BULL MOOSERS IN
IOWA FLING LAST
DEFIANCE To c D P
Declare Against Any AmaIga-
nation and Draw Up Pro-
gram-CumminS and HadIey
Scored.

,DES MONIES. Ia. Jan. 10.-The
state conference of the progressive
party, before closing here. declared
itself opposed TO amalgamation with
any other party and made plans for
putting a candidate in the field for
every Office in Iowa to be filled next
November.
The conference unanimously adopt
ed resolutions as follows:
Presidential preferences.
Laws TO be passed only after
public discussion.
Control and regulation OF in
dustriaI combinations by govern
ment board.
Correction OF court abuses: in
ferior federal judges to be elect
ed by popular ballot.
Legal regulation OF labor con-
ditions; aboIishment OF child
labor; granting OF woman suf-
frage.
Creation of progressive clubs.
Initiative referendum and re-
call.
Republicans no matter how strong
ly imbued with progressive principles
will utterly fail TO instill progressis-
ism into the republican party de-
clared VIM. f. Cadmus. a national or
ganizer of the new party.
He likened Senators Cummins and
Borah and former Gov. Hadley of
Missouri to Gamaliel. who would not
forsake the Hebrew faith at the be-
hest of his pupil Paul, to Erasmus,
who would not follow Luther and to
Webster and Clay.
Not One-Man Party.
Neither Of the old parties, under
stand the real significance Of the
progressive movement" he declared.
Some benighted ones think IL is a
movement born out of the colossal
ambition of an arrogant and disap-
pointed man. The progressive be-
lieves in complete control Of the gov
ernment by the people.
I'VE maintain that the Sherman
law, SO adeqI ate in the eyes OF the
old party as regulator OF business,
is farce and a fiasco," he continued.
1T has dissolved Standard Oil, and
other trusts only I'm name and not in
reality. The progressive party holds
that this Is the age of cooperatio lon
and com binatiOn: that our duty is
regulation not dissolution: that Ahe
field of competition should be fairly
open to all without dishonest favor
to any. We believe the tariff should
be eliminated from politics. all to-
gether; that II is not a partisan blet a
business proposition"
Mr.. Cadmus declared that among
the prOgreSsiYes there would be no
compromise. The party had a plan
OF campaign and a battle cry. he said,
and it's leaders were united from 'sthe
militant Johnson Of California, to tthat
modern tribune of the people, Roose-
welt of Oyster Bay"
