as the admission into this country
OF the criminal or disreputable of

public platform, expressed the glori-
Gus history of all these different
peoples of Europe, showing their
characteristics and their splendid
morality, and has he not Couched
this in language so eloquent, sincere
and telling as to make us all in
tensely proud of the respective
lands of our forefathers. He Is the
man that said that the Americans
are not a ace but are a people.
Meaning that from the infusion of
the best that is in the bloods of all
the nations of Europe will result
the highest type of the worlds citi-
zenship, and that each of the ma
tons are contributing their full
share in what will be this great and
glorious result. Why, take this

arose from the fact that he insisted
that the boys there should be meas

in this respect? Stop and think
and you will find that some of them
strove for his election as governor.

they think hat the intelligent for
eign born citizen, as well as the
American born citizen, cannot see
that the reason of their present OPP
position is because Wilson, as gov
ernor of the State, proved free and
clear from any control upon the
part of the dishonest corporations
or venial politicians of this state or
nation? Do they think that we are
SO lost in thinking power as not to
know that in this county particular

Wilson is specially due to the fact
that he said hat the platform of his
party upon which he conducted his
campaign should be lived up to in
spirit and letter if he we're made
governor; that if the people elected
him governor, they would also elect
him leader of his party. and that if
they did not want him to be the
leader of his party they should not

Has not organized labor in this
State endorsed the administration o
Governor Wilson in the most un,
qualified terms, stating that there
has never been a governor in this
State or Nation who had worked
more honestly and effectively for
rational labor legislation. This is
a matter of record. Can the work
