conduct which we should like to have
concerning the man who is to be made
governor of our state.
He is really known to us solely as
young man, very rich by inheritance,
| who has become the owner Of num-
Der of sensational yellow journals; he
has taken in his newspapers the popu-
lar side upon all questions relating to
| labor and corporations and has sus-
tanned it by much violent denunciation
and many falsehoods, and he has been
a persistent seeker for Office on the
strength of liking the popular side; he
has published whatever he thought
would please the working people for
the purpose of getting the labor vote.
How stands Mr.. Hearst's record as

own procurement, through as shameful

his capacity and sincerity in that field.
Representatives are sent to Congress to

He is SO rich that the $4,000 paid
him for that neglected service may
seem of no consequence, but no honest

to take it.
