STANDS WITH PEOPLE
Woodrow Wilson Essentially and
Fundamentally Democratic.
His Public Utterances on Matters OF
Grave Public Moment Have
Shown the Voters He May
Be Trusted.

One of the traits which shines
forth most conspicuously in the make
up of Woodrow Wilson is his mar
velous felicity Of phrasing. He is
speaker of rare attractiveness, his
POINTS always Clearly made and force
fully put. He holds with ease his au-
dieuce and never tires them. 1t Is
doubtful if the argument for 4 COM
mission form of government could DC
presented more attractively than was
done by Gov. Wilson in a recent Bal
timore speech when he said:
| heard a gentleman today-this IS
none of my business, and / bring it in
Internationally Uaughter)-l heard
gentleman say today that he did not
want to see a commission government

gentlemen who had all organization
that could capture all of the commits
siC~crs. | said to him, what bette
fun do you want? Let them have
them. 1t is all in the open, and you
will have the best sport of your life
to see them perform. (Applause.)
Give me the harness and the whip,
and do not care what team you
supply me with; just get in the COM
manding position, put curb-bits in their
mouths hold the reins-and | think
American opinion knows how to hold
them and have the whip, and if they
do not keep to the road am a poor

What's in a Name?
Boston (Mass.) Morning Globe

Boston (Mass) Morning Globe.
Woodrow Wilson effectively answer
ed William Shakespeare's query.
What's in a name?" in his talk before
the City club during his visit to Bos.
ton last week, when he said that in
talking with men of different political
designations he found that Democrats
and Republicans often think alike on
the fundamentals of government.
He said that it reminded him Of the
story of an old lady who was very
dear. Her son, introducing caller
to her, said: Mamma. this is Mr..
Stickpin."
What name?" she asked. putting
her hand to hear MIR. Stickpin,' the
son replied. MIR. What?" she asked
again. Mr.. Stickpin." replied the son,
fairly yelling the name this time.
20, dear" sighed the old lady, tits
no use. 1t sounds just like stickpin
to me-"
And SO it is when I meet a Progress
sive Republican and discuss the is
sues of the hour with him. am often
tempted to ask him again what lie said
he was, and when he answers Repub-
lican feel like shaking my head just
like the old lady and replying, %,
dear, it's no use IL sounds Just like
Democrat 10 me"

Woodrow Wilson's Tariff Views.

81 believe in a tariff for revenue
only but | recognize the fact that oui
existing economic system has beer
built on the opposite theory. Any
change in our scale of duties ought
to be brought about by prudent and
we'll considered steps, and with states
manlike regard for every legitimate
interest involved We ought not tc
impair our industries or imperil the
employment of our working people.
Everybody will agree that If our
tariff policy is indeed to be protec,
tive, and to seek the objects which
it has always pretended to seek, 1t
is perfectly legitimate that it should
pay a very careful regard to the bust
ness interests of the country taken as
a whole. But that is a very different
matter from paying regard to the in
dividual interests of particular under.
takings and of particular groups OF
men. The long and short of the whole
tariff legislation has degenerated from
a policy of protection into a policy OF
patronage"
Highland recorder. (Monterey, Highland County, Va.) 1877-1972, 1912-03-15
STATE owes HIM MUCH
Wilson's Splendid Record as New
Jerseys Governor.
College President, and Good One,
but He Also Proved Himself
Thorough Man of
Affairs.

The other day in hotel lobby, in
which politicians love to congregate,
the talk turned to presidential possi-
bilities. A man from the neighbor-
hood of Evansville brought up the
name of Woodrow Wilson.
Il don't believe that a man who
has been a college president would
ever make good president. Besides
what has he ever done?"
Just at that moment travelling
man was introduced who hailed from
Trenton, n. J.
~ don't know all he's DONE" said
the man, Il am not at home more
han a few months year The rest
of the time am 81 busy l don't read
the newspapers except for weather
conditions and headlines. Out this
way the newspapers don't print much
eastern news"
But you know some OF the things
he has DONE" said the man who was
acting as interlocuter.
What has he DONE" said the man
from Evansville, a smile of victory
playing over his face. They say
Wilson was just a college president
when he began and they said he would
never be able to put through the list
of progressive things that he stood
for. But when the Legislature met,
he put through lot Of things.
What wer> they?" A corrupt prac-
tice act. that grafters are afraid of;
workman's compensation act, pro-
viding for automatic payment for in
iuries and loss of life; reforms in rail.
road taxes; regulation of cold storage
houses; non-partisan ballots in elec-
tons; commission government for cit
les; a public utilities law fixing the
responsibility for law violations on
the officers of the corporations. The
bill gave a commission power to make
rates and to appraise the physic |
value of public service corporations.
There were lot more but | can't
remember them went away about
that time" But" said the man from
Evansville. THE Legislature did those
things"

from Trenton, cit had to-you see Will
