Malone was as different from his reception
in Watertown as an oil lamp from an arc
light. The Norwood meeting was merely
the Pickering Of a parlor match in a chilly
dark country road. The Malone crowd
was big and strikingly enthusiastic.
Plattsburg gave Mr.. Hearst a reception
that pleased him nearly as well as his meet
ing in Malone. His audiences here were
as big as could be crowded into the theatre
and they made the kin OF noise that a
candidate in supposedly unfriendly ter
ritory likes to hear.
Nobody pretended TO be able to explain
the unmistakabRe difference in the attitude
of the audiences Mr.. Hearst addressed
to-day. It simply existed, Flst as it has
been all over the State where he has gone
stamping. The difference Is interesting
because OF the fact that Mr.. Hearst's
friends expected that he would get a rous-
ing welcome at Watertown and had little
idea that Malone or Plattsburg would get
10 stirred up over his advent.
When he finished his fourth speech OF
the day with an Address to the citizens
of this place tonight Mr.. Hearst was a
very tired man, tagged mentally and
physically. Instead of taking the worri-
some details of this speaking trip on his
hands the managers OF the Hearst cam
paipn at the Gilsey House made a botch
and bungle of the whole itinerary from the
very start, arranging impossible schedules,
failing to insure train connections ana
neglecting to lave special locomotives
ready when they were urgently needed.
In consequence Mr.. Hearst has had to
attend to these tiresome details himself,
beside running the entire campaign from
his private car. Hearst has not been able

Mr.. Hearst spoke at Watertown under
the auspices OF the Jefferson county Demo-
cratic organization. County Chairman

the meeting and he held Hearst in isash

onto freight cars and preempted delivery
wagons and trucks when MI, Hearst
started to talk there was a crowd OF per

Mr.. Hearst talked for about half an hour.

launched out against the corporations and
asked Lincoln Republicans and Jerersonian
Democrats to stand with him in his efforts

PEOPLE. He did not think IL expedient
apparently, to attack Mr.. Hughes per
sonally and evaded direct reference TO ms
opponent. Neither did he Allude to his
newspaper corporations. ClarenoeJ. Shearr
followed Mr.. Hearst.
After the cartail speech Mr.. Hearst got
out on the railroad tracks and shook hands
with a number Of people. His friends have
asked him TO do a little more mixing, to
take every opportunity for hand shaking

Mr.. Hearst was far behind his schedule in

O'Clock when his train got to Norwood In
81. Lawrence county. There was a fair
sized crowd for a small town at the depot
