N. J., July 2.?Woodrow Wilson, who now becomes the demo- cratic party's nominee for president of the United States, was born in 1856 in Virginia, where he was baptized under the full name of Thomas Wood- row Wilson. He dropped the Thomas about the time he completed his first book and took his first position as a teacher. Wilson can not, like many an office seeker s appeal to the sentimentality of the public by an account of a self- made man's rise from poverty. His father and grandfather were educated men, prominent in their communities and, while not rich, were.able to give the aspiring young scholar a liberal education. It was not toward scholar- ship, however, that his earliest am- bitions led him. While in college he resolved to be- come a public man. To that end he studied law and hung out his shingle. iHut his legal practice was not lucrative and after 18 months of it he gave it op and with it, for years to come, his desire for ollice. I Jim father, Rev. Joseph Ruggieg "Wilson, moved to Georgia when the boy was two years old, aud later preached in various churches in North and Hotith Carolina. Young Wilson entered Davidson college at the age of 17. After two years he entered Princeton, from which he was graduated in 1879. ifie then studied law In the Cnlversify of Vir- ginia, revets ing the degree of bachelor of law in ISS2. lie received the decree of doctor of philosophy from Johns Hopkins university in 18S6; that of doctor of laws from Lake Forest uni- versity. North Carolina, in 1887, and that of doctor of literature from Tale university at its biennial celebration. BECOMES COLLEGE PROFESSOR Professor Wilson occupied the posi- tion of adjunct professor of history in Bryn Mawr college and afterward professor of history and political economy in AVesleyan university. In ISM ho became professor of juris- prudence and political economy at Princeton university. In 1898 the title of his chair was changed to that of professor of jurisprudence ami upon its endowment he became Mccormick pro- fessor of jurisprudence and politics. Professor Wilson also for several years Kave a course of lectures in Johns Hopkins university. He gained fame as a lecturer and writer. His work entitled ''The State." aod his "Life of George Washington" are among his best known writings. Professor Wilson became the thir- teenth in the roll of presidents at Princeton in IM2, and the first layman to hold this office, all his predecessors having heen Presbyterian clergymen. He is. however, a ruling elder in the Second Presbyterian church of Prince- ton. As a professor he was very popu- lar, and his lecture classes were al- ways among the largest. UNDERTAKES COI.LEUR REFORM . During his administration at Prince- ton Doctor Wilson made two attempts to change materially tho character of Ajnerican education. In one project lie not only failed, but alienated the sup- port of a large body of the almuni, of many of the trustees and some of his coworkers on the teaching staff. The project which did not succeed was to establish the "squad" system for under- graduates. It was resented by the alumni as an attack upon the students' clubs, and the opposition became so strong that the president was asked by the board of trustees to withdraw his proposal. The successful innovation was the preceptoral system. That called for the appointment of 50 teachers or precep- tors to be added to th* faculty at In- creased cost to the university/offl£o,- 000 a year. But the alumni so thor- oughly approved the plan that they told the president to go ahead; and as- sured him that the money for the sal- aries would be forthcoming. The plan succeeded, and the loyal alumni have furnished the funds. This preceptoral system, by which each student gets the benefit of personal contact with a teacher, is referred to by the presi- dent's admirers as the best thing he has done in the field of education. When Wilson, after 25 years service as an educator, resigned the presidency of Princeton in 1910 to accept the nomi- nation f° r governor of New Jersey, there was a general tendency to look askance at the "schoolmaster in pol- itics." However, he was carried Into office on the radical anti-republican wave that swept so many states. When James Smith Jr., leader of the state "machine" which nominated Gov. ernor Wilson, let it be known after the election that he expected the senatorial toga the governor espoused the cause of Martine. the candidate chosen in the popular primary. Governor Wiison won his right. In the 1911 elections tables were : rather turned against Wilson and he lost ground In the legislature. Current comment in many quarters was that the governor had,received a rebuke for his activities the previous year, but Wil- son adherents claimed that he had been merely "knifed" by the bosses of the democratic "machine." In the New Jersey presidential primaries the gov- ernor retrieved his so called lost popu- larity by sweeping every district ex- cept two. in which Smith and James Nugent made a big tight against him. Of the 28 delegates to Baltimore 24 were pledged to Wilson* I tion assembled, reaffirm e.ur devotion t-> tie* principles of democratic government formulated by Thomas Jefferson and enforced by a bUg and J illnstrioits line of democratic prcriden:-. | TARIFF REFORM V. c declare it to be a fundamental principle of ti,i. democratic party that iiie feeleral govern- I ment iimux the constitution has BO right or power to impose or collect tariff duties, except I for the purpose of revenue, and we demand that jth" collection of such taxes shall be limited 10 j the necessities of government, honestly and eco- nomically administered. Tbe high republican tariff is the principal eaoae of the unequal distribution of wealth: it is a system of taxation which makes the rich richer and the poor poorer; under its operations, the American farmer and laboring man ate the chief sufferers; it raises the cost of the necessities of 'ife to them, bet does not protect their product or wage. The fanner pells largely in free mar- kets and buys almost entirely in the protected markets. In the most highly protected indus- tries, such as rottall and wool, steel ami iron, the wages of the laborer* are the lowest paid in ? any of our industries. !We denounce the republican stand on the BSB- ject and assert that American wages arc est i). I lished by competitive conditions and SOt by tin- tariff. IWe favor the immediate downward revision of the existing high, and in many cases prohib- itive tariff duties, insisting that material rcduc tions be speedily made upon the necessaries of life. Articles entering into competition with the trust controlled products, and articles of American manufacture which are sold abroad more cheapiv than at home, should bo put upon the free list. We recognize that our system of tariff taxa- tion is intimately connected with the business of the country and we favor tin- ultimate attain- ment of the 'principle-* we advocate by legisla- tion that will not injure or destroy legitimate Indus Up. We denoune-e the action of President Taft in vetoing the bills to reduce the tariff in the cot- j ton. woolen, metals and cliemioels schedules and tbe farmers' free list bill, all of which were de- signed to give immediate reib-f to the masses from the exactions of the trusts. Tbe republican party, while promising tariff revision, has shown by its tariff legislation that such revision is not to be in the people's Inter- est, and. having been faithless to its pledges of If MS, (t should no longer enjoy the confidence of the nation*. We appeal to the American people to support us in our demand for a tariff for rev- enue only. hh;ii COST OF i.ivivt; The high cost of living is a serious problem in every American home. The republican party, in its platform, attempts to escape from responsi- bility feir present conditions by denying thaWkh**.v are due to protective tariff. We take issue witb them on this subject and charge that excessive prices result in a 1.--r_e measure from tbe high tariff laws enacteel and maintained by fhe repub- lican party and from trusts and commercial con- spiracies fostered and encouraged by snob laws, snd we assert that no substantial relief can bs secured for the people until import duties on the necessaries of life are materially re'iuced and those criminal conspiracies broken tip. \NTI-TRIST LAW A private monopoly is indefensibte. We there fore favor the vig'*rous enforcement of the or.m inal as well as the civil law against trusts and trust officials, and demand the enactment of such additional legislation as may liecotne necessary to make it impossible for a private- monopoly to exist in the I'nited States. We favor the decla- ration by law of the conditions upon which cm* porations shall be |»ermitted to engage in inter- state trade. Including, among others, the preven tion of holding companies, of interlocking di rectors, of stock Watering, of discriminatlem in Mice and control by any corporation of so large a proportion of any industry as to make it a menace to competitive conditions. We condemn the action of the republican ad ministration in compromising with the Standard Oil company and with the tobacco trust, and its failure to invoke the criminal provisions of the anti-trust laws against those corporations after the court declared that from the undisputed facts in the record they had violated the criminal pro- visions of the law. We regret that the Sherman antitrust law has received a judicial construc- tion depriving if of much of its efficacy, and we favor the enactment of legislation which will re- store to the statute the strength of which it is deprived by such interpretation. RIGHTS OF THE STATES We believe in the preservation and maintenance in their fnll strength ami integrity of tbe three co ordinate branches of the federal government the executive, the legislative and the judicial each keepiug within its own bounds and not en- croaching upon the just powers of each of tbe others. Believing that the most efficient results under our system of government are to be attained by the full exercise by the state of their reserved sovereign powers, we denounce as usurpation the efforts of our opponents to deprive the states of any of the rights reserved to them, and to en large and magnify by indirection the powers of | the federal government. We insist on the full exercise of all the pow- ers of the government, both state and national. Ito protect the people from injustice at the bands of those **!''' seek lo make the government a prl- jvate asset in basfoess. There is no twilight zone ' | oetween the nation and the state in which ex- ploiting interests can take refuge from both. It 1!s as necessary that the federal government shall exercise the powers reserved to theiji. but «c In- s'si that federal remeilies for the regulation of Interstate commerce and for the prevention of private monopoly shall be added to and not sub- stituted for state remedies. ELECTION OF SENATORS We congratulate the country npon the triumph of two important reforms demanded in the '»*t national platform namely, the amendment to the federal constitution authorizing an Income fax and the am-mdme-.it providing for the popular election of senators, and we call upon the people of all Ihe states to rally to the support of the pending propositions and further ratification. We note with gratification the unanimous sen- timent in favor of publicity before the election of campaign contributions, a measure demanded In our national platform of J9OB. and at that time opposed by the republican party, and we commend the democratic bouse of representatives tor ci tendiug the doctrine of publicity to recommenda- tions verbal and written, npon which presidential appointments are made, to the ownership and control of newspapers and to the expenditures made by and in behalf of those who aspire to the presidential nominations, and we point for addi- tional lust ifloa tion for this legislation to the enormous expenditure of money in behalf of the president and his predecessor tn the recent con- test fir the republican nomination for president. PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARIES The movement toward more popular government should ho promoted through legislation in each stale whl'-h will permit the expression of th* preference of tbe electors for national candidates at presidential primaries. We direct that the national committee meor porate in the call for the next nominating con ventlon a requirement thst ali expression-; of preference for presidential candidate- shall be given and the selection of delegates ami alter- nate made through a primary election conducted by the party organization in e>ach state where such expression and election arc n-d provided for by state law. 'Committeemen who are hereafter to constitute I tbe membership, of the democratic national com- i mlttee and whoee election is ne>f provided for hy i law shall he efleeea In each state at such prl mary elections and tbe service and authority of committemen. however chosen, shall tvgin Imme- diately npon the receipt of their credentials re- spectively. I I AMPAIGN tONTRIBI TIONS We pledg" the democratic party to the enact- ment of a law pro* biting any corporation from \ contributing to a campaign fund and any i-idi j xidual from contributing any amount above a reasonable maximum. TERMS OF PRESIDENT We favor a single presidential term and to that end urge the adoption of an amendment to the constitution making the president of the I Vnited States ineligible lor re-election, anel we pledge the candidate of this convention to this principle.

REI'l BLK AN EXTRAV At;ANTE We denounce the profligate waste of th>- money wrung from the people !>y oppressive taxation through the lavish appropriations of recent re- publican congresses, which have kept tax'- high and reduced the purchasing power of tbe people's toll. We demand a return to that simplicity and economy which befits a democratic government. and \u25a0 reduction in tho number of useless offices. the salaries of which drain tbe substance of the people. TRANSPORTATION AND WIRES M"e«favor tbe efficient superfladea ami rste regulation of railroads, express companies, tele- grapb and telephone lines engaged in interstate. commerce. To this end we recommend the valu- ation of railroads, express companies, telegraph and telephone lines by the interstate commerce commission, such valuation to take into consul eration the physical value of the property, the original cost, the cost of reproduction, and any element of value that will render the valuation fair and just. We faTor such legislation as will effectually prohibit the railroads, express, telegraph and telephone companies from engaging in business which brings tbem into competition with tbe> shippers or patrons: also legislation preventing the overissue of stocks and bonds by intcr-r.it?? railroads, express companies, telegraph and tele- phone lines and legislation which will _a -neb reduction In transportation rates as eosdl tloaaa will permit, care being tr.ken to avoid re- duction that would e-otnpel a reduction of wages, prevent adequate service, or do injustice to legitimate investments.
