Subcommittee of Capitol Water Commission Files Extensive
Report With Governor, Giving Optimistic Outlook for the
Establishment of Great New Supply Of COd Pme Sparkling
Mountain Water for the City Of Salem

The subcommittee to investigate
the question OF mountain water sup.
ply for Salem has filed a report with
Governor George Il. Chamberlain.
chairman OF the Capital Water Com
mlttee, In which they present certain
features in connection with both the
Brieitenbush and the Little North
Fork OF the Santlam as sources Of
water supply. The complete report
is as follows:
To the Honorable George E. Cham
berlain. Chairman OF the General
Committee on Water Supply for
the City OF Salem and the State In
stltutions:
Dear Sir:
The subcommittee on source OF sup
ply and estimated cost respectfully
report as follows:
We have made a preliminary ex-
animation OF the several sources
from which II has been supposed
supply OF mountain wa,er could be
obtained and find that only two OF
them are practical; the supply from
the others being insufficient.
One source OF supply would be the

distance from Salem 20 Mehama by

Zipler is Optimistic.

In an interview published at Madison
with H. H. Zigler, president Of the
Cincinnati Construction Co., who is
promoting the interurban line between
Madison and GAINESVILLE, Mr. Zigler
spoke earnestly and enthusiastically
about the line, predicting that it will
be doing business up as far as Slough
ton by the middle of the summer, and
that ground will be broken just as soon
as the weather permits.
Everything is progressing satisfac-
torily, but, of course, many things can
happen in the interurban business.
Ground will be broken just as quickly
as the weather permits outside work.
Part of the present plan of the compa-
ny is to construct summer hotels at
both Lake Kegonsa and Lake Waubesa
and establish a line of boats on these
two lakes to connect with homes around
the lake. Plans for these two hotels
and their possible location have already
been picked out and they will he con-
.structed this coming summer.

AMENDING the primary election law
is like using saltpetre on spoiled pork
It may prevent the law from becoming
more unpopular, but it will not popu-
larize it. 1t is a bad law, fruitful of
bad results, one out of joint with our
system Of government and policy of
nominating and electing public officers.
There is but one way to amend the pri-
mary election law that will produce re-
suits satisfactory to the voters of Wis
consin and that is by an absolute repeal
of every section, line and word. This
law is one of the most useless, most
foolish, most cumbersome, burdensome,
i'll advised and uncalled for pieces of
legislation ever devised by the widest
theorist who ever lent his brain to the
work of thinking up law If Bob La
Toilette he'd studied a thousand years
to get up a law of no earthly value to
anybody except professional politicians
ne could not have succeeded better than
when he incubated his primary election
measure. Such a law can never be i'm
proved by amendment. Changing a
cancer into tumor does not help the
patient very much. Madisonian.

MEETING OF FREMONTERs.
A Good Suggestion Which Will Meet
Approval of All Old FremOnters.

Why wouldn't it be fine thing for
the Fremont voters of 1856, and those
who as youngsters were large enough
to march and shout for Fremont and
'Jessie, too, +" in the adjoining counties
of Walworth, Rock, Waukesha and
Jefferson, to meet in convention some
time next summer or autumn, talk over
that first battle of the Republican party
and have general good time? Why?
There is no good reason why they should
not; without doubt there are in the four
counties named at least thousand of
such Fremonters. With the hearty
cooperation of the press it can be made
most striking and happy event of the
year. Whitewater Register.

ACCORDING to the official record at
the state fish and game warden's office,
{, 1858 deer were transported in Wiscon-
sin the past season. This is 712 more
than in 1907, when the number was
5, 556. These figures do not give the
total number killed, as it is impossible
to get reliable information on that.
Hundreds of deer were slain and eaten
in camp, while large number were
transported by wagon to neighboring
towns. Warden Stone estimates that
at least II 900 were killed. Last year
the figures were about 10, 900.

A PATRIOT has come forward in the
Vermont legislature with a bill intended
to guard newspapers against "fakers. "
1t makes the giving of false news to
any newspaper with the intent to de-
ceive punishable by fines ranging from
SIS to $50 for each offense. Eve hope
that the Vermont lawmakers will lose
no time in making the bill statute,
