Frank Maloy came down from Lowell this morning and remained here until 2 o’clock, when he went on to Indianapolis to attend the progressive state convention, to which he was a delegate from Lake county. Frank was raised in Rensselaer and was always a democrat until siezed with the bull moose fever two years ago. We can’t help but think what a good joke it is on him that he supported democrats for the presidency for twenty years or thereabouts and then left the party when the most progressive democrat the party has ever uncovered was its candidate. Frank, however, is going it strong in the progressive cause and is a big factor in the party in Lake county. Order your Calling Cards at The Republican office.
