Gratis, without regard to their pre-
vious party Affiliations.
81 feel that the time has come
when not only all men who believe
in progressive principles but all men
who believe in those elementary
maxims of public and private moral
ity which underlie every form of
successful freedom should join in
one movement.
Go Think 1t Over.
Therefore, I ask you to go to
your several homes to find out the
sentiment of the people at home,
and then again to come together.
II suggest by mass convention
to nominate for the presidency a
progressive candidate on a progress
sive platform, candidate and plat
form that will enable us to appeal
to the northerner and southerner,
easterner and westerner, Republi-
can and Democrat, alike in the name
of our common American citizen
ship.
Or Any Other Progressive.
''If you wish me to make fight
I will make it even if only one state
should support me. The only con-
dition I impose is that you shall be
entirely free, when you come to-
gether, to substitute any other man
in my place if you deem it better for
the movement. and in such case I
will give him my heartiest support.
Scores Convention.
wherever, in any state, the Re-
publican party is true to the prin-
ciples of it's founders, and is genu-
inely party of justice and progress,
I expect to see it come boldly into
the new movement, for the conven-
tion that has just sat in this city is
in no proper sense the Republican
convention at all. It does not rep
resent the masses of the Republican
party. It was organized in cynical
defiance of their wishes and it has
served the purposes only of a group
of sinister political bosses who have
not one shadow of sympathy with
the spirit and purpose of the Repub-
lican party of fifty years ago, and
many of whom have used the party
merely as an adjunct to moneymak-
ing, either for themselves or for the
great crooked financial interests
which they serve.
| Patriotic Duty.
II hold that We are performing a
high duty in inaugurating this
movement, for the permanent sue
cess of practices such as have oh:
tanned in the fraudulent convention
that has just closed it's sittings
would mean the downfall of this re.
public, and We are performing the
most patriotic of duties when we
set our faces like flint against such
! a wrong"
