dairying, and there is strong
feeling throughout the district that
a farmer or dairyman should rep
resent the same in congress rather
than lawyer, who would not work
for their interest to the same extent
as one of their own number.
The question of politics is not so
much involved as the welfare of
the farming and dairying interest
and the necessity of having a rep
resentative in congress who is
thoroughly acquainted with their
needs and will work and vote for
such legislation as will be beneficial
to them and oppose such as may
be harmful if not destructive of
such interests.
Henry ]. Grell is a farmer and
dairyman and conversant with every
phase of the questions in which
the farmer and dairyman is inter
ested, and knows what legislation
to favor or oppose in behalf of the
paramount interests in the district.
He is an able and popular gentle
man who, should he be elected
would make a working member of
the house and vote right on all
questions effecting the interests of
his constituents and no one would
have cause for regret.

That Resolution of CenSure.

For peanut politics, jackasstical
insincerity, and idiotic inconsist-
ency, majority of the members
of the United States Senate, il
is the limit. After voting to de-
clare the seat occupied by William
T.. Lorimer vacant, they turn
around and adopted a resolution
censuring President Taft because
he had, in conversation with some
of sthe members of that distin-
guished body of nopenities, advised
the unseating of Lorimer, who is
as good as many, if not all of
them. Had those who voted
against the Lea resolution to fire
Lorimer from the senate, voted for
a resolution censuring the Presi-
dent, it would have been proper
and consistent, but the vote of
censure by the enemies of Lorimer
was simply for political effect with
out reason or gratitude. In the
judgment of the writer, Taft was
foolish in his attitude toward the
discredited senator, but as an indi-
vidual, had the right as a citizen
and official, to express himself on
any subject of interest and the
senators who voted for the resolu-
ton under consideration, would
serve the country better by pitch
ing manure in some barnyard.

Be Honest or Resign.

The editor of the Milwaukee
Journal is eminently sound in the
position he takes that the Republi-
can electors should vote for Taft or
resign. To do otherwise would be
contemplate and dishonest. They
were chosen as Republicans by Re-
publicans and if they cannot con-
sistently and conscientiously vote
for the presidential nominee of the
party which chose them, they
should have the decency and man
hood to retire and let the party be
represented by men of that political
faith. Should they remain and
vote for Roosevelt they would not
be Republicans but renegades and
Senator LaFollette woul d n t
thank them for voting for him.
They would place themselves upon
the same level as did Governor
McGovern and Henry Cochem in
the Republican national convention
at Chicago, when they proved re-
creant to the interests of the man
they were chosen to represent,
which was condemned by the polit-
ical friends and foes of Senator La
Toilette.
