WASHINGTON. June 1S.-During
his trip to New Jersey this week to
exercise his right of franchise and
vote in Jersey city, the President
secretary, Joseph P. Tumulty. took a
day off to go down to the shore and
select a summer home. He had one
in Avon blythe Sea last summer. and
that place caught the fancy Of the
Tumulty youngsters, and. as they are
the chief objects Of the secretary 5
heart, he has concluded to go there
again this year. But there was a
string attached to his return to Avon.
This time he desired a summer home
free from eats The secretary makes
it known that he has no particular
aversion. nor has he any particular
liking for felines. He does not mind
a single domestic cat around, but he
objects to droves. flocks, covies or
aggregatious OF felines. He made this
fact known to the agents with whom
he came in contact in his search for
summer home.
Therefrom comes this tale of cats.

would leave the capital for his week

distinct disappointment, is to put 1t
mildly.
You remark. quite naiVely, that
the letter sent out by your commit
tee was not intended to stir up
controversy between the Republican
and Progressive parties. That is
self-evident. 1t was intended to gloss
over the indefensible past and pres
cnt attitude Of the Republican party.
I say indcfensible, because even you
are not willing to defend it.
what is the common ground on
which the Republican and Progress
i've parties shall cooperate? If you
have such common ground in mind
why not let the public into the secret?
Your proposition so far is purely
negative one, viz: to combine to beat
the Democratic party. And after
that--what?
I'VE are then TO trust to the good
faith of the Republican leaders to set

are asked to trust the very men who
caused US to leave the party and

"If you think that the Democratic
party is not solving the problems OF
our time. and If you think that the
Progressive party cannot solve them,
then what do you as Republican
propose TO do to solve them?

wishes to leave things alone or to
