nations disappeared from the earth,
without adequate protest or effective
resistance. II, first among Amerl-
can. administrations, has shown the
supIne spirit whose sure consequence
IS the contempt Of the world
'Our people are becoming impa-
dent of leaders who hold that COM
fort, prosperity and material well
fare are above honor, self-sacrifics
and patriotism. We need n reawal-
eninE OF older Americanism, of our
belief In those things that our coun-
try and our flag stand for.
our people are seeking leadership
leadership of the highest order and
most courageous character, leader
ship that will draft to itself. for the
patriotic services of Its ablest citi-
Gems. They are demanding that prin-
ciples and policies shall be proclaim
ed and carried out by a man who
has the wisdom to formulate them
and the manhood to fight for them.
For AmalgamatiOn.
"Keenly alive TO this, we call the
national convention of the Progress
sive party to assemble In Chicago
at the same time the national con-
vention of the Republican party is
to assemble there. We take this ac-
ton believing that the surest way
to secure for our country the re-
quired leadership will be by having.
IL possible, both the Progressive and
Republican parties choose the same
standard bearer and tho same prin-
ciples. We are confident that tho
rank and file OF the Republican party
and the very large independent vote
of this country will support such
an effort.
I'VE pledge ourselves to approach
l. Il 20 T..
volVed in such an effort without
any desire to revive partisan bit
terness. II the Republican conven-
ton is responsive to the patriotic
spirit that brought the Republican
party into being and that made II
dominant for half q century; II IL
meet this crisis in the spirit of
partisanship, this effort for a CONF
mon leadership win be successful.
Spirit of Confidence.
"As result. when the conven.
tions of the two parties adjourn,
the spirit of confidence and victory
for the leader thus selected and
the principles to which he is COM
United will in itself go far for
insuring victory in November.
Should the effort fail, the respon-
SlplllIy Tor the result VIII not rest
on the Progressive national con-
Nention or on the 100000 voters
who supported Progressive candi-
dates in 1917.
"They, when called upon again
to do so, will as firmly refuse to
surrender to party machines. The
responsibility Will rest on other
shoulders than ours, and this will
be so apparent to the voters of the
country az to result in victory for
the national Progressive party in
next falls election. In this turn
ing point in world history we will
not stick on details. we will lay
aside craftsmanship and prejudice,
but we will never surrender those
principles for which we stand and
have stood. We Will follow only a
leader who we know stands for
them and IS able to put them
through"

Same Man as Moose.
Progressive Party's Action in Chicago Absorbs Pol
iticians Here-PowerfuI Movement for Nomi-
nation of Roosevelt Is Afoot

Moose leaders and has the sympathy OF
a great many Republicans. Nor are the
Republicans who favor the nomination
Of Roosevelt confined TO the element
known as progressive Republicans.
Many Of the conservative wing. men
who fought Roosevelt for years, have
gone over to him. II IL well known
that some of the strongest Republican
flnanciers in the country have become
impressed with The idea that Roosevelt
is the man to nominate.
But while the Moose action at Chl-
cago points to 2 powerful Roosevelt
movement, II points also to power
fhl movement Tor Hughes. Many con-
servative Republican leaders would
gladly see Hughes nominated and the
Bull Moose and progressive Republic
cans would regard him as acceptable.
Conservatives Haven't Quit.
Should Hughes later on put himself
absolutely out Of the running, then the
problem to be settled will be whether
to nominate Roosevelt or a progressive
Republican candidate, such as Cum
minis, Borah or Hadley.
The impression Is strong in some
quarters that Justice Hughes, who IL
certain to be talked more strongly than
ever, will later take himself completely
out OF the race, but the talk on this
IL so far speculative.
OF no little Importance in this con-
nection Is the fact. that Justice Hughes
is to make an important address Friday
evening before the New York State Bar
Association.
1t will not be political. but IL will give
the country chance to gauge the man
anew.
Friends OF Republican conservative
candidates, like Burton, Weeks, Fair
banks, and others have not given up
the contest by any means. But with
Roosevelt and the Bull Moose deter
mined not TO accept any OF these cam
didates their chances are not considered
improved.

ks Count Upon
TribeSmen to Help
Attack Upon Egypt

z lNDON. Jan. 12-The Turks are
counting upon the active support or
largo bands OF Senussi tribesmen in
eastern Tripoli in their contemplated
attack upon Egypt and the Suez Canal.
according to the Budapest correspond
ent of the Morning Post.
OF the Senussi tribesmen, who crossed
the Mediterranean Sea i'm an Austrian
submarine and visited Vienna, accord
ing to the correspondent, conferred
with Austrian officials before going to
Constantinople. where he is to be sup
piled with funds and to be informed
of the details OF Turkish plans for the
Egyptian campaign.
The Senussi leader told correspondents
that Nuri Pasha, brother of EnVer
Pasha, Turkish dictator, is in command
of the Senussl tribesmen. He said they

The decision Of the Bull Moose IN Chi.
cago to hold their convention June z,
at the same time as the Republicans,
and the indication by them OF a desire
to agree on the same candidate as the
Republicans. not necessarily Colonel
Roosevelt. formed an absorbing subject
for talk In political circles here today.
II overshadowed the talk about the
attitude OF Bryan toward Wilson,
which has been accumulated by the
disclosure Of the Wilson letter to A.
Mitchell Palmer in substantial opposl-
ton to the one-term plank of the Balti-
more platform.
The action of the Progressive party
leaders was not unexpected here, but
It makes It possible for the Republican
and Bull Moose political chieftains to
make their calculations on a more defi-
mite basis. 1t indicates more clearly to
Democrats what sort of a proposition
they will have TO face in the next cam
paign.
Move for Roosevelt.
Despite the fact that some Republican
leaders are still bitter toward Roose-
welt and the men who engineered the
Bull Moose campaign OF 1912. there is
undoubtedly a deep-seated conviction
among Republican politicians, as well as
third party men, not to mention Demo-
Gratis, that the Republican and Progress
sive parties are going to nominate the
same man.
This means in NIL reasonable likeli-
hood that the Democrats will be con-
fronted with an entirely different con-
test from the one of 1912, in which they
found their adversaries divided and
easy to defeat.
That a powerful movement for the
nomination of Roosevelt Is already on
is apparent. It 10 furthered by Bull
