We believe in the supremacy of the

We recognize that the Republican

AND THE PROGRESSlVES

We renew our allegiance to that
principle of our government which de-
clares that all its inherent powers are
of and for and flow from all the peo-
pie; We recognize that it is not alone
the prerogative but the duty of the
rank and file OF any party to sweep
aside such of its leaders as attempt TO
prostitute this essential principle.
We are determined to preserve for
our voters the right to determine all
party measures, the leadership, as
well as the selection OF candidates for
office. We believe III presidential pre-.
ferential primaries, and the selection
of all delegates to national political
conventions by direct primaries in the
several states.

We refuse to quarrel with either
capital or labor; we accord to each the
right to bargain with the other upon
all matters not of exclusively govern
mental import. While labor may have
temporary difference with capital
over any one of many correlated de-
partments of industry, and wise pub
lie opinion should be brought to the
amelioration and solution of such fric-
ton, yet any attempt upon the part of
labor to deny rights to capitay, and
vice versa, should be promptly rebuk-
ed by the sanity of the community
since without capital there is no call
for labor. and without capital, govern
ment will fall. for there will be absent
the incentive to command cohesion
and uplift.
We regret the presence of the labor
