CHARACTER

Newspapers within and without the State
of New York are speaking of the disgrace Gov
ernor Suzer has brought upon himself and
the State and pessimists are pointing to the In
cident as an evidence of decadent politics and
of the lack of political morality. They find in
the incident cause only for cynical observation or
for sincere lamentation Yet. II we but search
closely and make some effort to get beneath
the surface we will find in the gubernatorial
career of William Sulzer cause for congratula-
ton We will discover evidence of the heart
soundness of the great mass OF people
This evidence is the value which the people
put upon character and their almost unerring
judgment of public men.
Governor Sulzer opposed the great bette noir
of New York politics. He placed himself In the
path OF political corruption and fought it's efforts
to tighten it's grip upon great State. His pri-
mary bill was conceded by nearly all to be a
meritorious bill and proven by Tammany's des-
perate opposition to be a weapon destined to
restore power TO the people. Sulzer fought on the
side OF the people and appealed to them for
support. He was eternally right and staked his
political career upon success in his fight for
/ the best interests OF New York Yet he aroused
but little enthusiasm. He was but perfunctorily
supported by those for whom he -hattled- His
pleas all but unheard although those with
whom he pleaded wanted just what he was ask
ing them to help him secure
Want OF confidence in the sincerity and ideal
ism of William sulzer furnishes the answer
Though he was their champion the people dis
trusted him. His character made no appeal
They could not support with energy and en-
thusiasm a man whom they did not hold above
suspicion; man in whom they did not have
that unwavering confidence which the people Of
New Jersey had for Governor Wilson and

CHESTERFIELD DELEGATE GIVES
VIEWS ON LEGISLATIVE
MATTERS.

DANVTL.LE. VA, Aug 13.-Cap-
tain w. W. Baker, OF Hallsboro. Ches-
terrified county, for sixteen years
member of the house OF delegates Tor
thai county. and a prosperous AND
influential man. was in the city yes
Iterday on a business trip. He ownes
and operates large tannery at Halls
boro and has extensive interests In the
county. Captain Baker has just been
reelected for another term In the
house winning by a majority OF sixty
Eight votes over a formidable compe-
titor. Less than forty per cent OF the
old mem bers of the house will re-
turn to the next session but the Ches-
terfield man is one of the number.
Captain Baker has served longer
In the house than any other man and
with the exception OF Mr.. Keezell. or
buckingham has probably served long
err than any member OF either
branch. Mr.. Keezell. who has Tor
years been In the senate up to TWO
years ago. has been elected to the
house and will be an influential rae
tor in that body. 1t is probable that
he will be the chairman OF the nnance
committee, unless Mr.. Spessard. OF
Allegheny. aspires to that honor, ne
| being now the ranking MEMBER Oh
that committee.
| For the speakership there are at
least two aspirants. They are Hon
Edwin r. Cox, of Richmond city, ana
Hon. Harry r, Houston, OF Hampton.
1t IL impossible at this time to FORE
cast the result, Captain Baker anti
| cipates that the speakership contest
and the rearrangement o. commit
tee assignments and other reorgani-
zation work will occupy probably
fortnight of the sixty days session:
Thereafter the general assembly Will
probably be busy with the tax prop.

probable that much In the way OF
reform OF the tax system Will De

OF new members of the house 10 go
Ing to make the work OF that booy
bit slow. IT is thought BY some;
Many new measures are expected
to come up and these will play
conspicious part in the work OF the
lawmakers Nearly all the new mem
bers have some pet measure.

Catawba sanitarium and 10 one OF
the most earnest supporters OF that
institution, one Of the paviiiona there
having been named for him In the

Insure him some important commit

which the people Of the United States have for
President Wilson. The latter can win against
odds. because his character is not only above
reproach but above suspicion. sulzer could not
win though his policies met with approval be-
cause his sincerity. II not suspected, not
accepted as beyond doubt
The lesson is this:
The great mass of people demand character
In their leaders A few may follow the Muir
phys because bound to them by the power of
selfshness and the many may remain indif
ferent but when so 1t is because they have no
leader upon whom they can place reliance Sin
certify, honesty of purpose and strength OF
character are essential qualities Of leader OF
the people Though he have the brilliancy OF
a Tallyrand, the shrewdness OF Machiavelli
/ the genius for craftsmanship of Jefferson and
have no moral character he will fall II he depends
solely upon the support of the people.
So It was with Sulzer. He lacked the essential
qualities OF a leader of the people and though
he battled for them he is now given over to his
enemies.
