Blaine Delays Call
For Special Election
poJ;tic, Marking Time in State;
Waiting for Return OF
Robert, Jr.

Madison Robert La Toilette, Jr.,
holds the key which will unlock the
ale to political conditions in Wis
eorsin Until he returns from his
rim 10 Washington, politics is mark
ir5 time in this state. Not until he
rstnrrs win Governor Blaine de-
fnitolv decide on a date for the hold
mo Of an election to fill the vacancy
osnsed bv the death of Senator
Pobert NJ. La Toilette. Because
Mrs La Toilette and her son are IN
Washington adjusting the affairs of
the senator. Governor Blaine does
not deem It advisable to discuss the
poGtjcal situation existing in the
state Tie believes that all matters
of politics should be adjourned until
the La Toilette business affairs have
been adjusted.
There is every indication that up
on the return of the La Toilette
family from Washington, Robert La
Toilette. Jr., will announce his cam
didacy for the United States senate.
That Mrs. La Toilette will decline to
be a candidate in spite of the num-
erous petitions which are being cir
culated in the state is information
based on the highest authority. 1t
is said that in conference with many
Of the political leaders she has eX-
pressed it as her opinion that Rob
ert Jr, should be a candidate and
that she should be allowed to devote
the remainder of her life to gather
ing the material for publishing pur-
poses upon which Senator La
Toilette mapped out the progressive
policies of Wisconsin and the nation.

special election is made the cam
paign viii be short The law pro-
yides that an election may be held
40 days after the call is issued and
that the primary must be held 10
days before the election Political
offices are settled in Wisconsin in
the primary campaigns, and the laws
in Wisconsin would make it possible
for only % days political cam
palgn in tho state.
That battle for political suprem-
acy Of more than passing importance
Is to be staged here is indicated by
the conservative convention in coun-
ties which are now being held. With

tons called by conservative groups

for the late Robert NJ. La Toilette.
IF Governor Blaine calls a spe-
cial election ! hope the Republican
state conference at Oshkosh will be

feel confident he will be successful

Looking For A Landing Field.

Major M. l.. BrOmberg, Advisory
Commissioner of Aircraft for the
State of Illinois has spent the past
week in consultation with Captain
Charles Simpson Smith of Manito-
wish regarding the location of a
landing field on the grounds of
Ramp Khaki on Lake Manitowish.
The Major is acting at the request of
number of prominent Chicago bust
ness men who want an air route be-
tween their city and the North
woods with landing field at some
central point. Various locations
have been inspected and there are a
number of suitable places along
route No. 10 between Lake Manito-
wish and Trout Lake that can easily
be converted.
While here the Major became very
much interested in the forest fire
problem and advises that aircraft
patrol will ultimately be the means
of reducing forest fire ravages to a
negligible minimum.-Ashland Press.

to nearby property. The building
was but short distance west Of the
Burton hotel.
The building was used as a livery
stable for many years by T. S.
