A HOME VIEW OF 1.1 FOLLETTE. The Observer has been anxious for 81FETT OF LIFE AM) FROrEKIT. mo t,Dle to an opinion of Sena- i tor Ia Follette from the ranks of his It would seem that the city admin istration has reached a point in pro tiding sufficient police force for regu lation of the city, thus insuring pro tection to life and property, all of which will be gladly known Dot onlv 1c La Grande people but to Jie out side world. No blacker spot can exist on any community than that of un safe conditions; nothing tende to dis credit present day civilization than to feel when darness cetnes It i accom panied with a lurking suspicion that something is going to happen; that the own state. At last we have found It In the Whitewater, Wis., Register, one of the dignified and reliable newspa pers of Wisconsin. Listen to what Editor Coe oftbe Register has to say: Frequently we are asked why it is that we' (editorially and otherwise) do not like Senator La Foljette. It is a bard thing to make plain at times because the senator stands insincerely for some very desirable things. In the current rssue'of'the Jefferson County Union we find an ; editorial by Ex-Governor W. D. Hoai rr'-r!, !TVy.3iJ?r'-vhieh MU.oiL.inanr of the points In the La Follette character so dangerous In a man of his present influence. We know from our own observation tint Governor Hoard sees thfg man in bis true light. We wish our readers would peruse Ms statements dispassionately. We are beginning to think that the Jefferson County Union is doing a most useful ervlce, in that it deaion ctrateg to jome of the blind and "far editorial worshippers ol Robert M. La Follette, what can be hone;-iiy and truthfull said against him. Sj.tr sibly bloodshed.

When sWi grmt rand faithful nu republi cans as the late Geo. F. Bryant and Senator Stout. Isaac Stephenson, Mg nus Swenson, George F. Hurtnnll. of Superior, Wm, Connor, Gov; Davidson, and a host of other triad and true men felt obliged to break from his surportj, there is greater slgnificanco and farther meaning in such action than In anything words can convey. These men were not stalwarts. They were the men who helped put La Follette where he is. i But they were self respecting men; men who would not consent to make war on their own party and fellow workers just to fult the spite or fur ther the ambition of La Follette. When they got a view of that trait of his i character,. when! they saw that he hadj V.-.:: jtrei-t. , All l.i atoyt tLe Ito; ;i" is for La Fottta acj r.oj tie people.

The people must hold steadfastly to the ' principle of electing safe men as well as talented men Oratorical ability is not enough- We need m ju who will curb their own ambition, who are fair, reasonable and just. There Is none of the bitterness of personal disappointment in wha we say. It Is not an agreeable task for us. We are not speaking Iroji the standjolnt of a sorehead, for we have never sought place or position at" La Follette'a bands. We have been, liVo hundreds of others, a giver, not a tak er.
