Mr.. Wilson and Patronage

Fresh from an audience with the

Tor office. White House visitor was
asked, What did Mr. Wilson say"
Nothing" was the reply He listen
ed very politely. and smiled"
Mr.. Wilson is getting the hang of
the matter. Why should he say any
thing in such circumstances? Why
go beyond attention and smile?
A man recommending friend for
office Is apt TO provoke smile II a
president possesses humor His praise
Is certain TO be high-too high. He
could not be conservative If he tried.
His friend is the very man for the
place The appointment would give
general satisfaction Make it, Mr..
President, and you'll make ten

looked bored when patronage was I'M

giles Of friends asking recognition were

Gen. Harrison was attentive, but
formal and reserved. He might be
favorably impressed without giving a
sign OF his feelings. An appointment
asked one day might be made the
next. but IL came as surprise.
Mr.. Mckinley was so cordial the

His manner expressed something like
this: Glad 10 see you. What Is 1t

inspire false hope The business was
simply in the hands of sympathetic

ed little OF both the Harrison and

he heard the visitor out, and parted
with him pleasantly.
Mr. Wilson as politician has had
little experience as compared with his
Ave predecessors named. Before en-
tering the White House they had for
years been engaged in politics; had
shaken hands with and heard appeals
from thousands. But he is new to the
business, and probably wise in his cau-
ton. He can afford both attention and
a smile to callers. but not much more
until he learns all the rules OF the
game. The more earnest his desire to
make good appointments the more
