The Evening Wisconsin of Saturday
published page of testimonials from
men in the state, all republicans, who
testified that good times, the best we
ever had, were coming along at
enormous fast strides These men for
get that the millions of laboring men in
the United States who are without
work, and are unable to get any, are
the better judges. Those laboring men
do not speak for political effect, all they
want is a full dinner pail" and a
plenty for their families. While the
Evening Wisconsin takes up a full page
with the letters from men who are en-
joying good times" that paper on
other pages of the same edition makes
room for the publication of a number
of large failures. The time has gone
by when the voter can be scared into
voting the republican ticket by telling
him that if he does not do so he will
lose his job" or that there will be
panic" or "the times will be hard and
he can get no employment" The times
could not have been harder and more
men out of employment than during
the past year under republican govern
ment,

Hon. NEAL Brown won at the pri-
maries last Tuesday on the democratic
ticket, over Melvin Hoyt, for the United
States Senator, and the vote was about
two to one in his favor. Mr.. Brown
made clean, dignifed, honorable cam
paign. A few things were laid at his
door by his opponent, but they were
such as could have been said of any
body and utterly without foundation,
so they fell to the ground. Had there
not been a tremendous effort by the
republicans to pull votes for Isaac
Stephenson, Mr.. Browns vote would
have been much larger. Regardless of
politics, Mr.. Browns election pleased
everybody in Wausau and Marathon
county. His election means that Mr.
Brown is to be the next United States
senator from Wisconsin, for the demo
Gratis are going to win in the state this
year.

One Too Many.

The Evening Wisconsin wants to
know
Have the American people forgotten
the industrial and commercial distress
which followed the success of the demo-
cratic party on tariff or-revenue-only
platform in 1892?
One panic at time
Just now the American people have
all they can do to escape the blighting
effects of Republican prosperity to
think about the panic that followed on
the heels of the Mckinley high tariff act
of 1890
The Dingley tariff is getting in its
work. After having stimulated pro-
duction to high pitch By artificially
raising prices, the inevitable conse-
quence of checked consumption is
manifest.
Millions of workingmen are out of
employment.
The business world, which has suf
fered great distress, is anxiously await
ing the harvesting and marketing of a
large crop in hopes that the farming
community will be able to withstand
the reasonable profit" demands of the
protected industries and through it's
necessities give revival to stagnant
trade.
We have and are having prosperity
congresses to devise ways and means
20 escape the commercial distress that
has fallen on the country under repub-
lican administration and republican
high tariff.
The full dinner pail is empty.
The -four years more of prosperity"
has grown lean and gaunt.
And yet, in face of these conditions,
a republican organ would have the
American people conjure up past pan
les and add them to their overlooking
cup of bitterness.
Are the times not hard enough to
suit it Is not one panic at a time

PRIMARY ELECTION.
The Result in the State and in Marathon
County.
Hon. Neal Brown and Isaac Stephenson
Nominated for the United States Senate.

There were no great surprisesins store
for the voters at the close of the pri-
maries on Tuesday, of course the friends
of Neal Brown were anxious to know
how he Jared and the outcome in the
county excited some interest as to
Stephenson, McGovern, Cook and Hat
ton race, all felt with the money that
Stephenson had thrown into the con-
test, would have elected a Comanche
Indian instead, had it been spent in his
favor. Rumors, as to the money that
Stephenson had distributed and in what
ways would not look we'll in print,
suffice it to say, that he is said to have
won out by plurality of six or eight
thousand votes. Neal Brown swamped
Melvin Hoyt completely. having re-
ceived fully double the vote of his an
tagonist. The following are the demo-
cratic and republican state tickets
elected at the primaries, also the con-
gressional tickets:

IT Is generally conceded that II. H.
Manson will be elected chairman of the
democratic state central committee at
the democratic meeting of candidates
and managers to be held in Madison on
the fourth Tuesday in September.
1t has been announced that Mr. Man
son desires to retire, but in spite of the
fact, it is expected that John A.
Aylward, the democratic candidate for
governor who has considerable in
fluence will do his best to have Mr..
Manson remain.
On the republican side it is expected
that the selection of chairman will
naturally cause sharp contest. E. 4.
Edmonds, who managed Isaac Stephen
sons campaign is being mentioned for
the Craftsmanship by the Stephenson
faction, which will certainly oppose the
election of any other person on the
other side of the fence. Others who are
being mentioned for the position are
w. L. Essman, Perry Wilder, W. H.
Dick and w. D. Connor, the presenG
chairman
In addition to the organization CT
new state central committees the
candidates and their managers must
promulgate platform and select the
presidential electors for the state. 1t
is certain that the senatorial situation
will enter into the deliberations when
the candidates assemble. While Sena-
tor Stephenson has been elected TO
succeed himself it remains for the legis-
lature to clinch this action of the people
by his election. There is already con-
siderable talk about what may be done,

A Republican Paper Fears Demo
cratic Victory.


President Roosevelt and all who are
carefully watching the situation
throughout the country constantly get
reports from the West which are not SO
cheerful as the election result in Yer
mont. For example, letters from west
ern republicans reach tie East every
day telling of losses of votes upon this
issue or that. A republican leader in
Iowa, man of national reputation,
writes that he does not believe Taft can
get over %, 1000 plurality in the Hawk
eye state. That is such big drop from
Roosevelt's 100, 900 and McKinley's 10O,-
900 in 1900 and his $1,000 in 1896 that the
republicans who have received it natur-
ally wonder if even the $4,000 is sure
and safe. Ii things are going that bad
ly, they ask, why may they not go still
worse, once they get started? The
issue which appears to be making most
trouble for the republicans in Iowa, as
in other western states, is that of insur-
ance of bank deposits. On this the re-
publicans admit they are losing, and
they can see no way of recouping.
Their main reliance in such states as
Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Minnesota,
Wisconsin and the Dakotas is upon
their normal majorities, which they
hope ale large and strong enough to
Withstand the losses which they admit
they are suffering
Information from Indiana which
comes through republican channels is
that at the present time the state is on
an even balance between the two par
ties. A letter received in Washington
today from republican leader said
mo man can say today whether In
diana is for Taft or Bryan. We are
having trouble with the labor vote, both
as to Taft and as to Watson. We are
sure to lose something among this class
of voters, and the local prohibition
question hurts US too. AS to the labor
vote the most encouraging sign we have
is that the situation is not quite as bad
as it was, and if the improvement con
tinues we shall save the state in Novem
ber."
These and many other reports of like
character indicate that in the Wes
there are many elements of change anC
unrest and doubt, and that the cam
paign in that section is to be uncom
monty interesting. Republican conf
dence as to the East engendered by the
result in Vermont is accompanied by
increased anxiety as to the West. One
comfort they find, and that is in sitting
down and counting up how many states
they can lose in the West and still cleo
Taft with New York and the East solid
ly for him, as they believe is the case
