Spring Water for Senators.

The Legislature is not without its
sense of humor, as shown by the by
play over the resolution by Senator
Ackley asking the superintendent of
public property to furnish the senate
with fresh spring water for drinking
purposes. The superintendent paid
no attention to the resolution, and
when officially asked to explain his
neglect of duty, he called upon the
attorney general for an opinion as to
whether he was duty bound to fur
nish spring water. The attorney gen
eral ruled that the was not. Senator
Ackley is now thoroughly worked up
over the incident and intends to
make a fight on the floor of the SEN
ate for better drinking water. The
senators are enjoying the tilt be-
tween Senator Ackley and Superin-
tendent Essman.
Considerable comment has been
caused by the fact that Insurance
Commissioner Ekern was not invited
to attend the public reception given
by Governor McGovern, for which
about 1000 invitations were issued
Mr.. Ekern was the only state officer
who was not invited. Assemblyman
L. L. Johnson was too busy to attend

Attack on BOXING Bin.

Friends of the Hedding bill to le-
galize ten round no decision boxing
contests in Wisconsin are much
alarmed over the attack made upon
the bill by Chief of Police Jansen,
who said that the title of the bill
ought to be changed to "a school for
plug uglies and brutality" Mr. Jams
sen said the passage of the bill would
make Wisconsin the Mecca of loaf
ers." He declared the game was
bad one, that it ruined the lives OF
most of the young men who indulge
in it, and attracted large crowds OF
undesirable citizens
No action has yet been taken upon
the bill to abolish fraternities or the

sembly committee on education !:

Regulation of Waterpowers.

One of the most important fights
of the legislature will soon be on in
full blast over the Husting bill to
give to the state greater regulation
of the waterpowers. A strong body
is already here to fight the measure.
The bill that the waterpower people
will support is now before the legis-
lature, having been introduced by AS
semblyman Ringle.
The bill has no determinate fran
chise feature such as the Husting
measure, but it proposes methods of
termination of, the franchise which
the waterpower men claim amply pro-
tect the state. 1t is provided that a
franchise shall terminate, whenever
the terms of the franchise are vio-
lated, upon order of the railway COM
mission.
Furthermore, if the waterpower Is
desired for a public use the franchise
may be terminated either by the rail-
road commission or by the act of the
legislature. The waterpower can also
be obtained by the state through con-
demnation proceedings.
The hearings on the waterpower
question will begin this week and
from present indications they will be
fully as interesting as have the hear
ings in previous years on this ques-
ton

agricultural regions of the state.
! Those who are making the fight to
keep the fair in Milwaukee, say that
it is unfair to hold the City of Mil
waukee responsible for the failure of
the fair. They charge that the
grounds are poorly laid out; that the
accommodations are inadequate, and
that the state has not given the event
the study and attention that it must
be given if it is to rank with the
state fair in Minnesota and if it is to
be made success.
Seeks a Short Session.
1t is the quiet hope and ambition OF
Speaker Hull to keep the session of
the legislature short, and he believes
that if the houses work hard that all
business ought to be cleared up early
in May. The general tendency here
is to shorten the sessions of the
legislature. This is fully shown by
the adoption in the assembly of the
Axel Johnson resolution to limit the
sessions in the future to 100 calendar
days, with provision for twenty days
more, and limiting special sessions to
twenty-five days The debate on this
resolution brought out a sharp tilt be-
tween Assemblymen Johnson and
Mahon, the latter opposing the move
to limit the sessions to 100 calendar
days He voted for the resolution
when he saw that it would carry in
order that at later date he may
move for a reconsideration of the
matter.
The report of the Wisconsin legis-
lative fire insurance investigating
committee has been submitted to Gov
ernor McGovern and the legislature.
If the recommendation made by the
committee are carried into effect the
companies will be made more respon-
sible to the state for the rates to be
charged for fire insurance. A radical
reductions of fire losses is sought
through periodical inspections. The
ten most important recommendations
by the committee are as follows:
Risk companies to be made respon-
sible for rates; periodical inspection
of buildings in cities; agents face
state civil service examination; one
agent to a territory; twenty per cent
commission for agents; licensing of
adjusters; cooperation between COM
panies; improved fire prevention
methods; cooperation in state laws
between states; reduction in pre-
miums.

Advice To the LovelOrn
LET YOUR HEART DECIDE
BY Beatrice FnirfaI.

Dear Miss Fairfax;
1 am a girl of 20. About two years
ago I met a young man and from that
time until a month ago 1 loved him,
but he did not return my love in the
way I wanted, so I thought it would be
best to forget him. I am now keeping
company with another young man who
is very serious. Two weeks ago the
first young man wrote and told me he
had found no girl he could love like
me. Dorothy
You must take the one you love
most, but before you make that de-
cision be very fair with yourself. I
know nothing of the merits OF the two
men, but it seems to me the first is
somewhat like the dog in the manger.
He did not seek your love till some
other mans attention made it de-
sirable.
