MADISON, Wis, Aug. 4.-That
Presidnt Taft's conservation pol
icy Is the same old "Ballinger-
ism" is the charge made In the
current issue of LaFollette's
Weekly, published today. The
magazine reviews the recent spe-
cial message on the Controller bay
land grants and after asserting
that the president admitted all
the facts, comments as follows:
This is the meaning of Taft's
statement regarding Controller
bay. The Pinchot- Roosevelt con-
servation policy, contemptuously
discarded at the beginning of the
Taft administration, is still dis
tasteful to the president. These
lands skirting Controller bay
should never have become open to
private individuals. That is the
essential fact In the controversy.
The manner In which Taft allow
ed Richard s. Ryan to get foot
hold at that strategic point illus
trates Taft's methods. Taft ad-
mits the essential facts. He let
the land go. That is the import
ant thing. What induces him to
let 1t go in an unusual manner to
these particular candidates, the
present Investigation may dis
close"

One thing about the standpat
gang is that they never learn any
thing.
Despite the uprising of the peo-
pie against them, they are still
playing the same old game Mark
Hanna taught them.
Now they'll go back east and tell
everybody that Washington has
become standpat over night SIM
ply because B. w. Coiner fixed
up his quarrel with Sammy Per-
kins, and because two men made
Sammy national committeeman in
place of the late r. l.. Mccormick.
Take Themselves Seriously.
And they take themselves ser
iously-these four men who will
tell the country that because they
are standpatters, that we are all
standpatters-every last one of
us in Washington.
They are the people-isn't it
funny?
OF course nobody cares much
what they did yesterday-any
more than the people cared when
the same gang held a standpat
convention here last summer and
denounced Poindexter and the
progressive movement. The peo-
pie went ahead and voted as they
pleased.
All Sammy will have to do will
be to handle the national COM
Imittee money here In the state
next year-fOr Taft.
Though money doesn't cut SO
much ice here any more now that
we have the direct primary, as
John L. Wilson and Judge Burke
learned last fall.
But It was funny. that election
yesterday.
In the first place the executive
committee has no more business
electing a national committeeman
than the chamber of commerce
has. They just assumed that Job.
But once assumed, 1t would
seem right to have the full COM
mittee of nine men do it..

COiner had no more rgiht to
call that meeting than william j.
Bryan had. He is not member
of the executive committee.
There was just one man there
yesterday who represented the
real political sentiments of the
people of Washington. That was
o. G. Moore of Spokane, Poin-
dexter supporter.
Moore Walked Out.
Moore when he saw what the
deal was walked out of the meet
ing. That made no difference.
Coiner pulled out a couple of
proxies and with two men and two
proxies, out of the committee of
nine, he held the election.
Same old game they've always
worked.
Coiner used to be fighting Per-
kins. But Coiner wants to be
U. 8. district attorney. 'If you'll
help me, I'll help you," the same
old agreement was made.
And Sammy was elected.

Death from a fall from the
third story of the Homewood ho-
tel, 1345 South d street, was the
verdict of the coroner's jury re-
garding the death yesterday after
noon of William Egan, a peddler
of water faucet filters. While In
a half crazed condition caused by
overindulgence in liquor, Egan
threw himself to the ground forty
feet below. He fell upon his left
side, sustaining a broken wrist
and leg, and fracturing three ribs.
There were other internal injur-
les. The police believe 1t was a
deliberate intention to end his
life, as the door was bolted from
the inside. He is survived by a
sister and daughter In Portland,
Ore. and a brother in Seattle. He
was AZ years old.
