HEARST BRANDS THEM.

William Randolph Hearst, looked
upon by thousands Of the members
of the so-called Democratic party as
the greatest modern cxpounder Of
Democracy, has taken occasion at a
great mass meeting in Carnegie Hall
in New York to brand the leaders of
modern Democracy as the vilest Of
hypocrites, when they pretend to rep
resent, advocate and praise Jcifcr-
sonian Democracy and the principles
Jefferson promulgated, and in this
connection he roundly calls TO ac-
count the present mayor of New
York and takes him to task for even
assuming to believe in Jeffersonian
principles, after having stolen his re-
election as mayor. That Mr..
Hearst may be plain in meaning to
the people who read and admire him,
and that there may be no misunder-
standing or misinterpretation Of
him, the Telegram quotes him as fol-
lows:
"And a week ago at banquet in
this city Jefferson Day was ceIebrat-
ed by men who could not be in poll
tics according to Jefferson's maxim.
"And these men assembled at Mr..
Belmont's plutocratic club on Fifth
avenue-a club which is sort Of
subway station between Wall Street
and Tammany Hall.
'And to make this memorable &C.
casion notably Democratic, the man
who received the stolen goods at the
last election addressed the men who
stole the goods for him.
"The little Mayor spoke on Jetfer-
son and gave his opinion of that
great statesman.
81 did not go to the club to hear
the little Mayors opinion of Jeffer-
son, but / would 60 far to hear jeff
ereon's opinion of Democratic
Mayor who holds his office by force
and fraud and felony, half Of whose
election associates are occupying
jobs in the City Hall, and the other
half cells in Sing Sing.
F"The little Mayor-bv all odds the
1ittlest Mayor New York has ever
had-praised Jefferson, patronizcd
Jefferson, but did not quote Jeffer-
son.
f'Why not?
because in all of Jefferson's writ
ings there is not one paragraph that
harmonizes with such Democracy.
"The names of great men NAV he
used by recreant parties to blind the
people. but when their words are
quoted the fraud is exposed.
"Here are some reasons why the
little Mayor spoke of Jefferson with
out quoting Jefferson.
Jefferson said referring to
George Clinton:
10 retain the Office when it is
probable the majority was agains,
him is dishonorable.'
"And again:
"a nation ceases to he republican
when the will of the majority ceases
TO be the law
ut is easy to see that the little
Mayor could not have qqquqootqeo
Mayor could not have quoted tbosc
utterances without hurting the feel
Ings OF an audience represented nv
ballot box burglars and financial
Fagins.
Jefferson said:
az love to see honest and honor
able men at the helm. men who viii
not bend their politics to their
purses ~ 'WJE IT

our sense of gratitude and revive our

nations when the American republic
was in its infancy. Permit me to ex-
press the wish and belief that the ties
of friendship so early established be

never be broken"
Professor Smyth's address was
greeted enthusiastically by the as.

filled the great auditorium of the

present were the American Ambas-

of the American colony in Paris, the
President of the French republic, the
members of his cabinet, senators and
deputies, members of the Academy of
France and other leading lights in pol
itics, literature, science and public
life.
At the conclusion of the literary ex-
ercises the chief participants were es-
corted to the site of the statue in the
Rue Franklin where the unwilling
took place. Here President Fallieres
delivered a graceful speech accepting
