WILSON on pemocrat1c Partr.

The other night DR.. Woodrow VIII
son, president of Princeton university,
addressed the Platnfield Democratic
club on the Democratic Opportunity. i"
The democratic party" said DR..
Wilson, sis now facing an unusual oo-
portunity and a very great duty. The
party in power has become entangled
with all sorts of interests, great and
small, has lost its freedom of choice
in hundred ways, and may be said
by reason Of its peculiar policies to
have allied itself with something less
than the nation as a whole. The dem
ocratic party, on the other hand, is
free from entanglements and is at
liberty to choose policies suited to
the national conditions as O whole.
The principle upon which the Aid
rich tariff is based is not the benefit
Of the country at large and the careful
stimulation Of its many and various
industries. but the benefit of those en-
gagged in the protected industries. the
incompetent along with the competent.
1t is means OF insuring profits to
certain bodies of manufacturers on the
plea that what they are doing adds to
the wealth and trade of the nation, but
without regard to the question
whether they are adding to the wealth
and trade of the nation In the way
which is most wholesome and most
suited to the common benefit.
There Is only one principle In re-
gard to these matters which the demo-
cratic party can consistently adopt. 1t
is perfectly possible to make all cor
porations so disclose the detail of
their organization as to make it evil

ments. in character and results as we'll
as in duration.
1t is because of the beneficence of
his administration, in maintaining POI
itical stability, promoting Industrial
and commercial prosperity and encour-
aging general social progress and ele-
walton, that we regard the record Of
President Diaz as extraordinary, If not
unparalleled. Historically there is, of
course, strong appeal to interest in
the spectacle of contemporary of
Santa Anna and veteran of the Mex
lean war still vigorously directing af-
fairs Of state and proposing to begin
his eighth term as president when his
S1st year Of life has been well begun.
1t is spectacle honorable to the man
himself, to the Aztec race from which
he is sprung, and to the commonwealth
which he has led from chaos to order
and from standardization to a high
place among the enlightened nations
of the world.

mayor Tom"

Mayor Tom Johnson of Cleveland,
Ohio, narrowly escaped being acciden-
tally shot by drunken foreigner Fri
day night. First reports We're that it
was an attempted assassination.
Mayor Johnson's friends and admir-
ers who are to be found wherever in
terest is taken in fundamental prin-
ciples of government, while regretting
the unpleasant and sensational occur
ence, feel keen delight in congratu-
lating Mayor Tom" that he was not
wounded.
Mayor Tom Johnson is doing more
than he can realize to create interest
In fundamental government principles
in other cities. His great railway
fights have met with defeat in Cleve-
land, but they have been tremendous
power in creating interest everywhere.
They have caused study of the prin-
ciples he advocates They have caused
interest and action along other John
sonian lines, and the good wrought is
vast.

To Advertise Religion.

A countrywide campaign of adver-
Using on the part of the combined Pro
testant churches is. according to an
exchange, planned to begin in January.
Various problems, racial, social, eco
nomic, and those which imperil Amer
lean life in general, will be discussed
broad fashion.
Here is strong indication of the
advancing religious sentiment. 1t fore
casts an awakening Advertising OF
this nature is not the especial need of
the hour, any more than it was need
decade ago. The fault lay in the
fact that the churchmen either did not
previously realize or care to take adj
vantage of the advertising columns of
the newspapers to promulgate impor-
tant beliefs and spread advanced
thought
1t is said that the advertising will
be inserted in newspapers, magazines,
periodicals and books, and on posters
and billboards. 1t will be inaugurated
under the home mission council, rep
resenting a membership of about 49,
100000, and constituency of 100000
600 or more. It will be directed to the
public at large; and such topics as the
labor question, the immigration prob
lem, the conditions in city and town
will also be discussed.
The campaign will be conducted I'M
der the general supervision of Rev.
Charles Stelzle, superintendent of the
Presbyterian department of church and
labor.
AS vehicle for missionary work the
newspaper cannot be excelled It has
never been tried In this wholesale
fashion which the churches now pro-
pose. but knowledge Of the efficacy
of well written advertisements leaves
no doubt that the plan will prove
great success. It will not only broad
en- the religious thought of the church
goer and gives zest to his enthusiasm
as worker, but 1t will reach those
thousands who never can be induced
to enter a church or listen to a SER
mon.
Much must depend upon the manner
In which the advertisements are writ
ten. In fact, the success or failure of
the proposition is likely to hinge on
this.

With his charcoal he sketched the
bench on which she sat, and. smiling
whimsically, he drew her figure, chang
ing her modern gown of dimity to one
OF flowing classic lines, and on her
head he put wreath of peoples. Then
he drew himself at her feet clad in
leopard skin and laurel crowned. and
on their faces was the radiance of love
and Of youth. And underneath the pic
ture he wrote, THE Gods of JOY"
There" he said as he showed it to
her. "I have changed the faces so that
no one will know. But you must hang
It in your room, and when you think
that the world is dark look at it and
remember that the day you tell me you
love me that day viii you and be

After that he saw little Of her. and
he busted himself planning the great
yearly festival that the Walfords al
ways gave to their neighbors. This
year it was to be a costume ball, held
on the lawn.

"You know father" Jackie respond

New York Tribune: The confidently

Porfrio Diaz lets it be known that he
is willing to accept another term as
president of the republic. That means.
we may safely assume, that there will
be no opposing candidate; that Cen
eral Diaz at the appointed time will be
unanimously elected to the presiden-
cy, and that on Dec. 1 of next year,
barring the inevitable uncertainties of
human life, he win enter upon his
eighth term of Office. He has been
president continuously since 1SS4-a
period of nearly 25 years-and he
served one term, or the major part of
a term, before that date. That is an
extraordinary record. We do not know

rowing about the room. fell on the
sketch that Philip bad made.
What u beauty. Why-why, the giri
looks like you. Jacket"
Does she?' asked Jackie iistlessly
But when Minette had gone she
studied the picture carefully. and all
that night she sat up. fashioning
gown of clinging white and weaving
pale pink peoples into wreath.
And so it happened that Philip Wal
ford. searching among the guests for
the one who meant everything to him.
found her on the bench in the rose
garden.
"Jacqueline." he whispered.
philip" she said. tonight I want
to be one OF the gods of joy"
"You meanY' radiantly.
"Oh. not what you think! Let me
tell you. Philip-let me tell you now.
I've got to marry some one else, and
you must forget me-"
Then she told him. leaving the worst
until the last. 81 wouldn't marry him
only-only father drinks when he is
unhappy, and he has his heart set on
my marrying Won Puttkamer."
"You are burning for martyrdom,"
said Philip hotly.
But she was very firm. "I told you
so that for tonight I might feel free.
and now let's eat, drink and be merry.
for tomorrow-who knowsT
He fell In with her mood. and they
went back to the ballroom and danced
and laughed, but all the time their
hearts were heavy and their eyes were
sad. At midnight he left her for an
hour, and when he came back he took
her to the stone bench. Listen" he
said. "Oh. Little White Lady, you are
going to marry me-"
mo" she whispered.
"Yes." Philip said. and all at once he
smiled down at her. "Oh. Jackie,
Jackie" be said, why didn't you tell
me long ago? Won Puttkamer was one
of my classmates. He Is in love with
a pretty fraulein, but they couldn't
marry because neither of them had a
penny. And he gave her up and came
to America. He thought that your
money would mend his broken heart,
and so he let your father arrange the
match. But now he's going to send for
the little fraulein. / have offered him
a place on my North Carolina estate,
and wedding bells shall ring for both

"But my father?' Jacqueline whis-
pered.
I'VE will send him down south with
Won Puttkamer. Those great old for
ests will heal all disorders of mind and
soul and body. and some day we will
follow them and work out all our
problems together, dear heart"
And in the comfort Of his great
strength Jacqueline rested content.
81 am so happy" she whispered.
"Oh, Philip, Philip, has the moment
come at last when we are really the
