State Ticket Named at
Milwaukee Convention

CVIiic S0AcS sSuAuuutiuS W VScE $At-
100000 have been withheld. Having
the power, we condemn him for his
failure to institute actions to re-
cover taxes frandulently withheld
and the penalties imposed for fraud
in making such return and we call
on him to institute such actions.
We demand the vigorous prosecu-
ton under the criminal laws, Of those
who were guilty Of defrauding the
government through wartime con-
tracts, enabling them TO enrich them
selves when the great mass Of our
people were sacrificing to carry on
the war.
Demand Bonus Law
We applaud and commend the
young men Of this state who were
enrolled in the service of their coun-
try. No more splendid response to
patriotic duty is found on the pages
Of history.
Tens Of thousands Of our Wiscon-
sin boys were called upon to oppose
an enemy nation related 10 them by
blood ties, but, as true Americans,
they rallied to the support Of their
native land
We favor the most liberal treat
ment Of these soldiers. We demand
the passage of satisfactory adjust
ed compensation act by congress.
We charge that Senator Robert M.
La Toilette was not true to his coun-
try in the time Of its extreme need
and peril; that he failed to.act when
patriotic action was Imperative; that
by his public utterances and open
opposition to participation in the
World war he has shown himself un-
fit to represent Wisconsin. We be-
lieve the vital and burning issue Of
This day and this year in this loyal
state Of Wisconsin is to efface and
forever eliminate the shame and dis
grace that became attached to this
great commonwealth Through the
dis1oyalty of Senator La Toilette.
Condemn La Toilette War Record
We approve Of the following re-
solution that was adopted by our
legilature on Mar. 6, 1918: ss
1--WE, the people Of the state Of
Wisconsin, always have stood and
always win stand squarely behind
the national government in all things
which are essential to bring the pre-
sent war to q successful close, and
we condemn Robert M. La Toilette
and all others who have failed to
see the righteousness OF our nations
cause who have failed to support
our government in matters vital to
the winning Of the war, and we de-
nounce any attitude or utterance Of
theirs which had tended to incite se-
d7tion among the people o6 our coun-
try and to injure Wisconsin's fair
name before the free people OF the
world"
We condemn to the very utmost the
shameful, un-American act OF Gov.
John ]. Blaine i'm permitting the use
Of the state capitol building for q
public speech by Kate Richards
O'Hare, who was tried, convicted and
served time in . federal peninten-
tjhry for gross violation Of the
espionage act during the war.
We are determined that this or
ganization shall be permanent. We
invite our citizens to enlist in this
work actively and to give us the
best that is in them both Of brain
and Of energy.
