WHAT ROOSEVELT SAYS OF The RESULT

What the Progressive party has
done since the theft of the Repub-
lican organ by the Republican
bosses at Chicago last June is liter
ally unparalleled in the history of
free government, worked under rep
resentative institutions.
Three months have gone by
since the new Progressive party
was founded. Without much mon
ey, without any organization,
against the entire organized polit-
ical ability of the country, against
the bitter hostility of 80 per cent
of the press of the country, against
the furious opposition of every up
holder of special privilege, whether
in politics or in business, and with
the channels Of information to the
public largely choked-the Prog
ressive party has polled between
four and four and one-half million
votes; has hopelessly beaten one of
the old parties, both in the electoral
college and in the popular vote, has
taken second place in the nation
and either first or second place in
some 81 of the 48 states.

this has ever before been performed
by any party in our country. Such
a feat, performed by volunteers

erans of the political arena-these
trained veterans including the en-
tire mercenary forces of politics
should be a source of pride, not
only to those who performed the
task, but to all believers in good
citizenship and in the capacity of
Americans for self-government.
During the campaign | said re-
peatedly that this was in no shape
or way one-man government, but
a movement for great principles-a
movement which has sprung as all
healthy movements in our democ-
racy must spring, from the heart
and conscience of the people them
selves. This truth must be kept
steadily before the minds of all of
US.
The Progressive party has come
to stay. If either of the old parties
will endeavor to put into legislation
any one of our planks, it can count
upon our hearty support in so do
ing, but we will not rest contented
until the entire platform is enacted
into law and becomes part of our
political system, national and state.
