LAFOLLETTE VOTES
PLACED ON RECORD
In Republican State Convention
Last Wednesday.
Radical Platform Adopted and Every
Legislative Candidate Pledged
for the Senator's Reelection

Madison Wis, Sept. %. The re-
publican platform as adopted by the
convention today, praises La Fol
lette and the Wisconsin progressives
and declares the Payne Aldrich
tariff law does not fulfill party
pledges. The present tariff board
is declared inadequate. The railroad
law should be amended to allow the
physical valuation of railroads.
The income tax is favored; also ma
tiOnal control of national resources.
On the tariff the platform says:
The Payne Aldrich tariff is not in
compliance with the pledge of the
republican party in it's national
platform The true basis of protec-
tive tariff is the difference between
the cost of production at home and
abroad, and we hold any increased
cost of production due to higher
wages and the standards of living of
American labor should be accom-
panied by compromising tariff duties.
The present tariff board has no
power of investigation and is not re-
favor the creation Of non bipartisan
tariff committee empowered to acer-
tain the cost of production IN this
and other countries, and required to
make frequent reports; on the infOr-
NATION so obtained congress should
proceed to revise the different
schedules independently of each
RI vyO
tariff principles"
The plank on trusts declares in a
general way that the laws against
the trusts should not be changed,
until the people have regained
control of the government" 1t
declares the absence of antitrust
laws has been productive of unjust
Inequalities and powerful monopol
les which control the money and
credit of the country have defied
the laws and crushed competition
and suppressed unions and cO-opera-
tive efforts Of wage earners.
Every legislative candidate pre-
sent pledged himself to stand by
the result of the primary and vote
for Senator La Toilette to succeed
himself in the u. S. senate. Those
who were not present will be polled
and expected to record their pledge
to the same effect.
Edward Gichman, BarabOo, and
Duncan McGregor, Platteville, are
the members of the republican state
committee for this congressional
district. The new chairman is
Henry Krumrey, of Plymouth, and
the secretary is VIM. l.. Essman, of
Milwaukee.

DR.. TIMMONS TO

IN SPITE OF EFFORT To- SUP
PRESS HIM, NOTED LECTUR-
Err WILL SPEAK.

1t is altogether probable that DR.. E.
A. Timmons, of this city, will take the
stump for Patterson at an early date.
This fact has, it is understood, been
the cause of some friction in the local
Patterson camp. 1t is known that
some of the local Patterson leaders
have urged Mr.. Timmons MOTTO. make
any speeches, although upon what
grouds cannot be ascertained. Mr..
Timmons stated yesterday, however.
that he expected to make some
speeches and intimated that he had
given certain local leaders OF his
faction to understand that they could
not control his political actions. The
Doctor is a man of decided convic-
tions and it is practically certain that
he will be often heard on the hus-
tings between now and the ides of
November.
DR.. Timmons is especially we'll
equipped to defend the Patterson tick
ct. AS member of the platform COM
mittee of the recent State conven-
ton he practically drafted the proht
bition plank of that document, GER
tainly the dominant issue of the Fat
terson campaign. Dr. Timmons is
forceful speaker. His fame as iec-
turer Is not circumscribed by coun-
ty lines, and his celebrated book on
Love, Courtship and Marriage" has
given him a reputation as an author
that is almost nation wide. DR.. Tim

J. Curry Vaughan, Of Lebanon, a

in Columbia Friday. and while here
discussed the political situation in
Wilson county.
There is no doubt as to how Wilson

Carmack the biggest majority In the
state in proportion to population and
will give an equal majority to the
Free judiciary ticket" in August. In
addition to that, If q good Republican
runs for governor in November he viii
receive the accumstomed Democratic
majority. The Republicans Of Wilson,
that is the better class of them, are
against Patterson and opposed to Pat
tersonism. The negroes will vote for
the governor, but as they voted for
him before their ballots won't count
as strongly in the finals as many Of
the administration supports now be-
lieve."
