MONEY IN POLITICS.

Kansas city Journal: The Topeka
Capital complacently observes that the
La Toilette movement against Mr.. Tart
seems to be abundantly financed. The
Capital says:
"A good guess would be that among
the wealthy individuals W no contribute
are Pinchot Senator Bourne of Ore
gon. Rudolph Spreckles of California,
and possibly Medill Mccormick of I'LL
nois. La Toilette has never wanted
though poor himself. for wealthy indi-
xiduals to back his political campaigns
financially. There was Stephenson OF
wisconsin, who supported the La Fol
lette movement for a time"
Correct. It is commonly reported IN
wisconsin that Senator Stephenson
spent early and late. about 100000 in
advancing the fortunes of Mr.. La Fol-
lette. While Mr.. Stephenson was pour-
ing out his money to create La Fol-
lette and La Follette's organization.
there was never any criticism about the
use of money in politics; but as soon
as Mr.. Stephenson wanted something
for himself which La Toilette was un.
willing he should have, then the ex'
penditlIre of money in carrying cam
paigns became a high crime and mis-
demeanor OF course, lavish expendi
lures in politics is an evil; and one OF
the worst things which lavish expen-
diture ever did in politics was to create
La Toilette and the La Toilette ma

yesterday afternoon and evening. Tn
ion men, their wives and children and

short talks were listened to from var.
ious labor workers, and many things
were said, that il put into practice,

speaker of the evening was Rev. Mr..
Peterson, who delivered very pleas
ant talk to the gathering, and which
was listened to with close attention.
One of the bright events of yesterday

son and his son Alvin. returned to
their home at Manfred after a week
spent in Fargo, where the latter at
tended the girls and boys institute
which is held annually for the county's
winners of industrial contests. Young
Alvin had apparently made good use
Of his opportunity, as he had followed
the instructions closely and had kept
notes on stock judging, dairying and
kindred subjects which he can make
use of for further study and practice.
Mr.. Johnson said he considered the
institute a great thing and added that
he had gained many points on things
agricultural from contact with the coll
lege professors. He expressed the
hope that Wells county would take a
more active interest in these con-
tests, so that a number of the county
girls and boys might attend each year,
as was the case with most of the
counties of the state.
