A Splendid Press Meeting

The meeting OF the State Press at
Detroit was the largest and most sue

pie We have ever attended. The De-

talent from Gov. Woodrow Wilson
down was OF the highest order. De-
troit is great city, growing by leaps
and bounds, and the visitors from all
parts OF the state were made TO feet
that all Michigan belonged TO Detroit
and that Detroit belonged TO all Mich

mutual. President James Schermer-

Truth-That's All

A few days have given a pretty
good perspective on the Woodrow
WilsonIIarper's Weekly episode. So
Der second thought has modified the
criticisms OF DR.. Wilson, and 1t dawns
on uhprejudiced observers that giving
a frank answer TO a frank question is
really an admirable American trait
only too rare in politicians.
Ii has also become obvious that
most of the elegies delivered over
the political corpse OF DR.. Wilson last
week came from the same reaction
airy men and organs that shed Peck
sniffian tears over the exhumed anti
Bryan letter, and were Mortified a
while ago AT the revelation that a
presidential candidate had applied for
an educators pension from the Car
negie fund. The frequency and vehe-
mence or these Wilson obsequies show
the vitality OF Wilson's candidacy.
AS for the point at issue. II is clear
though much has been written TO OBJ
scure II. Wilson is progressive
Democrat, with progressive pro
gram. Harper's Weekly is a conserva-
tive paper. and is supposed, rightly
or wrongly. TO be dominated by IN

at the hotel Fairmont, Prof. w. D.

on transportation by water. He
told of the great opportunities to be
open to the Pacific coast on the com.
pletion of the Panama canal. He
said that water transportation was
the cheapest, and that there was only
one way that this section could get
it's share of the worlds business,
was because of its harbor. He said
that Spokane was anxious to secure
the next convention of the National
Rivers and Harbors congress and
wanted Aberdeen to assist, as il
would mean visit to the Harbor by
those attending the congress.
