that the democratic party repudiates
any alliance between corrupt politics
and big business. All things consid-
cred, it appears on the whole to be
the strongest nomination that the
democrats could have made for the
presidency Of the United States.

Boston Traveller (Rep.): The nomina-
tion Of Woodrow Wilson at the Balti-
more convention seems to represent
the best there is in the democratic
party Of the nation. It is demonstra-
ton Of good judgment on the part of
the democracy which can be set down
to it's credit.

Boston Herald (Rep.): Circumstances
had made Wilson the logical candidate
and the delegates at Baltimore had
sense enough to see it. Wilson enters
the campaign with undisputed elements
of availability. His later utterances
have been radical. He is thus in touch
with the present trend Of progressive
opinion. He will be regarded by the
progressives as one Of them. And
yet thousands Of people will insist
that the New Jersey educator, sobered
by the real responsibility Of great Of
fee, and respectful Of the constitution
al limitations which surround it, would
not prove disturbingly radical in the
White House. :. s

over as Woodrow Wilson, and he will
be known in history, we fully believe,
as one of the very great American
chief executives.
The democracy has risen to it's
finest opportunity in the finest way.
It has chosen as it's leader, after long

ply in the presidential contest that
for other reasons is the brightest the
party has known since 1892. Beyond
all cavil, the choice Of a candidate was
wise. He is great man in intellect
and character. He is a true man and
an honest man. He leads the progress
sive sentiment not only in the demo.
cratic party, but in the country, and
he is so well balanced in jud dgment,
so dicreet Of action, that his nomina-
ton will antagonize none but the ultra
reactionary and the predatory interests
that could not, under any conditions,
be kept long with an essentially pro-
gressive democracy.
is it exaggeration to say that here
is the greatest victory Of all the hard
fought fields Of politics? Against the
power Of money, of the established
order, against triple alliance of po-
lltlcai Influence, against the constant
cry OF press ably edited and widely
against bossism entrenched
and fully armed, against prejudice
adroitly famed afame, against SIAN
ders devised with master cunning.
against the practical plotter in the
privacy Of an upper room and the rant
ing Of the professional agitator in the
open, against the cracking of the whip
lash in the hands Of a hundred hench-
men, this man moved on to triumph.
We have not seen his like in modern
politics.
Boston Transcript (Rep.): The demo-

abundance OF opportunity for them to

tion day, but the startoff has been wise.
AS was set forth on this page a few
days ago, the nomination Of Woodrow
Wilson is the one from which repub-
leans have most to fear. This has
been patent to all impartial observers
for long time, and yet the chances
II his nomination seemed remote when
he convention opened. It took steady
pressure from the outside of the con-
Tention to bring about this result,
which was accomplished, as all con-
'ede, without any malodorous or other |
wise Objectionable features. In other
words, Wilson won the place fairly and

lances. This gives him most favor !!
