Wisconsin Stalwarts seem to have
troubles of their own. At a recent con-
ference at Chicago, Stephenson's man,
Edmonds, was fired, and ex-chairman
W. D. Conner was put in charge of the
organization. This action is said to
have been urged by President Taft in
the interest of harmony. Now it is
charged that Conner has loaded the
dice so that he will succeed LaFollette.

The Worlds Work tells of a maya
zine writer VINO gained access to the
city Jail at Pensacola, Florida, and found
there the NEST revolving conditions.
He secured d hall and gave a public
address, at the close of which he pic
tured to his hearers what he had seen
in their city jail. The mayor, who was
an honest man, presided at the meet
ing, which be adjourned to the city Jail,
determined that if the conditions were
not bad the city should not be mis-
judged, and if the lecturers story were
true such conditions should not contin-
ne. Public officers should not be too
harshly judged if they do not know Of
violations of the law, but when such
violations are forcibly brought to the
attention of everyone and public officers
neglect to act, they cannot be too Sc
verely condemned. They are either a
weakened lot or else they are in
league with the offenders.
