WANING POPULARITY.

Horace Greeley. in his autobios-
raphy. says that reputation Is a

those who cheer US today are likely
to condemn us tomorrow. The
truth OF this observation is apparent,
which can be shown i'll the lives or
many men who have suddenly waNcd
and as suddenly waned.
The break between GOV. Wilson
and Col. George b. Harvey has
brought out Matt ]. Regain. leader of
the old Bryan strength in Wisconsin,
against the New Jersey man. He has
issued a letter to John \. Aylward OF
Madison, head OF the Wilson cam
paign in the state. declaring that un-
der no circumstances would he now
aid the campaign Of the New Jersey
governor.
Mr.. Regain originally was a Wilson
man. in his letter lie wrote That the
Wilson movement at first appeared
promising, but that recent events
have demonstrated that his policies
are not those Of The modern progress
sive democratic party spirit.
In connection with the above. it IS
stated that Henry Watterson hoped
to find in Woodrow Wilson another
Tildcn, but has found rather a
schoolmaSrcr than statesman. This
was the declaration OF The veteran

crat. in d statement made in Louis
