Three Draughtsmen Are
Added to Force AL

~ NE of the many signs of the activ-

HEARST HOLDS CENTER OF N[X y0RKS POLITICAL STAGE JUST NOW
People look upon the publisher as a martyr
to rotten political system and are ready
to demonstrate their loyalty at the polls.

Governor Higgins has the advantage of
patronage. This might not prevent I'm
from being unhorsed if the Repup..can
organization men were united under the
leadership of Odell. But with the Platt
men quarreling with the Odell men it be-
gins has a personal machine in the state
strong enough to dominate the situation
and force his nomination.
The launching of the presidential boom
of Richard Pearson Hobson by his
friend L. b. Musgrove, was regarded as
of the nature of a possibility, though not
of a probability until Governor Hoch
was nominated the day following, in
spite of the connecting Of his name with
that of Mrs. Stanley, the wife of the
former governor and the allegations
that the Kansas executive had attempted
to kiss her. Then one of the leading
metropolitan newspapers nominated as
kissing ticket for 1908, "Hoch and
Hobson," and New York and adjoining
states cofIHlenctu 10 see the joke. f1OD-
son would probably never have been Sc
riously considered for the presidency on
account of his youth and. his inexperi-
ence IL it had not been for the fact lat
Judge Alton B. Parker and his associ-
ates have been trying to educate the
people or this section up to the possi-
bilities of the naming of southern man
in 1908. And Hobson appeared to be one
of the few good southern men, in signt.
Some one remembering Andrew Carne-
gie's kissing experiences in the south
suggested the ironmaster for campaign
manager of the 'Hoch and Hobson"
ticket, the theory being advanced that
he wou-l willingly finance the cam
pagn and donate a large sized check.
Then it was recalled that Mr.. Carnegie.
unlike Hoch and Hobson. stood for the
principles of Gladstone Dowie and that
he could not be relied upon TO furnish
the sinews of war. This in Itself proved
the undoing and the ending of the Hoch
and Hobson ticket

Anew YORK, May Fittings appear
IN to be shaping themselves for the
greatest gubanotorial campaign in
the history of this or any other state.
If surface indications count for any
thing within the next sixty days the
Empire state will be an armed camp
from end to end, knives and daggers.
figuratively speaking, though occasion
ally the real articles will be in the hands
of hundreds of thousands of voters And
il the election of last autumn is any
criterion for bitterness the coming cleo
ton will be unequalled at least so far
as a state campaign is concerned
The trouble this year appears to be
that w. r. Hearst has injected a new
element into state politics whicn has de-
stroyed the balance of power And what
ever else Mr.. Hearst may or may MT
be, he is not a politician-he does not
play politics according to the rules of the
game. Let men call him what they will,
anarchist. agitator, all of the bad words
in the vocabulary. he cannot be called a
politician. Apparently he cares no more
for the friendship or the enmity of men
like Leader Murphy of Tammany hall
or Leader McCarren of Kings county
than he cares for the good or the bad
opinion of an office boy AS for his po-
sition which Tammany hail gave him
in congress, evidently he cares little or
nothing about the post because he rarely
attends session of congress.
Hearsts greatest asset in this city to-
day is the belief that personally he
really did not want to be mayor: rnat ne
really accepted the nomination OF the
lorn-hope-in -good-cause basis: that in
fighting for the opening of the contest
ed ballot boxes and a recount he was
actuated not by a desire to be mayor.
but by desire to secure legislation
which shall provide for the purity of
elections in the future.
all wrong; that Hearst is insanely am
bilious to be congressman, mayor gov
ernor and president in rapid succession,
but by refusing him a recount the state
legislature has certainly given him the
opportunity to pose as a martyr in the
cause of the people. And if there car
be found a stronger political asset to-
day than this it is ''up to the Demo
cratic and Republican leaders" to pro-
duee it.
When it is announced that the Inde-
lpendence League will probably ho'd its

TO be worth $1,000

He Intended to return TO New York on
steamer leaving Antwerp on Oct.
20 last. His uncle, Senator Bard, was
AT the pier to meet him when the ship
arrived, but he did not appear among
the passengers. Senator Bard then
applied to the New York police who
cabled TO the Brussels authorities, and
the search for the young man has been
steadily pressed since that time
When the European officials failed
TO find the young man, Senator Bard
asked that Fogarty be permitted to 60
abroad to prosecute the search. and
he was granted six weeks leave of ali
sence without pay This leave later
was extended TO March |. In his ca
pacity as a private detective, Fogarty
was not Obliged to report today to the
local headquarters the result of his In
vestlga ton and none of the details Of
the search therefore were available, as
Fogarty declined to make an extended
statement. He said, however, that
when he reached Brussels he learned
that young Bard had made all ar
engagements to leave the Belgian city In
October, according to his original plans.
He withdrew $1,000 which he had on
deposit in a bank there, but at the
last moment decided to postpone his
departure for one week. a French
girl with whom the young man had
become acquainted in Brussels was
responsible for the postponement, the
detective said.
At this point Fogarty declined to talk
further about the case, except to say
that young Bard was dead and probah-
ly murdered.
