Some of the stand-patters are
claiming: that the Progressives
stole some of the planks of their
platform: Well, maybeso it is
a good thing if they did steal
them as the stand*patters never
used them except for campaign
purposes—just to fool the voters
into voting the stand-pat tickets-
^The county Progressive con-
vention which met at Chickasha
last Saturday had, at the begin-
ning of the session 43 delegates
present and more came in during
the session. That is quite a
creditable showing since the
party is only in its second year
of age and it has sprung to the
second place as a party in the
nation. As a comparison: The
republican party which met at
Chickasha recently only had 11
members present, but you must
not confound the Progressives
with that old party, since many
of the members of the Progres-
sives are from the democratic
party as well as from the republi-
can party and is a distinct party
from either of the old parties.
It knows no such a thing as a
progressive democrat or a pro-
gressive republican.—Tuttle

biggest kind to attend the bi• r'
of the Progressive Party in O
lahoma City, but owing to ti-
fact that the date was Wednes-
day and according to the calen-
dar the next day is Thursday
and that said Thursday is press
day in this Temple of News and
Knowledge, we were up against
a hard proposition in attempting
to he in two places at once. We
were here in person but in spirit
we were right there in Oklahoma
City witn the rest of the patriots
who are for clean politics, rep-i
resenfative government and a
square deal. We attended the
county convention at Watonga
in the face of that blizzard and
would of faced two blizzards to
have attended the state conven-
tion had it been a seasonable
time. But this neck of the coun-
ty was well represented by tw<
progressives good and true, s.
no harm was did nohow.
J. H. Paulsen and E. E.'EJarle
of Canton, returned from the
Progressive Convention at Okla-
homa City by way of Fairview,
Thursday, to their home at Can-
ton via the Orient. What is the
mattfct, McDowell, that.you were
not present at that Bull Moose
■ gathering in view of all the loud
mooing which you have been do-
ing lately. You certainly have
an explanation coming.
Now, see here, ysu half-witted
cousin to a stand-pat democrat
applicant for post master, what
do you mean by spoiling our good
name. Take our purse, it's emp-
ty as a stand-pat platform and
jre never will miss it, but our
good name is something that—
well, read the court proceedings
in our late libel suit. You off-
spring of a rotten political ma-
chine that left the rank and file
of the party in the ditch, what
•re you up to, your neck in pro-
gressiveism? We wished the

The Progressive platform a-

effectually places the kibosh oi

party, the democrats because of
their indomitable enemy, the re-
publican party, on account o;
the old sectional prejudice be
tween the democratic and repub
lican parties; the republicans oi
account of the fact that did tlu
Progressives amalgamate with
republicans that the change t<
the Progressives would, be use-
less. There can be no othei
logical reason advanced for such
statements. In the convention
a platform was adopted denounc-
ing in uncertain terms any son
of fusion or amalgamation with
any other party; that the com-
plete list of candidates be placed
by the Progressive party.
The two old parties seeing the
unrest and dissatisfaction among
the people because of the heavy
burden of high taxes produced
by extravagance and maladmin-
istration of our state and nation-
al government, and the politi-
cians fearing the disintegration
and dissolution of the old parties
and their coming together on a
common ground in the Progres-
sive party, have in their desper-
ation sent out thru their partisan
papers misrepresentations calcu-
lated to appeal to the partisan
prejudices of the people to such
a length as to cause them to hes-
itate before deserting the par-
ties which have served their use-
fulness and lining up with a par-
ty that offers relief and a com-
mon ground upon which the peo-
ple from everv section of the na-
tion can come together and stand
together for tne emancipation ot
the tax-ridden, wage slaves and
abused citizenship of this state
and nation.
