William r.. Hearst, President of the
National Association, Issues
an Address.

Washington, May 31.-Mr. William
R. Hearst, president of the National
Association of Democratic Clubs. had
formal conference with the princi-
pal democratic leaders in Washington
at the Metropolitan hotel regarding
the plan of campaign to be followed
in the approaching presidential strug-
gle. Senator Jones, chairman of the
democratic national committee; Rep
resentative Richardson. democratic
leader in the house, and chairman of
the congressional committee, Judge
Caauncey f. Black; Representative
Slayden and others were present. 1t
was agreed that the democratic ma
tional committee, the Associate of
Democratic Clubs and the democratic
congressional campaign committee
should work in harmony. At the close
of the conference President Hearst is
sued the following:
.'To the Democratic Clubs and Societies
of the United States: Recent events in the
history of the United States point to the
approaching anniversary of the birthday
of the nation as day that should be cele-
brated with special fervor this year. There
are those in the nation who seek to create

ciples of government expressed in the Dec

surrender their moral leadership among
nations in order to crafty newly born In
stinct for imperial power. founded on
colonial system. All the democratic clubs
and societies are earnestly requested to as
semble on the Fourth of July, and all patri-
otic citizens, regardless of past party affiIi-
ations, are urged to join with them in
new pledge of fidelity to the republic as the
fathers made it, Let the people of the
United States unite in their various cities |
towns and villages in a demonstration of
the confidence they feel in the form of gov
ernment under which the nation has grown |
TO its present greatness. The danger which |
threatens the country is real and imminent |
1t seems appropriate, therefore, that eiti- |
zens who believe that the Declarat ton OF |
Independence is not merely an academic |
document should meet together on this |
day and give voice to the national septi- |
ment that all men are created free ard !

he will be tried for treason. The Daily

foregone conclusion thar congress
will let the Philippines alone and di-
rect the president TO pursue any policy
he chooses. The republicans are so
thoroughly scared over the Cuban rot
tenness that they dread any mention
of the Philippines. The scandals ere
much greater there, but the adminis-
tration hopes to censor every thing un,
til after election.
Hanna's Campaign Fund.
Mark Hanna's campaign fund is by
no means as large as he desires. The
various interests which he assessed so
successfully four years ago are very
slow in contributing this time. So the
republicans instead of boasting of their
$25,000,ooo campaign fund as they did
few weeks ago, are talking of cam
paign of education" That is a pleas
ant euphemism for a campaign of mis-
representation. But even that takes
a lot of money. And the congressman
who voted for the Porto Rico bill and
heradministrationi iniquities, under a
promise of a big campaign fund, are
very much disheartened over the pros
pect of facing indignant constituents
and trying to make a campaign on
principle. The democrat can do that,
but it is little difficult for the repub-
licans with the record of this congress
in evidence.

The constitutional amendment will
take years to become incorporated in
that instrument, even if it is started

fall fat. The republican Mckinley ad-
ministration has SO diligently pro-
NOTED trusts and all their works that
a pompous antitrust declaration by
a congressional committee will not de-

shall hear no more of the proposed
