Council Getting Busy.

AT the regular meeting of the common
council Tuesday evening, the resolution
granting license for a saloon at the
northwest corner of West Main and
North Washington streets was recon-
sidered and referred back to the license
committee; and an ordinance introduced
to close the saloons in the city at IL
o'clock p. m. and keep them closed until
8 o'clock a. m. The better class of sa-
loon keepers are in favor of closing their
saloons at the hour named and many
would be glad to close their places of
business Sunday forenoons, so that thew
could attend divine services with their
families, but do not wish TO do so unless
all saloons are closed, both front door
and back, dnring the hours of church
services and also obeying the state laws
and municipal regulations relative to
the liquor business. As the writer has
maintained, it is the disreputable saloon
keepers who have brought odium upon
the business, the classes who violate the
moral, civil and divine law in their anx-
iety to get money and the saloon keep
ers association in this city could raise
the standard of their business by driv NO
out of the business the class of men who
bring it into disreDute

The LedVen is Working.

To the Editor Of the Leader:
Alderman Humphrey deserves the
thanks of all decent citizens for in :
Producing "an ordinance regulating sa-
looms in the city of Watertown." 1t is
to be regretted, however. that in the
proceedings of the common council as
published in the Daily Times, the full
text of the ordinance was not given, es-
pecially since this ordinance is of such
vital interest to every home in the city.
Nor did the public learn how, on the
motion of Alderman Kehr, ho, natural
ly. represents the liquor in -ests in the
council, the ordinance was rst tabled
by a vote of 8 to 5. Why " rent the
names of those who tried to SO elch the
ordinance published? 1t v IS only
| through the insistence Of Alderman
Humphrey that the ordinance was f.
nally taken off the table and read first
| and second time and referred to the
committees on license and judiciary.
Would the Leader. since the other two
papers don't seem to have the courage to
say word, publish Alderman Humph-
rey's ordinance in full, and also the
names of the city fathers who tried to
have it thrown in the waste basket?
r. d.
The ordinance, which is quite long,
Will be published next week.
The vote to lay the ordinance on the
table was as follows:
Aye-Aldermen Feisst, Hahn, Kalina,
klemann, Nienow, Russell, Scheblak,
Kehr
Nay-Aldermen Humphrey, Kohn, Ry-
an, TetzIaff, Werner.
The vote to take the ordinance fro
the table and put the same on its pas
sage was as follows:
Aye-Aldermen Feisst, Hahn, Humph-
rey, Kalina, Klemann, Kohn, Nienow,
Russell, Ryan, Tetzlaff.
Nay-Aldermen Kehr, Scheblak.
Absent-Aldermen Lutoysky, Werner.

OUTLOOK NOT BRIGHT.

IF the same disahection exists IN
the Republican party all over the
country as it does in this state,
there is no doubt in the minds OF
those who are watching events and
keeping posted as to the prevailing
political sentiment, the democrats
will sweep the country from the
Atlantic to the Pacific coasts and
from the Canadian line to the Cult
of Mexico. Hundreds of thousands
of republicans have become thor
oughly Disguised with the factlonal
fight in their party. There IS no
unity of sentiment, and the condi-
tons existing have destroyed party
loyalty, for there is nothing left to
command loyalty. The writer was
a visitor recently in Rock county,
which has, from the organization OF
the republican party, been rock
ribbed in its fidelity to its princi-
pies and traditions. In converse
ton with many who had been iden-
titled with that party, some proml-
nently, he found that dissatisfac-
ton existed generally, and many
did not hesitate to say frankly, that
it was their opinion a change was
absolutely necessary for the saliva
ton of the country which is being
rushed on to ruin by men who, in
spired by selhshness, were using
the party name to further their
own interest, regardless OF the
welfare of the people.

Save the Girls from Ruin.

The common council should at an
early date, pass an ordinance making
it the duty of the police to order all
young girls found lettering on the
streets and hanging around stall saloons
after ten o'clock p. NJ, and if they per-
slst, to arrest them as common street
walkers. The arrest Of a few might
have beneficial effect and possibly
save many from ruin. During the past
year, it reports are to be credited; quite
a number of girls, some of very tender
age, have gone the downward path
which terminates in disgrace. and if the
parents will not take sufficient interest
In their daughters to protect them, it is
the duty of the city authorities to do so
and it cannot be done too quickly.

REFORM EXPENSIVE

The editor of the Leader is a
middle of the road republican,
neither a socialistic progressive
nor a reactionary conservative. The
people and corporations have rights
and neither should be robbed by
conhscatory laws, whether it be by
tariff or taxation to keep an army
of useless office holders in lucra-
tive positions. In this state a large
sum could be saved annually by
dispensing with the services of at
least half of the commissions
boards and subordinates in every
department of the state govern
ment. Taxes would thereby be re-
duced and the people given an ad-
ministration free from the annoy
ances which are exceedingly pro-
voking. There has been too much
demagoguary, and majority OF
the voters have listened to the So
called reforms and been most out
rageously deceived. 1t is time that
there was a change, state expendi-
lures reduced and taxes scaled
down at least a half-a hiking back
to the days before we had reform.

THOUGHTS BY THE WAY.

A Milwaukee Judge has sued
Mayor Seidel of that city, for SLAM
der demanding $4,000 damages.
He must have an exalted opinion of
himself and Of the financial ability
the mayor to pay that sum in case
Judgment should be rendered
against him. The Judge is too SEN
sitive and should not have noticed
the mouthings of the mayor, for
with certain politicians, it is the
practice to abuse and denounce
men who do not fall down and wor-
ship them.

been idle and a good program is now
being arranged. An unusually strong

has been some suggestion Of baby
show that the women folks are inter

bies in the Lake Region.
