on investigating the mine official
found that the blast had opened a
great circular cavern 345 feet In diam

For Strong Foreign Policy.
'SThe Wilson administration has re-
pudiated the faith of our forefathers
which made the American flag the suf-
ficient protection of an American citi
zen around the world. 1t has suffered
American men, women and children to
be slaughtered in Mexico and on the
high seas, American property to be de-
stroyed and American liberty to travel
and trade to be subject to the arbitrary
and lawless coercion of foreign bellig-
erents. 1t has stood by while the law
of nations disappeared from the earth,
without adequate protest or effective
resistance. 1t, first among American
administrations, has shown the supine
spirit. whose sure consequence is the
contempt of the world.
Our people are becoming impatient
of leaders who hold that comfort, pros
perity and material welfare are above
honor, self-sacrifice and patriotism. We
need a reawakening of older American
ism, of our belief in those things that
our country and our flag stand for.
People Seeking Leadership.
Our people are seeking leadership
leadership of the highest order and
most courage character, leadership
that will draft to itself, for the coun-
try's benefit, the unselfish and patriotic
services of it's ablest citizens. They are
demanding that principles anu policies
shall be proclaimed and carried out by
a man who has the wisdom to formu-
late them and the manhood to fight for
them.
"Keenly alive to this, we call the ma
tional convention OF the progressive
party to assemble in Chicago at the
same time the national convention of
the republican party is to assemble
there. We take this action, believing
that the sureSt way to secure for our
country the required leadership will be
by having, if possible, both the pro-
greSsive and republican parties choose
the same standard bearer and the same
principles. We are confident that the
rank and file of the republican party
and the very large independent vote of
this country will support such an effort.
Hints at Reunited Party.
I'VE pledge ourselves to approach the
consideration of the issues involved in
such an effort without any desire to
revive partisan bitterness. If the re-
publican convention is responsive to
the patriotic spirit that brought the
republican party into being and that
made it dominant for half a century; if
it meet this crisis in the spirit of broad
patriotism that rises above PARTISAN
ship, the effort for a common leader
ship will be successful.
las a result, when the conventions of
the two parties adjourn, the spirit of
confidence and victory for the leader
thus selected land the principles to
which he is committed will in itself go
far for insuring victory in November.
Should the effort fail, the responsibility
for the result will not rest on the pro-
gressive national convention on the
100000 voters who supported progress
slve candidates in 1912.
