What every democrat should desire is a
united. harmonious party without regard
to the situation in the republican ranks.
1t should be the aim of every democrat
to promote that condition"
Representative Parran of the fifth dis
trict will be supported by the bull moose
leaders for Congress, and these same
leaders are now paving the way to let
out William r. Smallwood of Prince
progressive candidate for Congress in the
fifth, now held by a republican.
Parran Regarded as Progressive.
Col. Darlington. the progressive leader
OF Maryland, when asked about Parran.
said: "As we view matters, Parran is q
progressive. or anyhow he comes pretty
close to being a progressive. Most of the
people in Congress will be progressive be-
fore very much longer. 1t Is a movement
that cannot be suppressed"
1t will be recalled that some time ago
Col. Darlington gave out a statement in
to progressive candidates entering the
field against Jacob Murbach in the fourth
and Charles d. Wagaman in the sixth dis
trfct. Both these candidates won their
nominations in contested primaries as
prOgresSiveS, and there seems to be good
reason for the position taken by Col. Car
rington.

was concerned he would be satisfied
with four more years Of Taft.

President Taft has more than a fighting

The democrats. both regulars and
progressives, are up in the air on the
question of the campaign, and al
though the conferences are many and
prolonged there Is no real sign that
the two elements are going 10 get
