II shall carry out the mandate Of
the Progressive Convention" said
Kinder, commenting on his candi-
dacy, adding: Neither Senator War
rem nor Robert r. Rose represents

doubtful whether l would file," Kin
dler continued. "There was no
foundation for Doubt has been
my intention to make the race for
Senator ever since l was endorsed
for hal office by the Progressive
Convention at Wheatland June 25th,
and have frequently stated that in
tention. 1t was only necessary that
1 should file my petition before the
expiration of the legal period. l
have filed within that period and am
officially on record as a candidate.
/ shall conduct an energetic cam
paign on as extensive a scale as my
permit. My campaign dol
lars I have to- dig out of the ground
and ! can cover only as much ter
ritory as my means permit.
ct was understood when the call
was issued for the Progressive Con-
vention at Wheatland that this con-
vention would endorse Congressional
candidates. Certain delegates sought
to- have Judge Rose endorsed for the
United states Senate; others prefer
red Mr.. O'Mahoney. But these dele
gates 500 disclosed that the con-
yention would endorse neither and
combined in a plan to have the con-
vention endorse no ne. Such a mo-
ton was made and discussed all
afternoon and was voted down, after
which I was endorsed for the Senator
shin and Mr.. U. G. A%pplegate was en-
dorsed for the House Of Represent
atives.

voted l stated emphatically that I'M
der no circumstances would l enter
the Democratic primary-that i was
in complete accord with the LaFol-
lette program and would support La,
Toilette for President II he entered
the race. I am in accord with that
program stronger than ever. LaFol-
iette Is in the race and l shall carry
out the mandate OF the convention"

II Ia n regrettable fact that In this

by mnjorities. minorities have nearly
always elected the officers. The only
way In which this can be prevented
IL for all OF the people 10 get out and
register and then vote on election
day. The sovereignty OF the voter
amounts to nothing unless the privil-
eye Is valued and carried into effect.
