Appleton Crescent, Dem. Men who be-
lieye in democracy should hesitate long
are attaching themselves to the p0liti-
cal fortunes of a politician likeGovernor
LaFOllefte. He is "Outside the pale of
every healthy political organization, y
and is engaged in work commenced
eight or ten years ago to build polite
al organization of which he would con-
stltute himself head, front and center.
he is essentially federalistic in all his
ideas, and would if he had the power
consign to bastiles all whodares to differ
with him. His advocacy of primary
election system is to place his Madison
regency in control OF wires to reach and
direct every neighbOrhOod in the state.
NO, there is nothing democratic about
him.
The main trouble with Governor La
Toilette is that he does not appreciate
his position. The people elected him to
execute the laws passed by the legisla-
ture; and he at once set about telling the
legislature what it should do and what it
should not, thus assuming to be dictator
to his fellow servants Of the people,
position to which he had not been elected.
To use slang but expressive phrase, he
got in the wrong box. The constitution
and laws plainly define his position and
perogatiye, and the party leaders and
legislators were right in resenting any
attempts he made to 0yerstPp the limits.
Lodi Valley News.
Governor La Toilette and his bench
men did not consult with the party on the
Stevens bill. On the contrary, the bill
was framed in secret, trust upon the
assembly and forced through that body
by brute strength without an oppor-
tunlty being given for amendment or
discussion. The Stevens bill was not
Republican measure; 1t was a La Fol-
lette measure pure and simple, lacking
even the virtue of bearing the governors
name. The defeat of the Stevens bill
was not violation Of the platform Pied
ges; it was the triumph of those pledges.

Governor La Toilette is said to DC get
ting ready to spend four months il

why he should be paid One-third OF

THERE are a great many good repub
iacns in this state, men who are re-
publicans from principle and whose
motives cannot be successfully ques-
toned, who believe that the renomina-
ton of Governor La Toilette would be
suicided to the party. There are oil
those a considerable number who
would prefer the election of demo
crat even to that of the governor, argu-
ing logically that though the democrats
might make mistakes sometimes they
would not be selfshly obstinate all the
time.

the railway companies have been fairer
than the average of individuals.
All through the long and numerous

before committees having the several

against increased railroad taxation
