The Peoples party, now in conven-
tion in st. Louis. is about as badly
torn up as were the conventions neld
by the other parties, but for differ
ent reason. The trouble in the other
party conventions arose over differ
ences of views on silver. The Popu-
lists are in agreement on the financial
question but divided in sentiment as
to the necessity of accepting and en-
dorsing the candidates on the Demo
cratic ticket. A strong element in
the convention are urging the neces-
sity OF nomin ating a new ticket with
men in accord with the entire populist
platform. They claim that this is the
only means of preserving their organ
ization as party, an endorsement Of
the Democratic ticket merging the
party into that of the Democracy.
Others, and they are evidently major
ity, insist upon accepting the Chicago
ticket as the only possible means of
defeating Mckinley.

Wisconsin is undoubtedly less
affected by the silver craze than al
most any other western state. 1t is
noted for It's conservatism on the
money question, and it was this
knowledge that caused Senator Villas
and Gen. Bragg to bolt the Chicago
platform. They had in the state
convention which elected them as
delegates secured the passage of anti
silver resolutions. 1t is charged by
the silver democrats of the state that
the state democracy was not truly
represented by these gentlemen and
their friends at Chicago, and they
threaten to make it lively for the old
leaders at the state nominating con-
vention. We believe from some
inquiry that the democrats of Pierce
county favor free coinage, and we are
little curious to see whether they
will enter into a contest with the old
leaders of the party at the next state
convention. 1t is pretty safe to pre-
dict a lively scrap. EX-attorney
General O'Conner and ex-Boss Wall
have cast down the gauntlet TO Villas
and Bragg and declared for Bryan and
free silver. Silverthorn of Wausau is
with them.

| made.
LaFollette drew the first blood in
the race for the gubernatorial nomi-
nation. Washburn county instructed
for him. He seems to be far in the
lead of any of the other candidates
and to be making the best campaign.
This is the situation in a nutshell.
The people are not anxious to chase
theories in this campaign. The
| Tariff situation is condition. The
money question is largely a theory,
| just as was Tariff reform four years
ago. The people followed the theory
| and disaster was the result. They
know that Protection is not theory,
because it brought prosperity i'm
mediately after the greatest civil war
of history and maintained it with
| increasing volume for a generation
after the war.-Chicago, ILL.,, Inter
Ocean, June 20, 1896.
For unadulteratedc cheek the PROPOSE
tiOn of the Milwaukee Journal that
the republicans must endorse Gen.
Bragg, whom it proposes as the
democratic candidate for governor on
u sound money platform, in order to
show their honesty in opposing the
free coinage of silver takes the cake.
| All the republicans are for honest
money. They can not nominate a
man for governor whose position on
| that question is at all doubtful. 1t is
not necessary for the republicans to
| take lessons in finance or on any
other subject from boiling democrats.
| Gen. Bragg may have stumbled onto
the right thing on this single subject,
but he remains n democrat as TO all
others. A republican who will be
right all around will be the next
governor of Wisconsin.
1t is rare indeed that republican
| campaign is on in this state without
the lumbermen presenting a candi-
date for governor. They are clannish
in that respect. 1t may be that they
| are interested. We are reminded Of
this fact in the present contest for the
| governorship by the persistency with
| which the leading lum bermen Of the
state with Sawyer at the head are
pressing Schofie upon the attention
| of republicans. SchOfield is himself a
wealthy lumberman and mill owner.
BY examining the special legislation
enacted for a series of years it will be
| found that it relates largely TO the
numbering interests. No other inter
est so persistently seeks public favors.
Is this the reason it thinks it must
| have a friend in the governor? 1t is
| the very best reason why the governor
should not be from that class, so that
he may i'm an unbiased and impartial
manner deal justly between the citi-
zens of the state and not feel embar-
raised if he deems it his duty to occa-
sionally sit down on their little
schemes. The governor SHOULD pre-
| sent no faction or clique and no special
| interest.
