lie service corporations TO favored shippers
at the expense of the farmer and producer
as well as the wage Garner and consumer as
un-Amerlcan, and we reiterate that all per :
sons are, or ought to be, entitled to equal
rights and equal privileges. We favor the
enactment OF law Furnishing as = felony the
giving OF rebates and unjust Determinations
by railroad corporations.
We believe the time has now arrived tn
this state when railway companies can well
afford TO make uniform passenger rate OF
two cents per mile.
We favor the adoption OF aprimarY election
law giving TO all voters a direct voice in the
nomination Of their candidates for public
office, under the Australian ballot system.
We favor the immediate enactment OF laws,
already too long delayed, which will bring to
the people equal and Just taxaction OF all
property and all interests
We especially commend the present re-
publican state administration as honest,
capable, dignifed and, above all, economical,
and we approve OF It's attempts TO carry TO
fruition the repeated promises of the party -
the people, ami pledge our continued abiding

greatest governor, Robert NJ. La Toilette and
the entire state ticket, nominated at II re-
gular republican convention, held at the
Gymnasium, Madison, May IL, 1904.
We uehounce as un-republican and unJust-
nable the spirit of rule or ruin manifested by
the minority In that convention, inspired as
II was by the agerte of the public service cor
porations. The course of the men formerly
nigh in party councils who led, aided or abet-
ted the bolt OF the minority, thus showing
their complete subserviency to corporation
control, merits and receives our condemna-
ton.
We congratulate the people on the fact that
the railroads Of this state Will, in the future
contribute to the public treasury nearly
million dollars year more than in the past
This rest 1t has been brought about by the In
sistence of Governor La Toilette for the ad-
yalurum system of taxation. We note with
satisfaction that this event is one OF the
grave disturbances Ia the party" charged to
of our party,
We approve OF the work and votes Of our
representatives Ia the legislature, senator
