The Wilson Situation

There is a steadiness of purpose
movability of literalness which is
death. "A foolish consistency" as
Emerson said, lis the hobgoblin OF
little minds, adored by little state
men and philosophers and divines."
The man who says he never changes
is either fossilized or mistaken. What
change has taken place in Gov. Will
son indicates, in our opinion, merely
the ability to recognize facts. The APP
plication of his intellect to conditions
has destroyed the confidence OF those
who wish to maintain the established
order. Nothing more astounding has
happened recently than the way that
the Carnegie pension matter was
handled against him. We should like
TO ask publicly, merely for informa-
ton, whether Nicholas Murray Butler
was the one who gave out that story.
III not, we shall be glad TO try again.
The story not only made political use
OF private information, but practically
served notice on all instructors OF
youth everywhere. His change on the
initiative and referendum has been
shared by many open-minded- obserY=
ers. He believed that all government
devices should be organic-should be
the result OF face-to-face discussion
and William U'ren reminded him that
deliberation in our legislative commit
tees had become fictitious, while In
Oregon it had been possible to pro-
duce satisfactory amount OF debate
and consideration among the voters.
AS Ito the Joline letter, II is another
example OF plutocratic use OF a nat
ural event.~~At that time he was ex-
pressing, CASUALLY and privately, the
belief that mir. Bryan was too fertile
In creating issues. He realized then,
and perhaps realizes even more now,
the immense value to the country or
Mr.. Bryan's uncompromising honesty
and spiritual devotion. In the con-
troyersy with Senator Smith, Mr.. Will
son refused TO promise ANYTHING In
return for Smiths acceptance OF him
as a candidate. AS TO the break with
Col. Harvey, Gov Wilson has never
charged that Mr.. Ryan or Mr.. Morgan
had any influence whatever on Col.
Harvey but when he was, asked
whether the coloners support was
hurting him or not he answered in the
The Detroit times. [volume] (Detroit, Mich.) 1903-1920, 1912-02-03

affirmative. That is fact, and the
rest about coldness and ingratitude Is
rhetoric. The development OF Gov.
Wilson in the arena OF actual con-
temporary conflict grew out OF his ex-
periences at Princeton. He learned
that the university was to a large ex.
tent rich mans club. II Is located
about halfway between Broad-st. and
Wall-st. Its board OF trustees contain
some very fine men, but majority OF
one on critical measures voted for
what the governor deemed special priv
ilege. His struggle to make the uni
versity more democratic led President
Wilson 10 sharper realization OF the
forces that control so much or life.
He passed on TO the seat OF power in
New Jersey, and the struggle with
the machine there brought out the
same principles. He sees his former
friends of the wealthy class turning
one By one against him, and using
their adroitness to misinterpret his
every act. The Republicans have
number of strong possible candidates.
Mr.. Hughes has made a statement so
definite that It probably will stop all
consideration OF his name. in spite OF
the fact that he would make a ire
mendously strong run and a sound and
powerful president. Col. Roosevelt
and Senator LaFollette have behind
them long records OF tested courage.
wisdom, and usefulness. Senator Cum
Minis Is an able man, and there are
other Republicans who might be sue
oessful dark horses. In the Demo
cratic party the situation Is altogether
different. There the whole fight 10
centered on Gov. Wilson. He is the
one candidate OF whom the special
interests are afraid, because they
think he NAV be both nominated and
elected What they may later do
among the other candidates is uncer-
tain. Their first business is 10 All

John Steady, OF Columbus, seemed
In good health on this particular Mon
day. Three days later he went To the
undertaker's and made arrangements
for his own funeral. He named the

that he would be expected to take
charge Of his corpse on Friday. Ana
the corpse was ready. He did not
commit suicide-he simply died.
Such stories are not very uncom-

all human lives is not so accurately
dated, but so often that among those
familiar with scenes of dissolution the
thing creates no surprise; the soul
about TO depart knows that the sum-
mons Is coming.
IL may be that our natures are so
grossly attuned that only the most
fateful waves OF destiny can make
them TO vibrate. IL may be that the
