New Deal in Government.

Woodrow Wilson's inaugural ad-
dress was printed in the Pioneer
Tuesday but the address is of such
Importance that it is repeated in this
issue. Readers are urged to look it
over carefully and get in touch with
the president who is to give us a new
administration.
Many think of President Wilson as
a young man. In fact, he is fifty
seven years of age and brings to the
White House a rich experience in the
affairs of men. He has been an exec
utive for many years and ever since
he was young man has devoted him.
self to the study of American gov
eminent and politics. His ideas are
not those sprung on the spur of the
moment.
From his address, it would appear
that President Wilson brings to the
White House new point of view.
He is looking more to the means
through which great things are pro-
duced rather than the products
themselves. He is looking at the
thpusands of foreigners Shaving in
our mines rather than at the figures
Of our gross production, he is look
ing at the men, women and children
working death dealing hours in our
clothing, canning, and many other
factories rather than at the figures of
giant production of these factories;
and he is needing their appeal
- In his opinions, he is backed by
the majority of the American people,
He is a. man to whom the common
people can look as their representa-

his platform calls upon him to carry

One thing can be done which will
aid him more than can be estimated.
Every small paper in the country can
get behind the new president, give
him the backing that he should have,
and let the people know what he is
doing. One thing is already certain
he is not a publicity monger and
will not always be telling what he is
going to do. He will do it first and
tell it later
We have a new deal in govern
