JOHN NJ. NELSON.
EdltorinI. Wlseonsin sLato Lounal.

Editorial. Wisconsin State journal.
One of the greatest points of weak
ness in the American scheme of gov
eminent is our failure to build up real
statesmen. to recogaize them when we
have them and TO value legislators who
have the single patriotic purpose of
rendering service to the people. In our
scheme Of things we have permitted
ourselves to be buncoed by the adroit
and clever methods of great corpora
tons that have thrived on privileged
legislation. The great corporations for
years retained in the Congress of the
United States such men as Foraker.
Penrose, Lodge, Murray Crane, DePew.
Quay. Smoot. joe Cannon, jenkins.
Tawney. Payne. and others Of their
kind. making the people believe all the
while that these men were in Congress
to represent them. Big business has
always had a genius for making people
elect the representatives of big bust
ness to legislative and executive offices
and keeping them there, The people
themselves lack the cunning. the plan
ming and the scheming policies of big
business They too seldom succeed in
electing their own real representatives
in Congress.
The Third Congressional District of
Wisconsin has been exceptionally for
tunate in the last ten years in having
real peoples representative in the
lower house of Congress. We are fairly
familiar with the Congressional records
Of most of the members of the House
of Representative and we know Of no
Congressman from any state who has
more consistently voted IN the interests

WHAT LA TOILETTE. SAYS ABOUT
HATTON.


tFrom La Follette's Speech at Whitewater
1t is my desire and hope that the
electors of the state of Wisconsin will
support William II. Hatton for the
nomination for governor. Heis sound
progressive and also an able business
man who has made good in everything
he has undertaken. In his work in the
Senate we could always rely upon Hat
ton to exercise rare judgment and the
application of the widest information
in the settlement of great questions
that came before the Legislature dur
ing bis legislative career for settle
ment. He always wanted to be pro-
gressive. bot he always wanted to be
sure that in taking a step forward no
mistake would be made. In other
words, he was careful to act upon in
formation, and in the construction OF
legislation he made use of the eXper-
fence and information of men who
were known to be in sympathy with
progressive principles, and in doing
this he exercised superior tact and di-
plomacy. His work in the legislature
in securing the enactment of the rail-
road commission law stands out most
conspicuously Only by patience and
by the use Of information that could
not be disputed was Hatton able to
convince members of the Senate that
the law was a meritorious one and
finally win for it the support of these
men which made its passage possible.
Hatton will make splendid govern
or There will be no extravaganza, no
waste in his administration. Again /
say hope you will support him.

SOMETHING to be considered is the
fact that all Stalwarts are not trailing
the Republican party. The Democratic
party is shadowed by the same corrupt
corporation gang. The party with
which they affiliate is only secondary
with them. They seek first and always
power for increasing their wealth, re-
gardless of how the poor may become
poorer as a consequence. Any man
who will stand for Office at the dicta-
ton OF Stalwartism should be defeated,
as he would be only a tool If elected,
Have you noticed how the Stalwart
Democratic press supports claiming
to-be Republican who is fathered by
the Stalwart forces

HULL FOR SECRETARY OF STATE

In this corner of the state may be
found some who will ask, who is
Merlin Hull ?" To put it briefly. The
Tribune youches for Mr.. Hull being
one Of the best. brightest and most re-
liable citizens Of the state, and that
too without fear of dispute. He is edi-
tor of the Black River Falls Journal
and practices law. His craftsmanship
and untiring energy have been thor
oughly tested and he shines therein.
He not only has been elected TO the
assembly three times without opposi-
ton, but has served with distinction
as speaker Of that body. and his
record is on a par with any of the
many able legislators who have served
in Wisconsin.
Mr.. Hull is a straightforward Re
publican OF the genuine progressive
makeup, yet ever insistant on economy
and efficiency. He is the peoples de-

the business man, who wants a square

by La Toilette protects him from the
big fellows that wish to gobbie him

These men are all coming to La

Editor Tribune: In the last issue of

Moose editor overdoes himself abusing
Senator LaFollette by saying he voted
against the interests of the farmers
and miners.
do not know just how the Senator
voted on the zinc schedule in the I'm
derwood tariff bill, but when the other
bill Of a few years ago was up the
Senator refused to vote on the zinc
schedule, giving as his reason that he
was interested in zinc mines. Ism t
that commedable Who imagines the
Chronicle man would not be "whooping
her up" for his personal welfare if
placed in like position?
Iowa county has been a LaFollette
stronghold with no good reason for re.
gret, and this year, in view of the rank
Stalwartism of his opponent. it should
be stronger than ever. The Chronicle
boasts of having a list of four thous-
and subscribers, mostly all within the
county, and think a majority of them
are LaFolette supporters among whom
there is some pretty tall thinking, such
as is not very favorable to the editor
of the Chronicle, after reading his
rawlings.
! hold nc brief for the Senetor. but !
will say that Wisconsin and the people
of the country as a whole cannot have
a better representative in the United
States Senate than r. NJ. LaFoIlette.

its respects to Thomas D. Jones. The
editor of that sheet may be an able man,
when compared with some men we
know, but when you size him up with

TAXES the past year were higher in

defense Of the charge that his admins
tration was notable for it's extrava-
gance, and he continues by saying:
Perhaps we would not have been
extravagant if we had turned the state
over to the railroads and the special
interests, if we had demolished the tax
and railroad commissions, rendered
useless the income tax law which dis
tributes taxes according to the ability
of the citizen to pay.
Perhaps it would have been consider
ed economy if we had made the work

for the workingman, robbing him of
his just returns under the law, thus
saving money for the big manufactur-
