they were still dickering and trying
to find a way to meet the progress
siveS half way. They suggested that a
committee of five representing the
Deneen-Hill faction confer today with
similar committee representing the
progressiVes.
The temper of the Ickes forces, how
ever. was to ignore any suggestion
from the other camp but proceed at
once to the naming Of a full slate and
go it alone.
Action on the state fight will be
taken next Friday Mr. Ickes sent
word to all members OF the state COM
mittee to meet at his office on that
date to discuss the suggestion that
the prOgressives indorse Hull or Col
Onel Frank Smith for governor.
The referendum vote being taken on
this proposal by the progressive lead
ers shows hardly any sentiment for
Lowden and is divided as between
Smith and Hull. The tabulatiOn of the
referendum will be laid before the
state committee Friday
Calhoun Out for Brundage.

POLITICS

People are doing quite a little

topics these days, and they will
continue to buzz around until after
the years elections have become
history. Then they will promptly
forget all about it and the people
they have placed in office will pro-
coed to do as they please through
out their terms, and there are time
when what pleases the office hold

men who put them there.
Right there, Mr.. Voter, is wher
we make a big mistake. We SHOULD

He may be the governor, the con.

Sane discussion of people, anc

for it serves two distinct and

forcibly to the fore those things
that'are the best for US, and it lets
