Madison, Wis., May 19. LaFollette was renominated governor for a third term by the Republican convention this morning. The bolters holdj a soparato convention this afternoon, and nominated on entire state ticket. headed by Sam Cook, and supported by the two United States senators. A merry, municipal war was precip itated', laat night iat Sllverton, which leaves that city without a policeman and practically without any city gov ernment. The council Is evenly di vided between tho reform forces and the supporters of tho Potter admin istration, and the que3t!on of suprem acy will bo taken" lntd tho courts. At the last city election a reform ticket was elected, nnd a law enforce ment mayor and three aldermen of that ticket were elected. Goo. Cusit or, Democratic warhorso, and Brooks, Opsund and Hicks, aldermen, were the new board of city officials and a majority of the council, as the three hold-over aldermen Drake. Jack and Davenport, without Mayor Potter, are a minority, The city charter provides that tho now mayor and aldermen, must quali fy on the second Monday after elec tion, at an hour and tlmo not speci fied. So Cusiter and the reform al dermen, got a move on, and qualified "before sunup" on Monday, the 16th Jay of May. "The universal custom has been to qualify in the evening of that day In the presence of and at the regular session of the council. The old council had some Important unfinished business on hand that they wanted to wind up In due -and proper order among other things a brand new water franchise ordinance, and by the hasty action of Geo. Cusiter they were precluded from gathering In the harvest of legislation that was so well under 'way .and now so rudely Interfered .with. , t. t ,. . It Was ? Holdup. So Mayor Potter and r the ' throo hold.ovor nlderraOn refused to meet ' with the newly elected reform fathers of 'the city of Sllverton, on the ground that they were not legally ejected and: , qualified, ' having no certificates of election, and the old city officiate re fused further to enter Into any diplo matic relations with tho Insurgents -or sign up any certificates of oleqtjon or sit in the council with the would bo mnyor and aldermen on Wednos-. day night, May s18th.
