TO DEMAND PLEDGE
Half breed Leaders Are After
the State Candidates and a
Hard Fight is Expected
DECLARE AGAINST tspooNER

How far the fight by the LaFo11ette
people against the reelection of John
&c. Spooner to the United States sem
ate is to be carried can be seen when
It is stated that written pledges have
been prepared, which will be pre-
.sented to all Republican candidates
for the legislature Seeking ha1f-breed
support in the primaries, and which
when signed pledge the candidate to
oppose the reelection of Mr.. Spooner.
Although the next senatorial cleo
ton in Wisconsin will not take place
until the legislative session of 1909,
assembly candidates, as we'll as can
didates for state senator, are being
presented with the pledges, it being
the evident intention of the LaFollette
managers to secure the pledges from
the assembly candidates now so that
if they should happen to be reelected
the pledges will have been obtained
in advance. State senators this year
will be members Of the legislature of
1909 and will thus participate IN the
senatorial election.
In obtaining these pledges it would
seem as if the LaFo11ette leaders
were violating the spirit Of the pri-
mary law, which is their own child, as
that law distinctly provides that can
didates for United States senator shall
be nominated by the people in the pri-
mary election with the evident idea
that the members of the legislature Of
the part in power shall feel at least
morally bound to vote for the man for
United States senator endorsed in
their party primary. Evidently it is
the intention of the LaFo11ette people
to defeat Senator Spooner in the 1egis-
lature even should he receive the en-
dorsement of the rank and file of the
Republican party in the primary cleo
ton of 1908.

THERE promises to be no lack of
candidates for the nomination for
sheriff on either OF the old party
tickets this fall and the primary cam
paign will be much more lively and
exciting, not to say expensive, than
the regular election. No matter who
wins out at the primaries the cam
paign for the nomination is bound to
leave some sore spots behind that will
have considerable influence in de-
termining the final result. The
sheriff's job with it's fat salary is the
grand prize of the ambitious local
politicians, and the man who mag
ines, rightly or wrongly, that his SER
vices to his party entit1e him to a
chance to try for it, gets very sore
when he is turned down.

NAY FORM A TRUST
Farmers Of Country Around Chi.
cage to Meet at the Great
Northern TO Organize
kEN0sHA MEN INTERESTED

The American Society of Equity,
an organization composed of farmers
in Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, Michigan,
Wisconsin and other states of the
northwest, has called a convention to
meet in the Great Northern hotel in
Chicago on June II and Is, at which
time another organization, to be
known as the marketing asso citation,
WILDE formed. 1t is to be composed
of fa5mers and its object is to market
all kinds of perishable vegetables and
fruits and also butter,seggs, poultry
and all kinds of dairy products.
tits proposed to control the supply
lof all products till the markets are
ready for it and in this way bring to
| the producers all the benefits that are
derived by others from storing veg
letables, fruits, eggs and the like at a
time of plenty and low prices for a
time Of scarcity and hig h prices. It is
distinctly stated that the new organi-
cation is not to be trust, but 1t is
proposed to eliminate the individual
as marketer Of his products and
marketthem through the association
though they may reach the c5lar- r
| ultimately through the same channels
as now. Speaking of the object of the
new EXAMINATIONS, the president of
the American Society Of Equity
says:
zone of the results of the new sys-
tenn Of marketing will be greater uni
formity of prices and an increased
consumption Of all products com
prised in the class over which this
proposed association will have
control.
For instance, the producers them
selves or their association will control
the supply until the demand is ready
for it. Then there will be no 1O-cent
eggs IN the summer and so cents in
the winter. But only enough eggs
| will be marketed during the harvest
season to supply the demand at fair
prices, say Is or 2Ocents. The balance
will go into storage for the producers
account, or in storehouses owned by
the producers, and will come on the
market in the winter at about Is cents
a dozen. The Uniform and moderate
prices will induce much larger con-
sumption.
"With apples il will be similar.
The time when growers get 81 a barrel
in the fall and consumers pay So in
the winter will be past. But the price
will be equitable, according to the
crop, over the whole consuming sea-
son."

THE man who spits on the sidewalk
not only shows himself without re-
gard for the rights of others but also
as man of unclean personal habits.
This dirty habit is growing more
general and some of the down town
corners are filthy beyond description.
Something will have to be done to
check it even if the city has to go to
the length of passing an ordinance
against it.

abuses. Here as elsewhere IN the
