TALK OF BRIBERY
At CAPITAL TOWN
RumOr in Circulation That
Two Legislators Have
Been Approached.
(FrOm Tuesdays Dailyl

The following Dispatch from Madi-
son, which is a new phase in the sena-
torial contest, appeared in last even
ing's issue of the Milwaukee News:
Great excitement was occasioned at
the capitol this afternoon by TIE report
that bribery had been attempted in the
senatorial contest.
= Reports are current that efforts have
been made to secure votes in certain
quarters by the use of money
The stories told are to the effect
that at least two members have been
approached, the reports coming from
men who profess to believe they have
been the object of these alleged atten-
lions.
While the reports lack confirmation
so far as any direct evidence is con-
cerned-they have been the sensation
of the afternoon at the capitol.
1t IS said that the attention of the
legislature will be called To the rum
ors, and that they may be dignifed by
an attempt at investigation.

MODERN WOODNEN
HAS BIG BUSINESS

AS Indicating the continued grow tn
of the Modern Woodmen society, 1T is
interesting to know that for the first
time IN it's history the scciety's re-
ceipts for one month amounted to more
than 81, 900, 900 in the month Of April.
The exact amount received during
the April month, AS reported by Head
Clerk Halves, was $4, 029, 1879. So. This
was for the March assessment remit
ted by the clerks of camps to the head
clerk in the month Of April; but it
also includes remittances for supplies
and some minor miscellaneous remit
tances.
With such an enormous business,
sometime is taken at the read office
in getting the maitland the society s
business is nearly all transacted by
mail-into the proper transacted
Departments for consideration. All
mail is opened, stamped, classified
and dated on the day received in
the mail department and mail carrying
remittances are separated and a record
made of each remittance on a remit
lance card. This record shows the
character Of the remittance, the
amount, number, name of remitter,
etc., and if any question arises in
the future, every single remittance
can be traced.
The reports from the clerks of
camps are sorted numerically by
camp number, dated, and a postal
acknowledgment of receipt, of report
Immediately mailed Over $4,000
pieces of mail are received each
month in the mail department and
this mail is all carefully read, CLASH
fed, and assigned to the various de-
partments fer consideration.

SHOULD GET AFTER
THE DOG PRISONERS
Friends of the Canine Should
Raise a Fund to Trace
Down Such Cases.

Editor Leader The number of
heartIess cases of dog poisoning in
Watertown of late leads me to believe
that dog fanciers of the city should
make a determined effort in tracing
the identity Of the dog prisoners in
this city and an effort should be made
to raise fund by subscription aiming
by friends of the dogs with view of
defrayIng the expense of securing evil
dence against miscreants poisoning
valuable dogs and prosecuting them.
Persons placing poison where dogs
come in contact with 1t are liable to
arrest and dog prisoners are liable to
receive a prison sentence. Conse-
quently the dog owners have the law
on their side aud they should do all in
their power to prevent further acts of
this desplcabIe character. With a
fund of few hundred dollars in the
bank the dog fanciers will be enabled
to take decided stand against the
prisoners of CANNES.

NEW IDEA ADVANCED
IN BRIDGE QUESTION
DIR. WERNER NOW IN FAVOR
OF ABANDONING PLAN.
Scheme is to Improve East Water
Street. Raise Smith Bridge. Cut
Down Main Street and Concord
Avenue Hill and Fill in to BRIDGE
Plan Will Be Recommended.

DR.. F. C. Werner, alderman from
the First ward, has in mind a solution
of the Rough and Ready bridge ques-
ton which, it is said, will be suggest
ed TO the city council with the recon-
mendation of reconsideration of the
plan to rebuild the bridge. The doc
tor was originally of the opinion that
the bridge should be REBUILT but has
changed his mind and now believes
that such an expenditure is a waste
of money.
In brief, the plan of DR.. Werner is
to abandon the idea of rebuilding the
bridge, to make substantial improv
ment to East Water street, raise
the Smith bridge, which the doctor
says, will soon need repair, to the
extent Of about three feet, to cut
down the hills on Concord avenue and
Main street and make a fill between
the hill and the Smith bridge.
1t is understood also that the plan
is meeting with favor by some of the
members of the council, who were
formerly of contrary opinion. 1t is
argued that the distance is but trifle
greater to town via the Main street
route, than it was over the Rough and
Ready bridge. The cost of the pro-
posed new bridge, with the approaches,
will be close to SIS, 900. 1t is argued
that the improvements above enumer-
ated, including the macadamizing of
East Water steet, could be made for
much less than the amount of the new
bridge, besides having start toward
the improvement of the roads
leading from the country, matter
that has been under consideration for
some time and which was one of the
recommendations of the mayor IN his
message to the council. This plan as
suggested is thought to be more FEAST
BILE for the reason that it is the plan
next year to pave Main street as far
as the Hospital. which will require a
lowering of the grade of Main street
in that locality and both improvements
could be made at the same time.
A special meeting of the city coun-
Gil has been called for this evening to
consider matters N relation to the
proposed raising of the Rough and
Ready dam and it is barely possible
that the bridge question may also
come up.

WISCONSIN CROPS
ARE PROMISING
Badger State Will Be More
Fortunate Than Some
Near BY.

While Wisconsin people may not be
able to revel IN the delights on home
grown "garden sass" quite as early
as some of the people farther south
yet in many respects they have an adj
vantage especially in that when they
SOW they have an assurance that they
may reap.
From Illinois and Indiana, and even
from Ohio, there come reports of
serious injury done to early planted
crops, such as gardenstuffs and spring
grains, by the late cold weather
conditions that have prevailed. The
seeds have rotted in the ground and
replanting has been necessary quite
generally and as consequence the
markets cannot be supplied with the
early vegetables until fully month
later than usual.
From Wisconsin points there comes
no reports of rottlng seed except it be
in low cold soils, where the most
favorable conditions OF warmth and
dryness are essential to termination
In Jefferson Co. the early soWn grains
and garden seeds have all terminated
nicely and are we'll rutted and ready
for rapid growth when the warm
weather does come.

East Water Street.

Street Commissioner Gustav Chaser
objects to the statement that "only a
few fills of dirt and crushed stone
were made on East Water street. -
The item was intended in no way as a
reflection upon our efficient street
commissioner. but merely calling
attention to the clamor among the
farmers for a better street leading
into the city. Mr.. Chaser informs
The Leader that instead of making a
few filings here and there, about z8C
loads of crushed stone were used,
covering a distance of about 800 feet.
He states that the work is not COM
pleted for the reason that he was
called away from the work to perform
duties elsewhere, but adds that it is
the intention to resume the improve
ment of East Water street in the
course of a few days. Many are
ANXIOUS to see the street improved,
particularly because that country
travel is forced that way, owing to
the closing to traffic via the Rough anC
Ready bridge. Many will rejoice t.
learn that the suspension of the work
is only temporary and that the i'm
provement to the street will soon g(
merrily on.

JOSS is a Wonder.

A recent issue of Chicago paper
has the following to say of former
well known Juneau boy, Addle Joss
Joss is a wonder and If Cleveland only
had two more of him they could begin
spending the money of the world S
championship series now, that is, of
course, with Charley Murphy's pre-
mission. The Cubs might object.
But there is only one Joss on the
Cleveland team and he can't pitch
every day. The Sox have three or
four of his calibre and they can begin
rapid firing on the American League
target whenever they get in danger.
But Cleveland shoots its big gun and
then has to wait three or four days
for it to cool off.
