Wdtert0Wn for BeggS

Mayor Mulberger, in an interview
at Milwaukee Sunday, spoke as fol-
lows:
Watertuwn is for John l. Beggs
in his contest with other companies
who are after franchises in the terri
tory which Mr.. Beggs is developing, -
said Mayor Arthur Mulberger in the
Plankinton. ''There is quite a fight
on up in Dodge county between the
Beggs company and others which are
trying to get franchises to build lines
through the county. In these fights,
Watertown will certainly stand with
Mr.. Beggs.
"The plans of the Begg's company
will be of great benefit to the city,
as under them Watertown will be a
junction point for the different lines
which will eventually radiate from
there est, west, north and south.
The extension of the line from Ocono
mowoc to Watertown has been of di
rect benefit to our city. At present
we have sort of near city service
as the interurban car lays over there
an hour and during that time it is run
back and forth on the city tracks at
regular intervals enabling our people
during that time, to travel back and
forth through the city. The difficulty
with that arrangement is that people
are not certain in regard to the time
and they are not certain that when
they wish to make a train Oh either
road, fur instance, that they can do
SO.
However, l believe that in time,
the company will find that it will pay
to put on city service and I teel GER
tain that when they do, it will be
found to pay good returns. The pres
ent city service is in the nature of an
experiment but hardly shows what
would be the returns for a steady SER
vice on account of the difficulties met
with. However, we are pleased to
have the interurban service and hope
the city will soon be the center for a
great interurban service reaching a
large part of the southern and eastern
part of the state.

Postal Savings Bank

There has been demand upon the
part of many we'll meaning people for
the enactment of law by congress,
estab, fishing postal saving banks,
throughout the country at every money
order selling post office. While the
theory may be right in the abstract,
there are many aud vital objections to
the bill drafted by the Postmaster,
General, which has already been intro
duced IN congress and liable to become
law unless strong protest goes up
from the people. In the first. place, the
spirit of the proposed law establishes a
dangerous precedent in the centraliza-
tiCn of power in the general govern
ment, especially the money power.
Then it should not be forgotten, that
such law would interfere to a damag-
ing extent, with private business, in
which millions of dollars are interested
for the transaction of monetary affairs.
The men engaged in legitimate banking
enterprises are entitled to protection
and it is decidedly wrong for the gov
ernment to impair the business they
nave Iabored years to build up. All
must ADMIT, who have given the mat
ter thought, that it is extremely dam
gerous to concentrate too much power
In government, much more so In a
republican form of government like
our own.
One of the provisions of the pro,
posed law permits deposits to the ex-
tent of $1,000 of each. individual, which
escapes taxation and cannot be reached
by any process Of law. to satisfy the
debts or obligations of the depositor ;
and a family uf several members
conld have large sum on deposit and
laugh at tax gatherers and creditors.
There is another feature of the pro-
posed law, which makes it obligatory
upon the part of postmasters to de-
poslt the money received ON deposit In
national banks, who are to pay inter-
est at the rate of two and half per
cent, but before receiving the money,
the bank must purchase and deposit
at Washington, gilt edged bonds,
requirement with which no national
bank would comply, to receive the
deposits. The law would take out of
circulation in each locality, large
sums of money and would subserve no
good end and should be defeated.

Miss Smith Sings

The fifth Luening concert was given
Saturday evening at the old conserva-
tory hall in Milwaukee, at which only
the works of native music writer's
were rendered by Eugene Luening and
Miss Anna Smith of this city. There
was good sized audience, which iu-
variably responded rs each number
was rendered. Miss Smith (wItn ac-
compartments played by Mr.. Luening)
rendered in a most effective and
pleasing manner: "Daphne's Love
Song" by Ronald, a Japanese Ameri-
can lullaby On the German theme,
"Ruck nur zu. ruck nur zu," by D.
Koven, "The Bird and Rose' by
Horreck and "DolIy's Cradle Song
by Luening. Miss Smith has sweet,
sympathetic voice, which she keeps
we'll within its register, and always
leaves good impression by her
charming manner.

Rejoice and be Glad

Nineteen hundred years ago, there
was born in faraway Judea. a child
whose life was to leave its impress
for good upon the world for all time.
He was horn in a manager, there being
no room for him in the inn, and at his
advent, an angel and a multitude of
the heavenly host praised God. saying !:
"Glory tn God in the highest and on
earth, peace, good will toward men. !"
The rich, proud and powerful were not
among those who called upon the
mother, to see the wonderful child,
only a few poor shepherds. His advent
was not heralded by the populace,
only by those who were looking for
his coming. as is the case today. In
his wonderful ministry, he demons
trated by love and His mighty works,
that he was the best man that ever
tarried in the flesh, his mission being
to uplift man spiritually and show
him how to obtain full and complete
salvation. The world was not ready
for him, and yet, his name was to fill
the whole esrth-the savior of man.
Next Friday, all over the civilized
world, the anniversary of this coming
will be observed with praise and JOY
BUSINESS. He is the morning star OF
hope to all who are in the material
environment, for there is no othe,
nams whereby we can be Saved except
Christ Jesus.

money from the bank to close the
deal. Like most uneducated persons,
he could not understand having checs,
but wanted the money itself to carry.
In the elevator he was robbed of the
money. He did not make much out
cry, neither did his wife, they were
too stunned. At the police station,
where they reported the loss, every
man on the force was touched at the
pathos of it. They impressed upon
the police reporters the worth of the
aged teamster and his anguish over
the loss. The police reporter of one
paper wrote the story just as it hap
pened. In fifteen minutes after the
noon edition of the paper was on the
streets. the telephone on the city
editors desk began to ring: 'Of
course, you'll start fund for that
man. put me down for S10.' Well,
money poured in without any begging
for it, and in less than three weeks
the amount was raised and the identi-
cal cottage bought. There was no
scheme or graft about this. The

VOLUME XIX
HOdrd'S Dd'rymdn

Among agricultural journals there
is one that every farmer keeping cows
should not neglect to subscribe for.
We refer to Hoard's Dairyman. 1t is
a journal that is broad in its scope,
being unlike any other agricultural
journal in the thorough and practical
MANNER IN which it deals with all
farm problems that concern ths farmer
keeping COWS. This journal has d
lively interest and practical knowledge
of all things abou. the farm which
plainly shows that it's editors are
daily in the farm atmosphere and con-
fronted with the same questions to
solve in the practical handling of a
farm that are before every farmer
handlingl COWS. From reading the
paper we learn that it has its own
dairy farm of 200 acres. that is
stocked with a terd of good dairy
cows, and the whole manag gement of
this farm is directly under the editor
ial supervision. This keeps the edit
ors in touch with farm conditions su
that they know the subjects that the
farmer wants discussed and they know
what they are talking about when
they discuss them. In dozens of ways,
Hoard's Dairyman will appeal to one
as coming closer to farm lite and
farm business than any other journal
we have seen. 1t gets right up close
to you and talks good hard farm sense,
about the soils and crops and how
best to handle them; talks about the
COWS and their breeding, and gives
special attention to feeds and feeding.
1t does not have prejudice for some
one breed, but talks for the dairy cow
wherever she is found; talks about
the barn and its arrange ment, and
in fact gives fund of good sound
practical information On questions of
interest to the farmer who keeps
cows, few or many. Hoards' Dairy
man tells you things you want to
know in a way that Will interest YOU.
We notice it has no fashion plates,
puzzles or cheap stories, it is all busi-
ness. 1t is published at Fort Atkin-
son, Wis, and has stood as the lead
ing dairy authority of the country for
many years. There are many in this
community that will want to take this
journal, so we have secured club
bing rate that enables US to offer
years subscription TO The Leader and
Hoard Dairyman both for $500.
Regular subscription price of Hoard's
Dairyman is $1.00 per year. If you
desire sample copy send for it.

went home and told his father, who
rpon meeting the teacher, proceeded
to chastise him in manner exceed
ingly distasteful to the p dagogue.
who escaped from the ire of the fool
ism parent without suffering great
harm. As the teacher did not ap-
prove of the playfulnessIof the father,
he was about to invoke the law, tor
redress, when the father came to his
senses, made an apology and paid re-
asunable damages. When father
attacks a teacher for doing MS duty,

boy, the cold man" needs the thrash
