Did Not Promise to Secure the Po-
litical Millennium. but They
Knew Candidate Was
Honest and Able.
BY OLIVER p. NEWMAN,


Author of 1.-THE Fortunes Of The Sum-"
What would yon think of candl'
date for governor who would get up
on :.e stump aud say things like this:
III you thiui, iEy election means
you will speedily be cured of all po-
litical ills that beset you, don't vote
for me.
IF YOU vote for me believing will
make all wrong right. you'll be disap-
pointed-you'll be c: c"ting yourself.
Crazy sort of vote-cal. hing doctrine,
that, isn't it? Most of the candidates
you'v" listened to said things like this:
=. yuu want to >~-e your political
ills. vote fer ne. When I'm governor,
everything will be perfect"
That's the keynote of the usual cam
>paign speech, but in the biffbang cam
paign that Woodrow Wilson made for
governor of New Jersey it wasn't
sounded once. He said TO the people:
i know what's the matter with New
Jersey, and you know what's the mat
ter with it. It's government has been
seized by corrupt corporations and un-
scrupulous political bosses. Ii | am
elected governor, | shall try to re-
store the government to the people,
but I'm not sure can do it. II you
elect me you will show that you want
these forces driven out and I'll do my
level best to help you, but beyond that
you'll have to take your chances"
Wilson was piling up, a few thou
sand votes or so every day with this
line of converse when George l.. Rec
ord. a progressive Republican OF New
ark, propounded to the candidate his
now famous list of questions One was:
DO you admit that the boss system
exists as | have described it? II So,
how do you propose to abolish it?'
Here was his answer to that:
"Of course / admit it. Its existence
is notorious. | nave made it my busi-
ness for years to observe and under
stand that SYSTEM and l hate 1t as
thoroughly as | understand it. You
are quite right in saying that the sys-
TEN is bipartisan, that it has virtual.
ly destroyed representative govern
ment and in it's place set up govern
ment of privilege would propose to
abolish it by the above reforms (pri-
mary law, corrupt practices law, equal
taxation and public service commits
sion), by the election to Office of men
who will refuse to submit to it, and by
pitiless publicity"
Another question was:
Does the Democratic platform de-
clare for the choice of candidates for
all elective offices by the direct vote
system?"
Note the answer:
Yes. | so understand it. Ii it does
not, do"
Yet here was the shot that gave
Smith, Davis and Nugent nervous
prostration:
Question: Il join you in condemn
ing the Republican Board of Guard
ians. Will you join me in denouncing
the Democratic Overlords as parties
to the same political system?'
Answer: Certainly; will join you
or anyone else in denouncing and
fighting any and every one, OF either
party. who attempts such outrages
against the government and public
morality"

This inscription, on the flyleaf of

best index of the personal life Of Gov.
wilson and Mrs. Wilson that could h.

The man who has earned the right

cess to his wife-and he publicly.
boastingly proclaims 1T. Woodrow
Wilson and Mrs. Wilson are -chums,
professionally and socially, and their
three daughters share in the chumship.
Each of the five members of the fam
lily does serious work for the advance
ment of human happiness, each is in
terested in the others. They share the
Joys of labor, and when it comes time
to play, they share the joys of play
riding, golfing. tramping, reading and
travelling.
Mrs. Wilson is very pleasant, and
cheerful, and charming, and she en-
pounds views on the weather with
wonderful vividness, but when it
comes to her husband, to New Jersey
politics, to the white house, to woman
suffrage and other subjects on which
the public would like to have her opin-
ions, she Is about as communicative
as Pierp Morgan.
And it's too bad, for she's a mighty
big woman who has done mighty big
things. Like her husband, she is
southerner, and like him, she was the
child of Scotch Presbyterian minis
ter. Like him, also. she has studied
politics and government from the bot
tom up and she has been her hus-
bands collaboration.
In her youth, Mrs. Wilson studied
painting in New York, and the Wilson
home contains many beautiful pic
lures from her brush. At Princeton
she was prominent in campus life. For
many years she has been an active
member Of the New Jersey board of
charities and has aided in the enact
ment of legislation to stamp out tuber-
culosis and promote the welfare Of
children.
Mrs. Wilson's daughters are now
grown young women, each busted in
her own work. and Mrs. Wilson has
more time than ever to work with her
husband and engage in public move
ments. When the girls were young
she devoted her energies to home
making, that her daughters might
grow up to be something besides so
ciety girls"
Eleanor Randolph Wilson, the old
est has her mothers talent for paint
ing, and is an art student at the Penn
sylvania Academy of Fine Arts in
Philadelphia.
Jessie Woodrow Wilson, inheriting
her fathers little I'd" democracy, went
to the Woman's College at Baltimore,
was graduated and became a settle
ment worker at '"The Lighthouse" in
Philadelphia.
Margaret Woodrow Wilson, the
youngest, has talent for music

LOVE AT ITS MARKET VALUE.
SaxOny Judge Borrowed Heavily to
Win American Heiress.


DRESDEN. Sept. I3-An unnamed
American woman figured conspicuously,
although she was not present. in the
district court here to day when Dr. Walter
Smell, former Judge Of that court. was
arraigned before his former colleagues
on charge Of obtaining 3l5. 900 by false
pretences. SHELLS defence was one which
is frequently urged in Germany in cases
OF this kind. namely, that he had con-
tract ed numerous obligations in the hope
of securing an heiress in marriage The
woman he expected TO win, Smell swore,
was an American divorcee whom he met
when he was returning to Germany from
Chicago. where he had been an attache
of the German consulate.
Smell testified that he had obtained an
Introduction to a number of Chicago
millionaires through Herr Rheinbaben,
the Pr,issian Minister Of Finance. and
hoped in that way to pave the way for
his marriage to one of their daughters.
Gould you have secured such lady?'
asked the presiding Judge
well. it would not have been SO diff
Guilty replied the prisoner.
The case, which was adjourned until
to morrow. seems to be going favorsbly
for Smell Several witnesses have testified
that he was on the verge Of a marriage
which would have extricated him from
his financial troubles.
