Roosevelt practically forced his way
into the mansion and driven out the

to discard his crutches he went over
there and easily discovered that g.
large amount Of unnecessary pulling
down and building up was going on
There and then he announced that he
proposed to eat his dinner and sleep

vain the contractors protested The
president stuck to it and in the end
had his way.

Republican Victory De-
veIOps Into a
Landslide
Governor and Cary Run
NOG Far Behind
Their Ticket

Milwaukee, Wis, Nov. 6.-Returns
received up to midnight show that
the election in Wisconsin was a land
slide for Gov La Toilette. He has
now a plurality of fully $4,000 and the
full returns seem to promise to leave
the final figure at not less tain $4,000.
N fact it may go even higher.
Gen. George E. Bryant, chairman of
the republican state central commit
tee, said he was surprised at the ma
jority for the governor, that he had
thought it possible to go near $4,000
or $4,000 at the best but had not
looked for as much as the figures
show.
Mayor Rose, the defeated demo
cratic candidate, said that Wisconsin
is in line with other states and that
the democrats were honestly and
fairly defeated and should accept the
conclusion with good grace.
The republicans have elected all
but -wO of the 33 members OF the state
senate and Is Of the 100 members of
the assembly. There have been many
changes from republican to democrat
and vice versa, resulting probably
from the bitter factional fight in the
republican camp. The two demo
cratic senators in the last legislature
will not return, their places being
taken by republicans. The districts
represented by A. M. Oong) Jones
in Waukesha county and by Barney
A. Eaton in Milwaukee county will be
represented by democrats.
Postmaster General Payne wired H.
A. Taylor, assistant secretary Of the
treasury, that the return Of John c..
Sp0Oner to the United States senate
is q certainty.
1t had been expected that La Fol
lette and Cary would run far behind
the other candidates on the republi-
can ticket. The returns show that
this was not the case. The governor
seems to have run less than 900 be-
mind his ticket in Milwaukee and
Gary is up with the bunch
Gov La Toilette was at the execrl-
tive office in the capitol yesterday re
cefving congratulations from scores
of political friends and others. A
large number Of cOngratulatory tele-
grams were received.
The governor came through the ar
du0us campaign in better nhv@icaI cor
dition than he has enjoyed after any
other political fight of any conse-
ouence i'll his career. Although some
what fatigued, he seems to still nave
a good store Of energy.
Treasurer Davidson, lieutenant gov
ernor elect, is planning a hunting trip
in the northern part of the state after
deer and accuatic FOWL and is tr7 ing
to persuade the governor to take the
outing.
Madison republicans, irrespective Of

Of Secretary Of State Froehlich to be
