makes great point of his attack upon
the trusts, and in pamphlet circulat-
ed by the Hearst League of New York
10 found the following summary of his
qualifications for the Office of chief ex-
ecutive:
erich enough to satisfy honest
wealth that he will be a conservator
OF legitimate business interests, he is
the acknowledged champion of the
masses. Jeffersonian enough for the
most exacting democrat; honest
enough to be beyond the reach. of cor
ruption; patriotic enough to consider
the country as whole. Western
enough to be born in the west, and
eastern enough to conduct great en-
terprise in the metropolis. Politician
enough to obtain the greatest popular
Enforcement at the polls ever given
one in New York state. Young enough
TO be progressive, yet old enough to
have exceeded Mr.. Bryan's age when
the latter was nominated in 1896 and
Roosevelt's age when the latter was
nominated in 1900. Philanthropic
enough to endow seats of learning, sell
coal at cost to the freezing poor, and
give away hot coffee and sandwiches
nightly to New York's homeless and
starving in the winter time"
At the coming session of congress
Mr.. Hearst will take his seat in the
house as the representative of the

THE HEARST BOOM is THE ONE TOPIC
Political Circles in Washington Discussing the Presidential Cand
dacy of the New Yorker His Work Labor
man Griggs Is an Enthusiastic Supporter

Political circles here, says New
York dispatch, are discussing the
presidential boom of William r.
Hearst of New York. For several
months he has been making a special
effort to obtain the next democratic
nomination for president. His extern
sive press bureau and experienced
agents are booming his candidacy in
every part of the country, but especial
ly in the labor circles and in the
south, where Hearsts name is now
mentioned as frequently as Germans.
Representative Grlggs of Georgia,
who is chairman of the democratic
campaign committee, has become an
enthusiastic supporter of Hearst, as
has also the secretary of thu commit
tee, Mr.. Charles Edwards. Hearst
himself is president of the national as
ISOLATION of democratic clubs. One of
his favorite methods is to send politi-
cal agents to the meetings of labor Or
CARNATIONS and after working up en-
thusiasm in his behalf to have the
same expressed in resolutions which
are afterwards distributed in pam
phlets. Last August such a meeting
was held here, and it is now being de-
scribed as ga vast antitrust meeting
held under the auspices of organized
labor, at which Mr.. Hearst was nomi-
mated for president by reclamation and
amid scenes of enthusiasm" He
