NOW DECLARE BLAINE
IRENOUNCE LAFOLLETTE
Comings Party See New Break in His
Endorsement of Dammann for
Secretary of State.

Madison, Wis. Governor Blaine's
endorsement of Theodore Dammann
for secretary of state is virtual re-
pudiation of Senator La Toilette; de-
clares statement issued at headquar-
tiers for Lieutenant Governor George
#. Comings, candidate for governor,
here today.
Senator La Follette's attempt to
bring out harmony among progressives
in Wisconsin has failed, with the en-
dorsement given Dammann by Mr..
Blaine" the statement says. "The SEN
ator's appeal to leaders in the state
to lay aside personal prejudices has
failed to take effect with the execu-
tive, Mr.. Blaine's action is destined
to bring about his defeat, since he mas
openly declared he will not be gov
erned by Senator La Follette's wishes
| in political matters"
/ The endorsement given Dammann by
the governor is considered an import
ant development in the political situa-
tion by progressive leaders here. It is
understood Attorney General Herman
l.. Ekern will today confer with Sen
ator La Toilette in Washington and
present the matter to him.

BROTHERHOODS NOT TO
ENDORSE LAFOLLETTE
President w. G.. Lee of Railway Bro
therhoods Declares No Candidate
Is Endorsed.

Cleveland, Ohio - In a circular
mailed today to the 10000 members
of the Brotherhood of Railrod train
men, advice is given the members re-
garding political action, which will
be repeated in the September issue OF
the Brotherhood's official publication
in which President w. G. Lee says
he 'has taken the position that our
organization should not indorse eth
err Coolidge, Davis or La Toilette for
president of the United States"
The circular reads in part:
"The Brotherhood of Railroad Train
men, through it's convention has de-
clared that it would not ally itself
with any political party, but believed
in following the policy of rewardine
labors friends and defeating labor's
enemies.
The adoption of sthis recommends
tion committed the organization to
Independent political action; it de-
clared that the time was not OPP
perfume for the brotherhood to ally
itself to any particular political or
ganization. In keeping with this reso-
luton the undersigned has taken the
position that our organization should
not endorse Coolidge, Davis or La
Toilette for President of the United
States. Information furnished this
office by the Washington legislative
bureau shows the labor record of each
of the above mentioned candidates
for president to be as nearly 100 per
cent in each instance as could rea-
sonably> be expected.
Estate legislative boards have been
advised that in our opinion they should
indorse neither hte Republican, Demo
cratic or independent ticket or party
but instead should confne their en-
sdorsement 70 eanesates sos states or
fices, including candidates for the
United States house and senate"
(Signed) NV. G. Lee, president.

Horse Drops Dead
When 1t Steps
On LiUe Wire


A horse owned and driven by Sam
Grotsky met with instant death Tues
day afternoon just before five o'clock
when it stepped on a live wire which
had fallen into the street on Grand
view avenue, during the storm Tues
day. Grotsky, who was driving the
horse, had presence of mind enough
to realize what had happened and did
not touch the animal until after the
wire had been cut. BY jumping from
the wagon quickly he saved himself
from any danger.
The live wire which the horse
stepped on had not been reported to
the police or to any city department.
There were, however, numerous re-
ports of wires falling and large crew
of men was at work trying to replace
these before any accidents occurred.

occupy" the Democratic candidate for
President declared in a letter to Eu-

CRIPPLED YACHT
REACHES PORT
Kenosha Guards Rush to
Assist Sailboat in Dis
tress. Five Miles Out.
CAUGHT in WINDSTORM

Trying to make port in Kenosha DUR
ing storm Tuesday morning was too
much for a sailboat which had set out
early yesterday from Two Rivers,
Wis, with Kenosha as its destination.
At a point about five miles east of
the local harbor the Kenosha Coast
Guard lookout located the sailboat
evidently in distress. The ship was
pitching heavily.
The Coast Guard life-boat and crew
was called out and within short time
assistance was given to enable the
boat to stand on it's own rudder again.
The crew of the yacht were advised
not to make Kenosha as their port but
to continue on to Racine with the
wind, which it was expected would
subside' in short time.
u j. Hermann, of Chicago, a vet
eran sailor and yachtman on Lake
Michigan, was in charge of the boat.
Almost Given Up as Lost.
When first reports were received
in the Kenosha harbor it was feared
that Hermann and his boat were lost.
He had been on the water for forty
eight hours, and after he landed at
Racine he declared that Tuesdays
storm was the worst he chad expert
enced in his forty years of sailing.
When he arrived at Racine the main
sail of the craft was broken, and it
was declared there that it would be
some time before Hermann would be
able to take the water again.
Considerable interest prevailed in
Kenoshas from the time the craft
was first sighted shortly before eleven
O'Clock Tuesday morning until the
coast guard crew returned to port
with the news that all was well.
