Mr.. Wilson's Object.

people many times during the campaign
why he was seeking the Office of presi.
dent of the United States. Now that he
is elected, those who know him feel con.
fident that he will not swerve one iota
4 from his cherished plans
Briefly stated, it is Gov Wilson's be.
lief that the government of the United
States has not been free. under Repub-
| lican control. to serve the whole people
impartially. The government has not
been free because it granted too many
special privileges to particular classes by
means OF the tariff. His sole aim viii he
to free the government from present
tariff influences, that american indus
try would have new buoyancy of hope,
a new energy, a new variety" and with
the restoration of freedom he declares
would come "the restoration Of oppor-
tunity." As president he will do all
in his power to help all honest business
enterprises in every possible govern
mental way.
Gov. Wilson'S idea of a tariff is the
correct one. namely a tariff that will
build up home industries all over the
country. He stands ready to assist, so
fas as a president can, in having the
government go forward Immediately to
effect the reforms which the whole
country is waiting for and which all po-
litical parties have professed to believe
necessary, This is his program. Could

with members of the Nebraska delegation
eral hours today. discussing the demand

vention that Justice Daniel Thew Wright

lief was expressed by many labor men

would be enough to start impeachment
inquiries, and the state convention has
acted in such a way that the Nebraska

The representatives who have taken the
most active part in the investigation SO
far are Messrs. Lobeck, Stephens and
Mcguire, all democrats, from Nebraska.
They said today they are entirely will
ing to hear any one who can throw light
on the demand that Judge Wright should
be removed from office because of his
sentence on the labor leaders.
Neither Mr.. Gompers nor any Of the
Nebraskans would say positively what
went on during the conference, and it
was explained that, inasmLch as the in
auiry is unofficial. nothing definite would
be given out for publication. 1t is under

the case was presented by him with the
