 Helena (Mont.) Independent.-The ! people will name the democratic party's candidate for the presidency.
 In the next democratic convention there will be no boss whose voice will be heard above the rallying cry of real popular sovereignty; rnere will be no machine which will interfere with the registering of the peoples will.
 From Maine to California, from Minnesota to Texas, the delegates who will assemble to name the party's 1 Standard-bearer in the next campaign. will come with but one purpose In view-to restore real democratic gov ernment to power in the nations capi- l tol.
 In view of this situation, situation which Is most encouraging to the party, it is possible now to forecast | the result of the democratic conven- tion, and that forecast points uner- ringly to the nomination of Woodrow Wilson, former president of Princeton university, and governor of New Jer- sey. for the highest office within tbe right of any people.
 The democratic candidate must~Ae a progressive. Such a man Is Wood row Wilson, whose record in New Jer- sey has stamped him as one of the most progressiye nNn in pubHo life.
 The democrsds pndidate for the presidency must be unafraid and free from all influence of political bosses. Such man is Woodrow Wilson, who, in his own state, unhorsed a political dictator whose power no one before had shaken.
 People Have Faith In Him.
 The democratic candidate for the presidency must be essentially demo- cratic. Such man is Woodrow Will son, whose political ascendency has been accomplished only by reason of the faith the people have in him, and who will carry into the high office no secret bargains with those who manip- ulate politics for private gain.
 The democratic candidate must be morally and Intellectually fit for the place. Such a man Is Woodrow Will son, whose training enables him to give to the great problems of the day an integrity above question and a mental capacity and knowledge of public affairs which has probably not been excelled in an executive officer since the days of Jefferson.
 h Woodrow Wilson, there Is ample evidence of Americas ability to de- velop in each crisis in the nations 1 -ffo Q off+e rrI f. l. |, emergencies of his time Washington appeared on the scene, when the dis satisfied colonies needed a strong man and a military genius to lead them to national independence. Jefferson came when the new democracy needed 9 man to take the reins of the govern mept from the hands of an embryo no- biliiy and restore it to the people. Jackson came when the money power first asserted itself in the control of the American government Lincoln came when the union was about to break upon the rocks of domestic strife.
 The Man for the occaslon. And now, when greater problems than those which confronted Wash, ington and Jefferson and Jackson and Lincoln demand courage and ability of almost superhuman character; when from the length and breadth of : the land there goes up, as in 1860, the : prayer, God give us a man," when , plutocracy is enthroned in high places and when the life blood of the coun try Is being sucked by the vampire oi
 big business; when greed and avarice have been substituted for patriotism and justice; when sporadic and half ? hearted attempts to right existing /, wrongs only aggravate them; wher the nation demands again the genius : of a Washington, the faith in the peo pie of Jefferson, the courage of {
 Jackson and the sublime patriotism O.
 a LincOlD-at such a time as this 1t i.
 like watching the hand of a benefi = cent destiny to see Woodrow Wilson | loom large on the scene of nationa
 politics.
 Not only the Democratic party, bu O the nation, too, is blessed that such , | man Is available for the presidency. ' Let George Do It.
