T ' THE TASK ACCOMPLISHED. (The Tifton Gazette.) Our country’s president is on bis way home from France, bis task across the water accomplished. No matter what may have been our opinion of bis trip abroad, all of us know now that bad not Mr. Wilson attended the peace confer ence the League of Nations would have failed at the beginning and that, peace that, was signed Saturday would have been only a tempo rary makeshift until the world could again make ready for war. We know now that Mr. Wilson set aside all precedent and went to France to make sure that the peace which had been bought with the blood and sacrifice of America's best and noblest should not be an em pty tiling. The men be sent across had made a perfect job; be went to see that they were not robbed of the fruits of victory. We know now that bad not Woodrow Wilson gone to France, the peace conference would have again left the weak nations of Europe at the mercy of the strong. We know now that had he invited members of the American senate to accompany him they would have added to the confusion and multi plied the difficulties. We know now that the attendance of our president secured for the world the opportunity to insure peace for all time by the maintenance of the League of Nations. Woodrow Wilson returns from Europe an older man. but with his name securely written on the pages of history, lie met there the best trained diplomats of the leading nations of the Old World, and he won from them practically every point which be crossed the ocean to se cure. lie won, not alone because of bis personal ability, but because of bis sincerity and disinterestedness, and because be went as the repre sentative of a nation which asked nothing for itself, but all for human ity and world liberty. Having won his battle for these abroad, Mr. Wilson comes now to carry the tight for humanity and universal liberty before his home people. And here lie will win overwhelmingly because the people of America want the things be represents.
