WILSON AND MARSHALL CLUB.

We are glad to announce that call
has been sent out to organize Will
son and Marshall Club on Tuesday ev-
ening, August 81.
The Advocate gives its best wishes
to this movement and will give the
club all the aid in it's power. We
believe in organization and we be-
lieve in political clubs. They are
very pleasant and instructive to those
who are connected with them, and
very helpful to the party.
Those who recall the wonderful
club we had here in Westminster in
the presidential campaign of 1908,
will understand what can be done in
such an organization under good
management. This is a Democratic
year and we want every man who
ever called himself a Democrat to
line himself up with his party in this
campaign.
Fall into this club movement and
let your name b. registered on the
first night.

WHAT WILSON SAID.

Much criticism has been directed
against Governor Wilson by unin-
formed men and newspapers because
Of alleged antagonism to immigra-
ton. In one of his books Governor
Wilson deplored the artifcially stimu-
lated immigration from Southern
Europe, and he particularly deplored
the practice of steamship companies
holding out false promises to people
on the other side, in order to induce
them to come to this country. These
steamship companies, through adver-
tisements and huge placards, gave
out the impression that every man
who came here would be given a farm
free by the government, and other
ridiculous promises. Governor Will
son wrote that this had the effect OF
bringing a lot Of people here who
would not have come had they under
stood the real situation.
Mr.. Wilson is not opposed to 1mmi.
grafton. He takes the position that
this country always has been and al
ways will be a haven for the op-
pressed people of the earth, and he
asks only sane and reasonable i'm.
migration regulation.
