Not only in matter but in manner
or style, comparison of the two
productions rebounds 10 Mr..
Hearst's credit. His letter is not
only better thought out, but it is
better expressed, and in all respects
is incomparably superior to his
competitors speech. Mr.. Hearst
is a much ADLER man than he is
given credit for, and we repeat
now what we said few days ago,
the country must take him serious
ly.-Petersburg Index-Appeal.
Il am in favor, therefore, fanny
measure which seems to me to be
for the greatest good of the great
est number, and am opposed to
any measure which appears to me
to interfere with the equal rights of
all and to extend special privileges
to few. WIN. X. Hearst.
Sure, that plank in the Hearst
platform is good enough for any
one to stand on Southampton
Democrat.
Hearst has now received the
Democratic nomination, and we
now predict that he will be elected
by so large a majority that people
will laugh.-Hanover Herald.
The fact that he is not favorite
with some Democrats and news
papers, not only in New York. but
in this State, is good reason why
he should have the support of the
people, their disapprOval often
times being a sure sign that they
are for the corporations and that
the candidate they oppose is with
the people and against the en-
croachments of the corporations
upon their rights. Peninsula En-
terprise.
Mr.. W. r. Hearst, Democratic
candidate for Governor of New
York, had an audience a few
nights ago of $4,000 people, with
$4,000 outside who could not find
seats. The papers say the crowd
went wild over him. This don't
look like Hughes, his opponent, is
winning many of the boilers, but
it is hard to tell the outcome in
New York politics. The leaders
have powerful persuasive tactics,
and can almost change the tide in
East Acknowledgements Tribune.
Hearst is growing with the New
York public every day. His
speeches show that he is not the
nonentity that his enemies would
have us suppose. He may be a
demagogue, but he is a shrewd
one and not an ignorant one. His
break with the corrupt Democracy
of Brooklyn and with Tammany
Hall would indicate that he has at
least some regard for appearances,
and the move is wise Erred

The very papers that are now
most active in their campaign
against Hearst, and for whom they
have no terms but those of con-
tempt and hatred, and whom .ney
abuse with a vocabulary that is
almost Billingsgate, will be found
tumbling over themselves to do him
honor should he be elected Gov
ernor of New York.-Frec ericks-
burg Journal.
They might as well put OH their
tumbling suits and get ready for
business, for all the Indications are
that he will be elected Governor
of New York, in spite of the news
papers and self-styled Democratic
leaders, some of whom failed to
get the nomination which Mr..
Hearst won so overwhelmingly
Petersburg Index-Appeal.
! AS between Mr.. Hearst and Mr..
Bryan, we expect to see the con
sentative" element of the party
take up Mr.. Hearst. Mr.. Bryan
is man of positive characteristics.
Were he President, there would
be something doing all the time,
the same as it is with Mr.. Roose-
welt. With Mr.. Hearst in office,
there is no definite policy marked
out.
The country awaits the develop
ment of Mr.. Hearst with good
deal of interest. - Alexandria
