SUPPLEMENT
TO THE
Superior Times.
SATURDAY, OCTOBER %, 1902.

Milwaukee, Wis, Oct l, 1902
Gov. Il. NJ. La Toilette addressed a
crowd which tested the capacity of the
West Side Turn hall Tuesday evening
and which broke ont in enthusiastic
cheers when the governor appeared and
whenever he made a telling point In his
speech. Hundreds of persons were
turned away from the hall. The stage
was filled with well known Republicans,
and the aises and Hobbies to the side Of
the main hall were crowded with stand
Ing people. There were many ladies In
the audience, some of them standing
through the entire evening.
A Sympathetic Audience.
The speech was read from manuscript
and took almost three hours to deliver.
The audience was with the speaker from
ne instant he appeared on the stage I'M
ii he left the hall At the conclusion of
his speech hundreds pushed to the stage
to shake him by the hand. The crush
was so intense that the governor was
forced to stand upon a table and for half
an hour greeting those who passed be-
fore him.
National Issues.
No mention was made Of David s.
Rose, the Democratic candidate. Not
once in the whole speech was his name
spoken. The governor, however, with
scathing sarcasm held up the Democratic
platform to light and showed how tiimsl-
~ IL was made up. He accused the pres
ent Democratic party of being controlled
and manipulated by public service cor
porations.
Mention of Spooner Applauded.
The governor aroused the audience to
an intense pitch OF excitement when he
spoke OF the conspicuous leadership Of
Senator Spooner and for several min
utes he could not 20 on with his speech
Oh account Of the applause. The speak
er touched upon national issues first
stating that the time had come when
tariff revision must stand close guard
over tariff schedules, but Insisted that
the revision should ever be made on the
protective basis. Then he took UP the
primary election law and taxation re-
form and discussed each eXAauStively,
He cited results from other states to
show that primary elections were desir-
able and quoted great many figures to
sustain his taxation contentious.

Maj. Charles II. Anson's Remarks.
Chairman Zillmer of the county COM
mittee called the meeting to order and
introduced Maj. Charles II. Arson, who
spoke as follows:
The Republican party of Wisconsin Is
entering upon a campaign which not only
has q bearing on immediate results, but
upon the great question, whether or not
Wisconsin shall continue to stand in tho
proud column Of Republican states. II is
impossible 10 separate the campaign upon
which we now enter from the national
campaign which looms up in the near
future.
Wisconsin Ia a Republican state from
principle It Is not the home OF free
trade, and does not believe that the Dem
pcratc party Is qualified 10 revise the
tariff In such manner as to protect and
preserve the features which interest
every laboring man and every business
interest in the land. That it is not the
party to deal with the new problems con-
fronting the government, which must be
wrought out along the lines indicated by
Mckinley and Roosevelt
The appeal, therefore. comes to Us at
the present time to lift ourselves above
the spirit OF faction and 10 labor for the
success Of the Republican ticket.
No other course can accomplish the OBJ
Sect we all have In view and bring oNr
party into harmonious relations for the
great battle of the future.
The Governors Speech.
The governor then arose and after the
applause subsidized said
Fellow Citizens, Ladies' and Gentle
men: ] thank you very much for this
cordial greeting here tonight.
Under our form Of government the citi-
rem should determine all the issues; and
you will exercise your right OF suffrage
!n this election upon national and upon
state questions as well | would IN no
wise disparase the importance OF ma.
floral issues In this campaign. But with
In the limits Of single address | should
be unwilling 70 attempt a thorough dis
tuseioa of both. ] should not feel how
rver, that | had discharged my duty as a
Republican on this occasion II / passed
by national issues In silence.
In the last FIVE years OF Republican
administration the progr, - Of this nation
al home and abroad, iudustrially and
commercially, has challenged the admira-
ton and smazement Of the world. Our
support OF Cuba in a just cause, brought
grave responsibilities that have been and
will continue 10 be honorably discharged.
The unforeseen acquisition Of new terri
tory stimulated the commercial spirit,
which has eliminated in securing the
lonssought, long-needed waterway be
tween the American continents Too
much credit cannot be given the con.
ttructiye craftsmanship that has led 70
the accomplishment Of tbs end. Wis
eohsln takes pride IL the prominence Of
Der representatives In Congress md
me conspicuous leadership Of Senator
spooner Ia this great WORK. To break
nowu the barriers Of trade between
Alaska and the states west Of the Rocky
mountains and the states east: 20 bring
pur immediate national life into closer r.
lstionship, Is the fitting climax Of our
