During the fiscal year several

VOTERS CAN GUST

SEN. DIXON
Have First Real Chance to Rule
With Roosevelt, Progressive
Chairman Says.
BY SENATOR JOSEPH NJ. DIXON,
Chairman Of the National Progressive
Committee


Chairman Of the National Progressive
COMMITTEES.
NTW YORK. Aug. 31.-No one will
dispute that the people ought TO rule
that they do rule 1t. Under the old
party governments there has been
continual struggle on the part Of the
people TO put aside the bosses and take
the government In charge. Sometimes
there has been a little yielding When
public demand for this or that measure
became insistent modified form OF It
has been granted grudgingiy
But never before In the political his
tory of this country has a party led
by man experienced in government
undertaken a program which, enacted
into law. will put the people really in
charge Of the business of the nation.
which is emphaticslly the business of
the people.
The reason for the overwhelming
victories Of Colonel Roosevelt in I'LL
nois, in Ohio. in Pennsylvania in Cali
fornis and other states was not en-
tirely personal Men voted for him
because they believed in the principles
he enuncisted. Honest political lead
ers gave him their support why?I
Because they knew that the time has
come at last when the way is open to
real popular government At last they
nave chance to really get at the
bosses.
Bosses See tho Danger.
Public sentiment has awakened the
latter to a sense Of their danger. They
know that what the people want must
come, and they must get out OF the
way and let II come
Twenty, ten, even five years ago. such
movement as that we are in could
not have been successful Buttressed
by selfish interests they blocked the
way. They controlled the machinery.
Without 1t no popular movement could
be successful
Now defeat after defeat has loosened
their grip. When an oligarchy like that
of Pennsylvania can be broken down
there is hope for the people in any
state in the Union
Men read, think and know about
politics and issues. They know what
measures they want. They know that
conditions are wrong Better still. they
know how they can be made right
A scientific program of government
which will give the people the real
power to rule has therefore been well
coined with enthusiasm. From every
quarter we find that our cause is grow
ing
No Hostility To Overcome
When our speakers go out they find
audiences in sympathy with them
There is no hostility to overcome. There
rs little prejudice to sweep aside.
The time for a change il ready. The
old parties have promised and prom
ised' they have never performed. Year
after year they have refused to let the
people have any real hand in conduct
Ing the affairs OF the nation. And that
Is merely taxation without representa-
ton--a thing the people OF this country
will never tolerate for long
knowing as all thinking men do
that change must come they welcome
plan TO bring 1t about peacefully and
quietly That is why our party is
growing so tremendously. That is Wbv
We feel confident that it is going to
succeed.
