party is too great 30 die because Of
one mans defeat The Colonel has

The Republican party is not one
man party. The Colonel's third party
will go like the Pop party, the free
silver party and all the other third
parties. The undeniable wrongs mat
have crept under the Republican tent
will be righted without the aid OF a
third party, and in the meantime,
many bright and promising man and
politician will have sealed his everlast-
ing political doom by following the
zig gag course of their leader. Within
a year Roosevelt, as one Of the greatest
will be the deadest and most discredit-
ed public men in America. He mas
staked all with blind fury and lost
all. He has charged for the presidency
like maniac, showing neither the
dignity or common decency expected

Office. He has been great. vain, self

of all those who so lovingly ministered
to us Though the Father has taken

The meeting Of the so called pro
gressives at Lansing last week Friday
TO discuss the advisability Of starting
a new party IN Michigan was a very
stormy affair. At one time IL looked
as If there would develop a general
row owing to the extreme difference OF
opinion that existed at the meeting.
Gov. Osborn was present and. follow
ing his previously published views,
advised against the formation OF a
new party. Frank Knox also held
against the necessity for such an or
ganization The view of the Governor
and Mr. Knox was violently attacked
by Sybraut Wesselius and Theodore
,loslyn. The latter made a personal
attack upon Governor Osborn that was
resented deeply by the Governor :
personal friends lead by "Puss Pal
mer and il looked for while as If a
general, all-around free-tor-all row
would ensue. The participants were
cooled off however, by the introduce
tion of resolution calling for meet
ing to be held under the oaks at Jack
son on July 30 for the purpose of
determining if ii is expedient at the
present time to start a third party in
Michigan.

The personnel of the progressive
meeting at Lansing last week cannot
help but call forcibly to the attention
Of the people the character OF the
crowd that is seeking new party.
Sybrant Wesselius, Theodore Joslyn
and others of extremely mediocre
calibre would like to get prominence
or an Office. Outside of Governor
Osborn and three or four of his most
prominent advisors, there was not a
man in the assemblage who has any
standing in his own community, They
are has beens who have been tried and
found wanting chronic Office seekers
who cannot win on their own ability
and seek 10 ride IN under Roosevelt
skirts. In fact. that is the general
character of the men VINO are tavoring
the new party movement all over the
United States
