Progressive criticized both Republican
and Democratic parties for failure to
solve current problems.
Republicans are nice people, nice
neighbors," he said, but their think
ing is in 1888" The Democrats "have
seen the problem" he conceded, 'but
it can't be solved the way 1t was in
1860"

cipal address for tonight at Rutland,
VT, where he will speak on the same
platform with Gov. Aiken before a

The question at issue now seems to

AS one hunter said, "These New
