The True Story of Woodrow Wilson By DAVID LAWRENCE. CHAPTER IX. The Private Life of Woodrow Wilson and the Whispering Campaign. Of no phase of Woodrow Wilson's life was there less actual knowledge and at the same time more misrepre- | sentation than the personal side. The | true story has never appeared in “print largely because there never was an oceasion to take public notice of that which originated in partisan valitics. Almost from the beginning of his political career Mr. Wilson could not | bring himself to believe that what what the members of his family did. whom he entertained and whom he did not, was of any business to the newspapers or the public. On more than one occasion he exhibited indig- nation over the inquiries of the press relative to his personal plans from day to day—he never did become ac- customed to the fact that just as the secret service men were constantly in the company of a President of the United States, so also the repre- sentatives of the large press assocla- tions must keep their eyes on thelr Prestdent, or at least know where he + is every minute of the day. Reasons for Eaplonage, i , One of the reasons for this espio- nage was a practical one. Strange as it may seem, there develops every now and then a rumor that the Presl- dent of the United States has been assassinated. Unless it can be in- stantly investigated the rumor travels onward. Just what the source of these rumors really is no one has ever determined, although newspaper * men suspect that the rumors are originated by persons who are in- terested in playing the stock market, and hope that the rumor will gain Currency and that the stocks will be affected before the truth cap. be de- termined. Perhaps the author is superstitious, but in his experience in trailing Presidents for a large news association nothing ever hap- Dened except on those few occaslons when the newspaper men took a , chance and left their assignment be- lieving all was well. Not a news- paper man was with Mr. Wilson, for instance, when he motored from Red Bank, N. J, to Princeton on the Saturday night before he was elected President of the United States. His automobile struck an obstacle and he was painfully injured. At another time when Mr. Wilson had become the presidential nominee he . objected to being followed to New " York one afternoon by a squad of newspaper men. He sald he did not mind one man being sclected to act for the group. The author went to New York with Wilson, who for some peculiar reason insisted upon taking street cars In traveling the long route from the railroad station | to the University Club. As he alighted from a street car at Madison avenue he stepped in front of a truck and some one caught his arm in time to prevent an accident. Needless to say, I tried to convince Mr. Wilson that he . would never be in personal danger if | he permitted the newspaper corre- gpondents to accompany him. His ideas on the subject, however, never changed. But, after all, the newspaper men did keep close tabs on Mr. Wilson's movements after he came to the White House, or checked up with the secret service men whenever possibe. Foes Searched for Scandal. When Mr. Wiison first came into mnational prominence in the cam- palgn for the presidential nomina- tion in the months preceding the Baltimore convention, his personal . life was the subject of a penetrating investigation on the part of a chain of newspapers who were interested in advocating the candidacy of an- other man. The Investigators na- turally went to the little town of * Princeton to search for something in Mr. Wilson's private life which would lend itself to scandalous exposure. They supposed that Mr. Wilson's enemics in Princeton would be the first to disclose facts which would be damaging to his political future, but they were mistaken. “One of these newspaper men came to me and offered a large sum of money,” sald a Princeton professor to the author in 1912, “if I would write_an article even hinting that| Mr. Wilson's personal conduct ing {republican administration iWlilson on at there wera republicans in clos touch with the gossip of the demo- cratic convention, certain republicans who heard the rumor began talking about it and .wondered if it were worth investigating further. The in- vestigation was made and disclosed nothing Improper and the matter was dropped. Denounced as Abaurd. One of the highest officials of the then in pPower subsequently told the author that in a casual conversation with Dean Andrew F. West, Mr. Wilson's archenemy. in Princeton, the latter {had said in 1912 that the gossip at he did in the privacy of his home.|Baltimore was absurd and was al- together news to the people who had known Mr. Wilson for twenty years or more in Princeton. When Mr. Wil- son was clected President he took Mrs. Wilson and his family to Ber- muda for a rest. They occupled the icottage of the woman who had been mentioned as the reciplent of at- Itention from Mr. Wilson in earlier {heavy as to create a deflcit. ldays. She was not in Bermuda at |the time. When the President-elect and Mrs. Wilson returned to New York they motored from the dock to the hotel where their hostess of Bermuda was making her home. Mrs. least two occasions later invited her to the White House for luncheon. The correspondence which sprung up was typical of Mr. Wilson's gen- eral attitude toward old friends. He frequently discussed public matters in his letters and found a means of self-expression in these communica- tions. It was an inspiration to him to write. He made no especial secret fof his fondness for letter writing. These mental adventures took him as completely out of his day's bur- dens and responsibilities as’a good detective story or a game of golf proves diverting to so many men nowadays. ©Old Gossip Is Revived. From 1912 until the latter part of 1915 not a word Wwas heard about this episode. But when announcement was made of Mr. Wilson's prospec- tive marriage to Mrs. Galt there was a noticeable revival of the old gos- sip. At one time the renewal of this campaign was attributed to German sympathizers who were par- ticularly bitter because of Mr. Wil- son’s alleged unneutrality. By the time the 1916 presidential contest was in full swing the same rumors which had been heard in 1912 had been so widely distributed that hardly a part of the United States was immune from the whispering campaign. The author in his canvass of political sentiment from coast to coast in 1916 visited many states and invariably was asked what effect the wide- spread discussion of Mr. Wilson's per- sonal life was having in other states. The democratic national campaign committee was fully aware of the effort to damage Mr. Wilson's candidacy, but | was powerless to meet the accusations by any direct means except to point to his exceptionally happy home life. Nothing but the death of Mrs. Ellen Axson Wilson in August, 1914, broke the bond which had existed between these two people since they first became engaged In 1883. Mrs. Wilson gave her whole life and energy to her husband, standing devotedly at his side through the strain of his many battles at Prince- ton and through the trying days when his health broke, for the pressure on him was so great that he twice suf- fered a serious breakdown before he came to the White House. “Tip” Proves Baseless, Just what was the true source of the effort to hurt Mr. Wilson by a campaign against his- personal life will probably never be known. That it was malicious cannot be doubted. For instance, about a year after the death of Mrs. Wilson, on the night before Thanksgiving day, 1915, several of the more important newspaper bureaus in Washington were | called on the telephone and mysteriously | given a tip to the effect that important court_proceedings had been filed involv- ing Mr. Wilson. The newspaper men could not afford to ignore the informa- tion, and yet they disbelieved it. Many of them spent the better part of a week investigating the story and found it baseless. Dissatisfled with this the rumor mongers tried another tack, and insisted that prominent lawyers knew the cir- cumstances. Every lawyer named was i visited, but none knew anything about it. The fact was the story was made out of whole cloth for some purpose the i true nature of which probably is known Jonly to those who originated it. Sneers from the Senate cloakroom were carried to Mr. Wilson, and helped to develop certain personal bitterness with men on Capitol Hill. Occasionally Mr. Wilso; was told that one or two newspapers had planned to attack him in connection Princeton had been improper. You know_how bitterly I despise Wood- row Wilson, but I told that news-| paper representative I not onlyj would not write anything for him,| but that there was nothing to write.’ The pursuit of something that would be injurious did not end.| Through some Irresponsible source | the newspaper representative learned that Mr. Wilson had at'one time en- | gaged in_a correspondence with a woman of brilllant intellect. This was promptly magnified entirely out of its proportion and was whispered about the corridors. of the democratic national convention at n:hlmnr&' But_it failed to hurt Mr. Wilson's candidacy.
