LAFOLLE'TTE WILL
NOT BE NOTIFIED
LaFollette Says Formal Notification is
a Waste of Time and Money
He Knows He's a Candidate.

ashington.-Senator LaFollette of
Wisconsin probably won't be notified
officially that the recent Cleveland con-
vention Of the Conference for Progress
sive Political Action endorsed him as
an independent candidate for president.
He knows he is a candidate-in fact,
he knew it before the convention did
and he knows the delegates to the con-
vention know it. AS for their endorse
ment, he knows they know they gave it.
So he has concluded it would be a
waste of time, money and energy to
have a formal notification ceremony,
such as is customarily accorded presi-
Dental candidates, and his supporters
knowing his attitude are making no
plans for one.
When the conferences national com
mittee meets here the last Of the week
to work out campaign plans, it intends
to call on the senator. That is the
nearest approach there will be to a
notification. Several weeks may elapse
before the LaFollette campaign is in
full swing. A mass of details remains
to be worked out and the senator has
concluded it would be best to attend to
them first, conserving his strength for
strenuous days later in the fight when
he figures arguments will have more
telling effect on voters.

Democrats Trying
"To Come Back"
Democrats of the State Making :
Determined Effort to Get Back
on the Ticket

Madison, visa determined effort
on the part of the Democratic party
to f'come back" in Wisconsin, will be
made in state elections next fall, poll
ticians here believe.
Announcement of Judge Martin
Lueck, Beaver Dam, that he would
seek the governorship on the Demo-
cratic ticket, is regarded as the first
definite move toward punching new
life into the Democratic organization.
Conferences have been held among
loyal leaders of the party who have
not allied themselves with either of
the Republican factions in the state as
have many who formerly contributed to
Democratic strength in Wisconsin.
Senator LaFollette's action in de-
sorting the Republican ranks for an
independent presidential candidacy, is
regarded by Democrats as furnishing
an opening for their candidates for
Congress. 1t means there will be
much ticket splitting in the state and
the followers of jefferson hope that
one or two of their candidates may
finish ahead when the results of the
balloting are announced.
Judge Lueck is so far unopposed for
the Democratic nomination. Others
have been mentioned, but it is very
possible Lueck will be backed by a
united party since only a short time
now remains in which to file nomina-
tion papers and most Of the candidacy
announcements have been made.
