who had been appointed to such an
important position as member of the

Yes, We are all swelled up about
being appointed to membership in
republican county committee. But if
you were nearly so concerned in the
success Of the party whose banner
you hide under as you are about how
few votes the members on this com
mittee received one might pay more
attention to your walls. 1t is admitted
that the voters have never taken
enough interest to cast more than a
precinct committeeman. 1t is also a
fact that those who have received
one vote apiece or so in past years
have never gotten together and or
ganized, with the result that there
has been no county party OrganlZa-

The Journals opposition to the
republican nominee for member of
assembly, G. K. Ellingson, when ev-
cry other republican paper in the
district is supporting him, was open
ly announced in it's last issue, al
though it came as no surprise. Edi-
tor Maloney's deep-seated personal
animosity for Mr. Ellingson is we'll
known and his motive in opposing
him need not be sought further.
Mr.. Ellingson has been prominent
ly identified with the progressive ele-
ment of the republican party every
since there was such thing. He
has worked hard in every campaign
and in ways that counted, for the
success of the men who have written
so much progressive legislation on
the statute books of this state dur
ing the past decade. Mr.. Ellingson
deserves more thanks for his efforts
than to have his right to the sup
port of the party he has done so
much for challenged by man who
has failed to come out in support
of any part of the republican ticket;
nor to have his progressiveness ques-
toned if he has failed to come out
enthusiastically for every proposition
advanced by the most ultra progress
ciU 10
Ellingson is in favor of or opposed to
the initiative, referendum and re-
call, which we favor, nor do we see
what concern it is to anyone. If the
people of Wisconsin want these laws
and adopt them next Tuesday, that
settles it, We'll have them. But, if
they are voted down, the verdict is
just as final.
We do know that Mr.. Filing
son believes that in some instances
the progressive pendulum has swung
little too far, but should we oppose
him for that? These views are re-
Elected in his platform and as we'll
are contained in the republican state
platform. Among other things, Mr..
Ellingson believes the water power
regulations now in force are too
stringent and believes they should be
made more liberal, which is in ac
cord with the republican plat
form. Perhaps these laws need
amending, for if they had been on
the statute books earlier no doubt
the dams that have made Ladysmith
would never have been built and
perhaps more liberal laws in this
particular will result in further de-
velopment along this line that will
mean even greater things.
AS a matter of fact, neither Mr..
Stare, whom both the Journal and
the News Budget favored in the pri-
mary campaign, nor Mr. Ellingson,
who won the nomination, were
strongly enthusiastic over every prop
osition that has been advanced under
the name of reform, nor is that any
disparagement to either Men may
be progressives and still doubt the
wisdom of some proposition that APP
peals very strongly to another. AS
to the "progressiveness" of the two,
Mr.. Ellingson's record is just as clear
as his opponents was, but had the
latter been nominated the Journal
would not have bolted this part of
the ticket, anyway. But Brother Ma
loney, like the little boy that quits
because he cannot be the batter,
quits the game when it doesn't go
Ladysmith news-budget. [volume] (Ladysmith, Rusk County, Wis.) 1907-1927, 1914-10-30

exactly to suit him and in this case
it is anything to beat Ellingson that
dominates his course.
Mr.. Ellingson has not asked the
Budget to defend him from the
Journals attack, has never solicited
any favorable comment from us re-
garding his candidacy, has never at
tempted to "collaborate' on the au-
thorship of any of the editorial mat
ter of this paper, as insinuated by
the Journal, nor would We stand for
such a thing from him or anyone
else.
But when a man of Mr.. Ellingson's
unquestioned business ability and IN
tegrity, man who has done so much
for the development of this county,
who has done so much for republican
success in the past, and who has al
ways been known as a staunch pro-
gressive, stands as the republican
nominee for the assembly on plat
form that means so much for the de-
velopment of upper Wisconsin, a
platform that pledges holding fast to
all the good that has been accom-
plished while correcting any faults
that have become evident, why
should he not receive the loyal sup
port of every republican in this dis
trict?

Brother Maloney is welcome to all

distress himself about the "collabora-

are necessary every time the News

our editorials were so unusually meri
torious on the week in question that
one would wonder where we got the

STEF ANSSON IS
NARROWED ON
ICE IN ARCTIC
EXPLORER in No Immediate DAN

WINNIPEG, Man, Sept. with

Herschell Island, according to Rev.
w. H. Fry, a missionary, who has
been among the Esquimos and who
arrived here today from Kittigagj-
Wit. Stefansson is in no immediate
danger.
Dr. Fry based his assertion upon a
letter he received. from an Esquimo
on June g. the day he started south.
The Esquimo wrote that he knew
Stefansson had left Herschell Island
and had gone out on the ice with two
of his men, Anderson (not DR.. An
derson), his lieutenant. and Storlxin-
son. The ice broke up suddenly, the
water opened up q few days later,
and the explorer and his companions
We're unable to get off. The Esuuimo
said he had been told by native whal-
ers, who had helped Stefansson on
the ice, that the party had ammuni-
ton and food sufficient to last all

BRITISH CRUISER
WARRIOR ASHORE,
BERLIN REPORTS
May Have Been Result of Fight
With Cruiser Goeben at
the Bosphorus.

WASHINGTON, Sept. IA Berlin
wireless to the German embassy
says:
British cruiser Warrior. stranded
probably as result of fight with
cruiser Goeben while escaping from
the Bosphorus."
The dispatch contains nothing to
amplify or explain.
There was nothing to indicate which
cruiser was escaping from the Boa-
phorous, or what had happened to
the Goeben The indefinite terms Of
the dispatch aroused added interest
because of the fact that the Goeben,
with the Breslau, another German
ship, after being chased by hostile
ships at the beginning of the war,
took refuge in the Dardanelles and
was later reported taken over by the
Turkish navy although 1t was un--
derstood a German crew remained
aboard.
The latter feature opened the posi-
bility of q conflict between British
and Turkish ships. In view of the
threatened entry of Turkey into the
European conflict by declaration OF
war on Russia this possibility was
regarded with added importance,

WAR GIVES LABOR
OPPORTUNITY TO
PROFIT--GOMPERS
America Will Become Clearing
House of international Inter-
course, He Declares.

pLATTSBURGH, N. Y, Sept. IT,
Samuel Gompers. president of the
American Federation of Labor, in an
address in connection with Tabor Day
ceremonies here, pointed out the OPP
portunities of American commerce
and American workers to be derived
from the chaotic conditions OF all
lines of commerce in Europe incident
to the war.
Referring to the celebration of
Labor Day this year in the week set
apart for the celebration of the ami
versary of a hundred years of peace
between the United States and Great
Britain, Mr.. Gompers said:
by some strange chance of for
tune, when the time for this cele-
bration was near, when mems
thoughts were of peace and the ways
of peace, the countries of the West
ern civilization are suddenly plunged
into a titanic struggle, a stupendous
death grapple for existence with
weapons so deadly that human lives
are being spent with mad extrava-
ganee.
"In this colossal horror that has
befallen the peoples of Europe, the
eyes and hopes of all turn to Amer
lea for sustaining aid. Our fervent
desire is that she may prove herself
worthy of the great service that lies
ahead of her.
while all the other great countries
have halted the normal interests of
life. America alone maintains her
wopted peace and friendliness toward
all mankind. America is to become
the clearing house of all international
intercourse. She has the opportunity
to become the worlds banker. Her
great power and influence are general.
Whether that power and influence
shall be used as BELTS a great and q
free people will determine her future
greatness. May she prove to the
world that there is such a thing as
interna tional morality and may she
help the warning nations back to
plane of peace and justice, is the
earnest desire of Americas workers
and all her citizens"
