TOGA FOR LA TOILETTE.

Nominated for Senator.
ONE BALLOT NEEDED.
Quarles Learns He Has No Chance and

Madison. Wis, Jan. 23.-The Repub-

Necessary to choice, "a
Before the caucus was called to order
the supporters of Senator QuarleS saw
they had no possible chance of nOminat-
ing him, and were all released by the
senator. At first the Quarles men decid-
ed not to go into the caucus, but changed
their minds late in the day, and the wires
were kept hot for some time i'll summon
ing absentees to the city. Their action
was a great surprise to the La Toilette
leaders, who were almost swept off their
feet by the sudden favorable turn in the
situation. The La Toilette men applaud
ed loudly when such strenuous opponents
of the governor as Senator Whitehead,
Beach, Rogers and Roehr voted for him.
The Webb men could have had the
support of the Quarles men if they had
been able to muster enough votes of their
own to make majority. At least
dozen Quarles men voted for the COVER
nor. Congressman Cooper, who was a
candidate early in the canvass, with
drew after the La Toilette men held their
conference last week and announced that
they would have enough votes to give
the governor the nomination last night.
Immediately after that conference Con-
gresham Esch also released his sup
porters, but four of them refused to give
up the fight and voted for him last night.
Isaac Stephenson Of Marinette, who was
a receptive though not active candidate,
did not receive any votes in the caucus.
Gov. La Follette's name was presented
to the caucus by Senator ]. J. McGilli-
yray of Black River Falls, who also was
the presiding officer. A seconding speech
was made by Senator A. NJ. Stondall Of
Madison. The names of the other candi-
dates were not formally presented, their
supporters simply voting for them when
the roll was called.
When the vote was announced Senator
Hatten, one of the Webb managers,
moved that the nomination be made
unanimous, and the motion was seconded
by Senator Wilcox, another Webb man.
When the motion was put and the presid
ing officer asked those opposing it to
stand up, several Quarles men got on
their feet. but the motion was hastily de-
clared to be carried unanimously.

Do Not Suppress a Cough.

When you have cough do not try to
suppress it, but remove the cause. The
cough is only SYMPTOM of some disease,
and the disease is what you should cure,
then the cough will stop of itself. The
most common cause ofcoughing is cold.
hnodynes viii promptly suppress the
cough, Interpretations containing chic,
reform, opium, etc, are used for that
purpose, but they do not cure the cold,
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy on the
other hand does not suppress the
cough, but relieves it by removing from
the throat and lungs the mucus which
obstructed the breathing and allaying
the irritation and tickling in the throat
1t also opens the secretions and effect
ually and permanently cures the cold al
well as the cough. For sale by Free
