of Mr.. Hearst or Mr.. Mcclellan; it is

"Mr. Hearst and Mr.. jerome have
great work cut out for them. Whether

the purity Of our elections, and in his
efforts for that Mr.. Hearst should have
the support Of every true American.
Mr.. Hearst's vote is Indicative of pro-
found and very largely justifable dis
satisfaction withspo1itical managers and
with lawless corporation management. -
