PROGRESSIVE PARTY TO DECIDE
PUTTING COUNTY TICKET IN FIELD

Chairman Price, his friends say, has
wisely decided not to referee this live
~ dispute and will place it sQuarely
up to the central committee for de-
cisio.l.
Today Howard Brooks, former secre-
tary of the Progressive county commit
tee and chairman of the city commit
tee. in a statement urges Progressives
to affiliate with the Republican party
He writes as follows:
1.-THE results of the elections in the
various states in 1914 is evidence to
me that there is not room for three
political parties, and that the Repub-
lican and Democratic parties will con-
tinue to be the dominant parties in the
future as they have in the past.
Il think the Progressives can &C.
complish more now by joining the Re-
publican party and fighting within that
organization than they can in any
other way. I believe the Republican
national platform and presidential
nominee in 1916 will demonstrate that
the party has needed the lesson it was
taught in 1912, and has profited there
by.

REV. w. J. CRoNiN-The Catholic

seven thousand souls in our churches.
This year buried fifty-two members
Of st. Mary's, and baptized sixty-eight
infants and sixteen converts. In the
parochial school we now have 3S2 pu-
pills.
Ed COOPER, .Grocer-While do
not think general conditions in the
grocery business during the last year
were as good as several years ago,
yet all indications point to 1915 being
considerably better than the year just
closing. There is nothing apparently
to hinder 1916 being banner year.

a different story to tell next Sat

want to be there to boost the local
