HEARST REPLIES To BAILEY
Says the Texas Senator is Wearing
Tamely and Humbly the Scarlet
Livery Of the Corporations.

Washington. D. c., June 3O-William
Randolph Hearst tonight telegraphed
the following from San Francisco in
answer to the speech made by Senator
Bailey in the senate Thursday.
Senator Bailey said little of i'm
pOrtance and consequently there is
little to be said in reply.
Il cannot honestly claim credit for
the able articles in the Cosmopolitan
magazine, although [ would be glad
to do SO.
''Their excellence IS due to Mr..
Phillips and their value can be esti-
mated by the aroused semi-sense of de-
cency in some senators and shame in
others.
LAS for Senator Bailey personally he
j began his career in Washington by
expressing unwillingness to wear even
the conventional dress suit. He ended
by wearing tamely and humbly the
scarlet livery of the corporations. But
while Senator Bailey is willing tC
wear the trust livery, and answer the
! Rockefellr bell, as readily as any other
! Standard Oil backer, he does not like
| to have attention called to his badge
; Of servitude and at present he is doing
! his best to hide and shield himself be-
| hind the grave Of the dead Senator
| German,
The whole matter has no interest,"
! for me, however, except in so lar az
! it illustrates that growing evil II

b! porations. (Signed)
