the date and location of the next Re-
publican national convention was an
inspiring occasion to Republicans who
attended. Victory was in the air.
Good feeling prevailed on every hand.
Men who were prominent in the Pro-
gressive party in 1912 were present
joining with the regulars who followed
Taft in 1912, in predicting victory for
1916. And there was no sign any
where of the party schism that de-
prived the Republicans OF victory in
1912.
Among the men present who were
prominent in the Progressive movement
in Indiana in 1912 was Horace Stilwell,
of Anderson, Ind. president of the
National Republican Union, an or
ganization formed by men represent
ing many states, TO reform convention
methods. Mr.. Stllwell was courteous

could be made such as his organiza-
ton recommends in the manner OF
making up the temporary roll in the
convention and of the selecting of the
temporary officers, it would prevent
such another division In the party as
occurred in 1912. The leaders of the
national committee showed every con-
sideration for Mr.. Stilwell, who came
from certain former Progressiyes to
present their views and while he was
soon convinced that the matter was
not within the jurisdiction of the COM
