ANNAPOLIS, Nd, Jan. Io-Fear-
full that the Republicans would carry
out the Wilson ballot law as they
have in some OF the counties of the
State during the past seven years,
when, whereby thousands of voters
were robbed out Of the right of sui-
frage at each election by an unfair
ballot the Democratic majority in
the Legislature has hastily passed a
bill preserving the main features of
the law, but eliminating those loop
holes which enabled the Democrats TO
conduct elections fraudulently. In the
so-called Wilson law no party en-
blem or designation appears on the
ballots, and it applies to counties with
large colored populations. with one
xCeption-Garrett, which has a very
large white Republican vote.
The haste of the Democrats was
caused by the fact that Phillips Lee

crnor OF the State today. the second
Republican to fill the position since

when Taft was denouncing all progress
sives As pirates and traitors; that he
waited until little more than a year ago,
balancing the chances before deciding
whether to cast In his lot with the pro-
gressives in this presidential year, count
ed for nothing with the class Of progress
sives who wanted to 'win'-not a real pro-
gressive victory-just q victory.
And they did win precisely that kind
Of q victory. They carried overwhelm-
ingly the great standpat states Of ILL
nois and Pennsylvania That stamped
the Roosevelt candidacy with its true
character. No real progressive could
have secured anything like such a vote in
either Of those two states It had. how
ever, the outward seeming Of success,
the sort Of success that intoxicates-that
catches the crowd. It enabled Roosevelt
to win in two or three really progressive
states. Fortunately, 1t did not enable
him to secure the nomination. which
would have compromised the progressive
movement and defeated real achievement

Puts Blame on Roosevelt.

Upon Theodore Roosevelt and his fol-
lowers rests the responsibility OF having
divided the progressives in their first ma
tional contest. Stimulated by an over
mastering desire to win, they denounced
loyalty to conviction and principles as
stubborn selfshness In the convention
they put forward no platform-no issue.
They made no fight against the reaction
airy platform adopted. They substituted
vulgar personalities and the coarse cpl
thets Of the prize ring for the serious con-
sideration Of great economic problems and
for the time being brought ridicule and
contempt upon a great cause.
But the progressive movement does
not consist Of a few constituted lead
ers. It consists OF millions Of thought
full citizens drawn together by q common
belief in certain principles. They will
permit no combination Of special interests
and political expediency to secure control
Of the progressive cause which IL ulti-
mately to redeem democracy and restore
government to the people.

SENATOR la TOILETTE
DENOUNCES ROOSEVELT
Declares He Is Responsible
for Defeat of Progress
sives at Chicago.

Senator La Toilette has written the fol-
lowing editorial in the current number OF
La Follette's Weekly:
Until Roosevelt came into the open az
a candidate for the presidency five
months ago there was q strong ana rap
idly growing progressive movement with
in the republican party. It was based
upon clearly defined principles. 1t stood
forth as the representative Of modern po-
litical thought on fundamental democ-
racy. It had assumed national proper
tions It was united.
Into this movement, when 1t gave
promise Of national success, Roosevelt
projected his ambition to be President
third time. He spent weeks carefully
planning a spontaneous call for himself.
He responded by announcing that he
would be a receptive candidate. Hia
candidacy began to drag. He and his
friends were in despair. Then came his
defeat in North Dakota. He became des-
perate.
Enormous Fund Raised.
AN enormous campaign fund wa
raised Headquarters were opened IN
New York, Washington. Chicago and
states east and west Newspaper writer's
were engaged at large prices to boom his
candidacy. Special trains were hired,
and the receptive candidate started IN
frantic pursuit of the nomination. In the
history OF American politics there has
never been in a primary campaign for q
presidential nomination an approach &c
the extravagant expenditures made In his
campaign Men VIGOROUSLY identified
with the steel trust and the harvester
trust became his most active supporters
Leading reaetionaries. standpatters and
political bosses Of the Hanna and Quay
sort became his closest political friends
and representatives in many states.
"A number Of the newer recruits to the
republican progressive cause, men who
before 1909. with three or four excep-
tons, had either been Indifferent or OPP
posed to the progressive movement, be.
came the noisiest supporters Of Roose-
welt, the winner It mattered not to
them that Roosevelt had co-operated with
Aldrich on legislation during the entire
seven years he was President. They for
got that 1t was only when Roosevelt was
out of Office and in Africa, through the
united efforts of men who for years had
been fighting special interests, that the
