the title ITO protect the country

The new bill specifically permits
discounts for cash and for quantity
and for allowances and rates cover

YOUR DOLLAR
Arguments in Favor of Not Driving
Your Money Out of Town.

Ii you buy away from home and we
buy away from home and all our
neighbors buy away from home, what
in thunder will become Of our home
market. Ever think about it?
What chance would you get at a
dollar sent out of Watertown?
Buy at Home
Don't run your dollar out of Water
town. Let the poor thing stay
Buy at Home
Don't be mean to your dollar. If
it wants to stay in Watertown let it
stay. Buy at Home.
Think how you'd feel if they ran
you away from home. Your dollar
has feeling, too Buy at Home.
Your dollar will buy more goods
and better goods in Watertown than
anywhere else. Buy at Home.
Seven Reasons Why You Should Buy
At Home.
l. The local merchants and man
ufacturers are Watertown's CONNER
cial institutions, paying taxes in Wa
tertown and support the Watertown
city government
z. Every employe of these places
is resident of Watertown and spends
his wages here.
3. Local merchants sell goods Just
as cheaply, and in buying of them you
save time and freight.
4. They buy of the same manufact-
urers as their large city competitors,
and the goods they offer you are Just
as good and the price is right
5. Your local merchant prides him
self on the prompt service he gives
you. knowing his deliveries are days
ahead of foreign concerns.
6. All things being equal, the home
institution is entitled to your trade,
but when the home institution gives
you better service and saves you time
and money why buy elsewhere
7. 1t is easy to order from home as
all you have to do is to get busy at the
telephone and tell him what you want.
II he doesn't have in stock what you
want he can get it quicker than you
can elsewhere

WASHINGTON LETTER.

Washington, Jan. 29-The report of
the general board of the navy was
made public in two chapters. The
first to appear was a report written
to order. The other, prepared much
earlier, contained the real opinion of
Admiral Dewey and his associates
and Josephus Daniels tried to sup
press it.
The difference between the two re-
ports is that the earliest-in date
outlined a program of naval construc-
ton which the patriotic naval experts
in the board deemed necessarily for
the proper protection of the country.
The other report contains a building
program limited by the amount of
money which Josephus Daniels is will
ing to spend. Admiral Dewey wants
to protect the United States. Josephus
Daniels wants to protect the demo-
cratic party. That is the essential
difference between the two programs:
and Mr. Daniels thought to accomp-
lish his purpose by the simple expedi-
emf of smothering the first and genu-
inc Dewey program
He failed in this purpose, mainly
because knowing people here in Wash
ington insisted that all of the general
boards recommendations = spontane-
Gus and forced-should be made pub
lie. Josephus Daniels was at first in
clined to resort to buster, to assume
sort Of public-be-damned attitude,
the attitude, in fact, which is most
often taken by this administration
and it was only when he perceived
that a congressional inquiry would
bring out the facts that he reluctantly
produced the document and enabled
the public to see the difference be-
tween real and a spurious program
for naval preparedness.
Admiral Dewey's plan is patriotic
Josephus Daniels plan is political

Fcrt Atkinson Wants Base Ball.

Fort Atkinson has made application
to place a team in the Central Wiscon
sin State league for 1916, depending of
course, if the league is continued this
summer. Nothing definite has been
announced at this time, but some ac-
ton will be taken before long, is the
general supposition.
Should the Central league reorgan-
lie the wishes of Fort Atkinson, it
will probably be favorably considered
by all concerned.
