And Still They Come.

Every day there comes in expression from some republican, who voted as a progressive in 1912, but Wants it understood that he is still a republican. Witness the following from Herman Grout, y a Terre Haute business man, who affiliated with the progressives and voted for Boosevelt. “The (best interests of Indiana and the United States demand that all who believe in the policy of protection for American homes and American industries unite in a solid opposition to the democratic party, which is again demonstrating conclusively that its governmentar policies do not work to the general satisfaction and welfare of the people. I was a progressive in 1912, but I am like unnumbered thousands, who, voicing a protest, did not forsake the cardinal principles of the republican party. The republican party has responded promptly to public demand. The national committee readily corrected the southern representation plan and the rank and file in Indiana had their say in the selection of the republican state committee with the result that no political party in the history of Indiana ever had a more progressive organizations than the republicans of Indiana have now. Political and commercial throughout the country are working to the advantage of the republican party. Personalities are being lost sight of and progressive republicans and disgusted democrats are centering their minds on ways to restore the country to the widespread prosperity that it has'always enjoyed when the government was guided by the republican party.”
