WOODROW WILSON
 AND FAMILY HAPPY
Democratic Nominee Feels Honor and Responsibility
 Of His Victory
HAD RELEASED DELEGATES
Gave Up Hope at One Time Durina Race-FolIowine Stuck to

Western Newspaper Union News Service
 Seagrit, N. J.-Twenty newspaper reporters, sitting coatless and hatless in the lawn of New Jerseys little White House." saw an operator come out of the telegraph tent with vel low blank in his hand. Derectly he read:
 Wilson is nominated"
 When the operator looked up, the 20 men who had faced him a moment before were half hundred feet way, scampering for a spot on the New Jer- sey governor porch, where a short time before tall thin man in a grey suit had been sitting They found the porch empty, so they burst into the house.
 "Mr. President" they shouted, we congratulate you"
 They found the man they sought when his life as presidential nominee of the Democratic party was less than

country made for me. They have my heartfelt thanks. We never had money enough even to pay for an adequate supply Of postage stamps and litera-
 ture. was tied down here by duties Of the speakership. I could therefore aid my friends very little. They made
 the fight, gave me 100000 majority in
 the states where Governor Wilson and
 l competed in the primaries and caus-
 ed my lead on 90 ballots in the con- Vention, in nine of which I had a clear
 majority. Nevertheless, the nomina-
 tion was bestowed upon Governor Will son.
 T never scratched a Democratic ticket or bolted a Democratic nominee
 in my life. l shall not change the Democratic habit now. I ana too seas- oned soldier not to accept cheerfully
 the fortunes of war.
 T will support Gov. Wilson with
 whatever power I have and hope he will be elected
 T lost the nomination solely through the vile and the malicious islanders of William Jennings Bryan of Nebraska. True, these s,anoers were by innuendo and insinuation, but they were no less
 deadly for that reason. tSigned) Champ Clark"
The Nevada County picayune., 1912-07-12

minute old. He was laughing and chatting with his wife and daughters. The news, he said, had come mo- ment before over the long-distance telephone, after days of anxious wait ing.
 The honor is as great as can come to any man by the nomination of a party" Mir Wilson said, "especially in the circumstances, and I hope I ap- preciate it at it's true value; but just at this moment feel the tremendous responsibility it involves, even more than feel the honor. l hope with all ny heart that the party will never HrNe reason to regret it.'
 The governor was allowed only a brief respite before there poured in the deluge of callers. Between bursts of applause they called him Woodrow" and Governor" and "Wilson."
 Further yet down the road a brass band lay under cover.
 When the signal came, the leader stepped out and asked il they were ready. They were. So they marched down the road, with a growing entour- age, and stopped on the governors lawn. And there they played while the visitors applauded and the govern or beamed his thanks.
 Within the governors parlor there was a great crowding of visitors and shaking of hands and bestowing of all sorts of good wishes and predictions. The governors three daughters, Miss es Jessie Margaret and Eleanor, were quite beside themselves with happi- ness, while Mrs Wilson smiled and said she felt. "Oh, so solemn" and that the responsibility was almost as terrible as the suspense But the gov ernor acted like an enthusiastic boy grown dignifed, and said it was all most too good to be true.
 Miss Jessie opened the presidential campaign of 1912 for her father. She gathered a pocket full of Wilson but tons and pinned them on the callers. She did not forget four brawny rail road brakemen who came in to shake the governors hand.
 Had Released Delegates.
 All the days of waiting have not all been bright. At one time the gov ernor's chances seemed to have gone pIimmering when Clark boiled ma tority and he telephoned his managers at Baltimore to release his delegates, Word came back that they refused to he released and not man, he said, deserted him.
