JUDGE LARRABEE AND THE MORNING NEWS
The most beautiful specimen of brazen impudence which has come to our knowledge lately
is that of the Milwaukee NEWS in speaking of Judge LARRABEE. Hear it: "We
enter our disent to the assertion that the appointment of Judge LARABEE to the Commissionership
of the General Land Office, would be in accordance witht he unanimous recommendation
of the Democracy of Wisconsin. We are not aware that any 'unanimous recommendation'
has been given to the Judge by the Democracy of the State."
