So far the present controversy in the
Republican party has bten happily free
from personalities, except that some OF
the La Toilette papers have taken occa-
sion to criticise Mr.. Whitehead because
of his not drinking intoxicating liquors
and believes in going to church on Sun
bay, instead of attending base ball
games and other amusements. We do
not think that kind of criticism will
win. Even men who indulge their ap-
petites like clean and respectable per-
sons to occupy positions OF trust and
honor, and would so declare by a large
mojority if the matter were left to q
vote. OF course, il Mr. Whitehead
was q prohibitionist. the case would be
different. But he is not. He is SIM
ply sober, decent Republican, and as
such can not be successfully assailed by
the factional press.-West Bend Dem

Death of Bank Examiner Kidd.

State Bank Examiner E. I. Kidd died
at his home in Prairie du Chen early
Tuesday morning, after a long and
painful illness.
In nativity, education and experience
Mr.. Kidd was worthy product OF his
own state. He was born in Millville,
Grant county, May 10, 1874, and resid-
ed there continuously until his removal
to Prairie du Chen in 1889. His boy
hood days were such as the sons OF pio-
neer farmers are familiar with-hard,
practical work, limited educational adj
yantages and necessity for developing
grit and selt-reliance. Through his
own efforts he acquired good common
school and partial academic education.
In 1889 he, with General Fairchild
and others, established the Bank of
Prairie du Chen, to the active manage
ment ot which he SUCCESSFULLY devoted
himself until 1895, when he was ap-
pointed by Govnor Upham as state bank
examiner and reappoiuted by Govrnor
La Toilette in 1899. During his resid-
ence in Grant county his fellow citizens
almost constantly and UNANIMOUSLY sum-
moned him to their service in legisla-
tive and administrative capacities, his
work on the county board covering a
period of ten years, up to 1880, when
he was chosen to represent his district
in the state legislature. He was re-
elected TO the assembly in 1882 and
1883, and in 1884 was promoted to the
state senate by his Grant county con-
stituency in the Sixteenth senatorial
district. In 1883 his district, then en-
larged by the addition of Crawford
county, returned him to the senate.
At the age of II he enlisted in Gen
Rusk's old 25th.regiment and served
through he war.

For movement which depends upon
the people for its existence, it would
appear that La Folletteism is maintain
cd more by the men drawing salaries
from the state than it is by the tax
payers. What would it amount to SO
far as Wisconsin is concerned without
the game wardens, oil inspectors and
other employees who travel about the
state at the expense of the taxpayers.
1t is not approved of by the conserva-
tive business men nor does the COVER
nor's conduct of affairs find accord
in the endorsement OF the people gen.
orally. Under the operation of a per-
feet political machine. he is able to
make showing. which may mislead
some into the belief that it is tower
OF strength. If the revenues were
shut of for ten days the movement
would go out of existence. These rev
nues are furnished chiefly by the tax
payers ii order to defray the expenses
OF ths state employees.--Hartland

do not base their opposition to La Fol-

The mere raising of taxes is not re.
form. What is needed is that the
state should know just what the legis
lature apprcpriates. At present, un-
der the system lowing one mill and
kindred pro-rata taxes. it is almost inn
possible to tell how much is levied
and consequently it is larger than il
ought to be. To double the railroad
taxes would not decrease the amount
to be paid by the people so long as the
present system prevails. -Gillett Times
