a NEW AGE.

The Democrat has said that President
Wilson studies history, not to worship
it, but rather to work out in its light a
better democracy. Last Saturday he
spoke in MeckIenburg county, North
Carolina, where al years ago men of
his type stood for America first, and is
sued the first declaration Of indepen-
dence; and this is part Of what he said
Whether we viii or not, we are at the begin
ming Of new age. And we will have to be very
sure not to encourage or to give c0untenance to
the men who are trying to hold us back.
| am for forward looking men, not for back
ward looking men. We have come down here
to celebrate an historical episode, but we have
not done it because we are looking backward
We have done it merely to give ourselves the
excuse to get together and feel the thrill OF
being Americans and living in an age when it is
worth while being Americans"

The Wisconsin State Journal. Madison: A
Republican Congressman recently said that no
national administration in fifty years had
done so much for the people and said so little
about it as the Wilson administration. This is
unquestonably true. Some Presidents have
been made by their cabinets; some cabinets
have been made by their Presidents. But for
good or i'll, President Wilson has been every

average administrative efficiency will be found
to be unusually high. 1t is not likely that the
Republican party Will name a man who, all
things considered, will be Wilson s equal. And
