LAFoLLETTE's VICTORY.
(New York World.)


The recommendation of Senator La
Toilette at the primaries in Wiscon-
sin by a 25,000 majority over con-
servative republican will cheer the re
actioniaries of his party almost as much
as the nomination last week of Gov.
Hiram johnson for the United States
senate at the republican primaries in
California. Both are equally hated by
the standpaters.
johnson, an enrolled progressive, in
1912 and 1916, has proved at the polls
that he dominated the republican par
ty in California. La Toilette, who as
a radical republican, outclasses the Cali
fornian, after serving three terms as
governor of Wisconsin and having
twice been elected to the senate, cas-
lily wins the nomination again in the
face of the most violent opposition.
Two years ago when +. l.. Phillip
was elected governor of Wisconsin it
was generally taken to mean that the
republicans of the state had repudiat
ell La Toilette The avowed purpose
of Phillip, as the choice of the re-
dictionaries, was to undo much of the
work initiated by La Toilette and his
followers. The people of the state
were supposed to be tired of radical
ism and advanced policies and ready
to sink back into the slough of old
fashioned republicanism. 1t may still
be so. Phillip has been renominated
for governor after accomplishing less
than he promised, but La Toilette,
whose political end was celebrated in
1914, has come back to life as vigorous
as ever
The results in the California and the
Wisconsin primaries carry a plain warn
ing to the republican party. 1t is easy
to dismiss La Toilette and johnson as
merely local characters and represent
ing purely sectional conditions. But no
between men of their type
and the Penroses and Smoots as lead
ers of republican senate would be

SOCIALISTS WILL
SPRING SURPRISES
Say They VIII Elect Six Con-
gressmen, and Senator
from Nevada

Chicago, Sept. Socialists will
spring several surprises at the Novem-
Der election, according to }. l.. Eng
dahl, editor of the American Socialist,
here today. Among them are the elec
tion of six new congressman; re-elcc
tion of Congressman Myer London of
New York; winning of Oklahoma and
Nevada, the latter meaning the clec
tion of the first socialist United States
senator; polling of two million votes;
election of 100 socialists to state legis-
latures.
"'The socialist vote in 1912 went up
100000 and nearly TO the million
mark, . Engdahl said. Literature, and
daily speeches by Allan l.. Benson, pres
idential nominee, are going to swell
the socialist vote surprisingly. We hope
to send two congressman from New
York, two from Milwaukee. Debs from
Indiana and three from Oklahoma in
districts which we almost carried in
l914.'

We have writers whose books are a
terrible bore,
For they write the same thing they
have written before.
The thread of their thought was once
flowing and stout;
They neglected to spin, and the bobbin
ran out.
The party at work on the garments of
state,
Refusing to spin live question, its
fate,
That moment is sealed; though the
wheel turns about,
With motion defiant, the bobbins runs
out.
There are skeptics who once in the
Bible believed,
But now they declare they were sadly
deceived;
They followed the fashion to bubble
and doubt,
And everyone knows how the bobbin
ran out.
There are leaders in prayer, who are
oft led astray,
And they preach at the people for whom
they should pray;
You can Cell as they stumble and an
der about,
Their thread is exhausted-their bob
bin run out.
When the preacher descends in the
flow of discourse,
From the pure and sublime to the vul-
gar and coarse;
When he pounds on the Bible and raises
shout,
You may know at that moment his
bobbin s run out.

Rich Strike Made
In Dormant Mine

Boise, Idaho, Sept. 29.-Official an
nouncement is made by r. N. Bell,
state mining inspector of Idaho, of
what is characterized as the richest
gold quartz strike ever made in Idaho
The strike was made at Atlanta, so
miles from Boise, one of the 50.year-
old camps, which has lain dormant for
nearly 20 years, after the early day
miners cleaned up several millions in
free milling ore and quit work when
they got to the levels where the quail
ity became refractory The strike was
made in crosscut go feet above the
main deep level.
The bonanza pay streak, from two
to ten inches thick, has been opened
for a distance of 2S0 feet to a faced
depth of $50 feet. 1t samples more
than $1,000 ton, and cross-section
average samples from two to three
feet wide face give results of from
5000 to $500 u ton. Hand specimens
can be picked out showing bands of
solid gold fully half an inch thick.
The discovery is at the deepest hori-
zon ev'r penetrated on the Atlanta
lode, l090 feet ltlpw the highest crest.
1t is likely that within month a
carload of choice sacked stuff will be
shipped that will match some of the
picture values in gold that made Grip
pie Creek and Goldfield famous as
bonanza camps.

MIR. BARRY's CONFESSION,



A statement sent forth over the
signature of David Barry, publicity
manager for the Hughes campaign,
boasts that New York bankers will re
fuse to loan the Carranza Mexican
government money that is needed in
order to restore order and rehabilitate
that country,
Without intending to do so Barry
has Diet the cat out of the bag. He
confirms the suspicion that Mexico's
troubles originated largely in New
York. If the New York bankers are
IMPOSING financial boycott on Car
ranza it is first class evidence that
the chief trouble with Carranza is
that he is trying to do his duty by
Mexico-rather than by Wall Street.
If he were Huerta, ready to take or
ders from Mexico's plunderers he
could get plenty of New York money.
The delight of Mr.. Barry over the
situation is also significant. 1t is
evident that the Hughes forces do not
want peace in Mexico. They would
prefer to see the turmoil continue. The
more the better. 1t is good politics for
tnem, though poor patriotism.
But what does the country think OF

TRYING TO ESTABLISH
NAME FOR MOUNTAIN
Tacoma Wants to Wipe Mt.
Rainier OF Map by
Process Of Law

Tacoma, Wash, Sept 29.-Legislative
action is going to be sought in an eff
fort to settle the 40 year controversy
between Tacoma and Seattle regarding
the name of the l4,40S foot volcanic
park in the southwest corner of ierce
county.
1t was announced today that Senator
Walter 5. Davis would introduce in the
upper house and Representative j. FL.
Davis in the lower house a memorial to
the Washington, d. c., authorities re-
questing that the name Rainier" be
abolished.
Every member of the Pierce county
delegation and every candidate for a
seat on that delegation is reported as
standing ready to vote for the measure
The naming of the park rests with
the national geographic board. The
name of the national park in which it
stands is designated by congress.
The Pierce county opponents of the
name Rainier declare it should be re-
moved because it was bestowed in honor
of an alien enemy, an admiral who new
er even saw the peak.
They propose that "the correct abor-
iginal name" be submitted, leaving the
determination of what that name is to
the geographic board.
The advocates of change assert
that there is much more to be accomp-
lished than merely settling long and
childish inter-city quarrel, inasmuch as
the question has real dollars and cents
aspect.
One part of the state is now spending
great sums of money advertising the
tourist attractions of +" Mount Taco
ma, while the rest of the state is
spreading with equal zeal the wonders
of "Mount Rainier.' In the meantime
the poor, confused tourist back east is
laboring under the delusion that there
are two mountains and he doesn t know
where to go.
When in this city recently r. B. Mar
shall, chief geographer of the United
States, said he thought the application
of =" Rainier" to the great mountain an
offense against good taste and re-
Election on people IS intelligence and pa
triotism. He suggested the memorial by
the legislature, and said he was sure the
geographic board would change the
name if given such warrant.

Little Rock, March 25.--A large number of depot matters will be taken up by the Arkansas railroad commits sion at it's meeting to be held on April 5.
 The legislature of 1915 passed law requiring the Iron Mountain to erect a station at Russellville, but the citi- zens are unable to agree upon a site. The railroad company is ready to build the depot when the people get together on the location. Now the commission has been appealed to as a compromise, and will select the site.

 Fighting in rough, inhabited coun- try. with irregular and elusive troops, IS just the sort of thing for which the United States army is noted. Many of the leaders of the present expedi- tapn have given notable proof of their fAQess for this kind of work.
