DAVIDSON SPRINGS BOOM.
Wisconsin's Governor Would BE United
states Senator.

Madison, Wis, March 1.-THE Connor-
Davidson mine is sprung. Lieut. Gov.
William ID. Connor has made can
vass OF the legislature with a plan
for the capture of the Senatorship for the
governor, and incidentally his own pro-
motion TO the governors chair. by a
combination between the Stalwarts and
the so-caIIed Davidson-Connor factions.
With forty-seven votes, the Connor men
made a desperate struggle and pledged
10 scare up the necessary five TO insure
Davidson's election.
The FIVE are still lacking, but with the
near approach to a majority the other
candidates have been given a bad scare.
With the coming of former Speaker
F. Lenroot to-day, all the candidates
and prospective candidates for the Sen
atorship are on the skirmish line. ready
for the struggle which may come early
next week in the caucus of the Repub-
lican members of the legislature. 1t is
proposed TO clear the legislative table
OF the Senatorial question and at the
same time abide by the decision of the
attorney general, by deciding in eau
Gus upon the Republican nominee at
once and allowing the fOrmality OF an
election to wait until the resignation
Of Senator SpOoner takes effect May /.
The date of the proposed caucus is
not determined
