Program VS.. Platform

The program is that if Davidson is
elected governor John G. Spooner, the
corporation attorney, will succeed him.
selfsin the United States Senate and
that later on w. ID. Conner will succeed
Robert M. LaFollette in the United
States Senate. Now there are two
things that the people of this state do
not want and will not tolerate. The
first is John c. Spooner's reelection to
the Senate, and the next is that they do
not want any such man as W. ID. Con-
nor to succeed Robert Marion LaFol-
lette in the U. S. Senate Wisconsin
people have had enough of this kind OF
traffic in offices and from appearances
Spooner's corporation career will ter

corporations behind him were not
blinded by greed and avarice they'd see

w. d. Conner, tthe new power in
Wisconsin politics" is an old power in
many sections of some of the Northern
counties where his lumber interests are
large. His power is a great deal older
than the residents of some of those Sec
tons desire. The history of this power
should have been incorporated in that
biographical sketch of Mister Connors'
which has during the past few months,
been distributed broadcast throughout
the state, but it was not.
If the corporations can continue to
elect men to congress and crowd them
into the United States senate it is all
well and good, but those men should
not pose there as representing the peo-
pie. Now the question is: Will there
be anything about this program in the
coming platfOrm

False Pronhets

The Milwaukee Sentinel and the Mil
waukee Free Press do not, in so many
words, claim this gift of prophesy but
long, long before the votes are cast
they each proclaim the greatest of all
republican victories yet recorded in
Wisconsin. ''The republican ticket
will be elected by hundred thousand"
says one of them and then the other
echoes the shout. This, of course, is
all prediction humbug and brag.
They are both in a dark alley and thus
they whistle to keep up their courage.
They shout victory but neither of them
tell why victory should perch on their
torn and shattered standards. They do
not and they cannot tell why plum
dered and outraged people should rally
around their badly smeared cause.
They well know that there is every rea-
son why the taxpayers of this state
should go to the polls and repudiate
them and their candidates. They
know that bribery and corruption has
stalked around the capitol corridors for
10 these many moons, and they know
that waste and extravaganza are the
dominant traits of nearly, if not all, the
administrations put into the capitol
building through their advocacy. They
know that there is not single reason
why their ticket should be elected, and
in their hearts they know of thousand
reasons why the whole caboodle should
be routed and repudiated by the people
and they know, too, that their defeat is
as sure and certain as that each of
them merits the chastisement and
humiliation that an indignant people
have in store for them.

Reception of Bryan.

Homer Bassford writes to the St.
Louis Republic as follows:
For ten years, off and on | have seen
Mr.. Bryan in the center of great
crowds. | have seen policeman fight a
way for him in front of the Planters
Hotel in st. Louis. | have seen similar
recourses to police recently in Michigan
boulevard, Chicago. | have observed
the American on the rear platform of a
car on campaign, speaking to shout
ing crowd while the engineer oiled the
locomotive wheels. In London this
summer, in beautiful Westminster
Hall, of the House of Lords, | saw this
simple man from Nebraska the central
figure in the politically elect of Europe,
Asia, America and the United King
dom.
have seen Mr.. Bryan the chief of a
great ships company, and in New York,
where half the town turned out to see
him, he struggled through masses of
humanity that pressed about to touch
his garment. All of which sounds like
extravaganza, but is not. Yet here to-
night, in his home town, with his chill
dren, neighbors and friends about him,
Mr.. Bryan is seen at his best
There was no word of politics in the
speech MIR. Bryan delivered from the
State-house balcony. He was welcomed
home by Mayor Brown, democratic,
and introduced-a mere formality, of
course-by the republican executive of
the State, Governor Mickey.
On the last lap of the journey through
Iowa today | asked Mr. Bryan if he
had prepared his Lincoln speech. He
smiled. "Pve thought over phrase OF
two" he said, "but they have escaped
me. 81 am so full of pride and excite
ment over the heralded demonstration
of the folks at home that l should wait
until | look into their, faces to get in
Spiration for whatever shall say"

A Bad Pair.

For some weeks past The Milwaukee
Free Press had many kind words to say
of Mi Bryan. 1t published many edi-
terials in advocacy of tariff revision or
tariff reform. 1t coddled, in the mean
time, that highly intelligent and desira-
Bile contingent, the fair minded demo-
crat, but in its issue of few days ago
it had the following innuendo
"Mr. Bryan claims the real demo-
cratic quality, coming out for the own
ership of all trunk line railroads by the
federal government, and of all the
'leavings' by the states
The Free Press has evidently no
further use for Mr. Bryan. 1t has used
Mr.. Bryans name and his stand on
certain issues for purpose, and more 5
purpose was accomplished. The Free
Press is a constituencies demagogue
and pettifogger. What Mr.. Bryan said
in regard to owning railroads is exactly
this:
81 have already reached the con-
clusion that railroads partake so
much of the nature of monopoly
that they must ultimately become
public property and be managed by
public officials in the interest of the
whole community, in accordance with
the well-defined theory that public
H. t,r. -
tition is impossible. | do not know
that the country is ready FOR the
change | do not know that ma
iority of my own party favor it, but
believe that an increasing number OF
the members of all parties see in public
ownership the sure remedy for dis
elimination between persons and
places and for the extortionate rates
for the carrying of freight and passen.
gers
1t is plain to be seen that from Mr.
Bryan's own words, which have
brought such howl from the corpor
ate interests, that he regards public
ownership of railroads a remote posi-
bility and to be resorted to only after
public regulation proves futile.
The Milwaukee Free Press is having
a great time with itself in keeping up 9
sham fight with the Milwaukee Sen
| tinel, whose owner Mr.. Pfster, with the
owner of the Free Press, Mr. STEPHENSON
a naturalization is likely to be effected
at any time if not already consumated.

Immediately south of Newfoundland
