tEV Jonathan Winfield !

Washihston, Nov. 1G.-President wilson will ignore another precedent next summer. He will net go on the stump seeking reelection, in the event of his ronomination.
 The president plans to spend the summer and autumn months at his ae" home, Shadow Lawn" near Long Branch, Kew Jersey. He may make a few speeches in defense of ms administration in several of the larger cities, but this will be the limit of his active campaignine. Democratic leaders throughout the country have been informed Of his decision end arc making their rlans accordingly.
 Shadow Lawn" will be the Demo- cratic mecca throughout all the cam pai9n months. Delegations from all sections of the nation will make. pil- grimagas to the summer white house" and there hear Democratic gospel eXp0unded by the president in brief, informal talks from the broad Teranda which surrounds the man. sion. This was the style of cam paigning which Mckinley tried in 1896, and it was successful, although William Jennings Bryan, then nomi mated for the presidency for the first time, stumped the country. speaking in practically every state and to mil lions of persons.
 President Wilson plans to conduct 6 simple dignifed campaign from his front door-step. This plan has been endorsed by ali his friends within the party, who believe that it will be far more effective and iln- pressive with tho nation than if the president should make an elabora . stumning tour.
 Many of the Democratic national committeeman have visited the white house within the past two weeks and approved the idea. They believA that the president will be able to make Long Branch sounding board from which Democratic doctrine Will e-echo throughout the country When a president is speaking on four. much of his time energy and is absorbed by purely local interests, and in this way much of it's effectiveness with the nation at large is lost, it is pointed out.
 + is probable that President Will son will be at "ShadoW Lawn before the next Democratic national conven- lion which probably will be held ncxt June. This means that he Will denart from Washington directly aft er the adjournment of congress, or nossibly before that time, shooia congress he held in the capital longer than now is anticipated.

 This action is believed to mean simply that Roumania is insisting on a strict neutrality pending the gov ernments final decision on the war issue. It is practically certain that the king favors the allies.
