"GIANT" ISSUE or CAMPAIGN.
President Hearst says Destiny of the
Country viii BE Decided This Year.

New York, May 2l-William r. Hearst,
who was recently elected president Of the
National Association Of Democratic
Clubs, in response to numerous inquiries
as 10 his policy and the programme of the
association, to-day gave out an interview
in part, as follows:
''The National Association of Demo
cratic Clubs will transfer its headquar-
ters from Washington to New York. but
branch offices will be maintained in Wash
ington and Chicago, so that the machin-
cry of the organization will Be in close
and constant touch with the Democratic
National Committee and with the Con-
gressional campaign committee.
Every Democratic club. society, or as
sociation in the United States is exp rcted
to unite in the political battle this year.
And the Democratic organization in every
city. town, or village will be asked to as
semble on the night of the Fourth of July
TO celebrate the Declaration of Irdepend-
ence and to receive the news from the
Democratic National Convention. This
ought TO be made memorable display Of
old fashioned American patriotism. In
some cities and towns there will be ban
quets, in others there will be mass meet
ings.
The clubs of each locality will deter
mine for themselves the form of their
celebration. The national association d -
| siTes 10 recall TO the whole country the
! fact that this year the people of the
/ United States must defend the Dscllra-
| tion of independence or abandon it. No
man who has a drop of Democratic blood
| in his veins can fail to assist in this great
national protest against the establish
| ment of subject colonies under the Amer
| lean flag. The great question to be de-
cided at the polls this year is whether
| this country is to continue to be a repub-
! lie. controlled by the people or an empire
/ controlled BY the trusts. All minor qlss-
tions disappear in the presence of this
giant issue.
The National Association of d zmoccatC
| Clubs enters on the work of assisting The
national committee and the regular party
organiza tions i'm the various States with
| "A determined heart and full of confidence
TIE next President must be a d mocr I
/ and reports from all parts Of the country
indicate that the principal work of the
| Democratic clubs next spring will be The
/ inauguration OF Mr.. Bryan at Washing

Special 70 The POST
New Orleans. La, May 21-In Demo-
cratic caucus at Baton Rouge to-day Mur
ply J. Foster and S. d. McEnery were
unanimously nominated for the United
States Senate. In response to a joint res
olutiOn of the two houses, the prospective
Senators appes red before the caucus and
declared their views on important topics
of the day McEnerys views were w5ll
known through his votes In the Senate,
but Fosters opinions were awaited with
interest
He declared strongly against imperial
ism. and declared that trusts We're a Sc
rious evil. the line of demarcation be
tween monopOlistic trusts and valuable
industrial corporations being. however, of
extremely difficult adjustment. Foster
said he was personally a gold monomet-
aIIist. but that he stood by the Democratic
platform of 1896 and intimated that ne
would do his party's bidding even In face
Of his own beliefs.
