> Washington, March 9Th
, strength of Governor Wilson in al
, sections of the country is the strik
{ ! ing factor in the pre-conventiol
t presidential campaign, but n
where is it stronger than in New
! England During the past few day
United States Senator Gardner an5
! Congressman McGillicuddy Of
Maine, have indicated that the New
Jersey executive will carry that
state if he is made the party nOmi-
nee, and now comes Clarence E.
Carr, who was the democratic can
didate for governor of New Hamp-
shire at the last state election with
the prediction that Governor Wilson
will carry his state in the event that
he is chosen by the Baltimore con-
yention to lead the party in the
coming campaign.
Governor Wilson has the back
ing of more than eightyfive per
cent of the democrats of New Hamp-
shire" said Mr.. Carr, who halls
from Andover and who is looked
upon as the party leader in his
state Mr.. Carr is one of the most
enthusiastic Wilson supporters who
has visited Washington In a long
time.
THE people OF New Hampshire
have grown to admire Governor
Wilson," continued Mr. Carr !
They regard him as in every way
equipped to administer the duties of
chief executive of this great nation. /
He is constructive, not obstructive, I
safe not insane. He is broad /
fearless and courageos. He
las his opinions on public questions
md concerning public men ad their
attitudes on various propositions af-
Getting the welfare of the country
md he is not afraid to express them
lie is scholar, diplomat and a
tatesman. His record as governor
# New Jersey has proved all these
hings. The people of the country, in
ny judgment, have grown tired of
laving a man at the head of the .
government who cannot look at pub /
lie questions from every side. The
men. or a large majority of the 4,
who have occupied the white house.
have been too imbued with the idea
of self ACKNOWLEDGEMENT and party
gain to administer the duties of the
office to the best interests of all the
people concerned. Governor Wilson
is not this type of man. He repre-
sents the highest class of our citi-
zenship today. He appeals to the
| deep thinker as well as to the man
| who has not the time nor inclina-
tion to give to the study of public
questions His whole life has been
one of the Jeffersonian simplicity.
He is bound by no ties and has no
political complications on his hands.
He is one of the most independent
thinkers in public life today and
when once he has made up his mind
to pursue a certain course on any
public matter nothing that can be
said to him or no pressure than can
be brought to bear upon him can
turn him away from what he be-

bodies every attribute necessary to
a successful carrying out of the
principles enuneiated by the demo-
cratic platform ever since the party
came into existence. He has abso-
lutely no entangling alliances to en-
barrass him. Everybody knows just
where he stands on public questions.
Il think I am voieing the senti-
ment of three-fourths of the demo-
Gratis in New Hampshire when | say
that Governor Wilson is the strong

as the standard bearer of the party,
| I believe he will be elected, and
| likewise believe that he will carry
New Hampshire The democratic
party in my state has been growing
lin strength and influence from veal
to year, and with man on the
ticket such as Governor Wilson
have no hesitation in saying that WI
would sweep New England as vel
as every other section of the coun
