Mr.. Hearst's Announcement.

Mr.. Hearst is not a candidate for the
presidency. There are no candidates for
the presidency. y number Of eminent men
are mentioned for the presidency but
that is different matter. How can they
restrain their friends if the latter, carried
away by the enthusiasm of the moment
choose 10 point out their merits and the
country's needs? Mr.. Hearst enrolls HIM
self in distinguished company.
/ But there is Independence League. and
its purposes are patriotic. This Mr.. Hearst
confesses. Although he does not go into
particulars, we led to infer that the
league is in politics now and will be in
politics next year. Then it must have a
candidate and If terms are not made with
either the republicans or the democrats, a
nominee of Its own would appear to be in
order.
In the case of the democracy the argu-
ment runs that the party Is still domi-
mated by Mr. Bryan he should be its candi-
date aga Who SO well qualified to ex-
pound Organism Mr.. Bryan himself?
His disciples may be earnest enough, but
which of them is as able as he? Organism
without its author would be as the play of
Hamlet without the melancholy young
Dane.
Yates of a third term ask a similar Ques-
ton. If the Rooseveltian policies are to be
the issue. who so prepared to represent
them as Mr.. Roosevelt himself? Why
take lieutenant when the chief is avail
able? Secretary Taft is a good man. Mr.
Fairbanks ranks with the best. Mr.. Can
non is leader of great worth and Gov
Hughes has won much praise. All are
approved party leaders. But Mr.. Roose-
welt, as the author of the policies bearing
his name, would. MS admirers contend, poll
more votes than any other republican in
the country.
Now if we apply this argument to Mr.
Hearst what do we find? The indie
pendenCe League is the work of his hands
and its members are the sheep of his
pasture. If the league is in politics and
expected to influence next years result
who so fit to lead 1t as Mr. Hearst him
self? Why should a lieutenant be chosen
as the candidate when the chief is at hand?
Hearst is the league; the league is Hearst
II is the simplest problem in our politics.
Let US walt. therefore, and not count Mr.
Hearst out at this stage OF the game
simply because, as he sees matters now
office, the presidency itself, has no allure
ments for him.

Murphy Politics.

From the New York Times.
Now that the primaries have left MIR.
Murphy in almost complete and practically
undisputed control of the machinery of the
democratic organization in Manhattan. he
will doubtless proceed to carry out his plans
with reference to the judiciary. He has
made 20 secret of his opinion that the
judicial nominations should be used in a
deal with the Hearst wing of the opposition
to the republicans, and his course in regard
to those nominations, whether state or 10.
cal will be guided by his view of the need
or the advantage of such a coalition. 1t is
not easy to imagine any form of greedy and
corrupt political bargaining that would be
worse for the pubic interests or more dis
graceful to those taking part in it.

The Only Solace.

Conditions have become so strange
That l am puzzled sore;
Each day the prices higher range
When I call at the store.
The CRATER, too, his face has set.
'Gainst all that wise men teach;
The only comfort that l get
Is listening to a speech.
When hard luck wanders unrestrained
Through erstwhile blossoming ways
One likes to hear it all explained
In sympathetic phrase.
My Indignation grows so great
Toward Mammon's graspng reach;
That some times ! can scarcely wait
To hear another speech.
