PLANNING DEFEAT
OF La TOILETTE
Wisconsin Senator Hears Ad-
miniStTation Is Backing
Opponents at Home.

Senator La FoIIette's enemies IN Wis
consln have got together on a plan for
the accomplishment OF his Senatorial
downfall This is the word which has
reached here and which has come to
the ears Of Senator La Toilette and his
friends
Not the least interesting phase Of
the situation, as the la Toilette men
describe #, is that Fighting Bob will
have the opposition OF the Administra-
ton n the struggle. The la Toilette
men assert that the influence Of PresI-
dent Taft viii be used against them.
It appears that a recent meeting OF
Wisconsin stalwart leaders was held n
Chicago and plans for the defeat OF La
Toilette talked over L was decided 70

Cook, OF Neenah, as the candidate for
The Senate 10 oppose La Toilette Gov
james O. Davidson viii be supported for
another term as governor. Senator
Isaac Stephenson was one OF the men
at the Chicago meeting and State Chair
man E A EdDunds was there. ".
D COnnor, who used to be a La Fol-
Iette supporter. and who is believed by
many to be the shreWdCst politician n
Wisconsin, was presenr.
The story told here and being widely
circulated in Wisconsin Is that q mes
sage went from Washington 70 the ef-
feet that the Administration looked on
COnnOT as the man TO take charge or
the fight, and conduct II with a view
to beating la Toilette.
In support OF the idea that la Fol-
lette viii have the opposition OF the
Administration, the La Toilette men
point TO the fact that the Wisconsin
patronage IS being given TO the stall

All the developments In the Wisconsin
situation thus far point TO a supreme
effort on the part Of his opponents in

tai Savings banks will be one
Of the most advanced steps
this country ever took, and
President Taft deserves the
deepest gratitude from this
country in his efforts to estab-
lish these banks, so that the
man with a small sum Of
money can safely deposit that
in the hands Of the govern
ment, where he will know it is
safe, and at the same time
draw small per cent interest.
This is much better than
wrapping it up in an old stock

an unqualified blessing, as it
keeps money from being

May Do Harm to Statehood

The statehood bill will become
a law this session unless the Dem
ocratic politicians of Arizona and
New Mexico send delegations to
lobby against the pending legis-
lation. The Beveridge bill, W hich
is generally regarded as the pre-
ferable bill, will pass the Senate
as soon as the railroad bill is
out of the way. The Democrats
will vote against it, but they
will be unable to prevent it's
passage.
The arrival at this juncture Of
any Democratic politicians may
prove disastrous to the state
hood cause. The Senate commit
tee positively refused to report
any bill until Mark Smith had
returned to his Kentucky home.
The general impression here is
that the rank and file of the
Democratic politicians prefer a
postponemept in the hope that
they may defeat the Republicans
for delegate.
If Mark Smith and his follow
ers come to Washington, they
must take the full blame for the
failure of the bill. Sincere friends
of statehood will persuade them
to remain at home. Tucson CT

If the effort, now in pro-
gress, to bring the farmers
and wage earners of the coun-
try together in a political or
ganization, is successful, the
old parties will have to sit UP
and take notice. Such a com

could easily wrest the reins of
government from the hands
of the plutocrats and make it,
in fact, as we'll as in name, a

When it was announced

Lorimer had been elected to
the United States Senate from
Illinois, there was a feeling of
depression at an apparent
backward step. The people
Of the country who strive
through the press to keep in
touch with public men and
measures, were expecting an
other kind of a man as Sena-
tor from that great state. Now
it appears from the confess
ions of bribe-takers that his
election was the result of
bribery and that it was scan
dalous in the extreme. There
can be no doubt that Mr.. Lot-
inner is not the proper person
to hold his seat in the United
States Senate. The most be
coming thing that he can do
is to resign. By taking such
step, he will do grace to
himself, to the Senate and to
the country.
