THE PROGRESSIVE CONVENTION.

The Progressive party of Maryland met in formal
convention, adopted a constitution and adjourned
Technically therefore, it has passed from the forma-
tive into the completed stage of organization. Its
future is on the knees of the gods.
What tine State needs is good government What
the public wants is the creation of political condi-
tions which will insure good government. 1t is in
terested in the conventions proceedings to just the
extent that they bear promise of results from which
it may benefit.
The sense of the convention that the party
should play the political game alone, forego tine hope
of immediate victory and trust to its own inherent
and proclaimed virtues to bring it to maturity Of
course, this a divided opposition to Derloc-
racy. 1t means the temporary confinement of the
fight for good government to the Democratic primar-
les arena. 1t throws temporarily the responsibility
upon the independent Democrats.
Had the Republican opposition in the past been
more potent, the people of Maryland could rot but
look upon its dissi patton with alarm. But in State
politics its influence as check upon the Democratic
organization mas been more imaginary than real
And now that it has been broken up-shoud he

affairs but what kind of Democrats shall do it, Re-

quent but that this has virtually been the question
all along only it has been easier, in the past for
the independent Democrats to shut their ears to l.
Meanwhile, the Progressives have long uphill
read before them. If they remain to their pro-
fessed conviction, tine State will watch their progress
with interest But TO their credit be it said that at the
formal organization it met one great peril of p,cal
parties frankly and avoided it determinedly. Be-
hind the comparatively peaceful proceedings, as the
proceedings of such conventions 60, there was
sharp contest as TO whether the party was to be con-
troed by its organization the organization by the
party The party won. This was at least a good
beginning.
