...most spirited and aggressive article in the number follows at once from the pen of Professor Hart on the theme, "Historical Significance of the Progressive Party." It is a trenchant and direct statement, which, after the Progressive manner, does not hesitate to employ picturesque language, nor to state with succinct boldness the grievances and convictions of the new party. It must be conceded that something of the rigour and vitality of the new movement is evident in the straight-forward phrasing and confident assertions of the article.
