Genuine Progressives of the

Theodore Roosevelt's star OF destiny
is falling
While he was in the South dicker-
ing for the support of Republican del
egates to the 1912 convention, "A yigor-
Gus movement was started among the
genuine" progressives OF the West
and Middle West looking toward the
withdrawal of all support from the
former president.
Some of the leaders of the Congress
sional delegation OF progressives qui-
etly talked the situation over and de
cided not to permit Roosevelt to run
away with the leadership OF the ma
tional progressive movement IL nee
essary, to prevent the ex-presidens
from using the progressive movement
for his own personal advancement,
these real progressives will publicly
repudiate Roosevelt. They will di-
rect public attention to the gross du-
plicity Roosevelt practiced on the peo-
pie by proclaiming himself a progress
sivo and then straightway turning
abont and allowing the New York
state convention-over which he had
absolute control--to adopt platform
indorsing the Payne-Aldrich tariff Jug
glery and the reactionary Taft admin
ieua'ioh' a
The New York platform squarely
describes the Payne-Aldrich law as
\ fullfillment OF Republican promises,
because it states there was an aver
age reduction of al lduties of IL per
cent. which, IL true, would constitute
revision downward.
This..js in contrast to the Wiscor-
sin Republican platform which states
unequivocally that the Payne-Aldrich
tariff is not compliance with the
pledge of the Republican party" La
Toilette, Clapp, Bristow, Cummins
and Dolliver are on record as saying

Therefore. il Roosevelt was right, the
progressives who declared otherwise
are members OF the Ananias club
which they emphatically deny, and
which the public does not believe.
The Rooseyelt-made platform con
tains still another paragraph which
makes T. r. impossible as leader OF

wit: I'VE enthusiastically indorse the
