This is to be accomplished, as Mr.Wilson explained, in a later speech (April 13, 1911), not by excluding the large capitalists from government, but by including the small, and this will undoubtedly be the final outcome.

He said:-- "The men who understand the life of the country are the men _who are on the make_, and not the men who are made; because the men who are on the make are in contact with the actual conditions of struggle, and those are the conditions of life for the nation; whereas, the man who has achieved, who is at the head of a great body of capital, has passed the period of struggle.

He may sympathize with the struggling men, but he is not one of them, and only those who struggle can comprehend what the struggle is.

I would rather take the interpretation of our national life from the general body of the people than from those who have made conspicuous successes of their lives." But the "Interests" are not to be excluded from the new dispensation.
"I know a great many men," Mr.Wilson says further, "whose names stand as synonyms of the unjust power of wealth and of corporate privileges in this country, and I want to say to you that if I understand the character of these men, many of them--most of them--are just as _honest_ and just as patriotic as I claim to be.
But I do notice this difference between myself and them; I have not happened to be immersed in the kind of business in which they have been immersed; I have not been saturated by the prepossessions which come upon men situated as they are, and I claim to see some things that they do not yet see; that is the difference.

_It is not a difference of interest_; it is not a difference of capacity; it is not a difference of patriotism.
