tions OF two citizens of New Bruins

Election Boards of that city must In
deed be perfect when It's citizens had
to come to Perth Amboy and object
to our Board. / have looked into
the matter very carefully and ! wish
to give a few general reasons why
these persons ought to look after
their own city and let US alone:
Many members of the New Bruins
wick Election Boards do not v In
the districts they are appointed for.
Many of the members hold city or
county jobs. some of them both.
Some of them will draw pay from
public treasurer for election day
for from two to five different jobs.
Several are physically unable to
perform the duties required.
Some have been indicted and tried
for election offenses.
They are absent from the polling
places for hours at a time.
Some of the judges receive open
tickets.
Some open them on pretense of re-
folding.
Some receive ticket and coupon
separated or torn off, and some de-
liberately open and look at the ticket.
An election officer will mark a
ticket for the voter on the slightest
pretext, said pretext is usually given
by q ward heller.
The ~subserviency of election Off
GERS especially employees of the city
and county to ward workers Is no
torious and the "cranks' of election
officers who object thereto have not
been reappointed.
Many other and ever stronger rea-
might be given why these gentle

NEWS publishes an editorial which
appeared in the Philadelphia Rec
ord a few days ago, entitled What
Is Wilsonism?" In these days of
bitter partisan feeling and all kinds
of false statements and misrepresen-
tations, 1t is well to review the actual
facts for a moment and recall some
of the achievements OF the past
eight years in order to freshen the
memory. In these days when it is
the fashion to blame President Will
son for about everything that is
wrong with the world. a voice now
and then pointing out what is ac-
tuaIly the truth in the matter Is well
coined.
But defending wisconsin and IA
voring Cox for the next President are
two different things. There is good
reason to believe that many Demo-
cratic politicians are today as much
opposed TO Wilson as the Republi-
cans are. Paradoxical as 1t may
seem, Republicans are condemning
President Wilson for his narrow
~partisanism, while the Democrats OBJ
lject to him because of the indepen-
dent manner in which he has filed
offices, naming many Republicans to
responsible positions and ignoring
the recommendations OF the Demo-
cratic leaders who had favorites that
they desired to be taken care of. The
editorial we quote from the Phila-
deIphia Record gives some idea of
the facts In this matter.
The Republicans, seeing their cam
paign against the League Of Nations
failing, and being forced to admit
that some form of a league must be
established with the United States
playing a prominent part. would
have the League of Nations issue
dropped and some papers are taking
up the cry of "Wilsonism." They
would like to make the people be-
lieve that 1t Is Wilson they are fight
ing and not the League of Nations,
especially those papers and Repub-
Ilican leaders who have been strong
advocates of the League Of Nations
from the beginning.
We are willing to allow the rec
ord of President Wilson to rest with
the future. Fifty years from now
the country will be the better
able to judge. We are not unmind-
full of the way Lincoln was vilified
and attacked during the closing days
of the Civil war; Washington was
much abused. and, before he died,
was subjected to much humiliation.
To-day all the mistakes and objec-
tionable features connected with
their administrations are forgotten.
SO with President Wilson, the big
things that he accomplished will live
and the mistakes. which today seem
SO big, will have passed away. Then
the past eight years will be put
down as among the greatest in
achievement that the American ma
ton has ever experienced.
Whether one votes for Harding or
Cox at the coming election, the issue
of "wilsonism' is not going to cut
much of a figure. Neither candidate
is of the calibre of President Will
son. That he worked almost single
handed and alone makes him all the
greater character. That was his way
and we doubt if he could have &C
complished as much in n other
way.
wisconsin may serve some as a
campaign cry for the present cleo
ton, but nothing the ordinary poll
tician can do can detract from the
achievements of Woodrow Wilson,
the twenty-eighth President of the
United States.
