taken two different straw votes
to ascertain sentiment on the
presidency and the result each
time was overwhelmingly for
Wilson. Polls taken elsewhere
show the same result. In all
the straw votes taken Hughes
has been a favorite over Roos-
.evelt for the republican nomi-
nation. If there is such a pro-
nounced sentiment for the fiery
colonel why does it not find
stronger expression?
Furthermore the colonel
himself was refined" when
Belgium was being invaded.
AT that time a committee of
Belgians appealed to the Uni
ted States for aid and in a
statement in the Outlook Col.
Roosevelt said he did not see
how this country could do any
thing for them. He said it was
not our affair. or words to that
effect. See what "craven"
he was when the subject of
Belgium was really at issue,
He was fully as bad as Wilson,
if it is a bad thing to hesitate
about plunging this country
into war.
1t is sad to contemplate, but
it may be that all our presiden-
tal aspirants have a strain of
refinement about them. Hughes
himself may be affected
though being silent he is able
to conceal his weakness. Men
who are "quick on the trigger"
and devoid of civilizing graces
are not as numerous as they
once were in public life. There
is, or was, a gentleman of the
desired stripe down in Mexico.
But he is not available because
if he is not dead already it is
fairly certain he would soon be
dead, if he showed his face on
this side Of the border.
In all seriousness, the notion
that Wilson's refinement is a
drawback is about the biggest
joke yet produced. The Am
erican people, republicans or
democrats, are not seeking a
president who can boast of a 4
strong back and a weak mind.
They desire some brains in the
White House. They are not in
sisting on "gunman" as chief
and they are perfect
ly willing to forgive Woodrow
Wilson for keeping the country
out of war, no matter whether
he resorts to "dilettante diplo-
