There has never been in journalism more cruel and silly display than Hearst is making of himself. If the man has not gone daft he must by this time feel within his being the unwonted emotion of shame. His offer of $5O,0O0 for the apprehension of the person who caused the wreck of the Maine was not only brutal but vulgar beyond all expression. He knew there was no more possibility of obtaining an exclusive" explanation of the tragedy than there would have been of having an exclusive" account of a total eclipse. The proposition was a boorish bid for cheap advertising, nothing more. To make capital of the nations murdered dead, to attract attention even at the cost of donning cap and bells, to take the lead of the Govern could only be an impertinence-all these ignoble ambitions crystallized in- to the $50,000 insult to the intelligence of the country and the world. Once, for Hearst to have been guilty of this would have. caused surprise. To be able to accuse him of dense stupidity and convict him shows a recent de- velopment in his process of degener- l acy. To be so utterly devoid alike of humor and humane sentiment leaves l Hearst with several essential traits lacking. There Is such a thing as grim humor, but this ridiculous offer is not due to recognition of the fact Humor may be grim, but an ebulli- ton of heartlessness as somber as the i thought of dead sailors sinking into the ooze of Havana harbor is mere ab- sence of soul, shock to decency and an exhibition of sordid and callous selflshness.

 E. B BLOOM. How did they explain the matter when you saw them?" was asked.
 They did not explain at all. I met MT. Bloom and he said it could not he helped and that Mccoy and Triplett thought the best thing for me to do would be to run as an in- dependent for the Legislature against Foster, that Mccoy and Friplett were not satisfied with Eos ter and wanted him out of the way. but told him that they could easily fix that or anything else they wanted. l said this to draw Mir. Bloom out. He told me to go see Triplett and he would explain every thing satisfacto- rily." "
 :" Did you gu to see Friplett and Mccoy as Bloun suggested?" was asked.
 "l did not for l was disgusted with the whole business, but when
  l next saw Bloom, he said that Triplett had reconsidered the matter and thought it best not to run as an independent against Foster, but to contest his seat before the Legisla- ture. told him if he wanted any one to contest Fosters seat. why not get Jesse Bush to do it, he was one of their own men,
 What did he say to thIs?'
 He said Jesse could do it, but as l had received more votes than Jesse, l was the man to do it. but told hini l would have nothing to do further with his crowd. That they had willfully deceived me in every thing, that they had no regard for their promises and would do any, thing to accomplish their purposes" Have you had any other eonyer- sation with them since?" asked the GRAPHIC.
 .'l have not, for having seen their perfidy, l was through with them and their ways forever. And I know the people of Jefferson county will rebuke such practice In the county election and their name will he Ichabod."
 Everybody in the county knows Mr. Blackwell and his reputation is beyond reproacb. What he says he knows personally to be true and supports 1t with "colfirmation strong as holy writ" The treason to the people is so plain that he who runs may read, and we do not be- lieye the voters of the county are so unmindtul of right and duty as to tolerate such practices.
