THE PLATFORM
We the Democrats of Montana, in
convention assembled, enthusiastically
and unreservedly endorse the national
,ra state administrations of President
woodrow Wilson and Governor S. v.
Stewart, and submit to all patriotic
and fair minded people, irrespective
If Dolitics, that the achievements of
these administrations justify the con-
ipued support of the electorate.
Confidence in Woodrow Wilson
In President Woodrow Wilson the
Democratic party has given to the ma
fon a great executive, q wise coun-
pbr and an unselfish patriot. He has
nhly piloted our country through the
most perilous times of the age. In
Mexico, without the necessity of bloody
htervention and against the unwise
but strident call of jingoism, he has
By firm policy of steadfast persua-
dn brought peace, an achievement
witch characterizes him as one OF the
great statesmen of all time. In Eu-.
rope, now seething in the thr0es OF
! aH most awful war of all times, hes
has succeeded in maintaining not only
American neutrality, but the highest
respect and consideration for America
o. behalf of the struggling powers.
h times like these, when war clouds
have gathered all about us, and when
an unwise act or a thoughtless word
might precipitate us into a conflict In
mich we have no interest, it is
With peculiar feeling of confidence
md security that we reflect that
Woodrow Wilson is at the head of the
American nation.
