Hearst VIII eco 1t AIOHe,' rith
National ambitions.

Tentatively this is the Hearst Independence
League political programme for the next six
months;
A state convention to be held in Utica, SYRIA
cuse or Rochester on the Fourth of July.
The league will go it alone in the fall cam
paign and nominate Representative Hearst for
Governor.
Half the candidates on the state ticket with
him will be Republicans. the idea being to split
the Republican vote
A great deal of money and labor will be ex-
pended in an effort to not worse than second
in the race. If the Hearst men can poll more
votes than are poued for the regular Democratic
candidates. they hold that the Hearst people will
take the place of the Democratic organization
and that Hearst men will take the place OF
Democratic machine men in all bipartisan cleo
tion boards in all the election districts of the
state.
The Hearst men will not take part in the pri-
maries next fall
Te the result of third ticket contest in this
state is satisfactory to Mr.. Hearst he will not
try to capture the regular Democratic nonina-
ton at the next national convention. but viii
head a national third party movement.
A full ticket will be named in this city next
fall This will include candidates for Supreme
Court justices, for Congress, Senate and As
sembly.
One Of Mr.. Hearsts leutenants. after talk
yesterday with his chief made this statement;
Everything indicates that a political revolu-
ton is imminent. COckrans speech in Tam
many Hall last night is a declaration against the
nomination or indorsement OF Hearst oy lhe
regulars. Probably Jerome or Cochran will be
the candidate. Hearst will not accept any sd-
vanCes from Tammany or from McCarren. II he
should he would drive away thousands or Re
alone and viii nominate a fuU ticket The new
declaration Of independence will be made on
the Fourth of July.
Hearst polled 225.OOO votes in this city last
fall, and he Is just strong up the State as he
is here We don't expect to beat the Republ-
cans but do expect TO come in second in the
race, and that will mean the breaking up of the
Democratic machine Hearst will get the pieces.
What La Toilette did in Wisconsin he will do in
New York.
We don't plan for anything beyond the state
campaign If we make good this fall there will
be need for Hearst TO try to get the regular
Democratic Presidential nomination. He will
go it alone again, and trust TO luck TO pulling
through winner IN the big 1908 race.
Charles F. Murphy was at Tammany Hall
yesterday, and talked with several of the dis
trict leaders about the Cochran speech He
would not comment on the speech. When asked
if the demonstration meant that Tammany would
oppose Hearst, he said;
Il have no knowledge of any candidate. Isn't
it a little early YETI"
Borough President Coler had only scorn for the
Cochran presentation.
Cochran always reminds me Of the pea in the
she'll at the county fair" said Mr.. Coler No
man can tell any time what COckrans opin-
ions are any subject but il is safe to say that
Cochran will continue to look at the political
situation from the Wall Street point OF view.
Cochran will soon be brought TO realize that this
is a new era in politics. and that thinking people
have use for plaUtudes or politicians
