WISCONSIN CHIEF EXECUTIVE PUIS GUARDJAN ON Governor Blaine Will Not Mobilize State Unit on Sept. 12, By United Press MADISON. Wis., Aug. 2.—Wisconsin's National Guard will not take part in National Defense Day, Sept. 12, it was announced today. In an order issued by direction of Governor John J. Blaine. Adjutant General Ralph Immell today declared “the Governor feels a test of mobilisation is inadvisable.” and that the Wisconsin National Guard will “take part only' on the call of the President of the United States issued In a national emergency'.” Blaine's statement contends the defense test Inadvisable because it would "stimulate a national military movement” and it would be more worth-while “for America to hold a demonstration that would lead to universal peace.” He also objected to the plan on the ground it would create an unwanted impression in foreign countries. Governor Blaine further attacked the mobilization scheme on the . ground of inconvenience advanced by Democratic vice presidential candidate, Governor Bryan in his state* ment.

Friend of la Follette The Wisconsin chief executive is a close friend and political ally of Senator Robert M. La Follette. The text 'of Governor Blaine's statement follows: “It is the opinion of the Governor that a time when all people of the civilized nations of the world are demanding a reduction of armaments both on land and on sea, it is inadvisable for the American Government. through propaganda and demonstration, to stimulate a military movement. While it is true that the sole purpose of the movement is to acquaint the American people with anew national defense plan, yet it would be Interpreted by foreign powers as the American layman intcreprets like demonstrations in those lands. "Considering the participation of America in the last great war, the hopes, ideals and the failure of America to achieve its purpose of universal peace, it would be well worth while for America to hold a demonstration on Sept. 12, 1524, that would lead the way for foreign nations to universal peace. “It is the opinion of the Governor that a patriotic demonstration in Wisconsin, the State that sent 94,000 men to the Civil War, 5.469 to the Spanish-American War and 124,814 men to the World War. needs no patriotic lesson. Wisconsin's military history recalls the major components of the 32nd Division. "It recalls the fact that ih no war during its history has Wisconsin failed to answer the call for national defense or known within its own boundaries industrial or military disorders, and the fact that on July 18. 1918 when American arms stemmed the tide in the second battle of the Marne, one out of every fifteen soldiers wearing the American uniform in France came from Wisconsin. Test Inadvisable “For the reason indicated, the Governor feels that a test of mobilization is inadvisable. “The Wisconsin National Guard will take part only on the call of the President of the United States, Issued under constitutional authority in a national emergency.” Almost simultaneous with Governor Blaine’s statement. Judge E. Ray Stevens In a local Circuit Court ruled Wisconsin National Guardsmen are employes of the State and not of the Federal Government, Judge Steven's decision was made in a civil suit involving an industrial State commission award.

A little yellow dog with no plaoe to go had wandered in and crawled under a table in the reception room.

GOWPERS BEGINS BIGGEST BATTLE OF HISCAREER Labor Leader Will Drive for Concerted Political Movement, By United Press ATLANTIC CITY, N. J„ Aug. 2. —S.omuel Gompers. war-scarred veteran of labor's half-century fight for supremacy, weakened by encroaching ill-health and with a nurse and physician in constant attendance, today began the biggest battle of his career. It is a battle which may result in the first nationally concerted political movement to establish a labor government in the United , States, paralleling the new labor governments in Europe which have risen to power in the revolt of the farmer and the worker against old line political affiliations. Gompers. himself taciturn and se cretive, is pictured by his closest friends cm believing now that the best chance of success lies in action by the executive council of his American Federation of Labor swinging vigorously in behind the presidential candidacy of Robert M. La Follette. Second Day “Tie council, beginning its second day's session today, had before it the unanimous recommendation of its political campaign committee giving a qualified indorsement of the IjH Follette candidacy. First formal decision by the council is scheduled for this afternoon. Sentiment in the council Is overwhelmingly in favor of getting behind the I>a Follette campaign. And so Gompers, 74 years old, has come to take up the fight, perhaps his last presidential fight. His health is so weakened that it is impossible to say when the final action of the council on the report will be taken. He cannot remain- in the council chamber throughout the long daily sessions and the subject is not to be discussed except in his presence. He is in such a condition that he has called off his daily conferences with the newspapermen. To Ttjrash Out Steps The council intends to thrash out fully the possible effects of its unprecedented step before it is taken, accordnig to Matthew Woll, chief lieuteant to Gompers. It wishes to preserve carefully its former policy of non-partisanship. It does not desire to pledge Itself to all progressive .principles, or give the impression that it will not support many regular Republican and Democratic candidates for the Senate and Congress. Qualified indorsement of the La Follette-Wheeler presidential ticket, however, is no departure from the old opllcies of the past. Gompers believes. This sentiment led him and the other three members of the campaign committee to affix their signatures to the indorsement report. They are in favor of stating their objections to some minor points in the La Follette platform, but there will be no restriction of the support which would be given in the campaign, so that all organized labor’s 5,000,000 votes would be cast for the Independent ticket. It is Gompers’ biggest fightindications are that the decision of the committee will not be made public before Monday at least and perhaps later. POISON LABELS URGED Coroner Reads Statutes to See if He lias Authority. Coroner Paul F. Robinson today was busily studying the statutes to see if he has the authority to force the labeling with the word “Poison” all deadly articles sold in Marion County.

BACON AND HAM UP Slight Price Advances Follow Live Hog Boost. Slight advances were registered in wholesale dressed pork prices here today. Bacon rose 1 cent. Sugar cured bacon gained Icents. Ham advanced 1 cent on the pound. Tenderloins were 4 cents higher. Fresh ham moved up cents. Dressed hogs, 140 to 160 pounds were quoted Vi cent lower than last week.
