Candidate Wilson's Views

Woodrow Wilson. In entering
upon the national campaign, neither
1enounces anybody in particular nor
views anything In particular with
alarm. His speech accepting the
Democratic nomination gives one a
refreshing sense of clear visaged
mans confidence in the great forces
within the nation which stand for
progress. right and justice. Com
pared with the gloomy utterances Of
Mr.. Taft and the hectic periods OF
Mr. Roosevelt the speech of this
other candidate is extraordinarily
serene.
There are evils In plenty TO be
remedied, according 10 Mr.. Wilson.
but there is an aroused people. and
there are true servants OF the people

has cooled its fires. The whole body
Of the voters is seeking advancement
and is sitting In Judgment upon
those who strive for leadership
I'VE stand" says Mr. Wilson. "in
the presence of an awakened ma
ton impatient OF partisan make-be
lieve." So he does not appeal TO
partisans, but addresses himself to
the reasoning faculties OF all the citi-
,ens. On many great problems OF
he day his attitude is set forth with
satisfying clearness.
The tariff, says Mr.. Wilson must
be taken out OF politics. Democrats
! believe in a tariff for revenue, but
a tariff Of this sort under existing
conditions can be reached only by
wise and orderly processes and ap-
pareHtfy after long and careful adj

monopoly, and as II proceeds IL
should increase business, not cripple

Owing to the bucking conscience OF

could not hold a presidential primary

man will question that Roosevelt and
Wilson would have had large MAORI
ties at the primaries and probably
solid delegations.
AS II was in both delegations the
bosses got 20 out OF the 80 delegates.
The people got 10 district delegates
for Roosevelt and 10 for Wilson. The
20 Republican boss delegates were
for Taft; the 20 Democratic boss
