Yours of the 18th instant received. In re-
ply to your inquiry as TO whether prefer
Judge Alton 3. Parker or MIR. Wm r.
Hearst as Democratic nominee for Presi-
dent, Will say that as know neither of
the gentlemen'A persoIaily, l have 10
means of Judging of their fitness except by
their general regulations. ! believe that
much of the unrest now prevalent In the
dominant party in national politics is due
10 "a feeling Of insecurity.
II the Democrats wish TO take advan-
tage OF the opportunity. we must oiterto
the country a man who combines inc
necessary qualifications with a lack OF
that erratic disposition which keeps buss-
ness in constant fear. Nothing Is more
llarassing than uncertainty. and q chlet
executive who is an unknown quantity is
n public misfortune, Our business future
is good, unless confidence IS disturbed
Under these circumstances ali able, con-
servative man Is the Imperative necessity
