The possibility OF democratic cam
paien being launched with the cry Of
Harmon, Hearst aud harmony" is being
discussed here today following the Jefer-
son Day banquet which developed a
number of surprises. Throughout the
dinner there was predominant spirit of
"gettIng together" and all the speeches
reflect high hopes of democratic victory.
The climax came in the speech of John
Temple Graves, former candidate for
vice president on the independence
league ticket, who announced that the
Hearst party was ready to return to the
ranks Of the democratic party. His an
nouncement was received with an out
burst of applause that indicated that in
dependence leaguers were welcome so
far as those present at the dim II were
concerned.
When John Temple Graves, chic
editor of the Hearst newspapers told the
democrats of the District of Columbia at
their Jeffersonian Banquet last nj ht that
the independence League was ready and
willing to unite with the democracy in
the coming campaign, he spoke with
authority. Prior to his appearance at
the banquet he had consulted with his
friends in New York, including MIR.
Hearst as to the propriety of his making
an address. When he arose to speak he
had In his pocket a telegram from Hearst
himself, the head of the Independence
League approving the suggestion that he
should tell the local democrats of the
willingness of the league to go upright
with them provided that they should
follow the principles already laid down
by their leaders in Congress-,
