IVADESBOKO. W. 22ND. 1912
J A3. G. BOTOX, Publisher.
WILSOX AND IIARVEV.
A abort while ago Harper's
Weekly, which had teen one of
Oorornor Woodrow Wilson strong
est supporters Cor the presidency
took his name from its masthead
and ceased Its editorial support of
him. Later Col. Henry Watterson
said that, in answer to a direct
Question of the editor of Harper's,
Governor Wilson told the editor the
Weekly's support was Injuring his
candidacy. Several papers, to whom
the name of Wilson Is anathema,
have been trying since that time to
destroy the Governor's popularity
among the people, their chief charge
being that he is deficient in grati
tude. We think the following edi
torial from the Baltimore Evening
Sun gives the correct view, and
that this incident IS;, only evidence of
finvmor Wilson's: superior fitness
for the Presidency. -
"From Colonel Watterson's accour
of the Wilson-Harvey incident it
appears that Governor Wilson's as
sertion that the support of Harper's
Weekly was doing him more harm
than good was not volunteered by
the New Jersey man, but came In
resDonse to a direct Question from
Colonel Harvey. It also appears
that nothing of a discourteous na
ture, even of an unfriendly nature,
noRAed durlne the interview. The
worst that can be Baid of Governor
Wilson, then, is that he was willing
to be frank .at the expense of hurt
ing his friend's feelings.
"The Watterson account lends ad
ditional weight to the suggestion
made in this column yesterday that
Mr. Wilson is perhaps one of those
men "who by reason of certain de
ficiencies on their personal side are
thereby made more capable and ef
ficient Dublic officers. These men
are not uncommon in political life
Grover Cleveland was one of them
"Everv nubile official must be
either a man's man or a state's
man. The former is much the more
pleasant to deal with and to asso
ciate with. He is companionable,
sympathetic and warm-hearted. Th
latter makes the better Major or the
better Governor or the better Presl
dent. He is academic, logical and,
perhaps cold-blooded. The former
asks "What's the Constitution be
tween friends?" ; The latter asks.
What; are friends where principles
are concerned? In his treatment of
former Senator Smith, In New Jer
sey, Woodrow Wilson indicated that
he was of the latter class. His be
havior .toward that gentleman, how
ever, was certainly in behalf of the
public welfare. Colonel Harvey, of
course, is not to be classed with
Boss Smith, but the man of the
type" we are discussing would not
' give way to a worthy friend any
, more than to an unworthy one.

another party, which called
the Conservative. had nominated
Gen. Gilbert C. Walker. General
Walker was a Union,-not a Confed
erate, officer. At the close of the
war General Walker had settled in
Norfolk, Va., and gone inta business
"General Walker joined the Con
servative party, which for the pur
pose of placating Northern senti
ment in Virginia, nominated , him
for Governor. The Conservatives
believed that General' Walker could
be elected if General Wellls did not
use the soldiers, who were in mili
tary occupation of Virginia, in poll
tics, unfairly and adversely to the
Conservative ticket.
"Such were the conditions in Vir
ginia at that time. Mrs. Gaines be
lieved that Gen.Robert E. Lee ought
to see General Grant, who on March
4, 1869, had become President.and
that General Grant to insure fair

the political sentiment of the State,

New York Times.
St.- Clair McKelway, editor of the
Brooklyn Eagle, who in the late
sixties and during the early years
of the first Presidency of Gen. U.
S. Grant was a newspaper corres
pondent in Washington, told in de
tail to a reporter for the Times at
his home, 21 Monroe Place, Brook

how General Grant, at the reques
of Gen. Robert E. Lee, had issued
an order that saved Virginia from
the worst conditions of reconstruc
tion which had befallen Texas, Louis
iana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia,
South Carolina and Florida. This
story was briefly told for the first
time in the Brooklyn Egle of last
Saturday, in the leading editorial

visit him and talk-over the itua
tlon in Virginia, in which State an
election for Governor was impend
ing. It waa Mr. McKelway who vis
ited General Lee and suggested the
conference.
This Is the story as told to the
Times reporter hy Mr. McKelway yes
terday afternoon:
"Between 1867 and '697 after the
impeachment5 of Andrew Johnson
and his acquittal," Mr. McKelway
said, "I was often in Washington,
and from December, 1869, after
the election of General Grant to the
Presidency until the end of 1870, I
was constantly in Washington. I
was at that time the assistant Wash
ington correspondent of the New
York .World. George W.Adams, now
dead, was the chief correspondent.
Each man looked up his own news,
I taking the White House and the
Senate and Mr. Adams some of the
departments and the House.
"My first wife, who died some
years ago, was a Missouri woman
who had been raised in Kentucky.
Her family originally came from VlrJ
glnia, where she had relatives and
friends.' This brought her into re
lations , -with Mrs. Myra Clark
Gaines, the widow of Major-General-Galnes,
who roomed opposite to us
in the old National Hotel. . The two
ladies became very well acquainted
and I became very well acquainted
with Mrs. Gaines. She very kindly
took a strong liking to me.
