la TOILETTE FIGHTS
FOR POLITICAL LIFE
OId-Line Republicans Hope to
Capture Wisconsin in
September.
b. the Associated Press,

BY t1S hbSOCldltu fItSh'
MADISON, Wis, July 19.-f there
is to be any parting of the political
ways that will send Gov. Philip F. La
Toilette back to private life, the con-
servative element of Wlsconsins ne
publican party believes 1t Will come
next September 20.
That is the day when Wisconsin
holds its biennial State primary, in
which the progresSiviSm that has come
to be svmbolized by the La Toilette fam
ily name aligrs itself against con
servative" Republcanism for control OF
all public Offices.
To the outsider it might be said that
virtually the only thing in common be.
tween La Folletteism and the Grand
Old Party is the name Republican
and there always is bitter dispute as
to which is entitled to ownership OF
that.
Finishing First Term.
Young Phil" at 35 finishes his FIRST
term as Governor this year and seeks
another.
His campaign announcement, in
which he claimed his administration
has relieved general property taxpayers
to the extent of s30,000000 by econo-
mics end shifting the burden 70 otner
sources was a personal platform on
which he will make the race.
The man he will have to beat Is the
wealthy bath tub manufacturer ne
ousted from office two years ago, for
mer Gov. Walter J, Kohler. Kohler
was drafted by conservative Republl-
cans to carry their banner again this
year.
Perhaps the most encouraging omen
for the conservatives was their success
In sending to the national convention
this vear-for the first time in many
mnons-a ma jority of delegates in
sympathy with the national party.
Charge Tax Increase.
The conservatives chief campaign
argument will be that Gov. La Toilette
brought about net increase in taxes
levied by the State government, par
tjcularly on incomes, with the result
that many have been unable to pay
their tax bills.
The Governor is expected to answer
that wherever his policies have meant
new taxes for any one class of tax
rayers. and wherever he has effected
economies. the net result has been
lighter burden upon those least able to
pay.

gagements between the Philippine
constabulary and the war-like native
Moros In which IL militiamen were

been killed, but constabulary officers
said probably more fell in the sever
est fighting in recent years in TINS
troublesome southern Philippine dis
trict.
The trouble started early Sunday
near Kulakulay on the southern side
of Jolo Island when Lieutenant Ala
gar, leading % men on a peace expe-

narrow trail. AS Alagar held out his
hand in friendly gesture, a Moro
identified as Imam Ibbah hurled a
spear, striking the officer.

their homes into the rain. No dam
age was reported from this cause,
however.

WILLIAMS COUNTY
REPUBLICANS ASK
ERICKSON TO QUIT
Would Have New Chairman Of
Central Committee Not
Supporting Hoover

Demand that o. e. Erickson resign
as chairman of the Republican state
central committee was voiced Monday
by the Williams County Republican
committee.
The Williams county group, In
censed at Erickson's support of Presi-
dent Hoover in the present campaign,
adopted resolutions which were re-
ported by the Associated Press as fol-
lows:
Il. He has made public state
ment that the Republican central
committee would conduct a vigorous
campaign for President Hoover. The
statement was an unwarranted as
sumption of authority that belongs
to the committee.
%. Although President Hoover is
the Republican candidate, he does not
stand for the fundamental principles
Of the Republican party. A political
reactionary, no progressive can sup
port Hoover with consistency.
%. Chairman Erickson by his an
nouncement has done incalculable
harm to the Republican party il,
North Dakota through the confusion
and misunderstanding his statements
have created. Hence his usefulness
as a member of the central commit
tee is at an end and will merely re-
suit in more confusion. even though
he conducts his campaign for Hoover
as an individual, which he has a per-
feet right to do"
Erickson has opened headquarters
for Hoover and Curtis in the Patter-
son Hotel here and is proceeding with
his campaign in their behalf.
From Williams county also came
word that a county unit Of the Liberty
Party has been formed there, with
eight local clubs already formed. Ed
win Appam, Larson, was named chair
man of the local organization. L. H
Retain is acting as organizer under
the direction of williams TallackSon
Grafton, state chairman.
The latter has proposed q meeting
at Minot to unite all reform" parties
behind w. H. (Coin) Harvey for pres
ident. Communists, Socialists and
others would be invited to attend.
