also of Sussex They insisted that
as they had endorsed the Republican
State ticket In it's entirety they GER
tanly were entitled to have the Con-
gressional nominee. The Republi-
cans refused to concede that, and the

without anything further being
done. The Republicans said there
would be no further conferences on
the subject The Proeresaives ex-
pressed the hope. however. that there
would be "A solution OF the dificulty.
There was no suggestion OF the
selection of a third man as a COM

volved around the question whether
Hall or Townsend should get off.

Progressives insisted that consistency
compelled them to refuse to sacrifice
Townsend for the sake OF a Republi-
can.
