(From a Staff Correspondent.) Milwaukee, Wis., September 15—Allen P.

Warden, chairman of the Democratic State Central Committee of Wisconsin, to-day .outlined the political ^situation here for the correspondent of the Eagle, a~s follows":"

"There are many signs which give great promise of Democratic success in Wiscon­sin this fall—and this observation applies both to the national and the state ticket. In the first place It should be clearly held tn mind that Wisconsin has a very: large foreign population, mainly German and Scandinavian. .Metabers of both these graces are Invariably thrifty and forehanded. Those public matters which bear directly upon their individual'financial affairs are very- carefully -considered. Most of them have been raised under military govern­ments and are familiar from hard and bit­ter experience with the hardships and pri­vations that fall upon thes shoulders oF a people burdened with taxation for military purposes. Consequently they are very sen-«lHv» nn tha cpnrp of taxation in general. and especially of taxation for naval arid military establishment. - They have had enough of that sort of thing on the other tldo of the water and do not' propose to tako' any chance of repeating the experience ih their new home over here. """"There Is no doubt of the existence of a general and common conviction among this class of citizens that President Roose­velt Is Inclined to extend our naval and

"military establishments, touch beyond their present size and- to the proportions of a great military power in the sense In which that .term is used in the monarchies 'of

"Europe. ~At"any"'rater - they are "convinced th»t the President's tendencies are. in that

•"direction^and-that thl& w411—moan- <u)-4n«-crease of taxation for military purposes.

"These . citizens do not want any 'world -power,""~busiiiussj,' u r an-yttrtrrg-that direction. They are opposed to an In­crease of our national expenditures for: any purpose not absolutely necessitated by the most economical and conservative administration of national affairs—or of state affairs, for that matter. All they ask

been elected Governor of this state,/"which, normally. Is 'hopelessly Republican.' ' He, is, in other words, the only Democrat .'who ever •headed^a^BneegB^ful ticket and- brohw.^downr -th'e Republican- defenses in Wisconsin.

"Still more'-important Is the fact that every promise in the platforms on which George W. Peck led the Democrats of-Wis­consin to victory was fulfilled to. the letter. In the. first place, he .promised- the . repeal of a tneasuro known as tab -'Bennett law,'. which was put on the statute.books, by the Republicans. This measure placed the •parochial—schools—of—the—eta supervision of the State Superintendent of Instruction. Of course, the full expenses of these schools were paid, as "a privato mat­ter,, out-of the pockets of, our ioreign<born; citizens. These same citizens paid their full share of taxes for the support of the public schools and did so uncomplainingly. All they asked was the privilege-of privately /ma^pVal^i^g the^r own, schdotg"** their own personal expense.-- Consequently. they~~re-sented tho provisions of the Bennett law as an interference with their personal rights and liberties, This was ' the law Governor

TPromtsed to-repeah—and-that—promise, was. ^«d^"^od-xia :thff^lrd'or^ourth-dfty--or-the-session of the legislature convened-under his administration. '-;- .-

"Another pledge he gave to the people, in the platform of 1900, was to^eohipel former state: treasurers and their bondsmen to dis­gorge Jhejar 'go sums of money they had re­ceived^ as, interest bh state^funds"'arid "hail appropriated to, their private ends. . This practice had^ enabled the Republican state treasurers to contribute large amounts to the campaign funds of their: party and thus to perpetuate the grip which the Republican organization had- upon the politicians and thg people of the state.

" - SaVefl ^ 5 0 0 , 0 0 0 for•' TaxpayWsT1™"' ; "Almost immediately upon the Inaugura­tion of Governor Peck he began the long and fiercely-contested fights in the courts to re­cover these funds, which rightly belonged to tho state, it is almost Impossible to ex­aggerate the pressure- against-which.he was forced to.Jiontend or the obstacles placed in the way of accomplishing this patriotic pur­pose. But be persevered,-In spite of all the difficulties that oould'be put In his path, and finally forced the former state treasurers or their boudsmen to-pay back to- the 's ta te in cash an amount approximating $300,000. But his energy ahd-tefnclen.cy In relieving the people: of Wisconsin from the burdens of taxation did hot stop here.

"Although Mr. Peck undoubtedly is en­titled, personally, to receive a. pension from the'government.and has been urged by his friends to apply for one, he has resolutely refused t o d o soy- But; when he- became-Qov-ernor of Wisconsin and learned that the state had a valid claim .-against^ the national government tor a large amount of money ad-

-vanced-by- -the -cotninonwealth, to meet; the war expenses of the Union, he did not hesi-taie at once to take measures properly "to

is peace, quiet and. a chance to get ahead and enjoy their share of individual pros­perity.

Fore ign-Born Voters Very Independen t . "A'very large proportion Sethis claas> of

Wisconsin's population has ordinarily voted the* Republican ticket;-.but they are by no means hidebound partisans,. and on more than one occasion have shown that they will

press that claim. As a result of the activity of his 'administration in this partlctflar, a

talned.from the national government In.pay­ment of war claims. Taking this amount and that recovered.from former Republican State Treasurers, it will be seen that the .only Democratic administration that Wisconsin has had 'has been the means of recovering to—the-atato an amount—l$tt4e—less—4haxi-$1,000,000. • And the taxes of the people of

-To—the^EdnorTff^tho— Brookiyn-Eagle: \ t have been following the, automobile con­

troversy to the columns of your paper for thh entire season and have before me three It^ms qt a certain amount of Interest, the first one being the letters and the Item of R." ^ B." Rooseveit.""T"heartily Tagt.ee" with -the ex-mrnleter to The Hague in,-hl's opposition

. to excessive speeding and ani as Indignant /as he could possibly be where an auto thun-ders^pnywhere. and agree with htm in^the matter of the arrest of careless autblsts.

jf do not believe that i i r . Roosevelt -would possibly object to <he arrest of any : one -breaking the laws Of the' Btate, and I: think that he-would join all road users in an. en­forcement of the speed law against horse­men as well as automobilists. I feel that, as he said, the automobile/like the bicycle, has come to stay.

The next Item, published In your issue of August 6, Is part of a letter from Colgate •Hoyt,.In .which he'makes certain statements which I would not like to fully agree to. On August 27 you published a .letter from an old LOug Islander Avho objects to the syni-pathy, and also ^obje^ts to the Uniformed constables, and snenks of .the prior and an­cient right of ordinary vehicles olHthe cOm-mon road. As the.auto is under the law a common and: ordinary vehicle, arid entitled to the "same exemptions and rights as any other vehicle,/and. ^some. additional ones Nvhlch wore conferred by the act of 1894; I do hot see why or hoy It could be kept off the road except for Illegal cause.

In answer to Colgate Hoyt's letter of Au­gust 6 that the little country towns "to be again revived, and the good roads also which are so important to the fa.rmer and the lit­tle town, are Indebted more to the,, automo­bilists of the country than to'any other or­ganization in the country for the movement

"Another strong reason for believing that the present campaign offers a splendid op­portunity for swinging-.Wieconsin into -the Democratic column is the\almost total and universal kck of enthusiasm for Mr. Roose­velt among the Republicans of the state. This indifference to the head of the national ticket is everywhere apparent and Is ad-mit.te.d.Jby; Republicans, .without regard to tbelr factional allegiance.

But with President Roosevelt the opposite, is true. There is a dea"d level of indifference to his personality in the rank, and flic of his own party. .

"There l» 4»o doubt, also, ' that-certain classes of Republicans feci . that . President 'Roosevelt has unsafe tendencies and is In­cl ined. to do things calculated to disturb. financial conditions and (fin fstabllshod

I make this qualification for tho reason that, as wo have tho Aus­tralian ballot, many voters arb afraid to scratch the ticket for foar that they may. make a mistake and invalidate tn'e'ir ballot.
