The reason why Mr. Hearst has de
veloped a strength so remarkable and
so sustained ln the ranks of this great
party Is because of the fact that be,
above all the men now active in Jour
nalism or In politics, has been con
sistently and vigorously true to these
traditions aud to these Idekls.

syndicates and the selflsh propositions
of corporations.
It Is the force of this record, which
has had no change or variation, that
has endeared the editor of the seven
Democratic newspnpers to the hearts
and fixed him In the confidence of the
people of Jills country.
More than this, the strength of the
Hearst movement Is In the magnetic
and rallying force of definiteness
against uncertainty. Ho came to the
front in a period of uncertainty, de
moralization and general Democratic
depression. Willie other leaders, how-,
ever loyal and however interested, were
dangling their plumes and holding their
tongues ln uncertainty and discourage
ment, the young and vital editor of
■even Democratic newspapers struck
boldly out in behalf of tho traditional
principles of hls party. Without n
note of hesitation or uncertainty he
rallied the fatntlug spirits of a dis
couraged Democracy and Inspired the
rank and file of hls party with' new'
faith and new hope ln the .ultimate tri-
urnpn of principles which had found a
champion bold, clear, definite and elo
quent. *
It Is the old, old story—whenever u
mass Is demoralized the one clear and
definite spirit in It finds the opportunity
ln seizing the reins of authority in the
sublime mastery of hls own purpose
and of-hls own clearness and rallies
the multitude about the one man who
sees things clearly and dares to do
them.
: Ho Factional Candidate. . >r
Mr. Hearst has a definite strength ln
almost every state In,the Union and
stronger than that of any Individual
candidate suggested by any faction of
the Democratic party, and ln most of
the states of the Union stronger than
the forces of all other candidates com
bined.
It Is no reflection on the merits,-capac
ity or the service of these old and hon
ored names ln Democratic annals that
this young and vital figure of Journal
ism and politics should have gone to
fast and so far Jo the front. They are
doubtless as true and as loyal and as
capable as he, hut he has had the cour
