REPUBLICAN STATE CONFER
ENCE AT MILWAUKEE,
viii Select Slate of Candidates for
State Officers and Draw Up a
Platform for Primary.

The Citizens Republican State
conference opened at Milwaukee
Thursday in an atmosphere OF
political activity that left in doubt
the outcome Of its selection of can
didateS to oppose the so-called
LaFollette progressive republicans
II the September general election
primaries.
Delegates from every county of
the state who met at the auditorium
to pick slate of candidates for
state officers and formulate a plat
form on which these candidates
will enter the primaries, came un-
instructed and gave no indication
of what choice they would make
between the convention nominees
when balloting is commenced.
Selection of a candidate for
governor is providing the principal
interest. In this contest Attorney
General William J Morgan had an
early start but is meeting increased
opposition from former Senator
Roy 2. Wilcox of Eau Claire.
+. F. Ditmar, former lieutenant
governor, is active in the race for
the nomination of the conference as
head of the state ticket, as is
Andrew Kreutzer, former state
senator from Wausau.
Henry Johnson, state treasurer
for five years, last night announced
that he was seeking denomination
and was not interested in the CON
test for governor. He had been
mentioned as a formidable candi-
date for bead of the state ticket.
In the contest for United States
senator at the head of the full ticket
there was less activity among the
candidates. In this connection
George w. McKerrow, president
of the Wisconsin Farm Bureau
federation is prominently mention
ed Leathem Smith, Sturgeon Bay
and W. A. Garfield, president Of
Carroll college, are actively in the
race for the senate with a big fol-
lowing among delegates.
John F. Baker, assistant attorney
general and Mark Catlin, assembly
man from Outagamie county, re-
main the two leading contestants
for the nomination as attorney gen
eral on the state ticket with David
Summerville, assemblyman from
Rusk county, William Naylor,
Tomab and A. J Cobban, Madison,
as candidates for secretary of state.
Speaker Riley S. Young, Senator
w. H. Werden, Ashland, and AS
semblyman +. w. Ploetz, are can
didates for lieutenant governor.
A contest of importance is look.
ed for by politicians over the plat
form as a result of insistence of the
drys that the convention either in
clude plank declaring for strict
enforcement of prohibition, or lose
support of the anti-saloon league.
