"A lady writes from Cal:

washington went Hearst-mad last
night Everybody took up his cause.
The people did not know why. but they
just couldn't help it.
The crowds in front Of The Times
office. where the returns were given
out, were to ali appearances Hearst
enthusiasts. Hearst, however, was no
the only idol. Every reform candidat
when his name or picture was d
played on the screen, whether he ".
gaining or losing, was given a rousing
cheer.
1t was, pure and simple. revolution
ary gathering It was the same at ev-
cry place in town where gathering
collected to hear the election returns.
1t was an off year election, but the
crowds were there with all the enthu-
siasm of a Presidential contest. In the
early evening when it looked like the
regulars" We're sure of winning, the
crowd was dead. Just as soon as
Hearst, Weaver or any other of the
reform candidates showed signs of
strength, then the crowd let loose. The
voting on the Poe amendment in Mary
land was also eagerly watched, as was
also the fate of Boss Cox in Ohio.
1T is time the country was waking
up said middle-aged Baltimorean.
4 knew today that that Poe amend
ment was going to get it good and
proper. and the Democrats are the ones
that killed 1t. In Baltimore today its
0efeat was the general topic of conver
sation, and I guess that will end any
attempt at the disfranchisement Of the
eolored people"

At this juncture Hearst's picture was

eagerly watching the results. The pic

Pale and shaking with anger, William
Randolph Hearst uttered these words

strength and ability 20 fight the crowd
that set upon him.
From many parts of Manhattan re-
ports poured in OF the greatest violence
and crimes at the polls that New York

strongest days were declared to be
mild compared to the deeds committed
yesterday in the Tammany districts led
by Thomas Foley. Big Tim" Sullivan,
Little Tim" Sullivan. John F. Oakley
and Charles T. Murphy.
Murphy refrained from appearing in
person during these attacks, but oak
ley, commissioner of water, gas and
electricity led his own band through the
Fourteenth Assembly district and with
clubs and fists beat the Hearst and Jer-
ONE men without mercy.

by aides summoned from every part OF
