DOMINATION OF BOSSES
DECLARED REAL ISSUE
Progressive Party Convention
of New York County Elects
Chicago Delegates.

| NEW YORK, August 1.-The bull moose.
as the emblem of the new progressive
party. appeared in Hfelike shape here last
might at the convention of the New York
county organization to select delegates
to the Chicago convention.
| A stuffed bull moose of lordly size and
mien was prominent on the stage at Car
negie Hall, where the convention was
held. Red bandanna handkerchiefs in the
form of flags, and bearing the picture Of
Col. Roosevelt, also were much in evil
dence

colonel has espoused, were prominent on
the platform and stood at the doors, pass

State Chairman W. III. Hotchkiss called

car s. Straus. former minister to Turkey,
as temporary chairman.
Not Question of Rival Candidates.
| Mr. Straus referred to Col. Roosevelt
as 1.-The inspired leader Of the progressive
| cause"
| THE question is not one of rival can
| didates," said Mr.. Straus. IF it were, the
appeal would concern itself simply with
breach in the party. The real issue is
the representative and effective exponent
Of principles held by majority of the
plain people Of all parties. and necessary
for the welfare of the whole people. and
\ for the promOtiO nOf social justice under
our changing conditions and economic
development
| In order to carry forward this pro-
gressive work first and foremost 1t is
necessary to release the people from the
domination of the bosses and restore
their democratic rights to them so that
the people shall rule. Secondly. to elimi-
nate the Taggarts. Murphys, Cranes and
Barneses. That this cannot be done in
| the old party lines the conventions in
Chicago and Baltimore, and the insin-
| cere catch-vote platforms there adopted,
are proof.
| 1T Is easy to proclaim progressive
principles: 1t is quite another thing TO
live up to them. I am quite sure Barnes,
1 Murphy. Crane and Taggart all claim to
| be progreSsives Even Mr.. Taft an
| nounced himself as no longer a man OF
| straw but a progressive, and yet he
holds fast to nomination procured by
| fraudulent delegates-a nomination which
\ could not have been secured except by
substituting the tyrannical power and
| crooked methods of the bosses for the
deliberate will of the people,
Two Women Chosen Delegates.
| Twelve congressional districts all lying
/ WlCHlu new county, were repre-
scented at the convention, and two dele
gates were named from each district,
giving every delegate half vote. Among
| the delegates chosen are two women.
| Mrs William Grant Brown and Miss
Pauline Goldmark.
Among the declarations of the resolu-
| tons adopted is the following:
Resolved, We recommend that the
question of giving the ballot to women
be submitted to the voters of the indi-
vidual states at the earliest possible mo-
