DEMOCRACY.

New York oct William RAN
dolph Hearst president OF the Ma
tional Association OF Democratic clubs,
has issued an address to that assocla-
ton urging upon It's members special
activity ana untirIng energy from now
until the closing Of the polls"
Mr. Hearsts address says I'm part.
Il hope that every official and every
individual member OF every club in our
association viii do all that he can. and
more than ever before--to promote and
expound the interests and the beliefs
of genuine Jeifersonian Democracy.
u call upon all members Of the clubs
to begin earnest campaign work imme.
dlately 10 re-organze where re -organ-
i2ation Is necessary and especially 10
respond promptly and energetically TO
every suggestion that may come from
the national management OF the Demo.
cratic party.
y have offered my services and those
Of my newspapers TO the managers OF
the Democracy and IN so far as I have
felt justified as your president In 20
doing have offered the much greater
influence Of the National Association
OF Democratic clubs, pledging the hon
est cooperation Of an the members 10
further effort on the lines OF that gem
ulnc Democracy I'm which a majority OF
the American people believe.
There are special reasons why the
Democrats Of the United States should |
assert themselves and work energet- |
ically in this campaign
First and foremost there Is the per- |
manent duty before as alive must |
restore the government Of this com- |
try 10 the hands of the people for |
whom and by whom the government |
was created
AS Democrats we are Interested es-
pecialy this year in repudiating and
dIsproyug by earnest. sincere work |
the charges made against u.s.
THE president OF the United States
iu his formal letter Of accentance.
calls all Democrats hypocrites and
time servers He says that they are |
compelled to improvisc their Convlc-
tons and that II is no wonder they
forget their convictions over night
1T IS The duty OF the members of the
National Association OF Democrats
clubs and Of all Democrats TO unite
ia proving That Democrats have prin-
ciples. and permanent principles
We should unite TO preach our l.
Democratic beliefs from now until cleo
ton day and to vote for those principles
on that day.
Tho Democratic party has a great
respect for vested rights--lt has also a
great hatred Of vested wrongs. no mat
ter how long or respectable their ante
,edents. Democrats believe IN the
'tatemnt Of their platform that the
rights Of labor are certainly no less
vested. no less sacred' and no less in
illcnoble' than the rights Of capital.
Democrats denounce the expectation |
without process Of law OF WOrkingmen |
and women from the state OF Colorado |
or from amy other parts Of American
soil The Democracy detests all kinds
IF anarchy and especially that which
puts the executive Of q state. backed

above the courts.
