THE great struggle has begun
between the power of wealth on the
one hand and the endangered rights
Of the people on the other, and it is
Time that the people woke up to the
situation. In no part of the country
is the fight on stronger than in the
state Of Wisconsin. The question
here il direct one between the
public service corporations and the
state. 1t behooves the voters to stand
by their farm, homes and tiresideS, to
do their greatest duty on election day.
All the country is looking to Wiscon-
sin, the state which bore the banner
two years ago by rolling up the largest
majority for Mckinley Of any state in
the union, to do her duty again. Dc
1T periodically. Remember the loss
OF the state now to the Democrats
may mean that two years from now it
will be impossible to swing it back
INTO line for those policies which have
always proven the vanguard of pro
greSS.

solution," said the senator in speaking
Of the trust problem. Laws that
states make are broken by those
corporations aS fast az they break
state lines, but when Uncle Sam says
halt they all feel that they had better
stop. A corporation has no body to
be kicked and 10 soul to be damned,
and consequently are hard to reach.
Several states in the union are organic
ing corporations which go out and
prey upon the people Of other states,
prohibiting them from operating in
their own boundaries. Connecticut
has done this with banking corpora
tionS and Pennsylvania has done the
same thing. Then the other states
frame laws to keep these corporations
out. What does it ali mean? 1t
means this: They are all striking at
foreign corporations, striking down
interstate trade. With "A federal law
governing all corporations, insuring
equal terms to all in all states, no
corporation could water its stock;
none would be over capitalized. Then
you could buy stocks and bonds of

JUST as the campaign is drawing to
close it is necessary to remind all
Republican voters that the only
danger now known to Republican
success on November t, is that the
voters may fail to turn out to vote
Failure in this may mean that great
est Of all disasters, the turning into
power of that set of partisanS of
negatiOn which ever hounds the heels
of progress and prosperity. The
voters should tot forget for one
mon ent that this election is not alone
state affair. National affairs are
not seriously involved in the election
Of the congressional nominees Of the
Republican party, because every man,
woman and child in the country
Knows exactly what the Republican
party stands for. National affairs are
seriously involved in the election of
Democratic congressman, for who in
the world really knows exactly what
the Democratic party ever stands for,
except that it is for everything
opposed To RepublicanSm.

He is conservative and has always

was twice elected mayor of Rhine

of that city several years, vas chair
mau of The county board two years,

article. The only two sources from
which it could have emanated are, d

STATEMENTS have been made from
certain very unreliable Democratic
sources to the effect that Hon Herman
Wipperman, Republican candidate
for state senator, and Hon. F. A.
Cady, candidate on the same ticket
for member Of assembly, are not favor
able to the reelection of Senator
Spooner. The stories are absolutely
false and are diSproved by the act of
both men before the Republican con-
yentiOn. While both are strong
supporters of Governor LaFOllette,
nett her has ever opposed Senator
Spooner. Mr. Wipperman favored
the unconditional endorsement OF
SpOoner in the resolutions passed by
the state senatorial convention and
MIR. Cady openly expressed himself in
favor of the reelection of Spooner in
the county convention The Demo-
cratic methods of Misrepresentation
and mud-Slinging which have ever
characterized the party, will be used

The Republicans have one big
advantage in the fact that they have
county tickets in every county, while
the Democrats have allowed their
county ticket to 60 by default in many
counties. Without county ticket In
the field, to get out the party vote, a
party cannot expect to poll much
strength. The Republican organiza
tiOn in this respect is complete.
