THE PRESIDENTIAL CONTEST

Wilson. Harmon and Clark
have entered the lists in this
county for the Presidential
nomination. Three of the great
Democratic quartet from which
the next President will almost
to a certainty come. The other,
Underwood, will make no con-
test here, but will go into the
convention with staunch,
though not so large, following
as some of the others. Besides
these favorites, there is an
equal number of dark horses"
with Mayor Gaynor conspicuous
among them, every one of whom
is Presidential calibre of the first
class.
When has the Democratic party
ever presented for populer favor
such field or faced q contest
with such abundant promise of
success? Each of these men has
his distinguishing characteristic,
his peculiar element Of strength,
and his record of achievement.
Each, in the weighing in of
candidates, must have his weak
ness in the estimate of some, but
all are stars of the first magni-
tude, and any one fitted for the
leadership of a triumpant
Democracy.
At this distance of time and
with the two thirds rule obtain
ing in the Democratic Conven-
ton, it is idle to conjecture.
Wilson's dominant personality is
attracting the most intense
interest at more widely separated
points. He is the new spirit in
a vibrant Democracy who has
carried idealism into practical
politics and mastered practical
politics to the dismay and chagrin
of those who reckoned otherwise.
He is the most masterful man
today in the public gaze.
Clark's record in Congress for
seventeen years, struggling
splendidly through the dark days
of what seemed a hopeless
minority, yet always seeing the
light ahead, and at last emerging
as the leader of his party and to
his present exalted position, is
like an open book. All know it.
He, together with Underwood,
has brought order out of chaos,
harmony and perfect discipline
out of a sadly disorganized party,
and is the most popular man in
Congress, with a devoted follow
ing throughout the country.
Harmon, trained in the Grover
Cleveland school, has revolution
lied Ohio politically and turned
this State Of Taft, of Mckinley,
of Garfield, of Hayes, into a
Democratic State in two cam
paigns, with a majority in the
last of 100000 votes. There
must have been some perform
afree in the light of such re-
suits.
Underwood's matchless record
in Congress fixes his place high
on the list of Presidential eligi-
bles and in the confidence and
affection of his party.

such rapid rate that, announce his

WILSON TO THE FARMERS

Hnen Governor Wilson spoke to
the farmers of New Jersey he did
not tell them, IN well rounded
phrases, that they were "ths
creators of al. national wealth."
that they were the bulwark Of the
nations prosperity that they
were OF the oldest and most hunor-
ed OF ali professions or in
dustries, FOR that ION the shoulders
of the farmers rests the nations
destiny"
It would have been easy to talk
to them in that vein, and such
plstitudes might have been pleasing
to the farmers, although it is not
likely that many of them would
have relished hearing themselves
praised. and all vital issues avoid
ed. according to all traditions of
political speakers when addressing
farmers. Governor Wilson knows
that farmers nowadays want to
hFar logic, rather than well sound
ing, empty words.
he told them accordingly. that
while they had been busy feeding
the c,untry. they had neglected
another and very important part Of
their business. namely. that which
they ought to attend to as members
of the big firm Of Uncle Sam and
Co. AS a result of this neglect,
Mr. Wilson said. the other members
of that firm has assumed a control
ling interest, and had forgotten all
about the farmers, or had come to
think Of them merely as persons
whose function it is TO iced the
rest of the country. and incidentally
help feed the trusts.
The New jersey Governor then
went on II tell the farmers Just
how the high tariff rates affected
them. He told them that while
the farmer does not produce IN
Of the Things that derive q material
benefit from the tariff he consumes
all of the things. which, under the
protective system. are taxed.
Does it matter nothing to the
farmer that President Taft vetoed
the tariff bill' Mr. Wilson asked.
Why, every plouGhshare; every
tool and implement the farmer uses.
to say nothing of the trust made
harvester is dearer because If the

The American farmer pays more
for his trust made tool than the
Russian peasant pays for the same

tax. This tariff tax encourages
the use of cheap substitutes and
discoursges welrers of clothing

Governor Wilson suggested TO
the farmers that they break into
their W house. and get more of
the rent that is due them. He will
