During hfs life many honors have come to him, many achievements are to Lis credit and withall he has many things to feel proud of, but none of these a'e more to his credit than this hi£h and special recognition.

which passed Tuesday, the Indianapolis News says: “Wc do not believe that there will be any attempt to dela yuction. It is now certain that the bill is practically 1 , in its present form, will become a law. . .othing can be gained, therefore, by action. The country desires above everything to have the question disposed of. it is ready for the new law. Even those who are opposed are at | least resigned. There should be the i promptest possible action. A word ’ ahould be said as to the democratic management. We imagine that the feeling is one of surprise that the democrats were able to get together, rather than of indignation at any feature of the program. It is true that Senator Cummins criticised the can-■ ] eus action, and the use of the president's influence, lint this is rather far-fetched. We have seen that tlie democratic party is able to “do tilings,” that its representatives, both fn tlie executive and legislative departments, 'found it possible to cooperate effectively in this very important work. All the evil prophecies of democratic discord have been falsified. And it is this fact, we think, that is worrying the critics. A dispatch from Washington recently declared that President Wilson was firmly at the head of the administration. It rehearsed what Mr, Wilson has accomplished in tlie few months of his tenure, and this wlien meeting a most unusual array ol great questions, such as tariff re-1 form and currency reform, with both of which republican administrations had been pottering for years In addition he hair the Japanese question thrust upon him and th* Mexican question. .Hut withal, as I the account says, he has stamped his individuality on every department of *

. tlie government, and that tn the most - unobstructive of ways- He has not . cashed about with a lot of gold-laced • flunkies and a cloud of detective , , nor has he toured the country every ■ few minutes. He has not even felt . the supposedly awful Washington . summer, but has stayed at work, . with even less recreation than they frequently take. Thus lie has inculcated good manners, and customs, -,s . well us shown a mastery of his work and an effectiveness of execution. There is no fear, either, that the example will be lost. Tlie American people are not always right, but. as Lincoln said, "they maybe right.'' A very few presidents have so impressed themselves on the people's imap- : ination and reflection as Mr. Wilson lias. He has the country's confidence, not merely as to honesty of • puriwse and courage, but as to the soundness of his lonclusions. and, what is greatest of all, as to the breadth and grasp of his mind over large affairs. Whatever has to come we are fortunate in having a president that in a few short months has so won the confidence of his fellov. 1 - countrymen that he can feel certain of their support- The people are as Molidly with him as the western bankers are on tlie policy of government money put in the right place to move I the crops.—Laporte Argus-Bulletin.
