THE State Legislature has just pass
ed law creating "A Wisconsin State
Teachers Agency which provides that
all public school teachers IN the state,
by paying membership fee of two dol
lars TO the Commissioner of Labor and
Industrial Statistics, may avail them
selves of the services of this bureau in
their efforts to secure positions in any
of the public schools of the state free
from any other charges whatsoever.
The bill has proved most popular one
with school officers in the state and es-
pecially with teachers who feel they
have been imposed upon by private
agencies which not only make a charge
of a membership fee, but also five per
cent of years salary for securing a
situation. This five per cent of year S
salary will not he charged by the state.
School officers who desire to secure
teachers for the coming year, and teach
ers who desire situations, should write
the Commissioner Of Labor and Indust-
rial Statistics, Madison. Wis, making
their wants known Teachers should en-
close two dollars, membership fee. with
their application.

If the Japanese wish to ''retaliate
commercially" on America for the San
Francisco outrages, they certainly have
that privilege. For instance, they can
quit selling Us that fragile stuff that
passes for japanese ware. We can make
Just as good japanese ware Of our own.
If, however they should injure Ameri-
can trade N will have the effect they
desire far more quickly than will hostil-
tiles of war-lke nature. There still
are two other views: One, that Ameri-
ca can get along better without Japan
than Japan can without America. An
other is, good licking would do Japan
more good than harm.

THIS week, it is alleged, will be the
last Of the Wisconsin legislative session
of 1907. The record is broken. This ses-
sion will have been the longest in the
history of the state of Wisconsin. More
bills have been introduced, but, thank
heaven, more bills have been killed
than ever before The bills which will
have passed and signed will not equal
the number of former sessions, it
seems. Most likely, as in the past, the
closing week will see lot of poor bills
passed and and lot of good bills killed.

MIDNIGHT FIRE

Blaze-No Damage

At midnight Wednesday fire was
discovered In the boiler room of the
Paepcke-Leicht Lumber Company's
plant on the levee in the southern
part of the city. The alarm was sent
in and all companies of the fire de-
partment responded. The fire was
put out IN a very few minutes and
comparatively no damage was done.
How the fire originated is a mys-
terry The plant has been shut down
for nearly two months. and the fire
boxes have been cold for that length
of time. The watchnlan says that he
saw no one around the plant during
the night and no clew to the incen-
diary could be found On his trip
through the mill before the fire was
discovered, everything was alright as
far as his observations went.
