Duluth, Minnesota – Leading Labor Paper Rejoices
From The Labor World of November 11, 1916:
WOODROW WILSON RE-ELECTED
IN HOTTEST FIGHT SINCE
CIVIL WARThe election of President Wilson at this writing seems certain. Considering the character of the opposition to his re-election the victory is wonderful. The power of plutocracy in America has been destroyed. Special privilege is doomed. The forces that have strangled justice and robbed the people for 50 years back are crushed. A new nation is born. A new freedom permeates the atmosphere. Human rights will take precedence over the claims of the dollar.
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE HAVE THEIR FACES TURNED TOWARD THE MORNING SINGING NEW SONGS OF LIBERTY.
