! WINNING WITH WILSON.

(From the New York World.)
That the Wilson administration
still has the confidence of the PEG:
pie is shown by the triumph Of the
Wilson democracy in the states
where the issue was made.
The governor-elect Of Massachu'
sets is a Wilson democrat. Mr..
Foss's attempt to engineer panic.
breeding reaction in favor Of high
tariffs was a contemplate failure
The governor-elec OF New Jersey
is a Wilson democrat. A familis1
coalition between! Jim smithism and
stand-pat republicanism was as in.
effectual against Fielder as it had
been against Wilson himself.
The United States senator-elect in
Maryland is a Wilson democrat. In
a state where Gormanism is still
rampant he made his fight boldly as
a champion of the administration.
The mayor-elect Of New York City
is Wilson democrat. AS a Fusion
candidate he received many repub-
lean votes, but his triumph is due
to- the fact that in his character and
purposes he represented the Wilson
idea in municipal government as op-
posed to the system Of Tammany.
When great financial, commercial
and industrial centres thus reaffirm
heir adherence to the high standards
set up by President Wilson, there
IAN be no doubt that the wholesome
principles by which he is actuated
have met with public approval in
their practice as well as in their
promise. No other president ever
had a more impressive Endorsement
in an off year.
There is nothing in these returns
20 encourage those who would resur-
rect tariffs written by manufacturers
md their dough-bag lobbyists and
attorneys Equally significant is
the absence of anything like ap-
prevail of the men who in sinister
ways are trying to defeat currency
reform.

THE. ATTITUDE TOWARD MEXICO
~ (Harper'S Weekly ..ss. M

What the administration has done
has met the approval OF the most
impartial citizens, and especially of
those citizens who believe in the
new attitude toward war. Gone is
the day when it is accepted with
out question that thousands Of lives
should be sacrificed, millions of
hard-earned dollars wasted and the
hearts of men degraded in order to
protect a few investors who knew
what kind of country they were 60
ing into' when they made their in
vestments, or in order to enable
Americans to live in such a coun-
try without running the risks natural
to their residence The present adj
minis tration has a great constructive
work to do at home. 1t leads and
interprets the wishes of new
America. There could hardly be a
greater disaster than for the atten-
ton OF the country and the work of
congress and the president to- be
turned away from task which will
make men happier to the exciting
but degrading occupation Of war.

cause it's adversaries united, but
they are not likely to unite very
often, while Tammany is always

members. Helps the deserving 10

In that way it secures hold upon

this let no one misunderstood US.
