early action. They had definite pro-
gram. They believed that if the nom
ination of Colonel Roosevelt could be
brought about Thursday that there
would be no reason or excuse for Col
onel Roosevelt's refusal to accept it.
They then believed that one of two
things would happen in the Repub-
lican convention.
Hughes Would Refuse.
That it would nominate Hughes
who, seeing Colonel Roosevelt on the
Progressive ticket, would refuse to
run, or that the Republican conven-
ton would nominate a favorite SON
a weak creature who would make the
presidential race a three cornered
race, giving Roosevelt a chance at the
election, or who in the conference be-
tween the two national committees
could be easily pulled down, by pop
ular clamor for Colonel Roosevelt as
a fusion nominee.
Perkins Delayed.
Against that radical program Mr..
Perkins set up a policy of delay. He
announced at the beginning of the
convention, to a meeting of the Pro-
gressive national committee that the
nomination of Roosevelt should not
be made until Saturday. He believed

Chicago, June 12.-From the stand
point of a radical member of the Pro-

outcome of their national convention
must be merely a lamentation over the
spilled beans. From the first day of

his group and the radical group in the
Progressive party whose prototype Is
