Platform to Include a Declare.
ton Against Industrial
Combines
And in Favor of the Election of
Senator's by Vote of the
People.
It Is Also Given Out Definitely
That Alger Is in 1t to
the End.

DETROIT, Mich. June Ex-Governor
Pingree has given out a public state
ment to the effect that he had combined
with Secretary Alger in the interest Of
Alger's senatorial candidacy. General
Alger will not withdraw under n cir
cumstances, nor will he spend any
money in the campaign. The platform
Of their campaign will include the
feature of opposition to trusts and a
declaration in favor of senatorial cleo
tons by a popular vote. The alliance
was made at a conference at which sew
eral of the Pingree state leaders and the
general and the governor were present.
Said the governors:
Il have avoided committing myself
heretofore. because l wanted oppor.
tunlty TO talk with the general first.
But all along, General Alger has been
my personal choice for senator. | wired
him at Petoskey. asking him if | could
see him in detroit on his way back to
Washington. In reply he arranged to
meet me here. Of course l can't speak
for my friends, but those l have talked
with are Alger men beyond all ques.
ton. They cannot support Senator Nc
MILAN. They certainly canno be
classed as friends of mine if they do.
They cannot forget eight years of polit.
ical history in a day nor can they live
with the representatives Of 'judicious
combinations and unequal taxation,
and pretend at the same time to be
friends to equal and just taxation and
foes to trusts.
General Alger is in the race and to
stay to end" said the governor. land
you can say in the strongest English
you can write, ! am with him heartily
and ! propose to do all l can personally
and with my friends, to aid his candi-
dacy. As General Alger put it to me,
he will be q candidate if he has assur.
for no more than vote in the legis.
lature. Alger is on the right side Of
the two great questions OF the day. l
said to him that ! could not personally
support q man who would not declare
himself on the right side Of those two
public questions. The two questions on
which l wanted to know his position
are those Of trusts and the election of
United States senators by direct vote of
the people.
Il wish TO say that the general is alb
solutely sound on both these questions.
General Alger believes firmly that
United States senators should be elected
by direct vote of the people,"

Long FIGHT D
Wisconsin Supreme Court Decides . Mat
ter Of Forty-hvc Ycars standing.

W ~ S"tusu
CHICAGO. June PA special to The
Chronicle from Milwaukee says:
After years Of fighting the Wiscon-
sin supreme court has definitely Knocked
but the Efforts Of interested farmers to
have Muskec. lake drained and put in
their possession some 30, 900 acres Of re-
claimed land.
Muskego lake is located about 90
miles southwest of Milwaukee and used
to be a favorite resort for sportsmen,
pleasure resorters and picnic parties.
There is high land on one side Of the
lake and low swamp on the other.
The high land owners wish to retain
the lake and the low land men wish it
drained. and for IS years they have
been carrying on the fight. which has
just been finally decided. In 1887. the
men who favored drainage succeeded
in having a joint committee appointed
by the circuit court Of Racine and
Waukesha counties. 1t spent about
. 10000. and lowered the lake depth
about five feet without improving the
swamp land.
In 1891 the legislature decreed that
the lake was a menace to public health
and authorized James Reynolds to
drain it.
When the contractors began the work
OF drainage. its dredges were fred or
blown up with dynamite. dams torn
down and the work constantly inter.
fered with, but in spite Of them the
state land commissioners issued patents
for the land in question in 1895. The
work has been going on ever since. and
the company will now have to fill up
Ito bitches and drains and erect a dam
ut the mouth Of the lake.
