That progressive party candidate

Cry OF the local progressives ever

and that the logic of this point OF
view was shared by the democratic
nominee was shown by the action OF
his friend In making the 800 offer
10 the Jefferson county politician, who
was to produce a candidate for con-
gress to make the split in the vote.
None of the local politicians would
commit themselves today as to wheth-
er or not the money would be paid.
because of the fact that Joseph Grail
was nominated at the Burlington
meeting. II could not be determined
whether the offer held good for both
meetings.
Friends of Mayor Elder, the demo-
cratic nominee, view the nomination
of third candidate, with much salts
faction, saying that the split will
mean many more votes for their man,
while the Kennedy people say the ex-
position of the campaign methods of
both the progressive party and the
democratic party will serve to make
Mr.. Kennedy's election certain.
