e. at the head of its ticket it's most
promising leader and its strongest
candidate. -
Gov Wilson represents intelligent
progressivism within his party, a pro

with the nationwide movement to
overthrow the alliance between pr.
fessional politics and organized mon.

Woodrow Wilson in character,
temperament preparation, and fitness
is above the high average of Ameri
