WILSON THE EXECUTIVE When, on March 4, 1913, Woodrow - 23 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. Wilson entered the White House, the first - 24 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. Democratic president elected in twenty years, no - 25 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. one could have guessed the importance - 26 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. of the rôle which he was destined to play. - 27 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. While business men and industrial leaders - 28 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. bewailed the mischance that had brought - 29 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. into power a man whose attitude towards - 30 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. vested interests was reputed none too - 31 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. friendly, they looked upon him as a - 32 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. temporary inconvenience. Nor did the increasingly - 33 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. large body of independent voters, disgusted - 34 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. by the "stand-pattism" of the Republican machine, - 35 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. regard Wilson much more seriously; - 36 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. rather did they place their confidence in a - 37 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. reinvigoration of the Grand Old Party through - 38 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. the progressive leadership of Roosevelt, - 39 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. whose enthusiasm and practical vision had - 40 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. attracted the approval of more than four - 41 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. million voters in the preceding election, - 42 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. despite his lack of an adequate political - 43 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. organization. Even those who supported Wilson - 44 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. most whole-heartedly believed that his work - 45 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. would lie entirely within the field of domestic - 46 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. reform; little did they imagine that he - 47 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. would play a part in world affairs larger - 48 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. than had fallen to any citizen of the United - 49 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. States since the birth of the country. - 50 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. The new President was fifty-six years old. - 51 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. His background was primarily academic, - 52 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. a fact which, together with his Scotch-Irish - 53 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. ancestry, the Presbyterian tradition of his family, - 54 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. and his early years spent in the South, - 55 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. explains much in his character at the time - 56 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. when he entered upon the general political - 57 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. stage. After graduating from Princeton - 58 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. in 1879, where his career gave little indication - 59 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. of extraordinary promise, he studied law, and - 60 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. for a time his shingle hung out in Atlanta. He - 61 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. seemed unfitted by nature, however, for either - 62 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. pleasure or success in the practice of - 63 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. the law. Reserved and cold, except with his - 64 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. intimates, he was incapable of attracting - 65 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. clients in a profession and locality where - 66 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. ability to "mix" was a prime qualification. A certain - 67 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. lack of tolerance for the failings of his fellow - 68 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. mortals may have combined with his Presbyterian - 69 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. conscience to disgust him with the hard give-and-take - 70 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. of the struggling lawyer’s life. He sought - 71 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. escape in graduate work in history and - 72 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. politics at Johns Hopkins, where, in 1886, he - 73 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. received his Ph.D. for a thesis entitled - 74 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour.

Politics. Despite his early distaste to - 81 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. the career of practicing lawyer, Wilson - 82 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. was by no means the man to bury himself in - 83 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. academic research. He lacked the scrupulous - 84 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. patience and the willingness to submerge - 85 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. his own personality which are characteristic of the - 86 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. scientific scholar. His gift was for generalization, - 87 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. and his writings were marked by clarity of - 88 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. thought and wealth of phrase, rather - 89 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. than by profundity. But such qualities brought - 90 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. him remarkable success as a lecturer - 91 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. and essayist, and constant practice - 92 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. gave him a fluency, a vocal control, and a - 93 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. power of verbal expression which assured - 94 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. distinction at the frequent public meetings - 95 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. and dinners where he was called upon to - 96 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. speak. Professional interest in the science of - 97 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. government furnished him with topics of far wider - 98 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. import than the ordinary pedagogue cares to - 99 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. handle, and he became, even as professor, - 100 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. well known outside of Princeton. His - 101 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. influence, already broad in the educational - 102 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. and not without some recognition in the - 103 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. political world, was extended in 1902, when he - 104 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. was chosen President of the University. - 105 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. During the succeeding eight years Wilson - 106 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. enjoyed his first taste of executive power, - 107 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. and certain traits which he then - 108 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. displayed deserve brief notice. Although - 109 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. a "conservative" in his advocacy of the - 110 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. maintenance of the old-time curriculum, based - 111 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. upon the ancient languages and mathematics, - 112 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. and in his opposition to the free elective system, - 113 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. he proved an inflexible reformer as regards - 114 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. methods of instruction, the efficiency - 115 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. of which he was determined to establish. - 116 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. He showed a ruthless resolution to - 117 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. eliminate what he looked upon as undemocratic - 118 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. social habits among the undergraduates, and did - 119 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. not hesitate to cut loose from tradition, - 120 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. regardless of the prejudice thereby aroused - 121 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. against him. As an executive he evoked intense - 122 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. admiration and virulent dislike; the Board of - 123 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. Trustees and the alumni body were alike - 124 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. divided between enthusiastic support and bitter - 125 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. anathematization of the measures he proposed. - 126 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. What seems obvious is that many graduates - 127 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. sympathized with his purposes but were alienated - 128 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. by his methods. His strength lay chiefly - 129 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. in the force of his appeal to democratic - 130 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. sentiment; his weakness in complete - 131 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. inability to conciliate opponents. - 132 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. At the moment when the issue of the - 133 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. struggle at Princeton was still undecided, opportunity - 134 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. was given Wilson to enter political life; an - 135 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. ambition for such a career had evidently - 136 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. stirred him in early days and was doubtless - 137 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. resuscitated by his success as a public - 138 - The Project Gutenberg eBook of Woodrow Wilson and the World War, by Charles Seymour. speaker.
