A Statement.

The attention of the editor of the
Leader has been called to a communica-
tion written by our fellow townman.
William G. Cody and published in the
GOodfellOw, Milwaukee, in which he
said, that the Leader would give facts in
regard to the saloon squabble in this
city. The Leader will make no fight
against the saloons that are conducted
in conformity to the state law and city
ordinances. We believe, that when a
man takes out license and runs his
place Of business in respectable man
ner, he Is entitled to the same consider
alton as those engaged in any other bus
ness. The Leader will not endorse or
further any effort to do an injustice to
the man who is living up 20 the demands
of the law and will endeavOr to be fair
and just in dealing with all questions
affecting the public good and the inter
ests of all men, regardless of their en-
ployment and business pursuits.

New Ice House.

One of the recent improvements in the
city, is the erection of a mammoth ice
house by Kohloff and Knispel. 1t is To-
Gated at the foot of Lynn street on the
river bank, is 100x100 feet and % feet
from the foundation to the caves, with a
storage capacity for 1850 tons of ice
Every convenience has been provided for
keeping the ice pure and clean.

tnre was under the supervision of Louis

concrete foundation was put in by Dan
Ryan. The new building takes the place
of the old one which was destroyed by
the tornado lats June and costs approx

University Student Do Damaoe.

The following clipping was taken
from the Jefferson Banner of last
week:
"a bunch of University of Wiscon-
sin students made merry at Jeffer-
son Junction last Saturday evening.
There was about $50 of them who
came down from the north at eight
o'clock and they remained there until
ten o'clock. The damage done to
the property of the Hotel Macmillan
will reach about $500. They broke
the railing, the screen door, and
otherwise destroyed property. Land
lord Blank called for the sheriff, but
before he arrived the gang were on
their way to Madison We are in
clined to believe that in the future
the bunch will receive a warm re-
ception if these tactics are again at
tempted
1t only goes to show, as the writer
has claimed for years, that millions
of dollars have been wasted and is
being wasted on the state university.
Not one in fifty of the students who
attend that institution are there to
learn, unless it may be in tn eagricul-
tural or mechanical departments

Should Give Facts.

The common council at Madison has
adopted resolution calling ON the Hon.
Howard Teasdale chairman of the state
vice commission, for evidence that the
capital city is as immoral as stated in
the commissions published report. The
La Crosse common council has followed
suit and now it is up to Watertown to
do likewise; for In the report published,
it Is stated that there are immoral re-
sorts with nineteen inmates in the city.
1t is gross libel on Watertown and the
vice commission should be forced to give
the facts upon which they based its re-
port.

Common Council.

A meeting Of the common council was
held Tuesday evening and considerable
routine business was transacted. The re-
port of the city treasurer for Dec. showed
balance on hand of $18,629.39. A petit
tiOn was presented asking for the i'm
provement of a part of East Water street;
also one for an electric street lamp on
Washington street and the c. M. & ST.
P. Ry. tracks. Chief FL. G.. Block made a
report showing that $426.56 had BEEN
collected during the past year by the
police department, that the expenses
were $338.33 leaving balance of $188.23
turned into the city treasury. The COM
mittee to whom was referred the visiting
nurse matter was not ready to report
for reason stated by the chairman. The
chairman of the committee on public
buildings reported that satisfactory ar
rangements had been made with the
WatertOwn Gas & Electric company for
wiring the city hall at an expense of
$4,000. Fifteen pairs of rubber boots
are to be purchased for the fire depart
ment and the resignation of John Kehr
was accepted and at the next meeting of
the council, action will be taken to fill
the vacancy.

A Live Insurance AGENT.

Our young friend, Herman P. Bahr, is
acquiring deserved reputation as life
insurance agent and is being recognized
by the company he represents, the
Guardian" of Madison. Last year his
agency wrote nearly 100000 insurance,
his personal work covering $135 GOO. He
has associated with him in the local
agency A. T. Swan and expects to do
better in 1915 than in 1914 and that is
going some. Mr.. Bahr is a most excel
lent, agreeable young man and the writ
er is pleased with his success.
