community were anxious for an or
gan for their church, and in order
to obtain one gave box supper at
which prizes were voted to different
individuals. Some of the merchants
of Weatherford were importuned to
give the prizes and did so to help
the people of this community to Sc
cure the desired organ. The enter
tainment was given, the prizes
awarded, the money raised and the
organ ordered-from Sears, Roe
buck & Co.
Is it any wonder some of the mer-
chants object when solicited daily to
give this, that or the other? And
too, there is another moral to this
story. We should all patronize
those we would ask to favor US
were we ever in tight place. Is
it right to ask your home merchant
to credit you and then spend your
cash with the mail order house? Is
it right to ask your home people to
donate to an enterprise either in
cash or merchandise and then send
the money to some mail order house,
which has no interest in you or your
community who would not give

THINK THIS OVER

A recent editorial in paper pub
lished in Weatherford, Texas, strikes
the nail more squarely on the head
than any similar article along this
line that we have seen in the daily
press. 1t is so pertinent to the

exists, that we are constrained to

which show that they do not desire
to return to the republican party,
but intend to continue the fight
alone. They say that the differences
between the two parties are just as
fundamental now as they were when
the new party was organized; that
ii is impossible to compromise on
principles; that two parties which
differ on fundamentals cannot have
common candidate honestly.
Hon. Victor Murdock, who is now
serving his fifth term in the House
and who is the progressive candidate
for the senate from Kansas, made
the following statement: @
Please say for me that all amalga-
nation talk is rot. Men do not
compromise their principles for
selfish ambitions. such as the ac-
QUESTION of political office. The
voters of this country are subjected
to much cheap peanut politics. But
as rule the voters vote their con-
victions and principles. Parties are
formed on principles and conviction,
and not on personal ambitions.
The men who organized the
progressive party acted on principle,
They were firm in the conviction
that both the old parties are bad.
They are not going to change this
conviction and amalgamate with the
republicans, who have given no
evidence in the past two years of any
increase in efficiency or principles.
Not once has the party in the House
taken an affirmative stand in opposi.
tion to a big measure proposed by
democrats. They have shown purely
negative opposition to all big features
of the democratic program-tariff,
currency, canal tolls, trusts. The
progressives, on the contrary. have
offered definite alternative proposals
to every part of the democratic pro-
gram. On this showing where is
the ground for amalgamation?
When | went into this fight |
knew the new party would have to
wade through year of amalgama-
ton talk. Also, ] knew how | would
stand on the proposition. saw
enough Of amalgamation when the
democrats and popuiists got to-
gether."
Hon. Clyde Kelly, who has been
recently renominated for congress
by the progressives in Pennsylvania,
said in his interview:
The differences between the two
parties are fundamental and not
susceptible to compromise. The
only honest way by which the two
parties can hit upon a common
presidential candidate is through
the acceptance by one of the princi,
Piles of the other. If the republican
party accepts the progressive plat
form as its own, the form will have
been satisfied at least. Personally,
] should regard it as an eleventh
hour case of when the devil is sick
Il don't believe the people who
are supper ting the progressive party
on principle are ready for an amalga-
nation. They want the fight to go
on. At present, and in view of the
democratic program, there is more
of sympathy between progressives
and democrats than between pro-
gressives and republicans"
