WILSON WARNS THOSE WHO HINT - DF COMING PANIC Gibbet of Shame for Any Who ‘Uses Power to Start Finan- , Gd Disturbanca, OUTLINES MIS PLANS. Work for ffeas and Nation’s Honor, Not the Interest of Men or Party. President-etect Wilson, at the South- em Roctety’s annual banquet at the Waldorf last night, told eomething of his plans and aspirations, and frankly admitted he dreaded the horde of office seekers he would be compelled to meet Afier his inauguration, It was one of the largest banquets of the year, about thirteen hundred being present. Gov, Wilson said this was not a time for partisanship, and that he had a gib- ‘et for any many who would attempt to siart a panic. Then he thrilled his hearers with these words: “The time has come in this country when men have got to stand up and be counted and put their names down, on thie side or on that, And I believe that when they do there is going to develop @ wonderful enthusiasm for the right things. With that enthusiaem there will be a great discovery mado. It will be dte- covered that honesty and integ- rity mean more for the prospert- ty of the country than any other thing.” Arriving late, the Prestient-clect did not begin to speak until shortly before 11 ofolock. He had prepared no speech end 414 not even use notes. He was stoeted with the “rebel yell” and long cheering, Governor-elect Sulser was among the guesta, and J. P. Morgan was to have been, but he was called to Washington. Gov. Wileon said he was @renty emberracse’ because he hed hagmeeit eo well qpoken of by the prqvtems speakers. Nor MEN OR PARTY Now, BUT 10 “When you voted for me,” he said, “you were voting for what you thought you wanted and what you wished to ac- eomplish, To-night you are looking at the result of your handiwork. As I have eat bere I have not been thinking of what I wish to be but of what I wieh ode, The important thing is what you ipk. The nation is made, not of things, but of ite thoughts and ite pur- peses. You will be laid away, but you will leave behind you nothing but your thoughtewhat you spoke to your neighbor, ‘We should not be thinking now, that the Democratic party has won a great victory, or that certain men have been put into office because they represented & Certain set of ideas, “We should be tiinking that there is & vast deal to be done with the United States. That work is best done by for- getting that we are partisans and by forgetting everything except the honor and integrity of the nation. There are men who cannot understand what con- stitutes the honor of « nation because they cannot understand what consti- tutes the honor of @ man. The honor of @ man does not consist in serving himself but in spending some fine en- ergy that t# in him for what has noth ing to do with hie personal interests, GREAT CHANGE HA6 COME IN VIEWS OF MEN. “There has been a great change in this country; @ great change in the thoughts of men in the position to do things. The thoughis of some men have not changed as much as I could w but there has been @ great change nevertheless. I have had the habit waying things in room that iny au- afences did not jie to hear, I have been very disagrecable in this ruom. But I have sven the time come when cheered sentiments that they received In chilly silence. I the je come when the w York knew that nducting the business of the country in the wrong way; the Wrong Way becaure it was wrong !n spirit. it seems to have been the ilea of some men that they were created trus- tees of the nation and endowed with the power to do the nation’s thinking, They took no account of the sentiment that existed in other parts of the coun try. The great trouble with New York ig that it has always thought that all | the thinking for the country was do: Yew York.

Referring to a remark made by Au- gustus Thomas in a previous speech, he said: “I have been swimming against the streamein New Jersey all day. Yes, we have atraightenod things out in New Jersey, but the trouble is they will not atay straight forever. There are men | | fact that they can count the days until they get rid of me. That's the reason that they are not Going to get ria of me, A man can live in Washington and know what is going on in New Jersey. Yes, and he can say in ‘Washington and elsewhere what he thinks of what 1» going on in New Jor- sey. He can say it, ton, in the only effective way in which such things can be said—by mentioning the names of the gentlemen concerned. The only ‘thing, in my opinion, that has ever made me effective was my ability to talk in specifications. MUST STAND UP AND BE COUNT- ED NOW. “We usually speak of things, but you know you can speak of persons by im- plication in discussing things. So the only way to keep out of trouble in the tamed to come is to see that your names are connected with the things that are 1 do not ‘say that as @ threat, because I don’t suppose there is any one before me.to whom ft would apply, but the time has come in this country when men must stand up and be counted and put thelr names down on thie aide or om that. When they do that I believe there 1s going to come a wonderful thusiasm for the things that are right. And with thet enthusiasm will come the discovery that honor and integrity mean more for the prosperity of the country than any other thing.” ‘The emancipation of the poor was the Great thing to be accomplished, the President-elect went on. Prosperity was not an advantage unless it was per- Vasive, and the emount of wealth was hot so important as the accessibility of wealth. Universal hope, he deciared, only came when men knew that they were free. America, he said, had progressed won- dertully; bad achieved what !t bad seen, {n visions, But recently, he went on, it had dropped back, and had lost time in fighting over things that were not worth while. Now, he declared, « reawakening was coming, ‘We are learning that men are brothers after all, and that until they ‘are brothers in fact they cannot accom- piish the great work of civilization.” OFFICE SEEKERS MAR HI8 DE. LIGHT IN WORK. “The task before me, as far as it re- lates to appointments to office,” he wont on @ moment later, “is wholly hateful. But the task before me as far it pees to the working out of the proble: fore the countey is wholly dalighttul Thia te beoause I know that you hi rey to appeal to the people of United States on the right grounds 5 Dut those who would resist out of busl- ness. That is so long as you mean what you say end as long as there is no hesitation about your attack. “I am not @ brave man, because I know nothing to be afraid of. There are people who are making sinister predic- tions of the trouble that will await us in Washington. They do not need to worry. At the worst the trouble will be Dublic trouble, and the great fury will know what the evidence {s. ‘The news- papers the other day eaid I had made an error by declaring that I woukl keep an open door in Washington. The door will be cen, of course, only to those who have business to transact. I may make myself unpopular by preferring business to etiquette, I shall consider that I have been elected to transact the Public's business and I shall feel bound to out out everything that doesnit touch that business, “But I shall not stay in Washington. I whall feel privileged to go about and to talk with my neighbors and to find out what you and my other neighbors are thinking about. That will an more to me than it will to you, because your thoughts will be more tmportant as they will guide me, while my thoughts and my sctions will be but the refiection of what the nation thinks, TEMPTED TO PROFANITY SINCE HE TOOK TO POLITICS. “I know what @ great many men here but they don't eay what they I know what think, think for publication, they think because in confidence. And they bi ly told me not to tell any one what they think, There 1s eomething in New York of which they seem afraid. In politics, to my way of thinking, there is too much good taste displayed. It !s not considered advisable, in politics, to say what you think unfess t 1s complimen- tary, Sometimes I have found it ad- visable to say things that call for lan- guage which the dictionary cannot sup- ply. “A very curious thing has come to my obrervation sinoa I left the paths of a untyersity and took to the high roads, It 1g the increased temptation to pro- fantty, I think that perhaps {t would be dangerous sometimes to bottle up what you think stances, Such thoughts nod not bi ITCHING, BURNING ECZEMA) QUICKLY RELIEVED BY SAXO SALVE.

Men sometimes thought too much of material gain, he went on, and declared: “It is better to have lost a fortune and to have gained an immortal thought than to have lost the thought and lived on the fortun PUNISH THE MAN WHO DARES TO START A PANIC. “They a aying.” he went on, “that business is going to be disturbed be- cause of economic changes that may take place. Business cannot be dis- turbed unless the minds of those who conduct it are disturbed. Worka on economics tell us that a pante is noth- ing but a state of mind. That must be true, because there is obviously as much wealth in the country the day after a panic as there was the day be- fore, There are, however, unnatural panics. Some panics ocour, I am told, Deonuse certain men think that the wrong thing is going to be done. “I don't know about that, but I be- Neve it is perfectly possible, because the machinery is in existence by which the thing can be done deliberately—the machinery is in existences. But, frankly, I do not believe there ie a man living who dares use that machinery. If there is I promise him, not on my own behalf, ‘but on’ if of my countrymen, a eibbet ag high as Maman.
