borders had about rs much voice in the
management of their public affairs as
they had III deciding the weather or de
termining the phases of the moon. For
years the state government had been
run by agents of the interests"
Latterly it was the Republican or
ganization that had been In power at
Trenton, but the system was really a
bipartisan one. The Republican boss
es had come to be known as the "hoard
of guardians" in which the public serv
lee, railroad, insurance and other cor
poration interests were duly represent
ed. The Democratic organization was
the private property of James Smith,
Jr.. n politician who had made his way
into the United States senate and who
had retired from that body under crit
icisms connected with certain scandals
incidental to the framing OF the VII
son tariff. Ex-senator Smith is pol

the suggestion that the nation would
be fortunate if it could place such II
man as Wilson in the presidential chair
1t Is easy enough to see how the idea
Of running Wilson for governor needed
only present itself to the imagination
of a shrewd boss to become immediate
ly congenial. The Democratic leader no
doubt naturally imagined that n learn
ed coIlegian would be as putty in the
hands OF an experienced politician.
especially If his eyes We're rose spec
tacled by the promise Of a nomination
for president.
DuiUHI the early summer of 1910
President Wilson was told by mum
Der of his friends that he could proba-
by have the Democratic nomination
for governor if he desired it. These
limitations became so numerous and
so pointed and were accompanied by
CT re bo
party and the state would derive from
his acceptance that Mr. Wilson was
constrained to lend them favorable
ear.
And yet the prospective nominee was
profoundly puzzled. While sentiment
among the best class of voters through
out the state was strong, the practical
overtures came from the organizat ton
headed by Smith. Mr. Wilson was per
fectly aware of ex-senator Smiths po-
liticaI character and history. He knew
what the organization was. How could
such a gang support him? Were they
deceiving themselves as to their man?
Did they fancy that his lifelong de
testatiOn of corrupt politics was simply
pose? Did Smith regard the school
master as "A simple soul who would
hand out corporation favors without
knowing? Did he expect to get Unit
ed States senatOrship through the Dem
ocratic Legislature which Wilson's pop
uarity was likely to elect?
On that point Mr. Wilson made spa
cifc inquiry of the gentlemen who
came to him on their puzzling errand.
He required their assurance that Mr.
Smith would not seek the senatorship.
"Were he. to do so while | was gov
ernor," he told them, II should have to
oppose him. He represents everything
repugnant to my convictions" They
told him categorically that Smith had
no idea of going back to the senate;
that he was man thought to be sick
with a dangerous constitutional all
ment and borne down by domestic be-
reavement and that he was definitely
out of politics.
