like many Others IN like situations
he has been rather disappointed In
the administration
In what has Gov. LaFollette's ad-
ministration disappointed this as
pirant, who claims to have done so
much to secure the governors nom
ination and election? Is he disap-
pointed because Gov. LaFollette af-
ter election stood firmly for the
things he so boldly and consistently
championed before election, when
NJ. Clausen supported him? Where
in is the administration Of Govern
OF La Toilette different from what it
might have been expected when Mr..
Clauseu was striving to nominate
him? Did Mr.. Clausen expect LaFol-
lette as governor to do other than urge
the legislature to give force by law
to the governmental policies that
LaFollette as candidate had advo-
Gated through many years, and that
finally received the official endorse
ment of the republican state conven-
ton and became platform pledges of
the party? Certainly not.
Then his disappointment must be
the governors distribution of official
patronage that Mr.. Clausen is dis
appointed, like many others" AL.
though to the individual affected
this may seem sufficient reason for
changing front in relation to the gov
ernor, it is hardly good ground for
general disapproval of an admins
tration otherwise conducted on prom
ised Inns, for equalization Of taxation
aud other reforms. 1t is not to be sup
posed, of course. that the announce
ment that Mr.. Clausen ais rather dis
appointed in the administration" is
designed to help his candidacy for
the state treasurership with the plat
form repudiuting Phstertes Of the
Eleventh Story League. O, no!

IRONY OF IRON TARIFF REFORM.

Many sincere believers in the neces-
sity for Legislation to check the pow
er of trusts, have fears that Mr.. Bah
cocks bill. if passed, would have no
effect on commodities in which the
general public is concerned; that
railroads and other great corpora
tions that use the heavier products
of the trust, would be the only ones
benefited. This view is ironically,
yet forcibly presented by the Dodge
ville Chronicle thus:
"If Mr. Bahcock succeeds in getting
tho tariff removed from the trust
made goods by the iron and steel
manufacturers, the common people
Will find they can buy their iron and
steel bridges, their 2o-story sky
seraping buildings and their rail-
road rails cheaper than at present,
and every family can than afford
an assortment of them for their
children during the rigors of cold
winter, and when potatoes are dol
lar % hushel OF course Mr.. Babcock
will not include lumber, doors nor
windows, in his tariff bill, for the
reason that he has large stock of
them on hand himself, and his con-
Stituents can live in iron bridges un.
til he sells out his lumber yards, and
they can make their beds on iron
rails, The most necessary thing for
family use at present., Is cheap IRON
bridges, a commodity that has not
produced dollar of revenue to the
country since Mr.. Babcock has been
IN congress, and perhaps never Will,
but he is determined to take otl the
tariff because he feels that way, and
nobody cares whether he succeed
or not, except SO far as it will in
crease the prices OF stoves with al
their furniture 10y letting in foreign
made goods to take the place of our
own, and shutting down our facto-
ries and building up those of the old
countries.

Recently a travelling man ex-
pressed himself as being of the
opinion that the railroads aud
mercantile establishments which
have regulated against the use OF
tobacco and liquor among their
employees We're doing more for the
cause Of temperance than all the
lecturers in the country.
When we heard this statement
we were reminded of the efforts Of
the dsuntless Mrs. Hunt, who has
done more than anyone else in es-
tablishing the study of scientific
temperance in the schools Of all
the states and most Of tho terri
tories. We are now beginning to
see lae sruit Of her labor.

exient.
Ii is difficult to believe all this
bat il tits really true, cure other
than the saloon can be found.
Some one has suggested that the
same precauti ons and regulations
be resorted to as the railroads aud
other corporations have adopted.

These days when so many are
