On the other hand the supposed
silent power of man like House with
the President of the United States,
gave the Republicans a most hand
some opportunity to charge success
fully that the government was. in the
hands of little men.
The statement by the chairman of
the national Republican committee on
the eve of the election referring to
House as the unappointed agent OF
our nation shows that the advantage
was not overlooked and the returns
show that the argument hit the spot.
Equally as unfortunate and inimical
to Democratic success was the fact
that Mr.. Wilson saw fit to continue
, Burleson as a member of his cabinet.
The denial by Burleson of the right
of postal employees to become MEM
bers of an organization for their mr-
tual advantage was an insult to or
ganized labor throughout the country;
and such official intimidation became
all the more inexcusable when it is
remembered that organized labor has
stood by the Wilson administration
through thick and thin. =
The fact that Burleson had made
thousands of dollars from working
Texas convicts and had signed a con-
tract placing the value of days
labor at the fabulous sum of rs cents
evidently caused the laboring masses
in the doubtful states to doubt wheth-
er they could ever expect much from
the Democratic administration when
its. councils were in some measure
dominated by one so far out of SYM
patty with their neds and demands.
In other words, House and Burleson
were a load which even Mr.. Wilson
could not carry. He has my sympathy.
have had some loads of the same
kind to carry.
But the greatest mistake that was
made and the one which lost the cleo
ton was the, charge made by the
President himself that the Republic
cans had been disloyal in the war.
Better had he said that he thanked
the Republicans for their loyalty to
him as the peoples President, and
that he asked for continuation of
that spirit until the war was over.
This would have been true and would
have been what the Republicans were
due to receive.
But for some unfortunate reason
(perhaps the advice of Burleson or
House), the egregious blunder was
made of charging disloyalty against
the ranks of the Republicans, when
perhaps they had given more money
and more men to the war than the
Democrats had-because they had it to
give. Under these facts the charge
of disloyalty was more than redblood-
ed Americans could stand "a and they
went after the Democratic congress
men with vengeance. Armed with
the club which the President had given
them it was easy To win victory
which brought defeat to the Demo-
cratic party.
