UNITE FORCES TO
DEFEAT DEMOCRATS
Republicans and Progressives in
Maryland to Confer

Baltimore, Md. Aug, l3.-Whether
the Republicans and Progressives Of
Maryland are To bury the hatchet and
present united front against the
Democrats in the coming senatorial
election will probably be determined
definitely at a mass convention Of the
leaders of the two parties to be held
in this city tomorrow. The present
situation Is filled with interesting pos
sibillties and the result of the con-
ference will be of interest and impor-
tance not only in Maryland but in
ether state where efforts are being
made to amalgamate the Republicans
and the Progressives.
The political situation in Maryland
is attracting attention just now from
the fact that the new method of elect
ing United States Senators by direct
vote of the people is TO have its first
tryout here next November, when a
successor is to be chosen to the seat
of Senator Jackson, who was appoint
ed by the governor last year to fiji the
uneNpired term of Senator Rayner
oreaCn won TOR democrats.
The election will be given added
significance by the fact that it will
be the first test of public sentiment
since The advent Of the Democratic ma
tiOnal administration.
OF late years Maryland has been a
close state politically, though it used
TO be regarded as a Democratic strong
hold. Last year the Democrats won
an easy victory because about half of
the men who had been voting the Re-
publican ticket supported the Progress
sive party.
Until recently it was the belief that
three tickets would be put i'm the field
this fall and that. i'm consequence the
result would he the same as last Nov
ember namely. an easy Democratic
victory. But with the inception of the
movement to reunite the Republicans
and ProgressiVes the situation took on
d different turn. A straightout fight
between the Democrats and their OPP
ponents will mean an even and hard
fought battle. It is settled that the
Democrats. whoever their nominee for
Senator may be. will ask the voters of
the state to support the Democratic
party on the ground that the Wilson
administration is a success Naturally
there is The keenest sort of interest as
10 what the attitude of the Republican
opposition Will be toward the tariff,
banking and currency, and other re-
forms advocated by the Wilson ad-
ministration.
Prepare Platform planks.
\ joint COMMITTEES made up of lead
crs of the Republican and Progressive
parties has prepared a declaration of
principles to be submitted to the mass
convention tomorrow. The platform
confines itself largely to state issues.
on which the two parties are expected
to agree without much difficulty. In
regards to national questions the plat
form indorses nearly all of the i'm
portant reforms advocated by the nat
ional Progressive party. with the eX.
ception of the recall of judicial deci.
sions.
