Most OF us in Atlanta presumed

NO TICKET in MINNESOTA.
National Progressives Have Other
Schemes for That Territory.

Oyster Bay, July 25.-The National
Progressive party will not put
ticket in the field in Minnesota This
decision was reached today, at a
conference between Col. Roosevelt and
Lieut.. Gov. Gordon of Minnesota and
c. j. Knapp, member of the Min
nesota legislature. Mr.. Gordon said:
Il am able to state, now that the
conference is over, that we will not
have a separate ticket. The Progress
sives are in control of the Republican
party. Under the law 1t is necessary
TO run the names of Taft and Sher
man with the regular candidates for
Presidential electors. To meet this
condition the candidates already chos-
en-. almost all OF whom are Roose-
welt men, will resign and the same
men will be nominated by petition
as Progressive Republicans"
Under this plan, it was explained,
there win be two sets Of Republican
candidates for electors ON the ballot,
one of them running under the names
Of Taft and Sherman. the other TO be
designated as Progressive Republic
cans, under the name of Roosevelt
and his running mate. Mr.. Gordon
said that the chairman of the Repub-
lican state central committee. who
would fill the vacancies caused by the
resignation of the Roosevelt candi
dates for electors, was a Taft man
and would fill up the ticket with sup
porters of the President.
