LA TOILETTE WINS
Endorsed by Progressives for

TAKE STEPS FOR CAMPAIGN

CHICAGO. October 1.-Two hundred
progressive republicans in their first ma
tional conference yesterday Endorsed Sen
ator Robert NJ. La Toilette of Wisconsin
for President, and declared in favor OF
a direct primary as means for the
expression of a presidential choice.
The Endorsement came in the shape OF
resolutions framed in part by former
Secretary of the Interior James r. Car
field, who it was held by the delegates,
appeared as expressing the views of
Theodore Roosevelt, and who. it was
feared, would oppose a declaration in
favor of any individual.
The resolutions followed a day of La
Toilette enthusiasm, in which his name
was cheered repeatedly as it was men,
toned by dozen speakers. Contrary to
expectations, the conference was finished
in one day, most of the delegates left the
city, and the program outlined for To-
day included only luncheon and mass
meeting at night.
Speakers at the luncheon include Sen
ator Moses f. Clapp of Minnesota, James
Monahan of Minneapolis, Henry r.
Cochems of Milwaukee. At the night
meeting the speakers will be Senator
Clapp. Senator Crawford of South Dako-
ia, George L. Record, New Jersey: Amos
Pinchot, New York. and Charles E. Mer-
ri Illinois

Praise for La Toilette.

II believe he said this great upris-
ing that is making itself felt from ocean
to ocean will lose its force in internal
discord unless we take a symbol around
which to rally. Senator La Toilette is
in himself platform that represents the
progressive spirit"
A national organization built on the
lines of the usual political organization
was outlined. The plan included the
naming, at a later date, of state, coun-
ty and precinct committees and officials.
Popular subscriptions to finance the
campaign came as a suggestion from Ru-
dolph Spreckels of California, which was
adopted by the finance committee.
Mr. Garfield took more direct part in
the session that followed the adoption
of the committee reports. In a short
speech. he praised the delegates for seek
ing to crystalline the progressive move
ment, of which, he declared he had been
a part since It's inception.
He remained silent, however. as to
direct issues and slipped from the plat
form during a round of cheers that fol-
lowed an indirect reference to the in
dorsement of Mr.. La Toilette.
Senator c. /. Crawford, the only United
States senator here besides Senator
Clapp. placed the responsibility for exist
ing conditions on the federal government.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1911-10-17

I'VE favor the ascertainment of the
choice of republican voters as to candi-
dates for President by direct primary
vote, held in each state pursuant to
the statute, and where no such statute
exists we urge that the republican
state committees provide that the peO-
pie be given the right to express their
choice for President.
Robert Marion La Toilette of Wis
cOnSin years ago found conditions In
his state not unlike those of the nation
today. Under his leadership all OppO-
sition was overcome, and there has
been enacted in Wisconsin a system
of laws that stand as models for legis-
lation in all states of the Union. Laws
have been passed in that state ade
quately regulating all public service
corporations, equaliZing the burdens
of taxa ton. providing for direct nOmi-
nations by the people, protecting le-
gitimate business and capital honestly
invested. promoting the welfare of
labor-in short, real progressive gov
eminent has been restored.
THE record of Senator La Toilette
in state and nation makes him logical
candidate for President of the United
States. His experience, his character
his courage his record of constructive
Legislation, and administrative ability
meet the requirements for leadership
such as present conditions demand

Movement Clearly Defined.

The resolutions were framed by a sub
committee of five from a committee OF
thirteen, and were revised by former Sec
rotary Garfield and Representative Irvine
l.. Lenroot of Wisconsin. They read, in
part:
THE progressive movement is strug-
gle to wrest the control of the govern
ment in the nation and states from the
representatives of special privilege and
restore it to the control of the people,
The issue is the same in all the states
though the problem may be presented In
different ways.
I'm the national field the control OF
government by special privilege is evil
denced by the influence and power OF the
reactionary leaders in both parties IN
checking or preventing the enactment OF
progressive policies pledged by the repub-
lican party.
1.-The present condition of uncertainty
i'm business is intolerable and destructive
of industrial prosperity. 1t is worse than
idle to leave the question of whether
great business enterprises are legal or not
merely to judicial determination. un-
dustrial corporations should by aftirma-
tive legislative enactment be given def
mite rules of conduct by which business
shall be made safe and stable. while at
the same time the interests of the pub
lie should be fully safeguarded. We seek
constructive legislation, not destructive
litigation.

PRESIDENT TURNS EAST:
DUE HERE NOVEMBER |.
Trip From Pacific Coast to
Washington Will Be a
Strenuous One.

LOS ANGELES, Cal. October 17-With
his departure from Los Angeles today
President Taft brought to an end his
second visit to the Pacific coast since
he entered the White House, and from
now until November 1 the President will
travel toward Washington.
From Los Angeles Mr.. Taft will make
the longest Jump of the present trip
there being but one regularly scheduled
stop. at Ogden. Utah, tomorrow after
noon, on the journey from this city to
Butte, Mont, where Thursday morning
the President will again go ashore for
a few hours. He will spend more than
forty hours almost continuously in his
private car and will cross California,
Nevada, Utah and part of Montana in a
!, 216-mile stretch.
Three Days in Chicago.
From Butte Mr.. Taft goes through
eastern Montana, South Dakota, Mime
sofa and Illinois. with a three-day stop
at Chicago, one day in Pittsburgh and
then back to Washington.
Although the trip has been a hard one.
the President leaves the Pacific coast
in practically as good physical condition
as when he boarded his private car IN
Boston more than four weeks ago. Only
once has his voice grown even husky and
once only has he failed to accept an
invitation to participate in any sort of
function that had been arranged with
an eye to his presence.
Returning in Good Shape.
The trip from now on will be almost
as strenuous as it has been for the last
four weeks, but if the President keeps
in the same sort of trim as now he will
return to Washington with eyes as clear
and with almost as much tan on his
cheeks as when he regretfully slowed
away his golf sticks at Beverly, took one
last look at the MyOpia golf course and
started west to educate the people, as
to the policies of his administration.

La Toilette Brought Forward.

This conference indOrses him as
candidate for the republican nominal
ton for President and urges that in
all states organizations be formed to
promote his nomination"
The resolutions were drafted by E.
p. Costigan, Colorado; f. Merriam, Chi
cagO; James X. Garfield, Ohio; Amos
Pinchot. New York, and j. f. Little Of
North Carolina.
While the avowed intention of the con-
ference was the Endorsement of La Fol-
lette, the arrival of Garfield in a nom
committal attitude put the La Toilette
supporters on the defensive His visit
here was announced a week ago, after a
visit in New York with Mr.. Roosevelt and
Senator Jonathan Bourne of Oregon,
president of the National Republican
League. and it was feared some other
plan might be insisted upon. Mr.. Gar
field took no part in the open program
of the day, however, and the Endorsement
went through without hitch.
