LET GO THE PAST.

Build on resolve, and not upon regret,
The structure of the future Do not
grope
Among the shadows of old sins, but let
Thine own souls light shine on the
path of hope
And dissipate the darkness. Waste no
tears
Upon the plotted record OF lost years,
But turn the leaf and smile, OH smile to
see
The fair white pages that remain for
thee
prate not of tiny repentance. But believe
That spark divine dwells in thee. Let it
grow.
That which the uprea ching spirit cen
achieve
The grand and Alternative forces know
They will assist and strengthen as the
light
Lifts up the acorn 10 the oak trees
hight
Thou hast but to resolve and 10! Gods
whole
Great universe shah fortify thy soul.

COLBY QUITS COMMITTEE.
chickering's of Moose Leaders in Jersey
Cause Him to Resign.

Former Senator Everett Colby, friend OF
ex-President Roosevelt and one of the
original progressives IN New Jersey, re-
signed from the progressive State COM
mittee because of bick rings among the
leaders. Mr. Colby say he will continue
u progressive but will work in the ranks
About ten days ago NJ Colby was quo
ted as urging harmony between the re-
publicans. He has sine, to an extent re-
pudiated this Statement, but before he
even had a chance to say a word in his
own behalf the Osborn Record -Blauvelt
crowd sent copies of thu statement broad
cast throughout the state. in an effort to
dlscredit him and drive him out OF the
party.
Mr.. Colby refused to be driven, however,
and his resignation from the progressive
State committee is understood tn me a
polite hint to each member Of the triple
headed combination that ne don't care to
associate with them any longer.
Colby has been consistent worker in
the progressive ranks for the last seven
years. and he was the nrst member of
that faction in New Jersey to come out in
support of the nomination Of Colonel
Roosevelt.
PROGRESSIVE PARTY SURELY DIS
INTEGRATING.
(From the Boston Herald)
1t is decidedly impressive testimony
which Robert Luce, former lieutenant
governor of the State brings back from
the Chicago conference. 1t was made up
Of progressiv minded republicans led by
Cummins of Iowa and Hadley of Mis-
souri,, and included that group or north
western insurgents whose activities led
to the ultimate formation of the progress
sive party. Nearly all the men present
were Roosevelt adherents a year ago now
Many Of them followed him after the
conventions into the new party.
South Dokata, it will be- recalled, threw
it's electoral vote to Roosevelt. Its sena-
tors now say the State IS at bottom re-
publican. Mr.. Luce found the men from
North Dakota and Minnesota taking the
same view. Three Of the Michigan dele
gates TO the conference We're State sena-
tors who had been active in campaign
for highly progressive" legislation.
And, in securing it, they have efectually
reunited the party in that state, so
that, they say. the Bull Moose organiza-
ton will no longer prove a factor there,
The recent election returns support this
view.
State Senator Troutman of Kansas re-
portcd that siXty-three local officers had
recently signed a call for conference
on getting together. This had led to the
issuance of an invitation for a state
