A quotation attributed to Woodrow Wilson extols the flag as a symbol of political liberty and free self-government, asserting that its meaning transcends location, antecedents, and race. It emphasizes enduring American traditions against any contrary erosion.
The Kemmerer Camera quotes editor Robert R. Rose arguing that constitutional rules for U S senate candidates are set by federal law, not the Wyoming constitution, and that Kendrick’s qualifications are widely recognized.

The Rocky Mountain News notes President Wilson can cite a $5.8 million increase in June 1916 postal savings deposits versus June last year as campaign material.
