THE MORNING OREGOXIAJT. - WEDNESDAY, APRIL 28, 1915. FAITH PUT 1(1 PARTY fFl'HS! STORK TH KM SOW 1 OIB SAFETY VAI1,TI ; 18 Dr. Cos Holds Progressives Yet Are Big Factor. ' REPUBLICAN RANKS DRAW Absolute Elimination of Reaction ary Principles Declared Essential to Prevent Being Wiped Out by the Democrats. ' That it is not a time for abandoning; the good ehip Progressive Party, but Is rather an occasion for awaiting; lve!opments six months will bring;,, is the belief of Dr. Henry Waldo Coe. National committeeman for Oregon of the little third party that is fast be coming a waif in American politics. . Dr. Coe says that he has no present expectation of rejoining; the Republican ranks. . However, he says he wants to do what Is best for the country and should it become obvious that the Republican party is intent upon true reform, borne out by the nomination of 'a Presidential candidate who is not reactionary and the enunciation of a platform that is acceptable to those In the PrORTesslve ranks, it would be '& sore temptation to return to the party in which he labored long; and faithfully. . Republicans la Progressive Ranks.. The Progressive party, he says, is composed of a mobile army that is, in large part, in the Republican ranks, but the Roosevelt organization, he be lieves, represents a determined protest against the tendencies of Republican ism of the past few years and this large element of Republicans will be Jn open revolt if a satisfactory man Is not named and a suitable platfrom is not framed. In this way, believes Dr. Coe, the Progressives will be a decided factor at the next election. "The Progressive party," said Dr. Cot, "is built on great moral prin ciples in which the mass of the people ore deeply interested. If the Repub licans are going back to the practices of the past, if they put up a reactionary for President and -the platform is re pctlonary, then, whether there Is a Progressive party or not, the Repub licHn party will be swept off the earth by the Democrats. "The Republican party today Is re actionary. Men of that tendency are in the saddle and it Is as natural for them to carry out reactionary prin ciples as it is for them to breathe. I have been a Republican almost all my life. I am proud of the traditions of the party and its glorious history. But tho party got into wrong hands, and I fpe at present no tendency of getting cut of that control. Principles Pnt Above Success. "The Progressive party is the only prty, outside tfce Socialist party, that offers much chance to the fellow who Is squeezed against the wall. I feel I have as much right to speak for the Republicans as for the Progressives, for 1 worked with that party for a long time. "The feeling out of sentiment that Is now going on is an encouraging thing. There is some degree of frank ness and earnestness to be noticed in these expressions. I believe that Mr. Hughes would not be an objectionable candidate if the platform were right. The Progressive party is working more lor its principles than for party success."

Tf estimates of City License Col lector Hutchinson prove correct, Port land will lose T5 of its present saloons on July 1 of this year.

DIECK ORDERS INVESTIGATION OF COST OF KIKE WALLS. Recent Blazes' Might. Have Caused Damage or Entire Losi of Span, Commissioner Thinks. As a result of a fire late yesterday at the west approach of the Hawthorne Bridge which threatened to spread to the bridge. City Commissioner JUieck has ordered an investigation to de termine the cost of putting in fire walls or taking other steps to safe guard the bridge. Need of such pro tection was seen in the fire yesterday and that at Albers Brothers' mill near the Broadway Bridge lait Sunday. - Commissioner Dieck-says the bridge approaches are of wooden construction and are not protected from fire which might start in adjacent buildings. Mr. Dieck says there would be nothing to stop a fire from sweeping the entire waterfront and burning out the ap proaches of all the bridges. Robert E. Kremers, chief of the Municipal Bureau of Highways and Bridges, has been as signed to make the investigation. - At the fire yesterday it was reported that had the blaze not been checked when it was. it would have caught the underpart of the bridge approach and within a few minutes would have burned out the entire approach and closed the bridge for an indefinite period. Need of fire protection on the bridges has been called to the attention of the City Council upon numerous occasion but nothing has been done. It was re ported by Mr. Dieck that had the Al bers Brothers fire of Sunday not been checked in time one span of the Broad way Bridge might have been lost. He says there was nothing to prevent the bridge from catching fire from the frame structures near it.
