WHAT plp rHEY ExpEcr2

Some Of the LaFollette Republicans
are said to be aroused over the re-
marks Of Governor Osborn at the La
Toilette meeting at Lansing yester-
day. The senator was not present as
he had boarded the wrong train and
was therefore compelled to cancel his
Lansing engagement. So the governor
got up and gave the same speech he
had intended TO give IL the senator
had been right there on the platform
with him. This speech was personal
~ complimentary to LaFollette but in
cluded an arraignment Of his political
tactics, the governor declaring he has
always believed the senator chose to
make a profession Of politics and that
LaFollette has his own interests pri-
marily at heart also that the senator
has taken up those things which
might be termed popular that contain
ed the least danger to himself" such as
his fight against railroad domination in
Wisconsin in preference to taking a
stand against brewery domination in
that state.
Finally. in concluding, the governor
called upon both LaFollette and Taft to
withdraw from the presidential race in
favor Of either Col Roosevelt or Elk
Senator Beveridge Of Indiana.
Il takes a courageous man to de-
termine to talk like that with the ex-
.pectation that the man whom the re-
marks concerned was TO be only few
feet away on the same platform. But
what did the LaFollette Progressives
expect when they invited the COVER
nor TO introduce the senator? They
knew he was not a La Toilette man"
Did they expect he would think one
thing and say another? We have had
too many politicians OF that stripe. So
It's good tc see a man come right out
and show he has the courage OF his
convictions. Governor Osborn has al
ways been frank of speech. but pos
sibly the LaF0olette Progressives did
not think OF that when they invited
him to introduce the senator to a Ian
sing audience
OF course no one expects either Sen
ator LaFollette or President Taft will
withdraw from tho race just becaus,
Mr. Osborn has invited them to do so
but II shows the lay of the land in
the Republican situation. It's beginning
70 look as IL the party will have to TAX,
to Sycamore Hill If they want to avoid
being engulfed I'm Democratic flood
next November.

HOT FIGHT UNDER
WAY IN DETROIT
VIGOROUS OPPOSITION is DE-
veLoPINe TO ACCEPTANCE
OF STREET RAILWAY
ORDINANCE.

Detroit. Jan. 6.-Instead of an easy
victory at the popular election Jan %
for the Thompson street railway or
dinacc evidence is accommodating TO
support the prophesy that this city Is
en- the eve of another hot campaign
over the old traction issue, OF siren
nous character sufficient TO recall the
lurid days when HazGn $. Pingroe, as
mayor, was beginning to wrest power
from the public service corporations.
After keeping quiet for many weeks,
or since the proposed franchise agree
ment was published. "A powerful ele-
ment in the city which has been }op-
posing the street car company con-
slstently for long years. but which al
ways heretofore has been allied with
Mayor Thompson in his political bat
ties, announces that it is ready To give
up 1.-THE judicial attitude" and by way
of stating CONCLUSIONS from the var
ious arguments. il is promised, start
ling revelations will be brought forth
tending To show that the present
agreement is not the best thing for the
city and should not be indorscd by
popular vote.
Since Pingree's first fight the Detroit
United Railways company and its con-
stiuent parts have opposed granting
the demands ri the people for extern
sions. lower fares and generally better
service.
Mayor w. b. Thompson and Corpor-
alton Counsel p. ]. =. Hally, who sue
ceeded in framing UP the agreement
with President Hutchins of the car
company, have fought out many bitter
fights with the company, having as
their announced aim municipal owner
ship and popular control. They are now
lined up solidly with the ear company
In urging the adoption of this ordin-
ance.
The ordinance as passed by the COM
mon council calls for needed extern
sions of various lines. gices eight tick
cts for a quarter during rush hours
and six tickets at all ether hours,
grants till 1924 liberal franchise rights
to the company for seventy-hve miles
OF lines now operating entirely with
out franchise, and gives the people
IAN option" to buy out the whole sys-
tenn on six months notice of such in
tention to the company and in case the
voters decide they want to buy
Most puzzling are the confused en-
tanglepents of Republican, Democratic
and other political lines. In a word, the
Thompson plan is being boosted To the
