No Third Party Needed Progressives who will meet in Tacoma tonight have a most vital proposition to settle, These men are repre enta- tives of the people of the progressive faith in this state. They were elected as delegates to the Roosevelt Aberdeen conven- tion. They have been called together again in this convention tonight to determine whether or not a third party ticket is necessary in this state; that is, to determine WHE THER OR NOT A THIRD PARTY TICKET WILL MAKE IT E/ TER FOR THE PEOPLE TO REGAIN CONTROL O THE STATE. The Star, together with the other leading progressive papers of the state, has maintained that no third party ticket, aside from the Roosevelt electors, is needed This paper con- tends that the people can select progressives from among the list of candidates, regardless of the party labels. Further, The Star believes that a third party, if put in the field at the clev- enth hour, will only serve to complicate matters and to make it more difficult for the people to wipe out the old standpat machine With leading progressives already filed on both the democratic and republican tickets, a third party would serve to split the progressive vote, and thereby increase the stand- pat chances of victory. “MARIA” AND HER SEVEN CHILOREN” BY FRED L.
