds prepared for
any emergency, but as their services did not
seem to be required, after playing little
on the building the engines returned to their
quarters. Had this fire occurred later
in the evening serious confagration might
have happened, as the building is situated
in a locality where the flames would have
spread and large amount of property
would undoubtedly have been DESTROYED.
Judging from the part of the building the
fire was first discovered in leaves a strong
inference that the fire was the work of de-
sign. To say the least the surroundings
had very suspicious look. Mr. Mentinks
stock received but little damage.

long covered wagon across the bridge and
up Main street as far as Third street, when
they turned and ran around the block and
aga into Main street by way of I'd. AT
the corner of Second and Main streets they
collided with farmers wagon, and the
team was fortunately stopped without in

standing along the streets at the time of

Cured. A most remarkable circumstance,
