Senator Penrose, our own big Boles, is one of those who Indulge in this innocent pastime, thereby adding a companion joke to his fa- mous 19812 prophecy, that “Taft is getting stronger every day.” Unprejudiced citizens may be ex pected to ask, however, what has hap- pened to convince any sensible man | that Woodrow Wilson is not as strong | indeed far stronger-——than he was last fall? In the last national election, which is the latest test of public opinion in the country, he had the unprecedent ad distinction of increasing his par- ty’'s majority in the United States Senate in the middle of his first term, and of retaining a working majority in the House.

If Woodrow Wilson carries out the program and succeeds in doing what everyone concedes he is trying to do, possibly the American people will de mand his reelection, and why shouldn't they? That is the new idea the new spirit in polities.” “Panics inovitably follow Demo cratic legislation.” Witness the panic of 1873, in a Republican administra tion; the panic of 1882, in a Republi can administration; the panic of 1803, which occurred eighteen months be fore any Democratic legislation was passed; the panic of 1907, in the!
