ing his followers in Congress with
patronizing indifference. But his
air OF academic detachment and
PROFESSIONAL benevolence irritated the
majority elements which had let him
slip into Office on sufferance. In
stead of holding them apart. as a
good politician would have done, he
drove them more and more together
by his excessive and destructive le-
gislative activities. To him must be
awarded the chief credit for fusing
together again the Republican and
Progressive. The leaders of these
parties did not welcome fusion aud
did little 20 bring it about. Many
of them actually fought against Il.
But Mr.. Wilson's attempts to dislo-
cate the machinery of business, up
setting credit, harassing trade and

The Election As 1t
Affects President Wilson
(From the washington Post.

The action of the people on Tues
day shows how completely the Pre-
sident misinterpreted the public will,
how grossly he was misled by his in
formants as TO political affairs.
The people respect the President,
but they reject his policies
The Empire State has defeated men
whom he supported, and whose cleo
ton was asked for as vindication
of his administration. Pennsylvania,
the keystone Of industry, has over
whelmingly rejected his low-tarilf
scheme, and turned out of Office all
his followers in that State. New
Jersey, his own State, has substitu-
ted Republicans for Democrats In the
House, as a protest against the agi-
tation, business depression, and
hardship of the last two years New
England, a beehive of activity in nor
NAL times, has registered its protest
against policies which closed fac
tories and put men out of work. The
middle West has sent old-line Re
publicans to Congress who are stout
advocates of protection TO American
industries.
Few more serious reverses have
been recorded in American politics
than the reverse experienced by the
President in 1914.
The President disregarded the fact
that he had been elected because OF
split in the Republican party: that
a majority of the voters favored pro.
7 lection and voted for his opponents
and that his election could not pos.
sibly be construed into a mandate by
a majority Of the people for fire.,
trade
In spite OF his failure to receiv,
this mandate, the President pro
ceeded to put into execution a polio,
Of radical downward tariff revision
and a policy calculated to tear dow
the legitimate business activities o
the country. The result was wide
spread depression in times OF ia
harvests, a depleted Treasury, bust
ness stagnation, and finally an extr;
tax of $100,000,000 to tide over tn
government. although the countr
was at peace with all the world.
The President was mlsled by poo
advisers and politicians posing a
his friends. They not only gave hir
false Information, but induced hir
to throw his own personal popularit
into the scale, in the hope that the
could pull through, not on their ow
merits, but on his prestige. II wa
not fair to him. nor did it prove q
