people need him now more than
ever before.
This year the Democratic party
will be opposed by the greatest ag-
gregation of money power ever COM
bined. and Conspiring together In
this state to keep the lackeys Of
the predatory corporations in office,
so that they may gather the harvest
partially reaped and further prom
Ised them by the detestable Miller
administration.
1.-THE only hope of success for the
Democratic party is in whole-hearted
and unwavering fidelity to the
peoples interests. That Is, the
Democratic party can win only by
deserving to win; and II can deserve
to win only by keeping faith with
the people. An intent so as to keep
faith will be evidenced by the selec-
ton Of candidates known beyond
question to be relied upon by the
people in their fight against corpora
ton rule.
"It would kill any chance OF Demo
cratic success II the party should
nominate a dark horse" compro-
mise. or straddle candidate. or a
sham Democrat who would only con-
tinue the iniquities Of the Miller ad-
ministration under another party
name.
mo man in this State Is better
known or better qualified for the
office of governor than Mr.. Hearst.
No man in this State Is so feared
by public plunderers, because Mr..
Hearst always has been beyond their
control or reach, and always has been
their most powerful, relentless and
effective foe.
mo person has done so much for
the cause of honest popular govern.
ment in this State as Mr.. Hearst has
done. This Is common knowledge.
Whoever would assert that the peo-
pie Of this State are unappreciative
of Mr.. Hearst's lifelong public bene.
factions would display only his own
stupidity or sinister motive in thus
inrputing to our people an ingrati.
tude unthinkable.
mo more convincing illustration OF
the sentiment among the leaders and
the rank and file OF the New York
city democracy, as well as among
that balance of power the great
independent silent vote, could he
had than last year when Mayor Hy-
Ian was elected. The public utility
corporations then did absolutely
everything In their power to defeat
Mayor Hylan-SIMPLY BECAUSE
HE WAS A FRIEND OF MR..
HEARST AND HAD BEEN A
FAITHFUL SERVANT OF THE
PEOPLE AND HAD BEEN STEAD.
FAST AND INCORRUPTIBLE IN
THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE,
PRINCIPLES AND POLICIES FOR
WHICH MR.. HEARST ALWAYS
HAS STOOD.
Derided Mayor Hylan.
"In that campaign. the public
plunderers made an issue Of their
charge that Mayor Hylan was a
Hearst man They derived and
slurred Mayor Hylan as needing only
his Masters voice
"How did the electorate OF New
York city answer that issue and
derision? AS a Hearst man, Mayor
Hylan was honored with a majority
greater than any mayor OF New
York has received.
mfr. Hearst being the pre-eminent
champion Of the people in the Is.
sues which the Democratic party-it
Il deserves TO live--must fight to \
finish in behalf Of the people, HIS
NOMINATION WILL BE CoNCLU.
SIVE PROOF OF THE DsEMO.
CRATIC PARTY'S SINCERITY. A
FAILURE TO NOMINATE HIM
WOULD INVITE SERIOUS
DOUBT OF THE PARTY's SIN.
