Wisconsin law limits campaign expenditures to $4,000 per person. The Progressive charge prosecuted by special attorneys for the State was that Governor Kohler had spent some $100,000 through himself, his family and his plumbing factory.

He has laid aside Pianist Samaroff, taken to wife instead Evangeline Brewster Johnson, Manhattan socialite and mother of a second Stokowski daughter, Luba.
