The FL PasOans heartily applauded
the remarks of the Arizona man and
by their applause gave their promise.
Then the Keynote quartet sang sew

was made by Mr. Stiles that there
would be a dance. The 22d infantry

when 1t came to a stop almost an hour
late, and automobiles were offered for
everybody, but the FL Pasoans have
always made it a point to parade the
streets on foot, and made no exception
IN Prescott They marched up the
business streets Of the city and were
positively astOunded at what they saw,
the cleanliness OF the streets, the neat

magnificent lighting effects. The
courthouse, the chamber Of commerce
building, the business houses all were
covered with electric lights, and it was
no special effort in honor Of the Fl
Pasoans, it was just Prescott on an or
binary evening. After the parade, the
automobile ride up into the mountain

stood ready to do all it could to help

THE COMMITTEES ENDORSE.
NHENT

The Taft press of the state is maxi
Ing much ado over the adoption nv
the Republican State Committee of a
resolution endorsing the administra-
ton of President Taft and of his can
dldacy for reelection. A man from
Mars, reading the editorial vaporings
on this subject would be lead to be-
ncVe that Mr.. Roosevelt's cake in this
state is all dough, but those in touch
with the political situation know that
the probabilities of President Taft
carrying West Virginia are equal 90
those of a snow ball resisting the heat
of Bessemer converter.
1T will be recalled by the observant
reader of the daily press that the NIL
Jorlty of the old Republican Stale
Committee brought the pressure of all
uheir political influence to bear in the
several counties of the State to line
'hem up in the pre-convention period.
The result was that two out of eyerv
three delegates to the Huntington co.,
VeH'lon were instructed to vote for
delegates to the National Convention
favorable to the candidacy of Colonial
Roosevelt. And this too in spite Of,
or was it because of? the fact that
every daily newspaper in the State
espoused the denomination of President
Taft.
Bearing this in mind, is it reason
able to suppose that the new commit
tee reflects public sentiment any more
truly than did the old? or an<d,d
the National Committee when it closed
It's eyes TO patent facts and arbitrar-
lly nominated MT. Taft contrary to the
wishes OF four million Republican vot-
ers? Not so that any one could notice
it. ------

der the dominion of the bosses and Of
special privileges, and that both the
Chicago and Baltimore platforms are
fundamentally unprOgressive and reac-
tionary platforms, showing that it is
hopeless to expect from either of the
any real and far-reaching progressive
movement.
Therefore, I hope that in every
state the progressives, without regard
10 their past party affiliations, may
have the chance to vote at the polls
for electors who in the electoral col
lege will cast their votes for the ma
tional progressive candidate for Pres
dent"
Colonel Roosevelt added that he Is
perfectly willing to have the same
Electors on both the Republican and
the National Progressive tickets as
long as his supporters do not agree
that the entire electoral vote of a state
should go to President Taft if the Re-
publican ticket should receive the
greater number of votes.
Under such conditions any Electors
on the Republican ticket who wished
| to vote for Roosevelt would be free C
do so To make am agreement of the
kind proposed, in his opinion, would
give the entire movement a tinge OF
Republicanism and ALLEVIATE Democrat

having declared the nomination o.
President Taft fraudulent and havint
taken the commandment Thou shall
not steal as his prcccpt, he could no
consent to bargain with his oppon

THE NEW PARTIES

We are to have not only one new
party but two; and 1t is high time!
! In 1908 there were seven. million
and half Republican voters in the
| country. Last month Mr.. Taft was
nominated by five hundred and sixty
one delegates, of whom two hundred
| and eight came from ten rock-ribbed
Democratic states in the South that
contain, all told, less than four hun
dred thousand Republican voters. He
received one hundred and thirty-two
ballots from Iowa, Indiana, Michigan
and New York, where voters had been
carefully denied fair chance to eX-
press their choice, but where the COM
pleXion of Republican thought must
be, on the whole, about like that in
neighboring states that held primar-
les
In ten Republican states voters were
given a chance to express their
choice; and in these states Mr.. Taft
was rejected by two to one-carrying
only one of them, Massachusetts, and
that by small margin. These ten
states contain three and quarter
million Republican voters; but the Is
sue was settled for them by the
Southern mercenaries and the North
ern bosses. A very small coterie in
command of the machinery outweigh
ed millions of mere voters.
There is no need to go behind these
returns. Obviously we have here a /
trnue-blue Tory party, dedicated .oI
the principle that the wise and right
minded minority should rule. Wei
welcome this new party. Unquestion-
ably great many people want just
such an organization and they can |
bring to it an influence greater than
their mere numbers would give, in
Guiding the eager support of many
newspapers. There is a fair field for |
Just such a party; and if this party |
will occupy that field we shall be hap
py to treat it with the utmost re-
spect.
On the other hand, there has long
been need of clear-cut, out-and-out |
democratic and insurgent |
party. That such a party will even
Lually grow out of the occurrences at |
Chicago seems unquestimable. 1t isl
high time! The names of the old par
les have lost all meaning Either
name might stand indifferently for
progress or reaction-for La Toilette
Or Bryan, Or for Murphy or Barnes. |
A liberal or conservative might vote
either ticket, according to circum-
stances. We have long needed a party |
