" Events have shown that the pro

alternative to the triumph of the demo

have shown that even the application
of the principles which we then advocat

at Chicago.
"At the time many republican lead

that if I was not so nominated, I in
tended to accept the progressive nomi

nnd that if I was nut so nominated, I
intended to accept the progressive nomi

course, my fellow progressives were un

Under existing conditions, the nomi

regard Mr. Hughes as a man whose imh-

"It is urged ngainst Mr. Hughes that

lieve that the attitude of these profes

in the least to any liking for Mr.
Hughes, but solely to their antagonism
to me. They were bound to defeat me
for the nomination. The only way by
which they could ncliieve this object
was by supporting Mr. Hughes and they
supported him accordingly, without any
regard to other candidates. I need

follows: 'Can we not, forgetting past
