Press Comment the Nomination OF
sHuohef.

The Republicans of Wisconsin have
framed strong platform and have
placed strong candidates upon it. Sen
ator Spooner will be the next governor
of the Badger State, and that stanch
and orthodox Lutheran, John {. Koch,
will be lieutenant governor, and all the
other great offices of state will be filed
by Republicans The grand old party
is in fighting trim. and it's generals have
chosen the ground of battle with con-
summate skill. The large German pop
ulatiation of Wisconsin is very thrifty,
and it will regard with suspicion the
Democratic proposition to wipe the
sound and universally acceptable ma
tional bank currency out of existence
by forcing it into untaxed competition
with hordes of wildcat currency issued
by whomsoever is able to buy bank
charter from Democratic administra-
Chicaq0 Inter- ocean.
The Republicans of Wisconsin, in
state convention, nominated eN-Sena-
tor Spooner for governor by acClama-
ton. 1t Is an honor worthlly bestowed,
and it will be woTthily borne. If there
is man in the party who can plant the
standard of victory on the enemy s ram
parts il is John {. Spooner. lie is alert
and aggressive, is good organizer, and
possesses the qualities of leadership in
an eminent degree. With such a man
at the head of the state ticket the
chances of swinging Wisconsin into Its
old and normal place in the Republican
column become immensely reassureG.

The nomination of ex-senator Spoon
er for governor of Wisconsin is certain
" the strongest one which the Repub-
licans OF that state could have made.
He is not only statesman OF national
reputation, who has been power IN
Washington, but he is also leader VINO
has never made an enemy IN his own
state. and commands the respect OF
men of all parties. He is at once a
high minded and a popular candidate,
and will be certain to draw every Re-
publican vote, and to have strong sup
port outside his party. The Demo
cratic canvass in Wisconsin has re-
reived from his nomination tremend-
ous setback.-Nelc York Tribune.
The Republican convention nominal
ed ticket which will carry the state by
majority which may reach beyond
p. 900. 1t is made up OF men who are
in the highest sense strong and repre-
sentative. The platform upon which
these candidates are presented for the
suffrages of the people Is ciean-cut ana

The Republicans of Wisconsin have
made a wise c..oice fer the gubernatorl-
al candidate. Ex-senator Spooner Is
eminently fitted for the high position OF
governor of that state, and, If elected,
as he probably will BE, he will afford a
dicnified contrast to the humorous
mounteban that now occupies that po-
sition. Mr.. Spooner is q wise, conserVa,
