NEW YORK, Sept, 13.—Amid scenes
of the wildest enthusiasm William R.
Hearst was chosen to bead a full state
ticket at the closing session of the
state convention of the Independence

placed in nomination for governor the
delegates broke loose, and it was many
minutes before the cheering and ex-
citement lu any way abated.
The session begun with a tremendous

Mr. Shearn announced the ticket for
state candidates recommended: by the
committee,
The name of Mr. Hearst instantly
precipitated a demonstration exceed-
lug in deafening qualities all that had
gute before since the convention be
gan. The spontaneous character of the
enthusiasm could uot be mistaken, and
the uproar lasted eleven minates. Ev.
ery other namie was accorded a scarce
Iy less cordial welcome. The ticket:
For governor, Willlam Randolph
Hearst of New York
For leuteunnt governor, Lewls Stuy-
vesant Chauler of Dutchess.
For secretary of state, John 8. Wha-
Jen of Monroe.

of Jefferson.
For comptroller, Dr. C. H.W. Auel
of Erle.
For state engineer and surveyor,
Frank Getman of Tompkins.
For attorney geberal John Ford of
New York.
A committee was appointed to invite
Mr. Hearst to the platform, Mr.
Hearst said:
“1 will reply to the nomination with
which you have honored me In a formal
letter. 1 will only say a Urief word
now to congratulate this convention on
its splendid work. 1 belleve that the
American government should be placed
directly in the bands of the American
people. This convention is a first step
and a long step toward that end.
“I am honored to have been nominat-
ed by this convention. I am proud to
run on this platform. [ am devoted
beart and soul to the principles ex-
pressed in every line of it
“l have sald that my programme Is
pot socialism or radicalism or extreme
of any kind. It Is simply American-
ism. If this platform Is not American-
ism then common honesty is no Jonger
8 measure of American morals. If
this platform is not Americanism then
& free ballot and a fair count Is no
longer the basis of our American gov-
ernment. If this platform Is not Amer-
icanism then independence, equality
and opportunity have ceased to be
American ideals and Jefferson's teach-
ings have been forgotten and Lincoln's
labor was in vain. ‘
“We promise to sweep from the pab-
lic payroll the servants of private in-
terests. We promise nominations that
are not bossed and elections that are
not bought We promise considera-
tion and representation for the produc
Ing masses.
“We promise to abolish class distine-
tion and class legislation and to re
store a government for the greatest
good of the greatest number. We ask
la return the honorable support of all
honest men. If that is a ‘deal’ it Iga
square deal. I congratulate this com-
vention on giving the people the first
square deal they have had In years.
“I bave said that I am an optimist
and that I belleve that the American
people, under the guidance of the Al
mighty, will solve all their problems
for their own benefit and for the bene
fit of all humanity.
“I am more hopeful tonight than ever
before. I believe we have begun well
our great work and that the solution of
all our difficulties lies within the able
minds and loyal hearts of typical
American citizens like yourselves.”
With the nominating of a full ticket
the convention adjourned, and the
1,600 delegates and thelr alternates
will return to their homes In all parts
of the state.

throughout all the sessions. In the
assemblage one of the most remarkable

BRYAN IN KENTUCKY
Nebraskan at Louisville on
Southern Tour.
WATTERSON HAIL HIN CHIEFTAIN
“Our Jury Is the Nation, Our Proof
Hepubliran Records, Our Witness
the President, Our Attorney
Mr. Bryan."
LOUISVILLE, Ky., Sept 13 — Enter
ing the southland for the first time in
two years, Willlaw J. Brynn was wel-
comed here with spontancous gladness
He seized the occasion to read a state
ment in explanation of Lis New York
speech on government ownership of
railroads.
Bryan's arrival In the city provoked
a great outburst of acclamation from
thousands of marchers and other thou
sands In the streets. His reception at
the armory, where he addressed 12,000
persons, was wildly enthusiastic.
MASS meeting at the armory
constituted Kentucky's greeting on be-
balf of the south, and it was a repre-
sentative southern gathering, graced
by leading Keutucky Democrats, a
number of prominent Democrats from
other southern states and citizens from
Kentucky and Indians. Mr. Bryan
was welcomed to Kentucky by his
whilom oppouent, Henry W atterson,
who pres ded at last night's uleeting
The other speakers preceding Mr. Bry-
an were Senator Carmack of Tenues-
see, representing the south, and Sena-
tor W. J. Stoue of Missouri, who intro
duced the guest of honor.
When Mr. Bryan entered the hall on
the arm of Mr. Watterson there was a
demonstration that lasted ten minutes,
thousands of tags waving with the
surges of cheers that swept over the
throug. As soon as the nolse subsided
Mr. Watterson began his address of
welcome,
Watterscn pointed to Mr. Bryan and
sald: “Here he is. God bless him and
give him wisdom.” The audience yelled
for five minutes.
Mr. Watterson said io part as fol
lows:
“Thete Is but one paramount issue
for the next presidential battle, and
that is the rescue of the government
from hands that have misused and de
bauched it and its restoration to the
custody of the plain but sovereign peo-
ple.
“The parties to it are upon the one
band a standing army of tralged poll-
ticians held together not alone by the
cohesive power of the public patron-
age, but by a community of Interest as
unyielding as it is unthioking, richly
caparisoned in all the panoply of suc
cessful war, and on the other hand the
mass and body of those who hew the
wood and draw the water and pay the
taxes, undrilled, unskilled and widely
separated, often groping in the dark.
sometimes misdirected by divided
counsels, always lacking the resources
by which results dre reached and dan-
gers turned, but never yet united ex-
cept to conquer.
“It Is veteran troops against raw mi-
lita, an unequal though not a bootless
array, as many a well fought tield In
days of old bear wituess. Give us but
half the discipline of the regulars and
a tithe of their equipment, and we
shall drive them before us across the
barricades of criminal wealth though
led by Theodore Roosevelt himself.
“I recoguize as our chleftaln in this
approaching conflict the Hou. William
Jennings Bryan of Nebraska.
“It costs me no sacrifice either of
personal preference or pride of opluion
to make this declaration. Mr, Bryan
and I have not always agreed as to
the means; we have never disagreed
as to the end. The appeal to the moral
nature of the people, which he has
made with se much eloquence and
power, I was making when he was a
boy. He grew to manhood under my
teaching. If at times I have raised the
warning finger of the schoolmaster,
even threatened the rod. he was big
enough and old enough and good look-
ing enough to stand it and to survive
it and bas thrived lu spite of It, may-
be by reason of it, and In any event
bas quite outgrown It.
“I, too, have lived and learned apace,
and oue of the things I bave learned
bas been to look more to the objective
point and less to nonessentials; In mat-
ters of difference to agree to disagree
with my comrades and friends: on
great occasious and in great affairs to
send all mivor differences to the rear

Benator W. J. Stone of Missour! in-
troduced Mr. Bryan. The demoustra-
tion that greeted Mr. Bryan on bis en
trance to the hall was renewed as the
Nebraskan rose tu speak. Following
his response to the welcome a great
hush fell on the crowd when Mr Bry-
a0 anuounced that Le would “read a
statement on a topic which had been
gencrally discussed since he had touch-
el on it doring his speech at New
York” He then read hls statement,
which In part follows:
“lu my speech at the New York re-

ways and thought that I Lad express

could not be misconstrued even by
those who desired to misconstrue it
“After quoting from the Democratic
platform of 1900 that ‘a private mo-
wopoly Is indefensible and Intolerable’
and after laying it down as a principle
that public ownership should begin
where competition ends and that the
people should have the benefit of any
monopoly that might be found neces

conclusion ‘that railroads partake so
much of the nature of a monopoly that
they must ultiwately become public
property.’
