LABOR DAY.

Monday was an unusually lively day
in our city, it being Labor day, and it
was for the first time properly observed
here. The weather was all that could be
desired and from dawn until late in the
forenoon you could stand at one end of
Main street and look to the other and see
the interest taken in lab0r's holiday by
the way flags and bunting were hung
out, decorating the street for the 0cca-
sion. Likewise did the people not stay to
home but came out to see and be with
them that earn their daily bread. Short
ly after one o'clock crowds began to
assemble in different parts which by no
means consisted Of only our own people,
for there was handsome number of
outsiders who came here to spend the day
-anXiOusly waiting for the parade.
The parade was formed at Fourth and
Main streets headed by the Sinnissippi
band and followed by the Brewer Work
mems Union, No. 9, Branch No. 4, officers
in carriage and the WatertOwn Federal
Labor Union, No 1894.
The line Of march was as follows: East
from Fourth and Main streets to Sixth
street, north on North Sixth street to
Cady street, west on Cady and West
Cady streets to North Church street,
south on North Church street to West
Main street, east on West Main and
Main streets to Fourth street, south on
Fourth street to Turner Opera house.
At the conclusion of the parade the
the Grafton of the day was delivered by
Hon. Charles H. Gardner at Turner Opera
house. He was introduced by the presi-
dent of this great labor organization
who stated in a short address that
Frank j. Weber, IF Milwaukee, who
had been engaged to deliver the address,
was unable to come, and Mr.. Gard-
ner had only few moments to make
preparation. Mr.. Gardner delivered
very interesting and thoughtful adj
dress, bringing out particularly the close
relationship between capitol and labor,
one being unable to get along without
the other; but that they must work hand
in hand.
The days program was wound up with
social hop at the above named hall in
the evening, which was enjoyed by
large crowd Of labOrers and their
friends. The music was furnished by
the city orchestra.
Thus the day came to an end, but the
working man will not forget it and will
be on hand next year for another good
time. 1t might be well to say that the
local labor organization was organized
here only few months ago and has al
ready 100 members. What will be the
membership next year? One only knows,
but we trust it will be several times 100.

Stone for Congress.

{ At a recent chance meeting of quite a
number of prominent Republicans of the
state, the matter of congressional possi-
bllities was the subject of cOnyersa-
tion. No particular reference was
made to a slated list, but the talk
was rather an individual expression
OF opinion as to men who would make
desirable candidates resident in the re-
spective districts. While the subject of
the second district possibilities was
under consideration, the writer hereof
was moved to note particularly the COM
ments made, especially as there were
several representatives from the northern
counties of this district present whose
preference were unknown. gentle
n an from Marquette, we believe, whose
confident expressions seemed to indicate
that he spoke from thorough know
ledge OF what he was talking about, ex-
pressed the unchallenged opinion that of
all the congressional possibilities that a
thorough canvass of the district would
suggest, that Lieutenant-G Governor Jesse
Stone seemed to combine in his person
more elements of success both as a can
didate and as useful member of con-
gress than either of the others whose
names had been mentioned, and in this
opinion leading Republicans through
out the district whom he has met casual
ly cOncurred. The proposition was thor
Oughly discussed and several present
went so far in their approval of Mr.:
Stones proposed cOndidacy as to say
that they should write to him asking
permission to use his name as a candi-
date for member of congress in the
second district. AS the subject matter
OF this informal talk is a subject of local
interest and relates especially to one of
Watertown's most prominent citizens,
we are sure it will be welcome as news
item thai may be but the shadow of
things hoped for. We simply know that
during the session of winter Governor
Stones name was favOrably mentioned
for the position great many times
when the same subject was being inform
ally considered by leading men from all
parts of the state.

New Law Office.

Attorney Arthur Mulberger has opened
up Offices at PIP Main street where he
will practice his chosen profession.
The above professional notice is worthy
of more than a passing comment as it
concerns one of Watertown's most pro-
missing young men. A graduate of
Sacred Heart College and Of the State
University with three years. course at
Harvard and the Northwestern Law
School, Mr.. Mulberger has laid a sure
foundation for future success in his
chosen profession, the law. He has
already practiced in Chicago where he'has
won favorable mention for legal skill
and natural aptitude in profession. We
predict continued success and career
of usefulness in the home city.

BIG FIRE AT JEFFERSON.
The Northwestern Manufacturing COMPANY S
Plant, Episcopal Church and Numerous Resi-
dences Destroyed or Injured by Fire
Damage Nearly 100000.

Shortly after II o'clock Thursday after
noon tire broke out in the chair factory at
Jefferson, known as the Northwestern
Manufacturing company, and the whole
city was in danger for some time, owing
TO heavy gale OF wind from the south
west. Sparks were carried for blocks
and soon the Episcopal church was in
flames and many residences, barns, etc.
were set on fire. At one time the town
hall had fairly started to burn but was
saved by the heroic efforts of the firemen
and people. Houses some six and seven
blocks distant were even reached and be-
cause there was not sufficient apparatus,
people put these minor fires out with
pals of water.
The fire started in the steam room of
the the above named manufacturing
plant and soon the whole buirsAalg was
mass OF flames and in only short time
it lay in ruins, The loss is estimated at
$4,000 to $4,000 with $9,500 insurance.
The Episcopal church was also laid in
ruins In less time than it takes to tell
it with loss of about $1,000 to $1,000
and no insurance.
With the minor fires the loss will un-
doubtedly reach $4,000, and had it not
been for the quieting Of the wind and
the good work Of everybody, Jefferson
would have suffered. the most serious
fire it has ever experienced.
Aid was asked from neigh0Oring towns
and an engine and hose wagon from this
city, engine and hose cart from Johnson
Creek, engine and hose wagon from Fort
Atkinson and another from GAINESVILLE
made lmmdlate response. The ia lesyille
apparatus was net used as the fire was
then under control. The fire was at
one time fierce and for blocks people car
ried out the furniture over the lawn
about the court house and stood there
full of fear, expecting every moment
that their homes would be destroyed.
Before the outsiders left they were
treated to sandwiches and other refresh
ments, and judging from the way they
partook of them one could well see that
they had worked hard. The thankful
ness Of the Jefferson people was CRATE
fully expressed in this token toward the
boys who had so quickly and willingly
responded to their call for help.
