The Democrats of New York have
captured the head center of the Doodle

Willie Hearst has been nominated by
the Democrats for the Governorship of
New York by vote of 800 out of $50.
If Willie is the best sample of man for
Governor New York can offer.sthe rest
of he nation should be a little
ashamed of the Empire state.-Los
Banos Enterprise.
Both of the Rochester IN. Y) Demo
cratic newspapers repudiate Hearst. and
refuse to support his nomination for
Governor. You cannot fool all of the
people all of the time" and the free
press of this country is not deceived as
to the pretensions and dangerous hum
buggery of William r. Hearst.-Los
Angeles Herald.
Bourke Cochran in his speech at
Albany advocating the nomination of
Hearst said he did not like the man,
but that it was a choice between rot
tenness and riot, and he chose riot for
the reason that rottenness cannot be
cured. If he imagines for moment
that Hearst can be cured he is griev-
ously deluded. 1t will be William Riot
Hearst to the end.-Tulare Register.
New York Democrats have nominated
Hearst for Governor. They are well
come to him. California Democrats,
after years. of forbearance of his an
archistic agitation and yellow newspa-
And Hearst will not be elected Govern
or of New York. There are too many
intelligent people in that State to per-
nit of such calamity as Hearst's cleo
tion.-Los Angeles Herald.
Hearst is nominated for Governor in
New York, and his opponent on the
Republican ticket is Charles Evan
Hughes. We do not know Mr.. Hughes.
but we do know Mr.. Hearst-by repu-

man and are prone to eschew every
thing that savors of chance to part
with our hard-earned pelf, yet we are
wagering that Willie is badly beaten
man.-Richmond Leader
The Democratic party in New York
is completely demoralized The deadly
virus A4earst has been instilled into
the vitals of the party and it is so
shattered and broken that it presents
little chance for success. The Inde-
pendent League is built on the unstable
foundation of William r. Hearst, and
when it has wrought its purpose of
destroying the Democratic party, will
fall by the very weight of its own cor
ruption.-Calavera Prospect
William Randolph Hearst has secured
the Democratic nomination for Gov
ernor of the Empire State His triumph
thus far seems to be complete. Wheth-
er he can win on a popular vote is am
other question. 1t is sure that about
seven out of every ten newspapers in
the State will fight him. There are
varying reports as to how the victory
was attaineds but it would seem to be
the case that questionable methods
were used on both sides. The conduct
of Charles Murphy, leader of Tammany
Hall, is always subject to question. His
connection with disgraceful transac-

In what way does Mr.. Bryan suppose
that Mr.. Hearst is Democrat? What
Single point of contact can he find be-
