President Wilson is having some of the experiences that
then in the North who thought but little was being done right
by the Executive and that many things were being done wrong.
Then, as now, there were those disposed to fault find and to
bring forth from dark and mysterious caverns the old bugaboo
about the president overstepping his prerogatiyeS" and "try-
ing to be dictator" and other whilomn political ghosts. Such
matters are generally urged by those without stable convictions
and who want to throw dust in somebody's eyes about what
they themselves have done or failed to do. 1t is well enough
that the public mind be refreshed just now as to some of the
things Lincoln did during the Civil War and as to what was said
at that time about certain acts of his.
Vallandingham of Ohio, who was trying to stir up sedition in
the North, Lincoln said, among other things. eff I be wrong
my error lies in believing that certain proceedings are
CONSTITUTIONAL in times of war which would not be constltu-
tonal * . * * 3 in times of peace" %. g
to be running against the President, "The defeat of the admin
istration is the administrations own fault" This declaration
coin was not open to the counsel of his friends and that he was
trying to run the war not with the help of his friends, but in
spite of them.
1t was charged by others that some members of the cabi-
net were running the President and there was such a rumpus
senatorial caucus asked that he be removed. Lincoln resented
this as an encroachment on the prerogatives of the Executive
could not stand, could not hold water; the bottom would be
out Yet no less an authority than John Hay spoke of his
later said that Lincoln was 'misjudged as to Seward, insulted
by Mcclellan, abused by Greedy and sneered at by military au-
means harmonious and that at one time he had the designations
OF three of them, Seward. Chase and Stanton in his possession
all at one time, but he allowed none of them to go, notwith-
standing the attacks from the outside.
President Wilson'S problems are many times magnifed be-
triumphs, especially when some of the harsh criticisms of Lin
coin are recalled. The fact is, President Wilson has had the
the republican ni ns party @ ys almost t so i ns' behind him. . Only On the lesser m
lights have attacked the President thus far and these official
have known they We're in Washington had they not licked
they never build anything but as destroyers, as land subma-
rines, they belong at the head of the list.
Some of those who covertly attacked the President at the
beginning of the war and who lost no opportunity to disagree
or are vociferous in their protestations of loyalty-They have
heard from home.

1T is PATRIOTIC TO BUY NOW.

Coal conditions during the past winter are too fresh in the
public mind to be rehearsed here. The question now is, coal
for next winter. The National Fuel Administrator advises coal
consumers to buy coal NOW. The month Of April is almost al
ways the best time to get the lowest prices but this year April
prices are offered earlier. To wait until June or July, or per
haps August, brings the consumer in more direct competition
with the Government and means the hindering of public work
and perhaps the throttfng of vital governmental enterprises,
perchance the coaling of a vessel to carry supplies or succor of
some sort to your son or your neighbors son or brother in the
trenches IN France. The Government says not wait, but buy
NOW. The Government is doing all it can to aid its individual
citizens but it has a right to expect, yea, to demand, that the
citizen meet the Government half way. So if we buy coal at an
early day and some grave disaster should come TO the American
boys across the seas because of the shortage in shipping, then
we snail not have ourselves to reproach about anything we fail
ed to do.

We do not wish to tell tales out of school and least of all
would we want to embarrass home people but it is no secret
that there are scores of people in Grenada county who have
money ahead, money loaned out: who have not bought a Lib
erty Bond, a Thrift Stamp or a War Saving Stamp, or so far as
outward appearances go. done anything else to aid the war. In
the very friendliest spirit we would say to all these that they
will be found out-they are already located as for that matter.
but 1t would be too bad for everybody to have a chance to know
them. And what is true of Grenada county is true, we dare
say, of most others. Grenada county as a whole is we'll to the
front and ranks high in, the war work done.

HIS VIEWS OF THE RE.
CENT CAMPAIGN
Comment on the Result by Chairman
HOlley

My associates on the Republican
County Committee. like myself. are
naturally very much gratified with the
result of the election. 1t is a critical
year, and perhaps a period when pub
lie opinion could most easily be
swayed. No one could foretell the
result in the county or throughout the
State The splendid majority in
Somerset, in keeping with the result
throughout Maine, is accepted as an
endorsement of the policies and can
didates of our party.
We would like the public to recall
that the campaign was absolutely
clean. There was no attack made
upon the character of our opponents
Another unusual feature consisted in
the fact that we held not one public
meeting in the county. This was in
strict adherence to our initial an
nouncement In eliminating the
meetings and the costs incidental
thereto, we were able to save a good
deal of expense, which we trust will
find its way along various avenues in
answer to many calls of the present
war emergency. This we trust will
be accepted as the pledge of the party
to keep patriotism above politics.
