What Does Mr. nsoaWlL

By AETHUE BRISBANE.
(Copyright, 1918.)
How can any man talk of President Wilson, except as
lono should talk of the successful servant of all the people?
WHY does he ask you to support him with your votes
at this election?
Can anything add to his reputation or glory? Do you
suppose that he wants anything, in politics or out of
politics, from ANYBODY?
Can petty political success increase the reputation of
one who, with swift firmness, has gloriously concluded the
greatest war in the world's history and rendered to hu-
l-nacity the greatest service ever rendered by any human
keing?
The President has work to do FOB YOU.
He asks you with your vote to give him power to do
the work that you want done. He asks nothing for him-
pelf, and you know it well.
The President must do the nation's war work as an in-
ividual He must be trusted. And he must trust himself
'Lincoln did when he said thaj he -would go -ahead and
et the approval of the people afterward.
In war Congress is the machine through which the
sident works. s-
It should be there to co-operate with him, to help him
sh the task in hand, and nrenare for the neat task of
econsfrnction that is coming, not to pull chestnuts out of
ie fire, or by. criticism and interference to f urther the
lexnes or individual, corporate, or party selfishness.
Who are the men that dare criticise Mr. Wilson for
lowing his custom and addressing himself directly to
ton, the voters, asking you to support and-uphold him?
te was not talking to politicians. He talked to YOU.

These are some of the things that the President Inight
ree .said:
J have taken your soldiers safely to France, while
y critics have said that I would not and could not
it. '
I have provided for those soldiers in France hos
tals, weapons, food, money, all that they need,
tile my critics for political reasons were accusing
of incompetency and neglect.
I have represented the spirit of America in my
jotiation8 with your enemies, and 1 am about to
bgotiate the only kind of peace that this country
' ever know, the peace of absolute victory and
htice.
&uch work remains to be done by me, whom you
terhhave chosen as your servant, and I ask that
u elect Democrats to help me do your work, not
itics to hinder me or waste their power scheming
themselves, when all the power of Government
ould be devoted to the welfare of the people at
me and the soldiers abroad.

He must bring home safely and promptly the two
ion men tnat with saiety and incredible speed were
Fn across the ocean.
He must have at his command, without stint, the re-
es of the nation to provide for those that offered their
ires to the country in war.
He must have the absolute co-operation of Concress in
ieting the problems that will arise after the war serious,
lgerous, complicated problems, vitally important to the
fare and peace of mind of every woman, every business
Dig and little, every citizen worlang for a living.
How important does the1 President's work seem to vou?
Does it seem to you as important as that of a mechanic
iding your car or stopping a leak in your plumbing?
u tne piumcer were at worfe in your kitchen, whom
juld you send to him, someone to criticise and hinder, or
sone to help?
Yonr prosperity as an individual, and the welfare of
i nation for years to come, depends upon work to be
Ine by the President now concluding peace, planning re-
lnsfnction, demobilizing the army and war industries,
ic.xatlng social unrest at one end of the hue and gigantic
nir at tne otner.
