Insincerity and ingratitude are the
conspicuous and fatal weaknesses OF
Woodrow Wilson. They have been
promptly recognized and appropriately
treated by the Democrats to whom he
has appealed for political Advertisement.
His effective platform art. his literary
skill. his much touted 'respectahillty'

of his character.

he was nominated for Governor of his
State. His campaign was paid for and
managed for him by men of open peck
ethook and ~tireless energy. His victory
was attributed to his own genius. He
entered office with a united, enthusiastic
party behind him.
Had he been Of the right stuff he
could have retained the undivided sup
port of his partisans and the respect of
independent men. Every measure he ad-
vocated might have been enacted, every
nominee he supported might have been
successful, and his own place secure, had
he been capable Of straightforward. toll
Grant. sincere conduct. He was not.
Not content with victory. his nature
demanded revenge. He felt that to ele-
vate himself he must destroy all who
questioned any detail of his projects or
opposed any item of his proposals.
"His facility in discarding his princi-
pies and disowning his opinions was
egualed only by his delight i'm betray-
Ing his friends. Always hc sought the
chance to hurt, and never to heal.
