The steel tower at Nauen, Germany
blown down by the windstorm of two
months ago, is to be rebuilt. 1t will be
S121a feet high, which is midway be
tween the height of its comparatively
insignificant predecessor and that OF
the Eiffel tower at Paris. When the
new station is in working order the
Germans expect to establish direct
communication by wireless with the
United States. Every new wireless
station increases the likelihood that
wireless messages sent broadcast will
not fell to be received, and increases
the likelihood of relief for ships in
distress.

call for the convention at which 1t is
planned to name Theodore Roosevelt
once again for president.
Chicago is the place and August .
the date.
ITO the people Of the United States
without regard to past political diner
ences, who through repeated betray-
ais, realize that today the power OF
the crooked political bosses and OF
the privileged classes behind them is
so strong in the two old party organl-
cations that no helpful movement IN
the real interests Of our country can
come out of either;
who believe that the time has
come for national progressive move
ment-a nationwide movement-on
| non-sectional lines, so that the people
may be served in sincerity and truth
by an organization unfettered by Cd
legation to conflicting interests;
"Who believe in the right and ca
pacity of the people to rule them
selves, and effectively to control all
the agencies Of their government. and
who hold that only through social ana
Industrial justice, thus secured, can
honest property find permanent pro
lection;
~,
"Who believe that government Dy
she few tends to become, and has IN
| tact become, government by the sor-
did influences that control the few;
"Who believe that only through the
movement proposed can we obtain ID
the nation and the several states the
legislation demanded by the modern
j Industrial evolution; legislation which
shall favor honest business and yet
control the great agencies OF modern
| business so as to insure their being
used in the interest of the whole peo-
pie; legislation which shall promote
prosperity and at the same time Sc
cure the better and more equitable
diffusion Of prosperity; legislation
which shall promote the economic
well being of the honest farmer, wage
worker, professional man and busi'
ness man alike.
'Who believe that only this type OF
wise industrial evolution will avert IN
dustrial revolution;
"Who believe that wholesome party
government can come only If there is
wholesome party management In q
spirit of service to the whole country
and who hold that the commandment
delivered at Sinai, Thou Shalt Not
Steal applies to politics as well as
1 to business.
'To all in accord with these views
call is hereby issued by the pro
visional committee under the resolu
ton of the mass meeting held in Chi
cago on June % last, to send from
/ each state a number of delegates
| whose votes in the convention shall
count for as many votes as the state
shall have senators and representa-
lives in congress to meet in conven
