ON THE JOB
We have had Presidents
who regarded the duties of
Ihe Chief Magislibatracy as an
easy lMiilline. There have been
others who used (heir position
to exploit themselves by exten
sive travel, public shows and
incessant speech-making.
.Asked to appear on Ihe stump
in behalf of Democratic can
didates this fall, Mr. Wilson
places his responsibilities as
President above those that at
tach to party leadership and
says with reference to the
state of war in Europe: “Every
patriotic man ought now to stay
on his job until the crisis i>
past, aml_ ought to stay (where
his job can best be done.”
'(laying ion the job in 111 i
case means more than ah ap
preciation icf duty and more
than a willingness to forego
pleasure. If reveals an un
shaken confidence in file intel
ligence and justice of the
people. The President has made
his record and is willing (to
abide by it. His party lias made
its record and lie can see no
reason why much talk should be
necessary to convince his
ccuntrynu u that with so many
achievements to its credit it
-hould not be cordially indors
ee! ait the polls.
This is an assumption that
the people of the Uunted States
as well as their representative?
at Washington are on the job.
To stay on the job is wisdom al
all times, but in tbe present
crisis it is a policy which in
private life has been forced up
in millions of anxious busin
ess men, who are in no mood
for distracting sensations or
diversions. In the grim com
pulsion that is upon them they
will find cm.-uuragemcnil- in Hie
knowledge that Hie administra
tors of the Government are at
their posts, alert, laborious and
trie.
W odrow Wilson has been
on Ihe job for peace, on (he job
for fair taxation, on (the, job
for li nest business, un the job
for self-respecting industry
on the job for sound currency
and on the job for just banking.
We believe Hint a great people
who are also on the job will
are <_ f him and of every
i er of Congress, no mat
te ia! his parly label m;jy be
wl has supported him.-New

WAR WILL NOT DELAY
THE PANAMA FAIR
11 is good lo hear from
Secretary Bryan that the Pan
ama-Pacific exposition writ be
held next year as announced.
Not that any one should have
doubted for a moment the in
teutioji lto celebrate the world’s
greatest victory of peace on
lime, despite the pestilence of
war now sweeping half the
world’s civilized area. There
- corns little hope now iof gain
ing official exhibits from Eng
land, Germany op France for
the fair. But England and Ger
many have declined to be of
ficially represented some time
before the war clouds appeared
t least to unofficial eyes. Rus
sia and Austria and Belgium
mar also he counted out, we
suppose. And Italy has de
clined to oxh'bit. Rut these
losses will simply render > the
exposition predominately Ariier
ican, and as such more eloquent
1\ indicative Hi in ever of Ihe
sin ng new bond which Ihe
canal constitute" between the
two American continents.—
