WISCONSIN STIRRED
BY POLITICAL TRUCE
Conservative Pro- gressive
Amity Designed to Offset
Democratic Gains.
BY WILLIAM T. EVJUE.

MADISON, Wis, September 30
Talk of a coalition between conserva-
tive and progressive Republicans, to
present united front against Wisconsin
Democrats. stirred political circles this
week as the conservatives began a
Statewide conference in the north
central city of Wausau.
Since George Gilkey, chairman of the
State "stalwart" or conservative Re-
publican organization, reversed an
earlier decision and issued a call to
county chairmen to assemble at Wau-
sau, the conservative press has carried
on a discussion concerning the feast
bility Of union of Republican factions
in the 1884 campaign. Leading the
discussion has been the Milwaukee
Sentinel. largest conservative newspaper
of the State
The most direct of these proposals
came from Rowland j. Steinle, Milwau-
kee attorney who has taken an active
part in conservative councils and was
Walter j. Kohler's campaign in 1882.
Steinle urged the progressives and con-
servatives forget their differences and
meet on common ground without the
sacrificing of principle"
Progressives generally, however, are
not taking seriously the overtures Of the
conservatives. who since the early days
of the late Robert M. La Toilette. sr.,
have been their bitter political foes.
They favor liberalizing of the Re-
publican party nationally as well as
within State limits. and maintain the
political philosophy Of such conserva-
tive leaders as Mellon. Hoover and Mills
could never be reconciled with that Of
La Follettes, Norris and other members
Of the congressional progressive bloc.
The results Of the Wausau conference
probably will be played down as much
as possible in view of the fear Of the
conservatives that any hectic political
activity at this time will be viewed as
opposition to the Roosevelt recovery pro-
gram. The conference is expected to
deal largely with organization plans for
next years campaign rather than at
tempting any cataloguing of issues or
campaign material.

majority of "wets" who are
,ow wrestling with the problem OF
Houor control legislation in Middle
western states in preparation for the
repeal late this Autumn OF the elgnt-
eenth amendment.
Now that repeal practically IS as
u,red, the anti-prohibition forces are
feeling the weight of the responsibility
that will be involved in liquor controi:
The drys are watching the antics OF
the vets with much amusement ana
are not giving much help in the
formulation of legislation when liquor
again becomes the problem OF the
States.
The work of the Illinois Commission
on LEGISLATION is being watched by
other States OF the Upper MISSISSIPPI
Valley. The Illinois commission is
trying to draft model law tnat VIII
forestall another wave OF anti-saloon
sentiment that swept prohibition into
the Constitution.
County Option Assured.
That the new laws must provide for
county option is agreed by those most
active in presentation of evidence at
the hearings of the commission. The
anti prohibition forces are being ad-
yised by their wetteSt friends that the
wet movement is doomed" If county
option is not restored as a right OF
minorities in States where counties may
have dry maJorltleS.
However, there is considerable OPP
position in urban centers to county
option because OF the common belief
that the Anti-Saloon League forces will
become entrenched again as a powerful
political factor In State politics.
Anti-prohibition leaders are I'M
pressed with the numerical strength OF
the drvs in thousands of communities
and feel that The repealists must not
ieopardize the p1rmanency OF their VIC
tory by forcing communities to be wet
when they want to be dry.
State commissions in Wisconsin,

officially signified their concurrence

Oppose Old Saloon.
"The saloon must not return" say
the majority of the members of the
State liquor commissions. In Illinois
there Is a stronger sentiment for the
return of the saloon than in other
Middle western States. But that hard
liquors will not be sold legally along
with beer and wine seems fairly well
assured. The law probably will say
that hard liquors are not to be con-
sumed in public houses or where pur-
chased.
In each Of these States sentiment
favors the sale of hard liquors only In
original packages.

special DlSpatch 70 the Star.
SEATTLE, September 30-On Tues
day Of next week Washington, one of
the first States to become bone dry
in 1915, will formally, through a con-
stttutional convention, ratify the twen-
tieth amendment and repeal the eight
eeth amendment
The legislative act which called for
the special election vote this month to
elect delegates to the convention also
provided that the convention convene
at Olympia, State capital, Tuesday
morning, elect chairman, formally
ratify the new repeating amendment
and adjourn.
In paving the way for the repeal
action the State last November by the
adoption of an initiative measure wiped
from the statutes all laws governing
the manufacture, sale, regulation or
made. The initiative measure made it
felony to "sell" liquor to a minor.
Because of the fact the State will
have no regulatory measures, II SO
States should repeal, Gov. Clarence D.
Martin Is naming a commission to in
Vestlgate and report to him with rec
concentrations as to whether or not the
Legislature should be convened in
extraordinary session to enact rez1lla-
TORY liquor laws.
With strong prospects ahead Of ab-
solute repeal Of the eighteenth amend
ment and the showing being made ma
tionally by 80 per cent beer taxes, the
educational groups and others are now
turning their attention toward the
possibility Of making the liquor trahac
foot a large proportion Of the expense
OF the schools and county, city and
State general funds.
II there is a special session, 1t will
be for this purpose alone, to levy license
fees upon liquor traffic, in the hope Of
raising tax moneys in this manner.
Last November Washington by In
ttiative limited the tax which could be
assessed real and personal property to
not to exceed 40 mills upon an assessed
valution Of so per cent of the market
value, a reduction in taxes directly Of
around IS per cent.
This act becomes effective January
l, 1884. As a result of such a heavy
tax slash the State schools, as well as
all school districts, will be short In their
budgets nearly $6 900 900 annually. The
Legislature enacted an occupational
gross income tax to meet this deficit,
but the tax Is most unpopular.
