Washington Correspondence.
BY CLYDE H, TAvENNER.

WASHINGTON, March 22d. Wood
row Wilson, Man of the Hour, has an
opportunity to make himself the
greatest president since Abraham
Lincoln, and to keep the Democratic
party in power for years to come.
This is true not merely because he
is to-day President Of the United
States. There have been other big
men President since Lincoln. 1t is
because Woodrow Wilson realizes
that the one great principal issue that
confronts the Republic is not the tar
iff issue, the currency issue, or the
trust issue, but the issue of humanity.
Taft did not realize this, hence his
failure.
The tariff issue, the currency issue
and the trust issue, are simply arith-
metioal problems that may be worked
out, but the issue OF humanity is one
of conscience and soul. The first
named issues are business proposi-
tions, and concern dividends and dol
lars chiefly, while the issue Of human
ity. refers to human rights, the protec'
ton Of women and children and al
those who are being oppressed BY
organized greed.
If the American public will reat
woodrow Wilson's inaugural speeci
a second time, better Interpretation
Of the light that he sees may be had
