Hadley of Missouri Folds His
Tent and Silently Steals
Away Soon as Republican
Convention Adjourns.

~ HICAGO. June 23.-The progress
sive party, born last night, was
" dedicated today. In the pres
ence of perhaps 500 men, some
of them recognized leaders of the move
ment, others merely onlookers, the first
formal step was taken. Governor John
son Of California was empowered to ap
point a committee of seven to confer
with Colonel Roosevelt and formulate
plan Of action.
Here is the birth of a now party, -
said Governor Johnson, when this was
done.
"The movement is going steadily
ahead,' said James r. Garfield Of Ohio.
EThose who think this is flash in
the pan are mistaken
In the opinion of the leaders, the
new party enters the field with for
midable equipment at the outset. These
leaders, however, said that as to the
men who took conspicuous part in the
campaign for Colonel Roosevelt 8 nom
ination, each must speak for himself.
The attitude of Governor Hadley of
Missouri was the chief point Of discus
sion along this line. The governor left
town without waiting to declare him
self.

Most of the delegates wore flaming

Roosevelt to Decide.
No definite idea Of the plan to be fol

said several weeks may elapsc before
the programme is decided upon. Gov
ernor johnson in the meantime will act
as field marshal and in cooperation
with Colonel Roosevelt will decide upon
the membership of the committee of
seven to guide the work of organiza-
tion.
Colonel Roosevelt will leave for Oys,
ter Bay tomorrow afternoon and Gov
ernor johnson will return at once to
California.
Today's meeting was held in the
headquarters of the national Roosevelt

most prominent Roosevelt supporters
who had not left town. Seated at a
table with Governor johnson were Mr..

kato Commercial Club.

If people in Mankato who have a
little money TO invest and are seek
ing an opportunity to go into man
ufacturing in a small way, or some
other business that would be perma-
nent and have future before it,
would communicate with the secre-
tary of the Commercial club a good
deal of good might result.
The Commercial club is getting
applications frequently for just such
men. Sometimes men without any
money TO invest could be placed,
provided they are hustlers, but
chances to organize small COM
pany and manufacture some article
in good demand present themselves
frequently, and it is difficult to rem.
der assistance unless there is a lie
of people who might become inter
ested available.
The secretary of the Commercial
club has been endeavoring TO secure
such list, but this proves to be
uphill work. If people would let
the secretary know, the information
would be held confidential, and it
might result to the advantage OF
both the individual and the city.
