I'd wide speculation as to whether the
governor would name another new
man to take the place OF Mr. Harlowe
The friends Of Mr.. Harlowe thought
&c might be retained for the reason
that Mr.. Philip might be adverse to
placing two new men on the board.
The governor cleared up this specu-
alton very early by naming Mr.. Alex

Blumenfeld, Watertown, as superin-
tendent of public property, place for
which there was large field OF candi-
dates.
The non-partisan angle of appoint

bv the naming of Mr.. Alexander of the
railroad board. When the appoint
ment was announced members of the
legislature Immediately raised the
question of whether Mr.. Alexander is
y republican or a democrat Accord
ing TO his own statement, the Milwau--
ket man voted for President Wilson
for president, and in the last election
voted for Mr.. Phillip for governor, and
Paul o. Husting, democrat, for United
States senator.
The very important matter Of in
vestigating state boards and commits
lions with view of cutting down the
,ost of government in Wisconsin is
nder way. A great deal Of feeling
as aroused over the Axel Johnson
olution to have this probe conduct
by a subcommittee of the joint
1mmittee on finance. This led to the
digestion that the work should be
ansfered to the state board Of public
fairs. Administration senators OBJ
cted to this suggestion on the ground
at legislature should not attempt to
lift responsibility in a matter of such
