Since the above was placed in type a
scandal, such as the CENSOR was NOR
ally certain would come, if the Milwau-
kee way Of conducting matters was fol
lowed up, has been exposed, and it is
humiliation on the craft that will give
rise to general belief that the news
paper fraternity in Wisconsin is com
posed of pack Of boodlers and bride
takerc. The expose was made in Grant
county. involving a half-dozsn newspa
pers and their publishers. 1t is the
same story from all parts of Wisconsin
that good per cent of the newspapers
of the state have been subsidized and
bribed by the use of money, some
Of them innocently and others with full
knowledge of the wickedness and dis
reputable part they are playing.
The Grant county expose involves
some of .he best-known papers in the
county, two of whose publishers &C
knowledge under oath that they. accept
ed cash and drafts for support of the
Milwaukee political Stalwart crowd who
have organized in opposition to the reg
ular republicans of Wisconsin for the
purpose of influencing legislation and
shielding the corporations from just
taxation. These two publishers confess
their mistake and returned the money
to the officers of the Stalwart league.
They make clean breast of the job and
plead that they were encouraged to ac
cept the money by prominent federal
Office holders and others. An employee

ing Doodle to the newspapers if they
would inlist in the cause of publishing
ready-made editorials from the Milwau-
kee oligarchy defaming Governor La
Toilette. Such condition of affairs has
never been brought to light in any state
in the Union, and the methods used to
corrupt honest men AMI publishers
would put to shame the Tweed regime
of olden times in New York. And all
this they declare, is being done in the
interest of saving the republican party
from populism," Under the lead of the
Milwaukee Sentinel, the country papers
