How Former Presidents Appealed for Friendly Congresses McKinley in 1898 pleading for a sympathetic Congress said: "This is no time for divided counsels." We was supported in this appeal by Theodore Roosevelt, then a candidate for governor of New York, ex-President Harrison, Senator Lodge and other Republican leaders. Roosevelt in 1906 during his second Presidential term, declared that a change in the con- trol of Congress would lead to purposeless confusion. He asked the country to give him a Congress dominated by his own political party. President Roosevelt 1908 asked for a Republican Congress for Mr. Taft, declaring that an oppos- ing Congress would be certain "To thwart and baffle the President on every possible occasion." Taft in 1910 asked for a Congress of his own party upon the plea that such a Con- gress would strengthen confidence in his administration. In the face of these Republican precedents in both war and peace it is difficult to see wherein partisan criticism of President Wilson is even remotely justified. President Wilson has not impugned the patriotism or loyalty of men of any party, but he has asked that to which he is entitled, an expression of approval of his leadership would definitely contribute to unity at home and potential influence abroad iii dealing with the problems of the war. His action was warranted by precedent and fully justified by the conduct of his political opponent. Was There Ever A Time When A President Ought To Have Earnest Co-Operation More Than Right Now? Candidates upon the Democratic Ticket are pledged to President Wilson. HENRY FORD for UNITED STATES SENATOR FRANK E. DOREMUS for CONGRESS, First District LOUIS W. McCLEAR for CONGRESS, Thirteenth District JOHN W. BAILEY for GOVERNOR And Every Democratic Nominee to the Last Coroner We are Confident that the Voters of Detroit will stand by Woodrow Wilson in this Great Crisis.
