New York, Oct 14-Evidence of the
widespread distrust among progressive
Republicans for Colonel Roosevelt and
disgust for the failure of the Taft ad-
ninistration to make good it's pledges.
Is coming daily to the Wilson National
Progressive Republican League in the
form of communications from Repub-
lcans all over the country. A great
majority of these dissenting Republic
ans say they Will vote for Governor
Wilson in the belief that he will give
to the country what 1t needs in the
way of progressive legislation. They
feel no such assurance from either
President Taft or the third term can
didate.
These communications show the in
tention of progressive Republicans to
put aside party ties in this election
and vote for Governor Wilson. Rev.
DIR. Josiah Strong, president of the
American Institute of Social Service,
a lifelong Republican and an active
worker in the cause of civic reform,
says:
GLAD TO SUPPORT WILSON.
Let me say that while I am very
glad to support Governor Wilson for
president, l am not at all sure that /
desire to preserve my identity as a
Republican. have very serious doubts
whether the Republican party is worth
preserving, and anticipate that the
