BEHIND THE POLITICAL SCENES.

La Toilette to carry SIX Of the con-
gressional districts of Minnesota.
This is the surmise made by Charles
Cheney Of the Minneapolis Journal.
Cheney is just home from Chicago
where the La Toilette people met in
big numbers and endorsed the Wis
consin senator. This Chicago affair
should not be taken as criterion
because the gathering was as clearly
and decisively packed as any ever
held.
So his strength can't be gagged by
that.
There is La Toilette campaign
of some pretentions on in this state
with Moses E. Clapp as the big noise
but it is difficult to say just what
progress it has made.
It's not altogether surprising to
discover that good deal of this
work is receiving the Endorsement
of the Democrats.

mighty patronage, doubtless too
great for any one man to carry. 1t
that be so how shall the members of
this mighty, arbitrary, uncontroll-
able body be appointed?
If they are servants of the people
shall not the people have a voice in
their selection?
Have President Taft's appoint

the confidence of the people in the
wisdom of the constitution that
gives him this power?
Justice Harlan was man for the
outdoors, and particularly fond OF
golf. He frequently played with a
noted eastern bishop. of whom the
following bright story is told.
The Justice and the Bishop were
on the links one day and Harlan
drove first. 1t was wobbly stroke
and the ball flew far out of the
course. The Justice said things nei-
Their polite nor religious. The
Bishop merely smiled and SAID:
cut, tut, Mr.. Justice, you know
swearing won't help a bad stroke. Z
The Bishop had even worse luck
digging his iron into the dirt and
breaking the handle while the ball
was lost in clump of woods. For
minute or two the Bishop stood
leaning on his broken club, saying
nothing. There, you see, didn't
swear, he said to the Justice.

What are the six. Charlie?
Evidently the SIX outside of the
three city districts. Taft has sacri-
feed the country to win the cities
and the cities forgetting that there
is and must be an intimate relation
between the cities and the country
if each is to prosper, have joined
hands against the farmer.
While the farmers are not agree

neither are they consenting to take
down La FolIetteism at gulp. No
matter what La Toilette has done in
Wisconsin he is distinctly not pop
ular man in more than one or two
of the congressional districts of this
state. La Toilette has made serious
mistakes and these are not forgot
ten.

more likely to accept a Democrat
