since their emancipation and they can be
laid at the private entrance of Woodrow
Wilson to the White House. While he was
not directly responsible for the recent
race riots, yet the spirit he has engendered
and from time to time encouraged was re
sponsble for it and the coored folks fully
realizing this are not kindly disposed to-
ward him. well, sick or dead. Wilson'S
anti-Negro program has harassed the color

from the Atlantic to the Pacific and even
on the battlefields Of France, and little
more could be expected from them than,

WOODROW WILSON

President Of the United States so comes
the report, is not necessarily sick unto
death, but perhaps is sick unto the end Of
his present term, and then some
His exact ailment his physicians have not
and doubtless will not permit to become
public property, but the public has it's sus-
picions. While his trip abroad may not
have been the beginning of his troubles,
yet it is said to be largely responsible
for them. and being on the verge Of collapse
on his return to Washington City and there
meeting both censure and criticism Of
such nature to force him to take the field
and defend his actions must have hastened
the collapse which his physicians foresaw
There seems to be an Unnecessary amount
of secrecy about the White House admin
istration First the treaties made by the
president were kept a profound secret and
now his sickness is no less guarded sec
ret than were the European treaties, and
there does not seem to be any reasonable
excuse for the same. If the president is
even sick unto death this republic will
roll on Just as perfectly as if he had new
er lived. and the same would be true of
any public man, hence the public is en-
titled to know the exact nature Of the
presidents malady.
Irrespective of his constitutional con-
dition, President Wilson in the settlement
Of the late world war attempted the At
las stunt and when it was too late real
lied his mistake Like Charlemagne Caesar,
Napoleon and Kaiser Wilhelm President
Wilson fatty failed in his attempt to become
the world power. All Of them for a brief spell
believed that they held the key to the situa-
ton. and they may have but each Of them
tripped before reaching the great door. JEFF
ferson was right in declaring call men are
created equal'' and that being so, to keep
peace in the family they must reason to-
gether.
With President Wilson down and out the
League of Nations will get but scant sup
port in the United States and it's death
will be but question Of time. in which
case Senator johnson will be left almost
without presidential issue and in the
final campaign the Democratic party will
be without "paramount ISSUE The
fight Senator johnson has made against
the policies Of President Wilson has given
him an enviable party position for the
presidential nomination, but Of that he
will lose much in case President Wilson is
not candidate to succeed himself.
In his address in Seattle, Roscoe Sim
monds mildly rebuked the spirit that SEEM
ed to prevail in the audience to more or
less rejoice over the misfortunes of the
president and he is to be commended there
for all of which made the thoughtful ones
wonder, why such feeling? It will be re-
membered that since Mr. Wilson has been
president, the colored folks Of this country
have had more trials and tribulatOns to
contend with than they have had all told
Cayton's weekly. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1916-1921, 1919-10-18
