edly anti-progressive, and /for another reason because the Democratic party’s present situation under Woodrow Wilson is false and Meeting. The Democratic party in Indiana is no more like Woodrow Wilson. than it is like Theodore Roosevelt. At Baltimore the Democratic party was thrown and branded by Mr. Bryan against its will, but it is the same old outfit it was when at the primaries it voted for Champ Clark and at Baltimore it elected Alton B Parker for chairman of its national convention. The idea of supporting men like Shively , for Senator, and Peterson for Congress as representative of Woodrow Wilson is a ghastly joke. Down their rebellious throats the President has rammed the progressive measures of his administration. ——:O:—— Woodrow Wilson is in the Democratic party very much as Theodore Roosevelt was in the Republican party. Each ruled his party against its will to progressive ends. For a time it could ne controlled, but in it were the seeds of hopeless reactionary decay. If ydu take the combined Democratic and Progressive vote in Maine (76,000) and the Republican vote (61,000) you will get a fair idea of the unquenchable uprising in a state that voted 64,000 to 27,000 Republican in 19 04. Out of the Republican and Democratic parties the Progressive movement and the Progressive party have arisen to restore popular government and enthrone humanity in political life. The idea of this band of forward-lookers going back to the Republican party is grotesque. Between the political philosophy and practice of Cannon and Aldrich and that of Woodrow Wilson they would choose Wilson every time. Neither in Maine nor in Indiana can the progressive measures and leadership of Woodrow Wilson be held up successfully as a scarecrow to drive men back to the Republican party.
