CALLS IT STANDARD OIL VICTORY.
Lawson Accuses McCarren of Being Paid
Agent of Oil Trust
[RY TELEGRAPH 40 rHE TnlpuNE. ]

Boston. July 9-Thomas W. Lawson has issued
a statement in which he declares that the nomina-
ton of Judge Parker is victory for the Standard
Oil interests and that their principal agent in ac-
complaining Parker's nomination Senator Nc
Carren of Brooklyn.
Mr.. Lawson says that McCarren has been for
years on the Standard Oil payroii FIRST az 40 UO
a year then $4,000. and since Tammanys success
IN the last municipal election. at $4,000 as their
secret agent McCarren so effectually put Tam

fights to nullify its power at st. Louis says
Mr.. Lawson. The next move after the nominating
OF Judge Parker it IS said will be to show Presi-
dent Roosevelt that he will unquestonably be de-
feated by the Withholding of campaign funds and
the turning Of them the Democratic Ma

This situation. il is declared, means that Wall
Street is absolutely of victory for If the Pres
ident does give II, the demands will BE made upon
him, and 1t will mean the absolute subserviencv
OF the Republican administration during his second
term or If he does not give IL. 1t will surely mean
his defeat by Parker. in which event Wall Street
will handle the financial end OF the Democratic
administration.

Hazing Is Lawlessness

A serious case of hazing has occurred
at the University of Wisconsin. The re-
suit is wounded student, much unin-
tellectual excitement and student driv-
en- from the school. Hazing selects some
supposed weakling and the wits of the
student body conspire to make him a
victim. 1t is great fun for these stu
dents, strong III numbers and in ingenu
ity to get after this victim and make
life a burden to him. Should one OF
these supposed weaklings resist, as in
this case, the honor Of some hundreds of
students is at stake and any measures
for his undoing are in order.
This is standard of courage and dis
cretion not known outside of colleges.
The victims may not be worth much
consideration as such. They may be
any old kind of no good; the point is on
the influence on the character of those
who do the hszing, and the underlying
savagery exhibited. If our schools can
not eradicate this, they should at least
overlap it with stronger influences to its
restraint. The students should grow to
stronger manhood, and learn that
moral courage is higher endowment
than mob spirit; that they are at
school for purposes other than the force
full regeneration of any fellow or his
elimination from their body. Hazing
should end.-Milwaukee Journal.

MEssRs. Willet and Gray, sugar stat
isticians, New York, issued on October
20 their annual preliminary figures upon
the 1904-5 beet sugar campaign in the
United States. According to this state
ment, the number of beet.sugar factor
les in operation in the United States in
l9O4-5 was 81, as compared with So in
operation in the previous year. In Mich
igan the number of factories in operation
in 19O4-5, as compared with the previous
year, decreased from 20 to Is, in Califor-
MIA from to 5, and in New York from
to l. The states in which there was an
increase in the number of factories OPP
Grating were Wisconsin, with an increase
from to 3; Colorado, with an increase
from 8 to 8; and Idaho, with an increase
from to g. AS might be inferred from
this decrease in the number OF factories
operating, there has been a decline in
the sugar beet area of the present cam
paign as compared with athat,of the pre-
vious year. The possible yield of sugar
in 19O4-5 is estimated Professionally at
l9l 900 tons, against 2O8,135 tons actual
yield in 1904, an indicated decrease in
weld for the present pear of upwards of
8 per cent.

CERTAINLY cabinet position can not
be regarded in the way of promotion for
one who has attained and holds the
prominent position enjoyed by Mr..
Spooner in the senate. He has twice de-
clined cabinet appointments within the
last ten years. He was returned TO the
senate by unanimous vote of Wisconsin
republicans in 1903, in recognition of
unmistakable public sentiment, and re-
CARELESS of fractional feeling which was
quite as intense then as now, measured
by election returns. His position and
prestige in Washington are secure for
another five years against any political
emergency in or out of Wisconsin. His
relations with the president could scarce
be more intimate as a member of the
cabinet than they have been as leader
of the administration forces in the SEN
ate. His experience, knowledge and
skill in debate has been of great and
generally recognized value in the senate.
Presumably the president as we'll as the
public will hope that he may conclude
to retain the position which political
enemies as we'll as political friends &C.
corded to him as due recognition of his
abilities.

The southern states appear to be not
little disgruntled over the presidential
outcome. They were the only ones that
gave any electoral votes to the demo-
cratic candidate. They are now claim
ing that if the northern states can cast
no votes for democratic presidential
candidate, the naming of the candidate
might as we'll go to the South, and who,
in that case, would assuredly be south
ern man. That seems very moderate
request. The South has been casting
it's votes in vain for northern men; why
not give her chance to vote for south
ern man? The outcome, under no cir
cumstances, could be more disastrous
than it has been for many years, and
might perhaps result differently. At any
rate, it would be only an act Of simple
justice to show them this courtesy.

THE Madison Journal discusses the
availability of the several half breed
candidadates for the senate to succeed
Mr.. Quarles. 1t rejects Mr.. Conner and
Mr.. Stephenson as too stiff a dose for
even the faithful. Mr.. Cooper might do,
save for his sudden conversion at time
when it meant the saving of his political
hide. Esch of Lacrosse is safely on the
administration side, but more consistent
ly and not as suddenly and effusively as
Cooper. Otherwise, he may be favor
ite even with the Stalwarts. A. r. Hall
is spoken of as a man capable of growth
a good man with no faint of sudden con
version upon him. Judge Webb would
be no discredit and has often been sug-
;gested and supported for that place. His
fitness recommends him more than po-
Iitical expediency. On the whole, in the
opinion of the Madison paper, s. Il.
Stout is the man. Considered in all
aspects of fitness, character, popularity
and political expediency, Mr.. Stout
would be equal to the things he is called
on for. The Madison Journal discusses
these men with a clear mind and dispas-
sionately, and there is much sense and
suggestion in its comments.

The political success of w. L. Doug
las, democratic governor elect of Massa-
chusetts, is one Of the wonders of the
election. The result is regarded by poll
ticians as inexplicable. To others, how
ever, the problem of Mr.. Douglas sue
cess is not SO difficult, He advertised.
AS manufacturer of shoes his name
and his face were known to every reader
of newspapers. When he became can
didate for public Office he had the ad-
vantage of his business publicity, and he
began Immediately to advertise his can
didacy just as he had advertised the
product of his factory. 1t was a novel
method, but it was evidently not an un-
welcome one to the readers of the news
papers. They identified the man and
were pleased with his ambition and his
methods of addressing them. The re-
suit is boldly written in the election re-
turns.

Forger Arrested at GAINESVILLE

When Acting Chief Brown brought
about the arrest of William g. Landwith
on the charge of forging check for 800
at the Hotel Myers, he secured a mnch
wanted man. Monday word was receiv-
ed from the police at Boston, New York,
Milwaukee and La Crosse asking for a
description of the prisoner. An officer
arrived from Milwaukee and identified
the prisoner as being wanted in the
Cream City for securing $50 on false
pretenses.
Landwith, who was apprehended Fri
day by the police of Beloit, was com
united to the Rock county Jail pending
his examination on the charge of at
tempting to pass worthless check. His
bonds were fixed at $500 and no one ap-
peared to sign for him.

GOred to Death by a Cow.

John Partridge, aged IS years, was
gored to death by COW at the farm of
Henry Burrier, on which he was en-
ployed, four miles west of Alton, Satur-
day. Mr.. Partridge and other men on
the farm attempted to drive the cow and
her calf from field and the COW, which
was vicious, attacked him, sinking both
horns into his abdomen. After he was
knocked down, the infuria Led animal
stamped upon her victim and it was with
difficulty that she was driven away from
the dying man.
