Saving Democracy From Hearst ?

1t was detection of upstate Demo-
cratic votes rather than Republican
strength which defeated William Ran
in 1906. Every other Democrat on the
state ticket was elected. The import of
the gathering of upstate Democrats at
Syracuse must be considered with that
fact in mind. Mr.. Hearst was not men
toned in the resolutions adopted, but for
practical purposes the conference was
an endeavor to ascertain the strength Of
anti-Hearst sentiment outside of New
York City and to consolidate it. Up
state never has liked Hearst. Apparent
ly the fact that he has sacrificed the life
of his German newspaper to his present
policies and hopes has created no new
love for him in the rural counties.
Two assets the Hearst boom has
Mayor Hylsn and "Fingy" Corners, of
Buffalo, who aided the late Tom Grady
in "the dirtiest days work of my life"
Corners can't control "the organization"
in Erie County. What Mayor Hylan
can do here is doubtful, to say the least.
Mr.. Murphy sits silent. He may remain
passive and have Hearst thrust on him
as Hylan was last fall, but Murphy
moves in mysterious way, and it is to
be noted that many Of those in the Syra-
cuse conference have worked hand-in-
glove with him in recent years.
However the political bosses line up,
the upstate antagonists of the proprie-
tor and publisher of the late "Deutsches
journal will have to take more radical
measures than the conference produced
II Democracy is to be saved from Hearst.
There had been much talk about adopt-
ing resolutions protesting against any
but 100 per cent American" for Gov
ernor. With those adopted Mr.. Hearst
himself could find no fault. Can it be
that the conferrees are too proud to
fight?

BASE HOSPITAL ~" NOTES.

The Medical Supply Training School,
which has been in session for some
weeks past. but has been discontinued
and is now awaiting orders for de-
mobilization, has among its number

gagged for a, number of years in city
associa ton work of the Y. NJ. G. A. In

capacity of an Army secretary at
Camp Wadsworth until he was called
to the colors.
Sergt. Johnson is serio usly consider

following his discharge, having de-
sire to go to Italy. where there is
big demand for secretaries.
Our best wishes, Sergf. Johnson, go
with you in your new field, where we
know you can do great work.
A. very interesting lecture was de-
livered by Capt. Edwin S. Cook Of the
base hospital staff Monday evening
last in the base hospital "Y."
The lecture was doubly appreciated,
due to the fact that 1t is rumored that
Capt. Cook will very shortly lay aside
his government duties to return to
civil life. Capt Cook is very popular
among the hospital STAFF, as we'll as
among the men whom he serves, and
it was with regret that the mon of
this area learned of his probable de-
parture.
On Saturday afternoon last the
Base Hospital Detachment met i'm IL
track and field meet on the grounds
west of barracks No. u. Keen rivalry
was shown by the boys participating,
especially as Sergt. Rose and Private
McDonogh spent considerable time in
preparing the events.
