Mr.. Vanderlip is now swept by a

wondering If, when the agitation

has Quieted down, he win direct his
attitude to Wall Street. Few living
men know more about the inside

THE PREDATORY INTERESTS"

Senator Lafollette has definitely
allied himself and his campaign with
the worst of the predatory Inter
ests'' of Wall Street. At the very
heart and citadel of Wall Street, in
the Holy of Holes, in the inner sane
tuary, around the Altar, stand the
sugar refining companies. So closely
connected are they with the largest
banking interests there, those inter-
ests that Senator La Toilette has SO
often Numbered against, that if you
hit one you are certain to get cry
from the other.
La Follette-who poses as a friend
of the farmer, is now trying to thrust
a knife into the Wisconsin beet sugar
Wisconsin farmers cannot
raise beets in competition with sugar
cane in Cuba.
His anti Monopoly cry. is pure
bunk. He is working right into the
sugar trusts hands-and at the same
time he is striking a hard blow
directly at the sugar beet raisers of
his own state. We are now producing
in the United States one quarter of
the sugar we consume-reduce the
traiff-and it will be mortal ir Jury
to the home industry, and insure to
the benefit of the American Sugar i'm
portings interests. 1t will kill the
domestic production, competition will
then be squelched-and without COM
petition, higher prices will inevitably
carry to the consumer. Another
cash crop will be abandoned. The
factories will be idle-millions Of
dollars invested to produce home
grown sugar will be lost. He stated
in his speech last Monday. that the
tariff must be reduced. He is either
a friend or foe of the farmer. The
beet grower must decide-Menom-

Every few days somebody writes a
letter to Editor w. E. Evjue of the
Capital Times and jacks him up for
having opinions of his own and not
being afraid to express them. Then
Editor Evjue gets even by publishing
the letters. The principal fault
found with him is that he refuses Ito
stand hitched to the political hay
rack and insists on running a news
paper rather than a wheezy old
organ pumped by political machine.
We agree with Mr.. Eviue when we
want to, and disagree with him when
we prefer to, but we do admire his
independence, and his ability as we'll.
He sets the right. kind of pace for a
newspaper, and maintains standard
of principles which entities him to
the confidence and respect of the peo-
pie, whether or not his views are
their views. He is Progressive of
the old school-the kind who believe
that the people, not the machine
should rule More power to him, and
for every knock he gets there's u
boost coming later, if not along with
il. Wisconsin people are not of the
kind who will long submit to the
tyranny of that kind of politicians
who would drive out of business every

Every farmer should Hiss his wife
at least once day, pat her on the
back and tell her what good pal she
is. No matter how poor the farmer
may be, he can be considerable, kindly
and loving to the partner of his joys
and sorrows, who likes to be shown
the same little courtesies as any
other woman. There should always
be remembrance on birthdays and
Christmas, a neighborhood party once
in a while, an occasional visit to a
show, and small supply of those
indispensable toilet articles with
which a woman keeps beautiful. A
new dress now and then is appreciat-
