erywhere to the Wisconsin result,
which is the first opportunity given
Democrats to choose as between con
testants for the Democratic Presiden-
tial nomination In North Dakota, the
only state that has hitherto held a
presidential primary, the Democrats
of the state agreed to give the vote of
the state to Gov. Burke as a compli-
ment with Gov. Wilson as second
choice. Hence the Wisconsin primary
was the first opportunity for a test Of
strength of the Democratic aspirants
with the voters acting as umpires.
Speaker Clark was selected by the
coalition as the standard bearer of
the opposition in Wisconsin. Har-
mon headquarters were closed when
the decision was reached and the Har-
mon leaders actively entered the cam

strength in Wisconsin was neglible,
and in this state, therefore, the Drei-

result:
1T has been my contention from the
beginning that Gov. Wilson could win
in any state if the people should be
given a chance to express their pref
erence for the Presidential nomina-

Wisconsin result is confirmatory of
the popular impression that Gov. Will
sen is the overwhelming choice of
progressive Democracy for the Demo-
cratic presidential nomination. In
Wisconsin Democratic Presidential
contestants met for the first time on
an equality. Neither Speaker Clark
nor Governor Wilson belong to the
state, and the decisive result in favor

be overlooked that Governor Wilson
has been misquoted time and again

yet in Wisconsin, a state with a very

Judge William r. Smith, of Texas,
who represents the largest Congress
sional district in the United States,
said of the Wisconsin victory for Gov
Wilson:
Weeks ago the opposition to Gov.
Wilson was forced to the conclusion
that the only hope of defeating the
New Jersey executive for the Demo
cratic presidential nomination was in
the combination of all other candi-
dates and territorial division of del
egates. The alliance that first
worked in secret finally, in it's des-
peration, began to play its game in the
open.
NOW the people of Wisconsin have
spoken and it appears that even the
combination, with its parceling out of
the West to Clark, the South to Under
wood and the East to Harmon will
not avail to defeat Wilson.
The victory in Wisconsin was not
over Clark, but over Clark and the
combined strength of all the allied
opponents of Gov Wilson. 1t was re-
gorded on beth sides as a decisive
battle and the victory must now be
accepted as decisive.
Mr.. Clarks' alliance with the re-
dictionary candidates makes it plain
to the country that he can not be con-
sidered a progressive, and that Gov.
Wilson is the only hope of the pro
gressive democracy"

Even greater interest than that
