NEW YORK. April H.-Democratio socle
tin and club In all part of Greater Nea
Tork tonight celebrated Jefferson Day. Th
ttemocratio club held JU annual : banquet at
the Waldorf-Astoria the ' Woman' Demo
cratlo club of the city met at the Hoffman
house the Independence League bad 'a It.
'guesta W. R. Hearst and. Attorney General
William Jackson. The principal speaker at
the Democratic club's banquet .waa Senator
Ilayner. of Maryland. He responded to th
toast -'What Should. Be the Prober Policy
of the Democratic Party and What -la True
Democracy?" ' . ' -' 4...
. Former Supreme Court Justice O'Brien pre-
sided. There wa aomti discussion . at the
dinner over the fict that W.' J. Bryan waa
not present nor had he sent regrets. It was
paid by several that the dinner committee
bad decided to Invite Mr. Bryan but bad ap-
pointed a subcommittee to attend to -the In-
vltations. This committee. It waa said had
not forwarded an Invitation. - There are two
known parties . In- th club one favoring Mr
Bryan and the other opposing him.
The Independence League dinner drew 42S
guests. John Temple Graves of Atlanta was
one of the guests.. Mr. Hearst devoted most
of his address to the Independence League.
He said in part: .
- " ' ' HEARSTTsPfcECH.
"Neither one of the old pur ties stands to-
day for any particular principle. ' There are
trust democrats nd-anti-trnst democrats;
there are trust republicans and anti-trust re-
publicans; there are high tariff republicans
and tariff reform republicans and there are
. democrats scattered all along .the ;way 'from
protection 'to free trade. In fact there are
In both parties those who profit by class
dlstlnnllnn Ami anftnlul nrlvllovn a'andl
- .alwlaJS
iiuriunuies tor an. .ronuuai patties today
are not fought on the real Issues of today.
.. and. the8elssueawlU never .he. decided jintlli
. some party 1 termed that wilt stand boldly
for definite principles; that. " will .collect
within Its ranks all those committed to thqse-
principles and that will rise or ..fall' accord-
ing to the verdict of the people on those
principles. The motto at the democratic
party Is anything to get In. The motto of
the republican party is anything to. stay In.
"Take tho two principles now conspicu-
ously before the country thej principle of
control of public utilities andjtue principle
. . of public ownership of public utilities. Both
are good both are practicable but both are
dependent upon Vie Honesty and efficiency of
the administration that operates them. It
has been proven possible for corrupt or In-
competent men to so mismanage the postal
'..service of this country as to almost dls-
credit the whole system of public owner-
Hhlp. The poBtoffice presents a deficit of
HuOO000 a year when It should produce a
profit of at least that amount.
CORRUPTION ANDINCOMPKTENCir.
"I say this condition of present finances Is
as much corruption as It la Incompetency.
- The fraudulent weighing of the malls Is
thievery. The corrupt expenditure of the
people's money in publlo subsidies Is robbery
' . and the campaign contribution of the bene-
flchiry corporation ara bribery... . . .-..-.
"In 1904 Mr. Perkins contributed JoO.OOO of
the. money of the 'widows and orphans tov
Mr. Cortelyou. campaign collector of there-
publlcan party. In 1906 Mr. Cortelyou a
pottmastof general paid back to Perkins the
party debt with public funds. He awarded
Perklna t contract tor his steamship line
which pays htm 600.000 a year more than
other steamship lines are paid for similar
service.
"Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Harrlman are not
the only men practical in this present ad-
ministration tsa public control or publlo
ownership will successfully elect faithful of-
ilcials and you will not elect faithful and
competent mon to office until you choose the
managers of your government with mora
consideration lor their worth than for their
' party affiliations."
