Wilson's Democracy.

On August 7, Gov, Woodrow VIII
son was formally notified Of his
nomination BY the Democratic Ma.
tional convention, In accepting the
nomination, Gov, Wilson delivered
his keynote speech.
Gov. Wilson said that the nation
has awakened to a sense Of neglected
ideals and duties, and the people
were never more responsive TO un-
selfish appeals or 10 arguments for
sincere Justice, The forces Of the ma
tion are asserting themselves against
special privilege and private control
They are sweeping away what is un-
righteous in order to vindicate the
essential rights Of human life, and
they are looking to the Democratic
party for honest and fearless guid.

In touching on the tariff he said
there should be an immediate down.
ward revision, In speaking Of trusts
Gov, Wilson said it will be necessary
to supplement the present laws with
such laws, both civil and criminal
as will punish and prevent monop.
oily, and restore the laws of trade,
which are the laws Of competition,
and of unhampered opportunity, I'M
der which men Of every sort are set
free and encouraged to enrich the
nation.
In speaking of the development of
our waterways, he said In the
case of the Mississippi river, that
great central artery of our trade,
the central government must build
and maintain the leyees and keep
the great waters in harness for gen.

lie said it was the duty Of the gov
ernment to share in promoting agri,
cultural education in every way pos
sible In closing his speech, Gov
Wilson who had touched on many
other great questions, said

THE pumber of Presidential tickets
in the field this year backed by
earnest supporters will bring out
larger vote than ever probably
considerably over 15,000,000 The
largest vote so far in any prcsiden-
tial election was in 1908, when
14,41S,79S ballots were cast, but
that was perhaps a less percentage
Of the aggregate of qualified voters
than at any previous election,
The Harrison times., 1912-08-17

THE most significant thing about
the National Campaign in its early
stages is the fact that hundreds of
thousands of Republicans, who never
before voted the Democratic ticket,
have voluntarily written Governor
Wilson and Governor Marshall that
they intend this year to vote the
Democratic ticket.
