Senator La Toilette, looking more fiji

friends about the Senate chamber to-
day of the operation he underwent dur

internal trouble which for years had

recovering from the operation he had
been in fine fettle and believed he
would now be able to accomplish some
thing worth while. Senator Crane
threw up his hands when friend con-

FOLLETTE'S MOST
RECENT MISTAKE

The Journal reiterates charge made
in Milwaukee standpat newspapers that
La Toilette is to be blamed because
Justice Winslow, of our supreme bench,
was not appointed to the federal su.
preme court. 1t is assumed that if La
Toilette had visited President Taft
when requested to do so, and had re-
commended Winslow, he would have
received the appointment. To the or
binary wayfarer it would seem plain
that if the President wished any ad-
vice from La Toilette in the matter he
might have asked specific advice or
recommendation in regard to that office,
which no one claims he did. But just
for illustration, suppose La Toilette
had recommended Winslow, and he had
been appointed. Immediately the
whole standpat press, trailed by the
Journals echo, would have denounced
him for recommending a Democrat.
1t is hard to please some people, and
perhaps La Toilette manages just as
well by attending strictly to the bus
mess of legislation, for which he was
elected, and leaving the office scramble
to small fry politicians of the standpat
order.

Lorimer Of Illinois has been given the
expected coat of whitewash by the SEN
ate investigating committee, in spite Of
the fact that four legislators who voted
for him admitted that they accepted
brides and implicated three others as
bride givers. The committee reluctant
ly admits that this method is slightly
irregular, but say that they find no
proof that Lorimer was connected with
the deals 1t will be recalled that Hi
nois held primary for the purpose
of nominating U. S. senatorial candi-
dates, that A. J.. Hopkins received the
Republican nomination, that the noni-
nation was bolted by number of Re-
publican members, that various other
persons became candidates before the
legislature, that Lorimer's name was
not mentioned in that connection until
Just before the final vote, and that
finally he was elected through the
assistance Of a big bunch of Democrats,
including the four who confess to TAX
ing brides, Under these circumstances
most men would suspect some unusual
reason back of the election, but the
immaculate Lorimer never doubted
that the combination sof Republicans
and Democrats hocked to him because
of his innate goodness. What implicit
faith the truly good have!

John Christensen Of Greenwood,
suffering from some sort of ailment,

At meeting of the Wisconsin State
Grange held recently, resolutions were
adopted requesting the passage of laws
providing for state aid in highway i'm
provement, and also for a special tax
of from $40 to $25 per year on auto
mobiles, the money to be spent on high
ways. The ground was taken that as
an automobile does more to destroy q
dirt road than horse propelled vehicle,
the owner should be compelled to help
pay for the damage done.

STATE LAWS ON
INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION

INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION
All state laws bearing upon the ques-
ton of industrial education in the Uni
ted States havejust been compiled by
Prof. E. c. Elliott of the department
of education Of the University of Wis
consin and c. A. Prosser, commission
er of education Of the state of Mass
achusetts, and are published as bull
etin of the Society for the Promotion
of Industrial Education.
Wisconsin, the bulletin shows, pro
vides for industrial education in five
ways. Laws have been enacted for
the establishment of county schools of
agriculture and domestic economy, for
establishing departments of manual
arts in high schools and elementary
schools, for maintaining trade schools
in cities, for providing annual state aid
for high school departments of manual
training and for providing, through
referendum, for the esta blishing OF
technical schools and colleges by cities.

Speaking of political corruption, Ohio
has set a new mark. Down in that
land prolific of presidents and presiden-
tial candidates nearly whole county is
under indictment for election frauds
Over 700 have been indicted for being
connected with vote selling, over 200
have pleaded guilty, and the special
prosecutor declares that the work is
only fairly started. Before they get
through they will have to import men
to hold the local Offices.

ARE WE
HINCLlSh?

Commander Sims of the American
lleet now in European waters remarked
in an address at a banquet given him
in England, eff the time ever comes
when the British empire is seriously
menaced by an external enemy, it is
my opinion you may count upon every
man, every dollar, and every drop of
blood of your kindred across the seas. Z"
Since when have the American people
become so enamoured of the empire
which hired Hessians to butcher the
founders of our nation, which impressed
American seamen and instigated In
dams to massacre Americans in 1912,
which assisted the Confederates during
the Civil War. and which threatened
us with war in 1894 because President
Cleveland insisted that the British dis
pute with Venezuela should be arbitra-
ted? OF course, we should not be re-
vengeful for past misdeeds, but it is
hard to perceive why we should be
willing to pour out blood and treasure
in defense of the only nation that ever
Waged war on us or threatened US with
war without just provocation. This
loose sentiment about kindred" is
also far fetched, in view of the fact
that only a small fraction of the Amer
lean population consists of English or
the descendants of English. We should
be friendly with any nation that does
not interfere with US, and mix in no
foreign scraps.
