ist, so that it will legislate out of exis-
tence all of the saloons in the city of
Madison. The prime movers in this
movement to make Madison dry are
residents Of Madison who were prom
inent IN the campaign in April in
which it was attempted to secure a
vote of the citizens of Madison in fav-
or OF the abolition Of saloons in that
city, and IN which success came nearer
browning the efforts of the supporters
Of a dry Madison than the opponents Of
a dry city liked, as there were only
seventy-three votes more in favor of
licenses being granted in Madison than
there were for dry city. The support
ers of the dry movement in Madison
will probably 60 before the legislature
with a five mile zone bill, very similar
to the measure introduced two years
ago, and in favor of this bill they will
introduce statements which they claim
will tend to show that if an absolute
expression had been obtained from the
citizens Of Madison on the wet and
dry question in the April election sa-
looms would have been banished in
Madison.
The liquor interests of the state ex-
pect a battle over bill to make Madi-
son dry, but they claim they are MAX
ing no campaign prior to the legislative
fight on the subject, declaring they are
convinced that no legislature would
ever think of taking SO broad a step
In regard to an individual city in the
state, especially as the same argument
that could be used for making Madi-
son dry could be used in regard to any
city in the state in which large state
school is located. The opponents of
stringent excise legislation say bill
to forbid the sale of liquor in Madison
does not stand on the same basis as a
county option bill, and is not an issue
over which a statewide fight could be
made.
1t can, however, be said that the
Madison citizens who are thoroughly

from the university city are preparing
to make a strong campaign for the dry
zone bill, and it is having some eff
feet on the Dane county political sit
uation. Whether it will have an effect
anywhere else in the state is, however,
doubtful, and the fight on this par
ticular question, even though it be one
of the major excise bills before the
legislature will be more like leg
isative battle than an issue contest
before the people.
The Madison saloonkeepers, however,
are much worried over the possible
prospect that saloons may be banished
from Madison, and they will follow
with great interest all moves which

PRAISE FOR THE MALIGNED
One Man, at Least, Who Has Use for
the Fellow Who Is Fond of
Telling His Troubles.

A middle-aged man wearing glasses
was standing in front Of the Harvard
club talking to three or four mem
berE.

saying that people should not go
around telling their troubles, but |
want to say that it's me for the man
with the troubles every time. When /
meet that sort and he pours out a
stream of hard-luck stories on to me
listen and try to cheer him up, but all
the same feel rather good because
my luck isn't SO hard as his, and /
leave him feeling better than if /
hadn't seen him
ION the other hand, just before
Joined you chaps was inside there
talking to a fellow who was class
mate of mine and after graduating
went to South America. He's been
down there Is years and has cleaned
up million dollars In mines and Is
home now with the money to have a
good time.
He was telling me about all the
things he had bought and was going
to buy, the trips he proposed taking
and all these other things that money
will get, and the splendid health he
had to enjoy everything until / simply
couldn't star it any longer and had to
get out. All could think about while
he was talking was the hard work |
had II 4 every day and the little |
made out of it, and felt If I didn't get
to the open air I'd smother.
Joy is good thing and wish 1t to

helpful talk about the aims and pur.
poses of the meetings, urged punctual-
ity in attendance and asked for hearty
cooperation of home and school. Re-

parent in close touch with the work of
the student in school. He urged par

the work of their children and to visit
the school often and make inquiries
whenever they wished.

In Small Sizes.

OF course-at any time. Undertaking

may have so much knowledge thrust
upon her that her brain reels and her
back aches, yet she cannot play hooky
without mourning the penalties of the
truant law.
A male baby may grow up to be q
philosopher and gentleman, but in
his earlier years he is as unreason-
ing and ill-tempered as hornet. He
will howl without provocation and
kick his own mother In the face while
she is trying to pull a pin out or his
leg.
A girl baby always has chance TO
become a sweet, love BILE. useful wom-
an; but If she Is the only baby, has
foolishly fond parents, and Is unpro-
tected from grandmotherly influences,
the chance is only one in million.
A man hates to play second fiddle to
anything, and most OF all does he rebel
at taking back seat In his own
home; but when baby comes he soon
learns to accept an uncushioned pew
in the extreme rear and to be grateful
for that.

WOULD MAKE MADISON DRY"
Legislature Certain to be Forced to Get
Into Battle Over Question of License
or No License in State Capital Poll
ticians Going on Record NOW.

Ihe excise question will cut a good
deal OF ice in the coming general cleo
tlon. It IS cutting more figure in
Northwestern Wisconsin than it is in
Eastern and Southern Wisconsin. but
there is no question but that in several
OF the legislative campaigns in the
Northwestern part of the state the ex-
case question is quite campaign slo-
gan, and there are several legislative
candidates who are paying more atten-
ton TO the excise question than they
are to the taxation question. One Of
the facts that illustrates this Doinf is
the hard fight which is being made to
defeat Assemblyman Allison in Pepin
county because of his strong stand ia
favor Of excise measures in the last
legislature
MT. Allison was the chairman Of the
committee on excise Of the last assam-
bly,, and as chairman of that commit
tee he showed a remarkable friendship
for more stringent. excise legislation.
What is more, in the northwestern part
OF the state there is strong feeling in
favor OF more stringent excise legisla-
ton, and great many members Of the
coming legislature from that part Of
the country will be very strong in tfSair
demands for legislation on the excise
question of more drastic character
than the present legislature seenea
willing to grant.
One OF the great issues before the
coming legislature will BE an effort 10

SUGGEST THREE PLANS.

Committee on Buildings and GrounCS
Get Open Air School Plans.
The Building and Grounds Commit
tee of the Board of Education held a
meeting at the Office of the City Super
intendent on Monday evening at which
time three plans for the proposed open
air school for Kenosha were presented.
The plans were made by Architects
Hahn and Augustine of Kenosha and
Architect Carsley of Zion City. The
Board has limited the expenditure for
the building to $4,000 and it is thought
that it will be impossible to carry out
all of the plans of the board for so
small an expenditure. The plans will
be presented to the Board for action
at the regular meeting this evening.

miles is the first long one undertaken
