CALLS 1T DIAB0LICAL LAW
Hotchkiss Attacks Election Act
Don'ts for Progressives.

chairman Hotchkiss OF the Progres-
sive State Committee. said yesterday they
would at once attack the constitution
atty OF the Levy election law. The point
OF attack will be the provision that re-
ouircs 100 signatures TO a petition for
independent county nominations.
"Why. that number would be about
one-half the voting population Of
county like Schuyler" said the chair
man. I'm Putnam 1t would be about
two.f1fths Of the voters. II would be an
obvious impossibility to put up ticket
by petition under such circumstances.
The law IL diabolical as It places the
control absolutely In the hands OF the
politicians. do not believe that the
courts will uphold that section OF the
law in any case
Hero are some "donts" issued by
Chairman Hotchkiss TO the Progressives
OF the state:
Don't take part in the committee or
convention meetings OF any other pohtlc"l
Don't fail 20 resign from the committee

F0RESTALLS Finn PLAN

BELIEVES HIM P0ACHING
"Sublimated Boss" Whose At
tempt to Dictate Is Insolent,
Says Chairman.

Writing to Henry G. WATSON. chairman
OF the Pennsylvania Republican State
Committee. in regard 10 the uncertainty
as TO the status OF the Presidential cleo
tors in that state. Chairman Hilles. OF
the national committee, calls William
Finn. the Roosevelt leader there. a sub
limated boss"
Mr.. Hillcs tells Mr. WATSON that he has
written TO each of the candidates for
Presidential electors asking him IL hc
II elected.
Mr.. Hiiles's letter is az follows:
| cannot find that Mr. Finn, since his
return from the convention of the Third
Term party, has taken any steps toward
remedying the conditions with respect to
the electoral ticket in Pennsylvania. As
] told YOU in Washington. carly in July,
| regard the position he has taken as
Cntenable.
Mr. Finn is a conspicuous leader in a
party which has seeded from the Re-
publican party. but which, II his plan
should prevail. would solicit votes through
the use of the title and emblem and can
didates Of the Republican party. He Is
the Pennsylvania representative of
party whose chief end is 10 bring about
the defeat Of President Taft and the i'm
pairment OF the Republican party. and
therefore his attempt to dictate TO the
Republicans In the matter OF their cleo
toral ticket is insolent and intolerable.
Simple Justice 70 All.
We have made a demand for candidates
for electors whose names shall appear
under the title and emblem OF the Re-
publican party. and under the names of
he al "a LOTT Of int M
10 elected. will vote for TAFT and Sher-
man. This is simple justice alike 10 tho
candidates and the voters, and any solu-
ton OF the matter which would deprive
any voter Of an opportunity 10 vote Tor
the Presidential candidate OF his choice
would not am convinced, be counten-
anced by the courts.
Mr. Films plan is to have the Rcpub-
lcans and in part Of those who have
left the Republican party. with the un,
derstanding that later these electors shali
determine for whom they VIII vote.
Under this plan, YOU would not hiloN
until probably a month after the election
whether your own vote would be counted
for Mr.. Taft or for Mr. Roosevelt
This applies 10 the vote Of every other
man VINO has been affiliated with The Re
publican party Of pennsylvania. Hence,
seven hundred and ATTY thousand men
are to be denied an opportunity 10 vote
for their candidate for the Presidency n
th, most important lection since the
Civil War. and why? Merely that Mr..
Finn may pcrpetuate his own leader
