'BARKIS IS W|LL|N'''

Chicago. June 3.--The progressive
party Is ready at any time to accept
a republican candidate who can fill
the place OF Theodore Roosevelt"
llp TO this time. however. the re-
publicans have shown no unanimity
on any candidate. nor have they pro-
vided o man who can fill Roosevelt's
place, This stand was outlined to-
day by George W. Perkins, bull moose
chieftain, He emphasized even more
the belief that Roosevelt Is the only
man.
1--WE stand on our January state
ment." Perkins said. that does not
necessarily mean Roosevelt, But the
word necessarily OF necessity implies
that some other man must be pro-
duced who can MI Roosevelt's place.
But there has been no unanimity OF
opinion on any republican candidate
other than Roosevelt"
WIN II. Childs. OF Brooklyn, pro-
gresslve leader, interrupted Perkins
to state that during the past three
months the sentiment for Roosevelt
had grown to practical unanimity all
over the country.
