leader« sod administrators.
Mr. Wilson is iwrhaps the ablrsl
leader of m«atam democracy in any
country in the world
He probably
has a finer understanding of the
science and art of government than
any other man now living. His
statesmanship is intuitive in its
breadth and vision and imagination.
Mr. Hughe« is painfully deficient

intolerance of Mr Hughes' cam|«aign

case the style is emphatically the

are of vast importance, and Mr.
Hughes is essentially a contract
lawyer, both
professionally and
politically.
Mr. Hughes' mind is essentially
destructive. Mr Wilson's mind is
essentially constructive. Mr. Hugh*
