THE REPUBLICAN TRIBUTE
TO WILSON

"Seclude and isolate a man for
six years. says the New York
Times; "then. when the United
States has to meet problems and
perils as grave as have come to
it since the beginning Of the
Civil war, open the clustered
cell and hail its tenant as the
Republican best fitted, because
his views for six years are a
blank, to beat Wilson and TO be
president in difficult and stormy
times. Can the Republicans be
thinking of such a leap in the
dark ?"
They can, and they are.
! No more eloquent testimonial
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1916-09-13

was ever offered an American
president by his political enc
mics than that conveyed to
Woodrow Wilson in this remark
abe Hughes boom.
Republican criticism and abuse
of Wilson is plentiful. But when
it comes to choosing a candidate
against him the ordinary Re-
publican mind dare not con,emp-
late naming any man who has
been in a position to talk and
act during the trying times that
Wilson has been our chief exc
cut;ve. There is no Republican
statesman whose responsibilities
and problems have begun to
compare with those imposed On
Wilson. Even the most active
and bo1dest Of them all has not
been obliged to act in any very
important capacity; his weight
lest duty has been to criticize
and express his opinion. But
among them all there IS not one
that appeals as available ma
terial to ''beat Wilson," Roose-
vet has been too virulent and
warlike. Cummins too colorless
and pacific. Burton too dull and
spiritless, Root too cold and con-
sentative, and so en- up and down
the line. None, with all his op-
portunit;es to dodge and tenn
poriZe, compares at all favor
ably with Wilson, who could not
dodge at all, who could not tenn
rcrize. who had no desire to do
SO. who had to act and did act
acted with results creditable
and profitable to this country
and helpful to all the world.
That is why the Republican
mind has been turning so yearn-
ingly toward Hughes. He has
been for six years in "the clois-
tered CELL" His views for six
years are blank. He has not
been permitted to express an
opinion. Nobody knows what
his opinions are. Therefore Re-
publicans turn to him natural
ly!
What a tribute, we repeat, to
Woodrow Wilson.
If Wilson's conduct as an
American president, in these
years Of storm and danger had
been such that it was va'idly
subject to reproach, how differ
emily would the Republican par
ty be acting now, on the eve Of
its national convention!
It would be putting forth the
foremost of the critics of the
president, the one who differed
with him most clearly and def
lnitely as to politics, and in his
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1916-09-13

name it would be appealing to
American patriotism to rally ano
defend the republic. Instead il
is summoning the people to raj
ly about a Mysterious Stranger
about a Man for an Iron Mask
about a Sphinx that for six
years has been voiceless. AnC
Here" they cry, 'is the man
to beat Wilson,"
Why? To make what changes
in policy? To stand for what
different principles?
Nobody knows. Apparently no
body cares.

For a time late yesterday afternoon
IL looked as If the disastrous storm
of Monday was TO be repeated, and in
view of the extreme heat which had
prevailed for three days a terrific
thunder and lightning storm was ex-
pected But only a few mutterings
we're heard and an occasional fash
OF lightning seen, for the center Of
the storm was some distance to the
southwest. But what Wilmington
folks were most interested in was
the rapid fall in temperature. which
began soon after the first of the dark
clouds obscured the sun The drop
was very noticeable, and relief from
the heat came almost at once.
The storm was particularly severe
towards the southwest. between this
city and Baltimore. Mingled with the
heavy rain that fell in sheets was
hail. in some instances as large as
cherries. The hail broke many win.
dows, and did much damage to crops
