Where He Stands and
Why He Does So.

Trenton, Sept. 19:-Woodrow
Wilson, the democratic nominee for
governor of New Jersey, will hold an
important conference on Friday OF
this week with the members of the
Democratic State Executive Commit
tee.
AT this meeting plans for the cam
paign will be fully discussed, and it
speech-making tour of the state will
be agreed upon. f. asEH
1t will be a vigorous, not to say
strenuous campaign. Since the day
of the convention urgent invitations
have poured in upon the candidate
from democrats In all parts of New
Jersey, who are anxious to have him
address the voters Of their respective
districts.
1t Is apparent that many local
leaders believe Wilson's campaign
and his speeches will help their local
tickets, and they are not backward
in saying so.
Several invitations have been re-
ceived in which Mr.. Wilson Is re-
quested to speak on specific dates
for celebrations and events the dates
of which have already been deter
mined, but with two exceptions the
candidate has kept his calendar
clear, believing that he should put
his time at the disposal of the state
committee as fully as possible.
The two exceptions are the open
ing of the new court house at Jersey
City on September 20, and Cover
nor's Day, at the Interstate Fair, in
Trenton. Mr.. Wilson will deliver
non-political address to be given in
| Jersey City tomorrow evening in
honor of the opening Of the court
| house
Colonel Mahlon r. Margerum, sec
retary of the Interstate Fair Asso-
citation, has sent Mr.. Wilson very
urgent invitation to be present on
| Thursday, Governors Day." at the
big fair in Trenton, and this invita-
| ton has been accepted.
Mr.. Wilson's present plans include
the campaigning of the entire state,
with at least one speech in every
county, preferably the county seat,
and additional speeches in the more
populous centers. In fact, he will
probably visit as many cities as the
time and his endurance will permit
This will enable him 20 meet the vot-
ers face to face and to familiarize
himself with the views and needs of
the people He says he anticipates
this Swing around the circle" with
keen pleasure.
"It will be a novel experience for
me to go out and solicit votes, but l
like to meet people and | want to
become acquainted through the
state. For this reason, in addition
to desire to make my views more
thoroughly understood in New Jer-
sey, / will seek to reach each county,
and not attempt to conf1ne the cam
paign to the more populous centres"
This was DR.. Woodrow Wilson's
statement when asked for his plans
for his campaign. DR.. Wilson, how
Fever, will not enter upon his speech
making until his itinerary has been
prepared and submitted to him by
the state committee
DR.. Wilson was asked for a more
detailed expression of his views con-
cerntng existing political and busi-
ness evils as touched upon by him in
his speech accepting the nomination.
| One of the points he brought out was
the better control of corporations by
the state. Asked how he would ac-
complish this, DR.. Wilson said he
would compel the filing of detailed
reports with the secretary of state
| showing the origin of every phase of
a corporations management, includ-
ing the authority of it's officers and
department heads, and when overt
acts were committed, he would pros
ecute the individuals. "Of course"
| said he, "it will be argued that dunn
mics perform all functions of a uues-
donable character But after a few
of the dummies have been sent to
the penitentiary, substantial sup
ply of them will cease. Yet I would
go even farther, for juries some
times refrain from furnishing these
tools, and / would make the law al
low additional latitude in the intro
duction of testimony that might tend
to show the criminality of hidden
conspirators, and l would put in the
power of the prosecuting attorney
the privilege of altering indictments
to include officials who crawl to cover
and might be located were the laws
of evidence more elastic"
Asked if he would restrict swol-
len fortunes. DR.. Wilson replied:
Swollen suggests something extra
ordinary. But we are not concern
ed so much with whether these for
tunes should be surgically treated;
rather with the means to be en-
ployed. No one grudges Edison a
penny Of his honest earnings. In
building up the industries of the
country and thus enhancing the well
fare of all, there can be no objection
to the resulting income. The quar-
rel is with the man who amasses
millions and acquires tremendous
fortune without really adding to the
nations growth or development.
Don't declare that all rich men are
thieves, for 1t isn't true; say that
John Smith, who is rich, is a rascal,
and prove it.
Asked his opinion of the outlook
for democratic success throughout
the country, DR.. Wilson said; There
would seem to be no doubt of demo-
cratic success. considering the pres
