JUSTICE TO MANAGER ~C)w6s

Governor Wilson has doae well 70 lay at rest the rumor tt..t p.iricil bosses and jealous rivals were 10 com pass the retirement of ", am F. Me- Combs as manager of his campaign.
 To MT. McCombs more than to any single individual friend in the United States Governor Wilson owes his nomination at Baltimore.
 The labors of the young Princeton ian to this end were assiduous and extraordinary. His devotion amoh ted almost to consecration. His energy was prodgous and he displayed con- spicuous ability in every phase of :he campaign of which he was the recoE- nized manager and director from he beginning.
 Working at times almost s'Egle- handed and spending his time and nj, money with lavish loyalty. Mr. Me Combs impaired his health in the cause of his candidate.
 We felt sure that Governor Watson could not afford and would not con- sent to his retirement. The Ier.o- cratic nominee knows better than most men the character and capa 'ity of the young leader who pilotel his fortunes at Baltimore. Nothing snort of physical incapacity to go on with the work could possibly justify Me Combs enforced retirement.
 Least of all could Governor WilS)l at this stage of his campaign xfGrd to bring upon himself the char.e of ingratitude to a friend and benefactor such as this able and brilliant y)uaa lawyer has so splendidly demonst'ai- ed himself to be.
 The American took it for granted that the wise and discreet democratic nominee would allow no machine bosses or found friends to com pass the humiliation of the best and most effective friend that his political career has developed.
 Mir. McCombs deserves to finish the work that he began.-New York Ex aminer.

The impression that one gets of Woodrow Wilson at distance is .'lt he is man of splendid culture viii out being pedant Seldom has man more courteous or more truly gentle manly entered politics. At least this is the belief conveyed by reading out. side papers but 1t is more than Iikcly that Woodrow Wilson's face after all was the principal cause of the tre- mendous landslide. Look at that flcc and judge for yourself what a power photographs of it might be in q rlm paign. IL is one of those faces tha; show courtesy. humor. penetration urbanity and almost everything else that could make a masculine cru .;e- nance come nearer perfection.
 The sad fact about this ois t..,n must be the utter fall of a men like Theodore Roosevelt. 1dolized si, rr time ago he has now pullsi down the republican temple and been oi tcd ir its ruins.
