GIVE The PEOPLE A CHANCE

The Milwaukee Tammany society Of
platform regulators which has set up
in business in opposition TO the regular
republican party of the state. decries
everything as populistic which looks in
the direction of permitting the people
60 have any say in their own govern
Ynent and management, has fresh sup
ply of cause for alarm in the outcome
of the Chicago election. when the follow
ing propositions were decided:
Shall the people own the street rail
ways9 The result showed i42 500 in
favor of ownership and q, o9S against
ownership-over five TO one. Also q
vote was taken on whether the city
should own its own lighting plants. and
it showed 139, 900 ia fay or and 81, 1854
against-more than six TO one for own
ership. A clea' way Is open now for
the Milwaukee 18th story kicker league
80 denounce all Chicago as a den Of
populists and anarchists But we fcv
get: this is not all: A vote was taken
to decide whether the people of Chicago
are in favor of nominations az primaries
that lie, whether they are in favor OF
primary elections, On this question the
vote stood lao, 0S6 for and II, 854 against
more than eight to one, Surely HI
is let loose in Chicago, the old hunkers
will be saying The sentiment of the
whole country is like it is in Chicago,
The people are in favor of governing
themselves. They would like to be
free from the plague of political plum

We find the screed below from the
Fennimore Times copied in the Viroqua
Republican.
A few disgruntled individuals and
uapers have been barking at Congress
man Babcock's heels because the con-
gressional convention has not been
ea.ied any later than it was two years
ago They nse this "a a pretext Tor
snarling at him, simply because they
have nothing else to throw up against
him.
Now doesn't that sound brilliant, COM
ing as it does from papers on which Mr.
Bsbcock holds blanket mort2sges2 The
facts are that if there was disposition to
throw up anything against Mr.. Bah
cock the most natural sources Of infor-
NATION and upply would be to dig up
hles Of the two papers above named,
where a rich and rare collection Of stuff
can be obt ned. II was but q short
two campaigns since these papers reviled
Mr.. Babcock as the embodiment of all
that Is low, contemplate and ignorant.
OF course there are now sufficient and
special reasons why they shall jump
when ever the congressman or any Of
his trained msnipulators pull the string
AS is we'll known, the CENSOR has not,
nor does it oppose the denomination Of
Congressman BAbcock. 1t has simply
called attention TO the unnatural and
unnecessary conventions thrust upon the
republicans Of this district at time
when very large per cent. of the vosers
are unusually busy in their fields. 1t is
safe to say that not one in a hundred
republicans Of Vernon county approve
Of the scheme, 1t is an act that has no
justification from any standpoint, and
a few mortgaged organ simpletons make
themselves ridiculous by thrusting per-
sonalities into the discussion instead of
attempting to give reasons for the I'M
precedented convention deal.
