Northern Wisconsin advertiser. [volume] (Wabeno, Wis.) 1898-1925, 1902-07-17

Incidentally it may be noted that the
most accurate forecast of the probable
ticket is:
Governor-R. NJ La Toilette, Dane.
Lieutenant governor-J. o. David
son. Crawford,
Secretary of state-w. L. Housei
Buffalo.
Treasurer. G. End. Sheboygan.
Attorney general. NJ. Sturtevant,
Clark.
State uperintendent-L. d. Harvey,
Milwaukee.
Insurance commissioner-Zeno NJ.
Host, Milwaukee.
Mark it, Harvey will be named not
withstanding the opposition lately de-
veloping. The teachers of the state
are for him and they exist in every pre-
cinct. The prospective railway com
missioner is the most obscure identity
in the present situation The best in
formed of the rival elements offer no
satisfactory information. Here are
the several candidates; Alex Nelson
of Price county; F. 0. Tarbox of Ash
land Hoyt A. Winslow, of Fond du
Lac; A. NJ. Anderson of Grantsburg;
Nels Nelson of Bayfield,; w. ]. Som
mers of Douglas county, and Graham
L. Rice, the present commissioner.
The full list of candidates for the
various offices is:
Governor.
r. M. La Toilette. Dane.
John NJ. Whitehead, Rock.
Lieutenant Governor.
]. o. Davidson (now state treas
urer), Crawford.
Secretary of State.
Walter l.. Houser, Buffalo.
Rock ]. Flint, editor of Menomonie,
Dunn county and war veteran.
Henry P. Schmidt, Washington, as
sistant secretary of state.
Joseph l.. FAIR, Phillips.
State Treasurer.
]. G. End, Sheboygan, a German
banker.
Ex-senator j. j. Kempf, Milwaukee.
John F. Jardine, Waupaca.
Leander Ferguson, merchant, BraI
don, war veteran.
l.. N. Clauson, Bayfield,, insurance
man.
Hans P. Fuley, Sawyer
Attorney General.
L. NJ. Sturteyant, Clark county
Martin Bergh, La Crosse.
Judge d. G. Clason, Oconto.
Insurance Commissioner.
Zeno NJ Host, Milwaukee.
r. T. Hardwood, Milwaukee.
j. E. Brodwell, Sparta.
Railroad Commissioner.
Alex Nelson, Price county.
F. o. Tarbox, Ashland.
Hoyt A. Winslow, Fond du Lac.
A. NJ Anderson, Grantsburg.
Nels Nelson, Bayfield, county.
w. j.. Sommers, Douglas county
Graham L. Rice, present railroad
commissioner.
State Superintendent.
L. d. Harvey, Milwaukee, present
incumbent.
c. P. Cary, superintendent of Della
van school.
l.. E. Gettle, Edgerton, ex-assistalt
superintendent public instruction.
Gen. G. E. Bryant of Dane will
doubtless be continued as chairman of
the state central committee. A short
convention is anticipated, adjourn
ment possibly occurring late tomorrow
night. The convention opens at noon
and Judge l.. H. Bancroft of Richland
Center will be temporary chairman
and may be made the permanent pre-
siding officer. The resolutions will
strike hard for reform at primary
elections; La Toilette will be enthusi-
astically endorsed and a guarded COM
mendation for Spooner's course as
senator will be given, but it is not
probable that his reelection will be re
quested. Although a short convention
is likely the chances are that the
work will run well into Thursday.
The city is now thronged by thou
sands The delegates alone number
1,065. Congressional and county eau
cuses will be numerous this afternoon
and evening, but the net result will
be about as indicated
above. Possibly Farr or Flint may
beat Houser for. secretary of state or
Kempf defeat End for treasurer but
not. probably. Other contests are of
little consequence.
