 How stands his record as legtsla- tor? He had opportunity to prove his capacity and sincerity in that field. Representatives are sent to Congress 10 attend to the business of the ceun- try. MT. Hearst was sent 10 Congress to do that; he had an opportunity then to show how much sincerity there was in all. the talk of his newspapers about reforms and better government.

 What did he do? Why. he did notlt1, ing; during the three years that 2 has been in Congress that body " been in session 4s7 days; there 1A. been 1855 recorded votes by yes 'd nay; he was present and voU a- but twenty three and present wS aout voting at two; his voice was heard fn that Congress in those years but onc+' and that for ten minutes in a personal explanation regarding an article pup lished in Tho New York American; ha did not even contribute . motion to ad journ tho business of Congress.

 Tt is seldom indeed that . man SO young whose public career mas been brief. so small . portion or whose nIe Is known at all to the public has fur nished such convincing prooIs or ms unfitness for office.
 "The public knows the character or MT.

 ..aut the worst of MT. Hearst said MT. Root, "is that with his great waaIth. with hls great newspapers, with his army of paid agents. for his own selfish puprses. he has been. day nv day. and year by year. sowing the seeds of dissension and strife and ha- fred throughout our land: he would array labor against capital and capital against labor; poverty against weath and wealth against poverty; with oit.er and vindictive feeling; he would ue- stroy the great mass of our people. that kindly and friendly spirit. that Consideration for the interests ana rishts of others, that brotherhood or citizenship which arc essential to the neaceful conduct of free popular gov. ernment: he would destroy that respect for law. that love of order. that conn dence in our free institutions which are the basis at once of true freeoom hh" true Justice.

What public servant. honored by the peoples trust, mas ne moi assailed with vile and vulgar ep. theta? what branch of our Tree Sor ernment has he not taught ms .es. to helieye d corrupt agency or opp'es' sion?" Mr. Root .oiS "Oniv once has this method oi innara,arv abuse wrought out us nat ...sI nonseoueuce-.in the murder oi pres,dent Mckinley.

 Quotes Hearst Newspaper.
 sMcKinley condones the treacherous ,,,,,rda,. of our sailors at Havana and tsIts of his confidence in the honor oi Spain. He plays the coward ana sniv- ers white-faced at the footfail or an war. He makes an inte1- national cur of his country-he IS an ahiect . weak. futile, incompetent. pol troon.'
 Mckinley, barring one girtny Princeton person, who came to be no more or less than a living, breathinG crime and brooches. Is therefore the most despised and hated creature in the Hemisphere; his name Is booted; his figure Is burning in emgy.
 "rhe bullet that pierced Goebers

 Cannot be found in all the West; Good reason, 1t is speeding here To stretch Mckinley on his bier
 And this in April 1901:
 "Tnstitutions, like men. will last un- til they die; and if bad institutions and bad men can be got rid Of only by killing. then the killing must be done
 "What wonder that the weak and ex- citable brain of Czolgosz answered to such impulses as these." said the speaker. He never knew Mckinley; he had no real or fancied wrongs Of his own to avenge agaest Mckinley or McKinley's government he was an swering to the lesson he had learned, that 1t was a service to the interest of mankind to rid the earth of mon- ster, and the foremost of the teachers of these lessons to him and his was and is William Randolph Hearst and his yellow journals.
 Is there nc one left who loved Me Kinley? Are there no workingmcn m New York who cannot see with satis- faction honors heaped upon the man who is not guiltless of Mckinley death? The same kind of teaching is and day by day by the Hearst journals It's legitimate consequence, if contin- ued, must be other weak dupes play ing the role of Czolgosz; other Me Kinleys stretched upon the bier; dis cord and bloody strife in place of the reign of peace and order throughout our fair land. It is not the spirit of Washington and of Lincoln; it Is the spirit of malice for all and charity to- wards none; 1t Is the spirit of anarchy of communism, of kishincf and oi Bialystock
 MT Root urged his auditors to re- turn a majority of Republicans to the House of Representatives to work with President Roosevelt In the next Cnogress.
 Increase of Corporate Greed.
 '.Thc evils which have come with the enormous increase in corporate wcaltl, in recent years are real and serious . said he. There have been many out rageous practices which ought to pe stopped and many wrongdoers whh ought to be punished. That should be done not by lynch law, but by tho intelligent and wise action which be fits a self governing people.
