WILL Be
STAND PATTERS

indianapolis, Ind, Aug. 3.-Cheering
every mention of national ticket and
every denunciation of the "delivery"
of the progressive party to Charles E.
Hughes by the national committee, the
progressive national conference got un-
der way at noon today-one hour be-
| hind schedule time.
As the conference convened John NJ.
Parker, the vice-presidential candi-
date made known for the first time
his plan for the party.
"My plan," he said in an interview,
"'is to concentrate the progressive fight
on few states where there is the best
chance to elect presidential electors.
We would not have presidential can
didate and SO these electors could swing
to the candidate ready to make the most
concessions to progressives. If neith-
er side conceded enough and if we held
the balance of power in the electoral
college we could then swing the elec-
ton of president into the house of rep
resentatives.
This is the Louisiana plan.
! Definite action and any statement
that may be made probably will not
come until late this afternoon or to-
night.
Meeting Was Open.
Upon the demand of larger majority
of the delegates, the meeting was open
to all corners. Since nearly every dele
gate had message to deliver, the ses-
sion promised to be prolonged.
The three way split that divides the
remaining progressive party leaders was
emphasized today before the delegates
met.
Three programs were represented by
! the delegates. They were:
To let the national ticket go by de-
| fault and not hold another national
convention this year, but to call party
conference to be held soon after the
election and start an aggressive four
year fight for 1920.
To indorse the candidacy of Presi-
dent Wilson.
To order a national convention and
begin the best fight possible against
both old parties.
"There are only two possibilities for
this conference to decide: Shall we
have a national ticket or shall we not 80
said John NJ. Parker, the convention
nominee for vice-president to the Uni
ted Press.
Will Indorse Neither.
"There is no possibility that we
shall indorse Wilson or Hughes" he
continued. Parker said he believed there
would not be national ticket because
the party had no suitable man to head
it. He said he would refuse the nomina-
ton for president if it was offered to
him.
eff Wilson sees his opportunity he
will get a. shotgun and go after Kitchin
and Hoke Smith, who are opposing his
child labor bill,' Parker said. "He
should tell these two leaders that they
aren' fit to be in congress. 1t is my
shame that the southerners are the only
ones opposing this Legislation.

Many improvements
Added to Fairgrounds

Improvements that add much to the
Albert Park Fairgrounds have been
made this week and more are to be
added within few days. One that will
give especial pleasure to the young
sters is the flat bottomed boat or scow
that was launched yesterday, capable
of holding seven children and the
teacher. The lumber for the seow was
given by A. NJ. Hansen and T. NJ. Barr.
The boat is SO constructed that it can
not tip over, and is in every way abso-
lutely safe. II is three feet wide and
10 feet long. with wooden sides and
zine lined bottom.
Another improvement is the building
of boxes for the sand. For the benefit
of those who want to picnic, make eof-
fee or fry frh, furnace has been built.
made of brick and iron.

The gate leading to the grounds
from Winter street has been put in re.
pair so that autos may drive into the
grounds.
For those who enjoy water sports, the
new spring board is quite an addition,
and was much in use by the boys yes
terday. The water in the swimming dam
is kept sanitary, as it is run out every
day. Besides these improvements, q
dressing house will be put up for the
boys next week.
Fully $50 enjoyed the park yester.
day and this has been about the average
for tht past week.

LINER BRITTANIc SUNK

London, Aug. 3.-The liner Brittanic
owned by w. H. Cockerline and com.
pany, has been sunk, it was announced
today. The Brittanic was unarmed.
The liner Brittanie of the Coekerline
company was a steel screw vessel of
3,4S7 tons. She was built in 1904.
Hull was her home port. As the British
press bureau confines all announce.
ments as TO the loss of steamers to the
mere announcement of their being
"sunk" whether by mine or torpedo,
it may be assumed that the Brittanic
was torpedoed, in view of the state
ment that she was unarmed.
