SILENCE GOLDEN-POL1TICLLY ESPECIALLY.
That the man who ever expects to aspire to political
honors cannot keep to close tab on his Breaking appara­
tus has been sufficiently demonstated during the last
week in the case of one o f the democratic aspirants for
the presidency, and republican papers all over the land
are endeavoring to make great capital over the lapse of
the learned gentleman. Our country would be full o f
statesman today, or so they might be termed, had they
but the capacity of withholding their comments upon
events at inoportune times -t o themselves - o r remarks
about those whom they may be working with or against.
This fault o f running off at the mouth has lost many a
man an honor that he coveted, and some o f them the
presidential chair. Probably, also, an honor for which
they had all the ability and every requisite, except the
one failing o f not knowing when to keep silent, thus
making remarks that set the masses against them suffic­
ient to lose them the votes they wanted and lost them
the coveted job. The astute politician invariably lets
the other fellows do the talking, and keeps his tongue
behind his teeth and makes the proper deductions to
lead him to success. But seldom is he found occupying
the offices, however, as he finds it more remunerative
to be the power behind the throne, knowing full well
that should he put himself too much in the limelight, he
too, might be guilty o f the same indiscretion of babbling
that oftimes loses him his game in putting some one in
to office.
The Itemizer espoused the cause of Woodrow Wilson
as the right can fidate for the democratic nomination for
several reasons, chief o f which was that we thought
him entirely untainted with politics—a pure, clean, man
o f good common sense, tempered with enough business
ability to be able to engineer our government through
all its devious meandering^ of a four years’ term with
credit to himself and for the good o f the whole country.
As yet we have had no occasion to alter that belief.
Take a man o f scholastic temperament, entirely unused
to the many disquieting things that may come up in a
campaign o f this nature, he is certain to say and do
things that may be a cause for regret, both to himself
and to his friends, in fact anything else could hardly be
expected. Further experience along such lines will give
him riper wisdom, and we hardly think that he will care
to repeat the indiscretions attributed to him by the late
dispatches. All men are prone to error, even the nobl­
est that we have yet had in the government of this
great country o f ours, and as a seeker after the best
man for the place that we think can be found, we de­
precate the notoriety that has been given to a few
chance words, although such was only to be expected
when politics enters the field. We believe Governor
Wilson to be clean cut in every particular, aman of good
ideas for the betterment o f the country, and fearless
enough to do what he can to see them carried out, no
matter what the opposition. If we did not, we would
not pose as champion of his candidacy, our great desire
being to see the best man get the seat at the next elec­
tion, no matter what may be his politics, provided that
he is not tainted with political or interest subserviency.
