Wilson Breaks Some
More Precedents

around Washington for seccerel GENERA
sions into the sweet by and by This care
less actsion on the part of the Pressidint
has aroused sum very unfavurabull com
mint. 1t takes a long time to build up and
establish preeseedent and get it to work
ing good n all kinds of climates Then to
have long thin Guy to cum in on a pluralli-
ty vote and kick sed perfectly good pree-
seedents in the Stats and uterwise show his
contempt for them is very discurraging.
Sum of our presidents weer getting a little
thin at the elbows and otherwise run down,
but the preeseedent of United States Sena-
ters preeseeding Cabinet officers at Re
septsions was still sound and harty and to
dump it into the junk heep was simply too
much
Amung our hired folks up heer accord
ing to the most well regulated and ansent
preeseedents, the Pressidint himself of
corse Gums first. Then Gums the Soopreem
Court and the Forrain Ambassadors, then
the United States Senator's then the aCb-
binet members, then the members of the
House and SO on until they get down to the
plain peepul, who air the reel bosses accord
ing to the dope just before the electsion, but
who as a matter of fact air the goats
When a new Senator is elected and Gums
to Washington, his wife must call on all the
rest Of the Senator's wives first. It's not like
it is down in the sticks where the new cum
mer is always called upon by the naybors,
who cum to look ovver her clothes and furn-
niture and sample her brand of english
language and size her up GENERALLY, and
then go off and commint fIuintly upon the
rapper she had on, and the way the children
behaved and all that. This rule runs all the
way down the line in this town frum the
Pressidint to the Janniter, according to
rank. The only way one can get into the up
per crust OF polytical sosiety is to butt rite
IN and put ON as mich Dog as possibull ana
see if you can get away with it.
So one can tell at glance that to com
nit the grave error of sticking sum upstart
OF a Cabinet officer in frunt of a Senator
is heynus offense. It's much worse than
delay in appointing a fayurite constituint
to a postoffise until the Senator gets plum
enthusiasticll about the tariff bill for If
the constituent afforsed dom get the lob.
the Senator can lay it on the Pressidnt, but
If he is preeseeded by cabinet offiser at
reseptslon, he can't give hs wife emmy such
Bull as that, she won t stand for it.
The Pressidint can fool along and smash
all the preeseedents he wants to so long as
he don t interfeer with the dignity of the
Senate, and sumthing that will involve the
wimmin folks, but when he does that its
good mite nurse
Moor than likely the Pressidint will see
where he is in rong and will refrain frum
taking anuther whack at the sosial preesee
dent. But emmy how we reeitterate our for
mer statement that school for cannydate
for the Pressidinsy would be a mitey good
thing, and mite save lot of ANNOYANCE in
the future Yours trooly,
