Is FOR LA TOILETTE
Secretary of Wisconsin Repub-
lican Conference Says Labor
Groups Raised 1t.
HE CALLS SENATOR WET
Elaborate Propagandism to
Elect Radical Ticket Declared
Already Effective.

Special Dispatch TO THE New YORK Herald
MILWAUKEE,. Aug. a1.-State Senator
George B. skogmo. secretary OF the Citi-
zens State Conference issued state !.
ment charging that huge sums were being
spent In the campaign to elect Senat or
La Toilette and his ticket at the
primaries
1T has been brought TO our atten-
tion," said Senator Skogmo that hun
dreds of thousands OF dollars are being
spent in certain quarters in an attempt
to carry the primaries for the radical
slate headed by La Toilette.
Much OF the money is being put up
by certain labor groups. including the
railroad brotherhoods, according to our
information. This Is borne out by a
recent publication of four page news
paper. entitled Labor, and according TO
its own statement owned and controlled
by sixteen associated standard railroad
labor organizations. 1t is declared to be
their official Washington weekly news
paper. Practically the entire issue
under date of August 5, Is devoted &c
lauding La Toilette. and a minor amount
OF space is devoted TO the rest OF the
radical ticket. On the first page Is TO
be found a three column picture OF the
senior Senator.
THAT is expensive propaganda and
Will undoubtedly take a huge sum TO
print and circulate.
Another instrument OF propaganda IS
the publication known as The Champion
Of Fair Play, published in Chicago and
declared to be an official paper of the
Veterans Of Liberty OF America. The
publisher of this paper is given In Its
own columns as Robert J. Halle. who
is also well known as the secretary OF
the National Retail Liquor Dealers As
ISOLATION. La Toilette Is lauded in the
highest terms, and 1t is declared that he
can be depended upon at all times to
support the vets.
"On the first page Is a picture OF
La Toilette with the designation The
Wet Senator from Wisconsin This, too
is expensive propaganda. Thousands OF
dollarss are being spent for literature

Such a map would be an unbal-
anced picture from the artists point
of view, / am afraid. From the edu-
GATORS point of view it would seem a
very uneven distribution. The outline
would be top heavy in the extreme in
the far northeastern corner of the
states, for the little commonwealth
of Massachusetts has specialized in
learning. In it are some of the most
famous schools of the country.
One of them is Smith College,
which has put the city of Northamp-
ton on the map, and added to it win
ter population of little over two
thousand students.
Last year, every state in the union
with the exception of Oregon was re-
presented. One of the girls told me
the other day that Smith was noted
for it's Democratic spirit. With prac-
tically every state represented it
should be truly American. The snob
spirit is relic of feudal days, and a
revival Of old world distinctions be-
tween nobility and peasant.
The modern school is a democratic
government on small scale, with, it's
president the chief executive, and
the dean, next in power. Then there
is the student government council,
which corresponds to the Congress
and Senate. This body of representa-
tives selected by the students from
the different classes, has great pow
er. Thus the institution has govern
ment by the students, of the students
and for the students.
The history of school government
is very similar to that of national
govrnment. In the early days, the
school was an autocracy with the
teachers as absolute monarchs, and
the students, their vassals, eager to
make all the disturbance they could,
because they were being continually
watched. The JOY of breaking a rule
was much more exhilirating than the
punishment for wrong doing was en-
barrassing.
Nowadays, the instructor in charge
is very apt to leave a class room du-
ring an examination. In former years
the student was closely observed.
All impetus to right doing should
come from within, and so long as the
individual fears punishment from an
other, more than he fears the lower.
ing of his own ideals, just so long
will he be an underling. 1t used to be
easier for group of people in au-
thority to suspect students under
their jurisdiction than it was for that

WASHINGTON LETTER
BY ]. E. Jones.

PUBLIC" IN THE GRANDSTAND
No executive of the Nation has
ever worked harder to find way to
restore peace and order in the in
dustrial world than has Presiden
Harding. His methods have been
wholly unlike those of his illusItrious
predecessors, and there has been an
absence of the .sbig stick" policy of
Roosevelt, the passive attitude of
Taft, or the spirit by which former
President Wilson sought to affect
compromises. President Harding
has been tolerant and forbearing
with the different parties in the rail
and coal strikes, but the outstand-
ing feature in his position has been
an insistance that industrial dis
putes should be settled in court.
Obedience to the decisions of the
Railroad Board and the Interstate
Commerce Commission has consti-
tuted the basic principle for the
Presidents position. He has, IN
short, tried to "put teeth" in the adj
ntinistrative machinery that seeks
to voice The position of the public
when laoor and capital go to the mat.
While the House of Representa-
tives was recessing there was an
abundance of newspaper speculation
growing out Of Washington political
gossip to the effect that when both
branches Of the national Congress
again got into full swing that there
would be legislation presented and
passed" to prevent strikes. Congress
is again in full session and the
witness the performance OF its mem
bers concerning the demands that
country has had an opportunity TO
they ''do something, and do it now!"
Thoughtful people differ about the
rights of labor and capital, and
nearly all people who couldn't strike

BAYFIELD,
From Bayfield, Press


Most impressive were the services
held last Friday afternoon at the
Masonic Temple ON Second ST., dur
ing the burial ceremony of DR.. Henry
Hannum, who passed away Wednes-
day at Muskegon, Mich, and whose
body was brough to his old home
Thursday for interment.
Surrounded by great throng of
old friends assembled to pay final
tribute to their beloved friend, de-
ceased lay in calm sleep unmirdful
of the many tear-dimmed eyes of men
and women whose hearts feel SO deep
| ly the passing Of man whose many
great kindnesses, sacrifices, beneyo-
lence and earnest endeavor had oft
times brought them peace, joy, hap
piness and confidence.
Typical Of the older school Of fam
lily physician, DR.. Hannum shared the
sorrows, the pleasures, the successes
and the reverses of scores of people
in this community of which, through
so many years, he had become vital
part. His was disposition seldom
equalled, whose ready wit, constant
humor and smiling encouragement IS
always to remain cherished memory
and an inspiration for good which is
indeed the most wonderful heritage
man is capable of leaving here with
those whom he bids farewell.
Big-hearted, sturdy and true blue,
without an enemy among his fellow
men, he was ever the same old doc
to man and woman, boy and girl, well
come wheresoever he went

Well-established systems OF live
stock production consistently followed
from year to year are the outstanding
needs of the livestock industry, acL
cording to conference Of animal
husbandry and marketing extension
workers held at Chicago. Economy of
production, the conference agreed, is
the most important factor over which
farmers have control. Producing live
stock of the best quality at the lowest
possible cost was urged and particu-
lar emphasis was placed on economy
of production rather than increased
production as the key to prosperous
industry.
Among the controlling factors in
economical livestock production, In
the Judgment of the conference, were
selection of animals, choosing of ra-
.tions and good practices in care and
management. Delegates to the con-
ference included United States De-
partment of Agriculture specialists
and animal husbandmen and extension
workers of agricultural colleges in the
I Central West.

AN ardent La Toilette supporter,
when asked the other day TO point to
some one measure of interest to the
common people that La Toilette had
recommended ard fought for during
the past six years in the Senate,
failed to mention anything of im-
portance, but did say that La Toilette
in the Senate was like flea to dog,
it kept the dog busy thinking about
his other troubles. Does Wisconsin
want men in the Senate who do
nothing but criticize the work of
others? Would it not be better to
have two men in the Senate fighting
for the interest of Wisconsin?
Think it over!

mighty busy endeavoring to explain
to his readers the reason for the
numerous law suits started against
him during the past two years, which
he says are sham law suits. 1t
seems rather peculiar that others are
not troubled in like manner. With
Peavey as Mayor during the past two
years, the city has been continually

strange that the perpetual candidate

else wrong, and that people just have
mania for starting law suits. But
