laF0llette Wins Out.

In the Wisconsin gubernatorial
nominee contest the supreme court
on Wednesday handed down a de-
cision that Robert NJ. LaFollette
was entitled to the regular nominal
ton of the Republican party in that
state for governor.
While Minnesotans have no voice
in the matter many present resi-
dents of this state are former Wis.,
consinites, and the decision is
pleasing to those who have watched
political affairs in our sister state.
Ex- Congressman Cook, who be-
came the Stalwart candidate for the
position in opposition to Mr.. La
Toilette, has made the statement
that in case LaFollette was declar-
ed the regular nominee he would
drop the fight at once, retiring from
the field. 49,. ...,..s.,..
