Washington, D. C.-That Governor

other Democrat now proposed for the
Democratic presidential np1ninatl0n is
the opinion of Representative Robert
L. Henry OF Texas, chairman Of the

Mr.. Henry, who Is one of the leaders
of Democracy and prominently spoken
of as the permanent chairman OF the

the hundreds Of Democrats he met on
his trip west that the sentiment of
Democrats In the northwestern states
Is overwhelmingly in favor of the nom

SUPPORT
THE GOVERNOR
Vigorous Sentiment Express
ed by Writer in Savannah.

II am for Governor Woodrow Viii
son for president, says c. NJ. Chan
der, writing in the Savannah CGaD
Press, "and am glad that shall have
the opportunity on May l next for the
first time in my life Of voting in u
Democratic primary directly for the
man Of my choice. y
while for Governor Wilson. | am
not against any Of the prominent Dem
ocrats whose names are now under
consideration by the party. Messrs
Wilson, Harmon, Underwood and
Clark are most prominently mentioned
My preference between these is GOV.
ernor Wilson.
"First.-Because of his high personal
character. He Is an honest man Of
convictions and high ideals. He he
lieves in principles and is not afraid to
stand for them. ! may not believe in
his every political expression nor sub
scribe to every doctrine he breaches:
but, broadly speaking, he stands for
human rights and civic righteousness,
for the higher political life ana against
commercialized politics, and hence l
shall not stop to haggIe over minor dc
tails or remedies.
"Second.-Because OF his magnificent
intellectual equipment. He is Il philos-
opher, statesman. Intellectually ! do
not believe he has Il superior in public
life today. Within the realm OF politi-
cal economy | doubt if he has a peer
in the Democratic party. He is a stu
dent and Il thinker. He is not living
in the past. He is progressive.
Third. -BecauSe he has proved him
self a master In politics, meaning il its
highest and true sense. He knows
men, how TO reach and how to lead
them, and his lead is always toward
the higher Ideals in the politics Of
practical government.
"Fourth.-Because | believe he is an
available candidate, in the sense that
his residence Is in a state and a sec
ton in which we need to secure cleo
toral votes, and that he is not objec.
tionable to the masses of the party In
any section. lie is entirely free from
all past or present alliances which
could later prejudice his candidacy.
"Fifth.-There are thousands all over
Virginia, both Carolinas and Georgia
who knew his sanity father and his
no less sanity fa~ther-in-law. Our ia
theirs and mothers loved and honored
Drs. Wilson and Arson, who spent
their long and consecrated lives In the
spiritual and moral uplifting OF the
south and in the advancement of right
eousness in our midst. Such lives, In
peace and in war, endeared them both
to the church and state. Governor VII
son Is q true and typical son of the old
south, in whose life and work has been
exemplided the spirit of the new south.
And, lastly, 7 am for him because
OF all the public men in this country
| believe him to be the most typical
JefferSonian Democrat. / have read
after no statesman In these days whose
political doctrines and teachings SO
nearly track those Of that greatest of
oil democrats Thomas jefferson"
