FACE THE FUTURE.

The Democrats of Wisconsin will
meet in convention in Milwaukee on
Tuesday, July IL. Their duty is plain,
1t is simply to be truly democratic.
They must not attempt to play horse
with the people. To be truly demo-
cratic is to be progressive. Democracy
is government by the people. And
human progress carries with it progress
sive principles of government. This is
the rule of life. 1t is not enough to
hold fast that which is good. AS Demo
Gratis we should 60 forward towards
ultimate truth.
The Milwaukee Journal says:
eff the Democratic candidate in the
primary do not appeal to Progressive
Democrats nothing, we may believe,
can keep them from supporting Mr..
LaFollettee and Progressive candidates
in the Republican primaries. If the
Democratic leaders want to hold the
Progressive Democrats in the Demo
cratic primaries they must see that
Progressives candidates are brought
out, not only for United States senator
and governor, but in the legislative
district as we'll. To bring out Pro
gressive candidate for senator and
nominate Democrats of the type of those
that lent themselves to Stephenson's
election inevitably would mean a be-
trayal of the party and it's Progressive
voters
