In a circular sent out by ex-Gover-
nor Hoard and six or eight others,
advocating the nomination of Mr..
La Toilette for governor, the reader
is left to draw the inference that Mr.
La Follette's nomination is the only
way to avoid nominating a candidate
who can be ''bought or inundated. }"
When it is remembered that such
men as Major Scofeld, Eugene S. FL
lott, Lieutenant-GOvern Baensch,
Ira Bradford, James G. MOnahan and
ex- Attorney General EstabroOk are
also candidates for the gubernatoria
nomination, it would seem that ex-
Governor Hoard and his friends were
somewhat too enthusiastic, to say
the least, to be really helpful to the
candidacy of Mr. La Toilette. There
will be found to be a great many Re-
publicans in Wisconsin who do not
endorse such electioneering methods,
and who believe that Mr.. LA Toilette
is not the only Republican in the state
who possesses the virtues of honesty
and integrity, as we'll AS the ability to
administer the affairs OF state in such
manner that the state will receive
honor and the Republican party cred
lit thereby .-Beloit Free Press.
