SENATE ENDORSES
DAVIES FOR POST
REPUBLICANS VOTE UNANIMOUS,
LY TO URGE APPOINTMENT
FOR WILSON'S CABINET.
MOVE SETS PRECEDENT
Wilson Holds Cabinet Names Until in
Office-No Announcement of Choice
for Portfolios Until He Sends Nomi-
nations to Senate.

Madison A splendid tribute to
Joseph f.. Davies, Of Madison, and an
endorsement of him for place in the
cabinet of Presideut-elect Wilson re-
suited in the senate. when a resolu-
ton, introduced by Mr.. Shower and
advocated by Mr. Bosshard. received
unanimous vote. The resolution
was treated as privileged and Sena-
tor Bosshard spoke vigorously in it's
support.
at may appear unusual said the
senator from La Crosse, for this
body of Republican senators to pay
tribute to member Of another
party. | feel, however, that we honor
ourselves and our commonwealth
when We honor the high quality,
ability and honorable standing of Mr..
Davis
Mr.. Bosshard said he had per-
sonal interest in the resolution as he
and Mr. Davies were classmates in
the university and close friends IRON
that time. In 1899 they both were
members of the university literary
society that met Minnesota in joint
debate, and were victorious. Fol
lowing their graduation, he said, each
was elected district attorney in his
county, and each has held the other
in high esteem ever since.
A dispatch from Princeton, n. j.,
says that President-elect Wilson will
make no announcement of his cabi-
net at all but will send his nomina-
tons to the senate after his inaugur-
alton. This plan he decided upon aft
err the authoritative" announce
ments from Washington that he was
to announce his cabinet tomorrow.
These Washington dispatches have
been most annoying to the president
elect. The Washington stories
printed were more than ruffling to
his temper. In response to query,
he said: II will not make any an
nouncements at all | will send the
names to the senate in the good old
fashioned way"
