The State;
Congressman Babcock admits that
he Is in great danger OF defeat for re-
election and has arranged to send in
to his district a number of noted
speakers from other states.
This is deplorable fight for the
congressman and the loyal Republi-
cans OF his district. If Mr.. Babcock
had consistently served his party
constituents by keeping his party
aloof from the fight on the state ad-
ministration, and thus respected the
unmistakable sentiment Of the party
in his district he would be in no dan

United States senators who have ad-
vanced the interests of corporations
have found it easy to accumulate
large bank accounts. This does not
mean that they have been directly
and vulgarly bribed, but the tips
they get as to the course Of the stock
market has brought some Of them
great wealth. 1t has been frequently
stated by a stalwart Office holder
that one Of our Wiscontin senators,
who is reputed millionaire, was in
the habit of leaving his work in

should be condemned.
