WILSON PLEASES THE PEOPLE

Governor Is Making the Kind of Campaign That Is Sure to Win. Gov. Wilson is making the sort of campaign that wins. He is making the sort of campaign which proves not only that the party has a good candidate, but that the country will have a good president. Gov. Wilson has shown a dignity, a fairness, a sincerity which has gained the confidence of the people wherever his words have reached. Gov t . Wilson is the reverse of a spectaucular grand-stander. Yet on his western trip he has had by odds the largest audiences that have gathered during this campaign. They have come, not to see a show, but to judge a man; not to pay homage to a self-made Caesar, but to hear and pass upon a program of national work. They have heard, they have judged, they have approved. They have found Gov. Wilson a man whose prime desire is not to exalt himself, but to serve the people. They have found Gov. Wilson a man who refuses to be drawn from the issues of the campaign into an exchange of barren personalities. They have found Gov. Wilson a man who never hesitates to say anything good of an opponent that may with honesty be said. They have found Gov. Wilson a man who respects the office of the presidency too much to seek it by a campaign of billingsgate. In a word, the people have found Gov. Wjlson the sort of man they want in the White House. They will put him there.
