yer appeared before Governor Philip
yesterday in behalf of convict ap-
pealing for a pardon. He told the
governor of the mans virtues in such
forceful terms that one wondered how
he happened to be in Waupun instead
of in a monastery.
"And the poor wife at home" he
pleaded with tears in his voice. His
poor wife, her home broken and her
life wrecked because of this terrible
misfortune that has come to her. She
is praying for his return"

tial preference.

tial preference.
3. Governor Philip polled above
rs, 900 votes as delegate at large.
The first item means that Wiscon-
sin voters are back of President Will
sons preparedness program. The Sc
cond item means that Senator La Fol-
lette is a long way from being the po-
litical corpse that his political OPP
ponents would have one believe. His
vote, however, is neither a total en-
dorsement of his presidential aspir-
ations, a backing of the senator's
stand on the embargo, or a testimony
of his personal popularity. 1t is a
combination of the three. 1t is also
evidence that Senator La Toilette will
be Wisconsin's choice for U. S. Sem
ator next fall without turning a wheel.
The third item is testimony to the
fact that Governor Philip is gaining
strength in Wisconsin, and, unless
some new alignment is made in the
forces Of this opposition may win the
next gubernatorial campaign.
