La fOLLETTE'S MISTAKE

Despite the shortcomings of Sen
ator La Toilette it should be conced-
ed that he has strong hold upon
the people of Wisconsin. Had he
openly and earnestly advocated the
nomination of either of the three
opponents of Mr.. Stephenson, as
earnestly as he Gid the election of
Mr.. Taft, we are of the opinion that
Stephenson would have been defeat
ed at the primary, and the Stephen
son-Davidson combination put out
of commission. We are not alone
in the belief that La Toilette would
have won out along that line, and
that he made mistake against his
own political fortunes in not having
taken that tack.
Not having taken advantage of
what then seemed to us his golden
opportunity his political future
seems, at this time, to be somewhat
problematical, and much will depend
upon Mr.. Stephenson's course in
the Senate. If Mr.. Stephenson shall
follow the lead of Aldrich in the
United States Senate, no combina-
ton headed by Stephenson can pre-
vent the nomination of Mr.. La Fol-
lette in 1910 to succeed himself in
the Senate. This opinion is based,
not upon preference, but upon the
fact that the Wisconsin Republicans
will stand for the policies sought to
be carried out by William H. Taft.
The two La Toilette factions now
confronting each other are just as
bitterly hostile toward each other as
they, united, were toward the stall
warts, and many of the stalwarts
are taking little interest in the con-
test, but when it comes to line up
for a Senator who will surely be for
Taft they will stand up to be
counted.

When people set out to help
others probably the dominant idea
in most cases is that of the good
they may do them. That is right
for it is an unselfsh thought. But
it is we'll TO reflect that everyone
who thus seeks to help others him
self gains by the effort he puts
forth. This comes as an encourage
ment when the work itself is dis
tasteful or when, as is sometimes
the case, the effort is not appreci-
ated.

The alleged Stephenson-David-
SON. Baensch combination proves to
have been pure fiction. Mr.. Baensch
urges that Mr.. Stephenson has for
feited any right that he might other
wise claim to election to the United
States Senate, by failing to file with
the proper official his campaign ex-
pense account. This "busts" the
race" combination so greatly
feared by Madison correspondent.

However much the banking inter-
ests of the country may deplore the
establishment of postal savings
banks that are sure to come, it must
be conceded that such banks will
contain an element of safety that
will be captivating to the people, an
element not now absolutely guaran-
teed by either State or National
banks, so far as deposits are con-
cerned.

Rabbi Silverman of New York
says that one million dollars was
spent on New Years eve in New
York for midnight suppers alone
and points to the fact that only one
hundred thousand dollars was col
lected in three days for the Italian
sufferers. This makes our boosted
American generosity look a bit
smaller,
