HEARST IS FOR SOUTHERN
CANDIDATE, SAYS GRAVES
Editor of The New York American Talks Entertainingly of His
Chief’s Position in National Politics—He Foresees Certain
Victory for Democracy in the Impending Campaign.
William Randolph > Hearst is for
Southern Democrat for president, says
Colonel John Temple Graves, editor of
Tho Xeiv York American, who was in
Atlanta for several days. Mr. Hearst
suggests Speaker Champ Clark or
House Leader Oscar Underwood to car
ry Democracy's standard.
As Mr. Hearst's spokesman and rep
resenting In a measure the Influence of
nine great newspapers, Mr. Graves' ex
pression on tho political situation Is of
more than passing Interest. It will be
recalled that Mr. Hearst Is again In fel.
lowshlp with the party and may be ex
pected to have something to say In the
coming counsels of the organization.
Mr, Hear,t’, Fight.
"The enthronement of the people has
been Mr. Hearst’s'one aim for the past
twenty years,” declared Mr. Graves.
"When the party wandered away from
those principles that Mr. Hearst held
to be essential and for which ho had
been fighting for all these years, ho re
fused to bow to tho dictates of the
many and continued the fight outside
tho party. He was a Democrat of pro
test as against a Democrat of accept
ance. Tho principles qf the progressive
Democracy of today, such as direct
nominations, railroad and trust agita
tion, and elections, the Initiative, refer
endum and tho recall, have been Mr.
Hearst’s principles for two decades.
When lie found that hqi could not fight
for them and remain within the party
he went outside and continued tho fight
there. That he has rendered valiant
and effective service In recent great
victories Is evidenced by the multitude
of letters and telegrams from leaders
In Maine, Massachusetts, Connecticut,
Ohio. New Mexico and elsewhere. Gov
ernor Baldwin, of Connecticut, wired
Mr. Hearst that he had been a potential
factor In his election. Likewise came
messages from Maine, Massachusetts
and Ohio. When the fight was on In
New Mexico, Mr. Hearst's Loa Angelos
paper issued a special Spanish edition
and sent tens of thousands of copies to
the Democratic executive committee for
free distribution In the state; also sent
speakers and watchers of election. As
a result he simply presented the state,
which was normally Republican by
5,000 or 6,000 majority, to the Demo
cratic party. Mr. Hearst's return has
been characterized by the most enthu
siastic expressions of service for those
principles to which he holds-dear.”
"But what about tho presidential
nomination?” Mr. Graves was asked.
Chsmp Clark First.
In the estimation of Mr. Hearst.
Hon. Champ Clark, for years leader of
the Democratic minority In congrces
and now majority leader. Is the man.
Mr. Hearst Is of the opinion that the
South is entitled to the honor and that
Mr. Clark Is the moot desirable man for
tho place for two reasons. First, on ac
count of his valuable and faithful serv
ice to tho party, and, second, because of
hjs own peculiar fitness for the place."
With thle Mr. Graves entered Into
an appreciative exposition of what
Mr. Clark’s services had consisted of
and why he wob so well qualified for
the position. He paid tribute to his
masterful and masterly statesman
ship which had characterized all of
his acts In congress. As to Congress
man Underwood, Mr. Graves expressed
himself In like manner. Mr. Under
wood had exhibited In his handling of
mm and measures In Washington those
traits that would make him a splendid
executive In the presidential chair.
As to Governor Wilson.
To Governor Woodrow Wilson, Mr.
Graves said that ha had no objection
save the feeling that he was too new to
be reckoned in connection with the
presidential gift. He said that he had
not been proven, had not been made to
undergo the storm and stress period
and consequently he was In a measure
untried. He urged also that his con
version to radical Democratic , princi
ples was too fresh to Justify a proper
estimate of the political caliber of tho
man, that Ills ‘ Hamiltonian tendencies
were too manifest.
Governor Harmon's achievements
and Integrity were not to be questioned,
he said, but his closeness for years to
corporate Interests might make him Ob'
Jectlonable to many.
8uccess Certain.
A A to the future, Mr, Graves painted
a roseate picture for Democratic suc
cess In tho approaching national elec
tions; Unless the party goes ahead and
does something simply and absolutely
unimaginably foolish, said he, victory
will rest beneath the Democratic ban
ner at the next general election.
In conclusion. Mr. Graves stated that
Mr. Hearst was for a Southern man for
the) Democratic nomination, altho hosts
of his friends and others had suggested
his name In connection with this high
honor. "Mr. Hearst Is deeply apprecla.
tlve of this honor.” said Mr. Graves,
“and if called upon, of course would
carry forward tho banner of a militant
Democracy with every faculty and
power at his command. However, he
believes that the South merits the rec
ognition and Is therefore for any ag
gressive Southern man. Champ Clark
first and Underwood second, for the
nomination. Mr. Hearst Is a friend of
tho South and has always manifested
the keenest Interest In the welfare and
prosperity of this great and growing
section.”

nlty of
New York, Dee. 13.—The condition of
W. E. D. Stokes, tho millionaire hotel
, was greatly improved today fol
lowing an operation In the Hotel An-
sonla yesterday for abscess of the kid
ney. Nevertheless, It was said today
that he will not appear os the chief
witness against Lillian Graham and
Ethel Conrad, the show girls now on
trial for shooting him, as It would be
weeks before ho will bo around again.
Ethel Conrad, according to the story
told by the defense today at the trial
of the show girls, one of the girls who
shot Stokes, refused 35,000 for a “con
fession" made by young Charles M.
Miller, of Platlsburg, at the point of a
revolver held by her.
In thle “confession" Miller tells of
having lured Miss Conrad away from
the Plattsburg home of Strikebreaker
James Farley. In an automobile, dur
ing the summer of 1810, and of how
she compelled him to take her back to
the Farley residence.
During the cross-examination of Mias
Conrad by Assistant District Attorney
Buckner the assistant district attorney
questioned her closely concerning the
confession and then asked her if she
had It. ' ' ...
Lawyers for Miss Conrad and Miss
Lillian Graham, who Is on trial with her
before Justice Marcus In the criminal
branch of the supreme court, sprang to
their feet and satd they would willing
ly produce the "confession."
The "confession” Is written with a
lead pencil. According to the story
told by Miss Conrad, the was In New
York when a woman friend In Platts-
burg Informed her that Charles M. Mill
er, son of a prominent dry goods mer
chant there, was Miking about her.
She says she promptly got on a train
and went to Plattsburg with a pistol.
She found Miller and his brother, L.
Miller, together In the street. Miss
Conrad raid to Charles Miller:
"I have a lettr here which I want to
,h "Wbat U is It?” »he says Charles Miller
asked her. . , . .
Miss Conrad then drew her pistol
nnd told Charles M. Miller he would
have to write out a confession. She
says he did so, clearing her of an at'
Mck on her reputation.
