Milwaukee, Wis., Sept. 18.- Any one wha Kinaplj.- -crosses Wisconsin olT the political map of doulitful status with tliej confident assertion that Senator LaFollotte will Ret the elec toral vote is missing much of what is liapponinK in these pa lis. which, -when the ballots are counted, will tend to reduce the vote cast for Robert M. LaFollette in his home state. One is the Democratic party which mysteriously enough is. displaying more activity than is customary and the other is the fact that under the Re publican .eagle where thous ands of voters have marked their ballots traditionally they will no longer lind La Follette as of yore. ^ The senior Senator from Wis consin has been runnliiK for ofTlc/' in thin state for .ft generation. He has always been a Republican. His enotnious vote two years ago was due to the fact that he won tho Republican primaries and there were thousands* of regular Republicans who disliked LaFol Ittte but voted the straight Re publican ilcket. AUo In those primaries there w.'ie thousand!* of Democrats and Socialists who helped La Follvtte capture the machinery of th**- Republican par ty. Rut today the voter faces a different situation. Thr regular Republican has Coolldge and Dawes, Many voters who are not particularly perturbed about? L? Follette 'a radicalism and who at the tamo time have the life-Ion^ t*blt of voting ft Republican tick et. wili, vote for Coolldge. Unquestionably Senator La Fol lotte will poll less of a Republi can vote by a good deal than he did two years ago. To offset hiB losses ho hopes for some acquisitions, jm be will have Socialists and Democrats to draw from. Rut, It is difficult to ' conceive that there were many vo ters who failed to vote for l?a Fol lette two years ago who would vote for him this year. He reached his maximum in 1922 and un doubtedly bus lost some sifice then. As if in confirmation of this, these Democrats have taken on hope and behave as If they think they had a chance. For the first time In a long while tiny have nominated complete ticket* throughout the counties and that is significant. Their strategy evi dently is to hold the Democratic vote In line and to regain much of it that has been in the habit of nsHlstlng La Follette. Tho question is whether such tact lew will help Davis or Coolldge. It purely doesn't help I41 Follette and If cannot be of much aid to the Democratic national ticket for by subtracting from La Follette's vote, the chances of 1'resld nt Coolldge carrying the state ar?\ improved. The Democrats have not been polling enough votes to assure thqjn of anything hut thlfd . place In a Three-cornered race; such sh the Presidential contest this year. If, therefore, they make ; tan active campaign they will take; ,'away votes from I * Follette. I'rlvately. there are regular Re- 1 publicans who are happy over what the Democrat* are doing. Th" regulars are not well or ganised and they have division In tlwlr own ranks, but they have little influence with the large In dependent body of voters wttlch has been the main pillar of La Follettes strength and If tho Democrats can tempt |hcm so much the better for Coolldge prospects. Wisconsin presents an unique, situation. The Republican state machinery Is In the handa of I,s Toilette. The Republican state niafWhefy Is In fTfe hands of T*a . Follette. , The Republican st'at" convention has Just fulfilled the, promise of the La Follette mana gers that they would play fair by b avlng th ? Republican label to Coolldge and by seeing to It that, jhe requirements of the statute <i-(Sr" met In selecting electors who fir rally Coolldge men. For a ./I in It Wis thought the I .a Fol lletie 1 roup might take advantage of the situation snd confuse the Lisue by sticking to the Republi can label. Rt)t, as if to make matters worse, th? L? follette msnsgers have aejegted Coolldg" electors and handed them to the regular Republican party- a hu miliating situation In polities. The electors chosen are Coolldge men sll right but their very names on the ballot In some casts will only make some of the La Follette vo ters. especially some of the Oer- 1 inaat, somewhat irrltsble.

Wh?'n I came home. 1 found mv sons hurrying to the golf links on practically every week day after noon. The excuse was that they had to take customers there and that by thl*/ means they could close business which could be had in no other way. The customers had a similar excuse to offer, maintaining they could . do busi ness more advantageously on th<- : links than In the office.
