From Progressive Republican
Headquarters in DE


The following has been received
from Progressive Republican head
quarters in Denver, with a request
to publish:
1--WE strongly endorse the last
Republican national platform.
I'VE favor the Initiative and Ref
erendum, the Recall and the Direct
Primary legislation which has been
adopted by nearly all the Republic
an states in the West. approved by
numberless county conventions in
Colorado and a portion of which
| has been demanded by our state
conventions for years.
We do not recognize any obliga-
ton on the party to give presl-
dent denomination, and we rem
ember that when President Harris
on sought a denomination our SEN
ator Wolcott led the opposition and
devoted all his great talents to the
cause of Mr.. Blaine. We believe
our candidate in 1912 should be a
man whose devotion to progressive
legislation cannot be questioned
and who will lead in forcing a Just
settlement of these economic ana IN
dustrial problems that are now par
alyzing business and causing wide
spread unrest and alarm. We be-
lieye no man in the country SO CON-
pletely represents these Ideals as
Senator La Toilette and, we there
fore favor delegation to the Nat
ional Republican convention pledg-
ed to support him for the nomina-
, ton. and they should be men VINO
are themselves devoted to these re-
form measures. We do not believe
the Republican organization in the
state as now constituted can be de
pended upon to send such dele
CATION. We do not believe Mr. lai'
would stand the slightest chance oi
: being elected If nominated, and we
will call attention to the loO,oou
, majority given the Republican part,
one year ago in Wisconsin as con
trasted with the Democratic mai
, ority of over 100000 in Ohio as q
complete refutation of the charge
/ that La Follette's friends are dis
, rupting the Republican party.
I'VE demand the absolute divorce
of the state and local Republican
. machine from their railroad ant
, public utility alliances. We refus'
to accept as leaders men who VIII
= meet in secret conference Gas die
, the Taft Republican club and de
= nounce those reorm measures u
i which the party is committed ant
Q which to us seem essential to TN
, purpetuity of the republic, and
r week later, smarting under the lasi
d of public disapproval, reconvene ant
z "lay aside" the platfrom 80 inso
Q llently adopted. This is no time To-
ltrimmers, or towards or hypocrites

cure deafness, and that is by con-

caused by an inflamcd condition of
