Jerome's Hot Shot.

District Attorney Jerome declares 1t was no surprise to him to find Mur- phy practically declaring for Hearst, and among other things he says:
 Birds of feather flock together, and when a person, intellectually ster- ile, socially vulgar and morally ob- tuse,. insults the decent people of the state. irrespective of party, by seek ing the nomination of a political party by advancing dollars and not ideas, and by methods akin to those of the blackmailer, no thinking man could doubt where Murphy would be found. should fear l had lost all my ideals if I found men of this type supporting me, except under ab- solute compulsion.
 If ever come to have any infiu- ence in the democratic party, it will be used to drive out of 1t base bosses of this type. Both the democratic and republican parties have long enough been disgraced and dOmin- ated by men of this type, controlling party organization. Party organiza- ton was created originally to render effective the will of the people.
 "The servant has become the mas ter and the executive machinery, controlled by small groups of selfish and usually corrupt men, has been to deprive the people of the parties of their political freedom. The fight is not to destroy parties. Parties are essential to the proper working of our political institutions.
 "The fight is to free the parties from just such men as Murphy, to deprive them of their control of the executive machinery. to restore 1t to the discharge of the functions for which 1t was created. viz: The eff fective expression of the will of the people who compose the party. When this is done we shall have leaders and not bosses. We shall then have con- ventions of real delegates, seeking to determine whom the people want placed in nomination. We shall have candidates and public officers in whose choice the peoples voice has been potent and who will feel that their responsibility is to the peo- pie and not to some political boss who created them"
 District Attorney Jerome, after reading over the statement to the newspaper men, said:
 "I think that will hold you boys for a while"

A Word from Hearst.

New York. Aug 22.-William Ran dolph Hearst ast night gave out a statement in which he said:
 ''I repeat that I am absolutely and unalterably opposed to the Murphys and the McCarrens, and also to the Sullivans and the McClellans and the kind of politics that they all repre- sent I am opposed to boss rule in politics.
 '.I am opposed to corporation con- trol of parties through machines. and the fact that boss or a machine de- clares for me does not alter my atti- tude in any Harticular. am also opposed to the Ryans and Belmonts and their Jeromes in politics; to the corrupt use of wealth to debauch the ballot and to the purchase of puppets in ofice.
 T am opposed to those paid pup pets in office who serve their corpor- ation masters slavishly and shame lessly through their whole term of office. and only develop semi-sense of decency and a pretended regard for the people when an action is pending"

at least four zines more for freight from

not entirely to blame for this outrageous
