cratic party regains its ancient estate
of worth. of dignity. Of power. It
escapes the thraIldom of little men
and ignobIe leaders. 1t takes as its
chief a man of that statesmanhke
quality which BELTS the presidential
office. The nomination of Governor
Wilson will unite the party. There
is not democrat who can find a
sufficient reason for withholding his
vote for such candidate"

Mr.. Wilson measures we'll up to the
personal standards set for American
presidents. /"
New York Herald ''The New Jer-
sey governor has won and won hand
somely. When it is Analysed it is a
personal triumph.
New York Independent" The
nomination of Woodrow Wilson for
president means new democracy.
1t means new epoch in American
self-government. The democratic
party at last has broken its shackles.
New York World He will be the
first president of the United States
in generation to go into office ow-
ing fayors to nobody except the
American people and under obliga-
tions to nothing except the general
welfare"
New York American THE New
York American will support the
nominee.
New York Press If Mr.. Roose-
welt makes an aggressive campaign
as a candidate on the third ticket,
Mr.. Wilson naturally would have a
better chance to hold progressive
democrats from going to the colonel
than any other man who was promi-
nent in the canvass before the Balti-
more convention.
New York Sun" The triangle is
now complete. unless Oyster Bay re-
treats. Meanwhile, whatever course
Colonel Roosevelt may prefer under
the circumstances, the Baltimore
convention has named the most
dang erous democratic competitor
the republicanticket could confront"
Chicago Tribune by thenomina-
ton Of Governor Woodrow Wilson
the democratic party has placed at
the head of It's ticket its most prom
ising leader and its strongest candi-
date. Governor Wilson represents
intelligent progressivism within his
party. progressivism which found
successful expression at Baltimore,
although it failed at Chicago. He is
a man of high personal character, of
distinguished intellectual attain
ments and brief but brilliant politi-
cal record. The democratic party is
to be congratulated upon the choice
of Governor Wilson. He also owes a
debt of thanks to Mr.. Bryan, whose
successful fight in the convention
against reactionary plutocracy will
go down to posterty as one of the
most dramatic exhibitions of the
moral influence Of a great leader of
the people our political history has
shown
st. Louis Republic Woodrow
Wilson, lawyer, scholar. historian,
executive. has been nominated by the
democracy for the presidency. This
is day of new tasks and new lead
ers. The record of Governor Wilson
in the executive chair at Trenton has
been a just source of pride to every
democrat. He has been firm on is
sues of principle and wise in matters
of policy. He is a man Of outstand-
ing intellect and Of spotless charac-
ter"
Buffalo Express The democracy
has a progressive platform and it has
done the right thing in nominating
clear-headed. rational, conscientious,
progressive and big man, who feels
that the responsibility he assumes is
even weightier than the honor he re-
ceives. Theodore Roosevelt, doubt
less, is deeply disappointed by the
vindication of democratic sanity at
Baltimore"
