  • Indiana Magazine of History an Improvement in the Bill but Finally Signed It
    INDIANA MAGAZINEOF HISTORY VOL. XVI SEPTEMBER, 1920 No. 3 The Progressive Party In Indiana By CARLPAINTER, A. M. The progressive movement in Indiana was simply a com- ponent part of the larger movement throughout the nation. It was broader than any political party, and embodied many fundamental measures and principles of political, social and economic reforms common to the plat-forms of parties for the preceding half century. The Republican party at its inception was prophetic of progressiveism. It undertook to introduce positive economic and social functions into the American gov- ernment.1 However, after a long lease of power, during which its supremacy was never seriously disputed, corrupt prac- tices had crept in. For some time there had been Republicans who stood for a change in their party’s leadership. These men wanted it to be more responsive to the will of the people at all times. There was a feeling that the government with its privileges belonged to those who best knew how to manage votes and voters. Corruption in state and local politics grew. There was little public protest. A long period of indifferentism followed. The old story of the man who was enraged be- czuse a corruptionist was sure to be elected mayor, yet stayed away from the polls because he had an engagement to go quail hunting, illustrates the attitude of many. Under such circumstances it became possible for political bosses to control elections in their own interests. Some of the earlier progressive Republicans were Robert &I.La Follette of Wisconsin who was defeated as a candidate for governor of that state in 1894.
