SIX WILSON REASONS


 Dean Rogers of the Yale Law school doesn't hesitate to explain why he is going to vote for Wilson. He informs the editor of Zion's Herald that he hls six good reasons for acting that way.
 The Republican party needs chas- tisernent for it's long and earnest rep resenta ton Of mercenary interests. That's reason No. l. Reason No. IS that the people have been paying S2.0O0. 100000 per year through the workings of the tariff to privileged manufacturers and ought to stop it. The other four are that the Repubn- to make the rich richer and the poor poorer widens the social gulf; that there is danger of too much central ization of power under continuation uf Republican methods; that tho Igemocratic party will solve more eff ffcientIy the problems of the trust and that Woodrow Wilson IS spIen- didly qualified to handle the difficult task Of the presidency. It will be noticed that most of Dean Rogers reasons are those of negation, but form by a simple rearrangem ent of words if he had so preferred. And to those who might find interesting and profitable an estimate of Wood Tow Wilson, as compared with his 0p ponents. by a man who is not too aca- dernic and pedagogical to be recoS- nksed as an acute lawyer, gifted with the ability to make other men into acute lawyers, we commend the fol- lowing passage from Dean Rogers
 Woodrow Wilson possesses the. en- ergy, the ability, the courage, the independence, the respect for the con- necessary if one is to fill the high office of president of the United States. I believe that his personal qualities are such that he will be more successful in getting things done than Roosevelt or Taft Roosevelt certainly was not successful in get I-f- He was too mandatory and belliger ent. He was too abrupt and irritat- ing in his way of doing things. MT. Taft has been much more success full than Roosevelt in dealing with congress, yet in the most important Of all matters before congress, that of the tariff, he could not win congress Co revise the tariff downward accord ing to his own and his party's prom ise- There is no office in which per sonality counts for more than in the presidency, and Woodrow Wilson has the right personality. cOncede the charm of MT. Tafts personality. He has all the charm Mckinley had, and more. But a president needs to have. in addition to his charm, great political and personal tact and a reSO- lute will and determined purpose MT. Taft is a fine type of gentleman, and l believe him the most misrepresented and least understood man in our pub lie life. But if is not within his pow nr 10 accomplish the reforms which gre so necessary to the welfare of the American people at this time.
 We don't know whether or not Pro lessor Yandeu Henderson intended to make exception in favor of Dean Rogers when he pronounced the vote of the Yale faculty the poorest in New Haven, but perhaps he didn't. Pro- lessor Henderson is himself so fer vent in the cause of Theodore ROOse- welt that he would experience much difficulty in approaching Wilson's support.
