LaFollette

HAD Governor LaFollette
kept his anti-election promise to
try and bring the different ele-
ments of the party together in
the state he would today be the
most popular man in Wisconsin,
but his efforts to dictate all
kinds of legislation, and to name
someone else to succeed John G.
Spooner for the senate is little
more than the ordinary mortal
wishes to swallow. The Cover
nor "has went to far already. ;"
Spooner is too big a man for
ssBob" LaFollette to turn down,
and the party will not stand for
it.

FROM the official organs of the
two factions of the republican
party in this state comes the
command to all who would live
in the political whirlpool that
they must get either con one
side or the other" There is no
mincing of matters, and the
"stalwarts and the ''half-
breeds" are equally as emphatic
in their demands that all mem
bers of the party must show
their colors. Now this arrang
ment is all very nice for people
who feel absolutely that way,
but is is not very satisfactory
for that class of people who are
inclined to recognize some good
and some bad qualities in both of
the organizations. There are
those who like Governor La
F'ollette's position on some mat
tiers, and who at the same time
are for the 'sstalwarts" because
they are opposing some of the
Governors hobbies. For one
The TINES would like to see
harmony in the party, but it be-
gins to look as though if one
wanted peace, that they will have
to fight like all tarnation for it.
So the common herd might just
as we'll make up their minds first
as last TO pick out the crowd that
they believe is the best, and go
to work with them.

While Charles Arnold was sleep
ing the sleep of the quiet one night
recently, some unknown painted the
front of his building brilliant red.
When the genial proprietor of the
"Owl Club got up and looked
around the next morning he Thought
at first that he must have been at
tacted with some disease of the eyes.
He began asking questions, but could
not locate the person who had volan-
tarily decorated his place Of business.
After a good deal of deliberatioa
Charles decided to leave the decora-
tons, and engaged an artist to fix
up around the edges to arrange a
border, etc. And now the front
is complete in the radiance of glow
ing colors aud artistic beauty, and
thd .'Owl Club" presents decided
" unique and attractive appearance.

mod ern and ancient. The
Governor also read a paper he
had prepared giving an account
of Isle Royal, which he had visit
ed with a party with his yacht the
"Stella. After the banquet the
editorial party went to the Opera
House, where they attended the
production of "The Female
Drummer" which was thorough
~ enjoyed.
During the afternoon session
the new officers for the coming
year were elected, and they are
as follows:
President: Ed. L. Peet,
Grants burg.
Vice Presidents: Col. P. IL.
Swift, Rice Lake, and Joseph
Conkel, of West Superior.
Secretary: G. w. Semmes,
Wausau.
Treasurer; George f. Cooper,
Black River Falls.
Executive Committee: j. b.
Jones. Washburn: John G. Chap
pie, Ashland. and A. G. Chase,
Colfax.
The meeting next year will be
held at Wausau perhaps in the
month of September, and after
considerable discussion as to the
advisability of holding winter
meeting the matter was left to
the discretion of the executive
committee.
Sunday was spent on a plea
sure trip on the Steamer Barker
among the Apostle Islands. The
boat left Ashland at nine o'clock
returning at six, and visited
Washburn, Bayfield,, Madeline,
and Wilson Islands, besides en-
circling large number Of other
islands as far out as Presque
Isle. The day was glorious, and
it was one of the finest eXcur-
sions of the year. The editors
were delighted with the Apostles
and thoroughly enjoyed the trip.
Many of them left Ashland Sun
day evening, while others stayed
over to take in the Labor Day
celebration Monday.
On the whole the gathering
was a very pleasant and enjoy
able one, and the editors and
their ladies all felt that Ashland
had entertained them handsome
ly. They were welcomed upon
their arrival by Mayor Burt
Williams in aneat address, which
was responded to by Col. Swift,
of Rice Lake, on behalf of the
Association. Guy M. Burnham,
Of the Ashland Press, and Geo.
F. Cooper, of Black River Falls,
contributed to the program, and
there was also very interesting
address by Henry P. Peterson,
of West Superior.
The new president of the
Association, Ed. L. Peet, is
thoroughly well known to the
fraternity of northern Wiscon-
sin. He is one of the most en-
thusiastic and enterprising
editors in the state, and is alive
to the interests of the frater-
nifty. With the excellent asso-
ciates named for him the affairs
of the Northern Wisconsin Press
Association will be in good
hands, and will continue to
grow and prosper.

The eleventh floor of the
Herman building in Milwaukee
has started at it's work in an
aggressive manner. We will
perhaps never get through hear
ing of that place, as long as Wis
consin has politics. If the work
of the new "bureau" is properly
conducted some very good re-
suits may be accomplished. The
new organization insists on the
reelection of John G.. Spooner to
the United States Senate, and
on that point at least it has the
hearty approval of all people who
have the interests of the state at
heart.
