An Aggressive Kdltor Whose Methods lluve Olvcu 111m a "Wide Jtcputatlou Ho ia Now the Owner qf Three Great Nuwapiipcr Properties. . One of the most aggressive of Amcrl cuu editors is Wllllum ltaudolph Hearst, of Now York, Sun Krnuclsco, and now Chicago, where ho has estub llsod a now paper, Hearst's Chicago nicrjcnu. He Is tho foremost retire Hentatlve of th6 now journullsui. Mr. Hearst Is a son of tho late United States Scuulor George F. Hearst, who made an Immense fortune in mining enterprises on tho 1'acltlc slope. Ho was born In California thirty-eight years ago and graduated from liar vn rd University. He Is tho owner nnd editor, of tho San Francisco Examiner, tho Now York Journal, tho4New York Evening Journal nnd the Now York Morgeu Journal, and the now Chicago paper. Mr. Hearst acquired his tasto for journalism as editor of tho Harvard Lampoon, when ho was In college. After ,ho had finished school, his father, tho Senator, said to him: "Now, young man, what do you want to nrako of yourself?" "An editor," Bald young" Hearst decidedly. Senator Hearst gave him $1,000,000 and he Invested it in a newspaper. That paper is now the Sun Francisco Exam Incr, hut when Mr. Hearst taught it It was n small affair, and tho little repu tation it had was not tho 'best He made a success of the Examiner, and in two yours' tlmo it became ouo of tho Influential newspapers of tho United States. Hero Mr. Hearst obtained a good deal of valuable experience'- nt "a cost of considerable money. Ho sunk nearly all of his $1,000,000 In Intangible assets beforo ho begun to get any re turns on tho luvostmo'ut. To-day tho Examiner pays a princely Income, Mr. He'iirst then went to New York nnd looked over 'the Held. Ho bought a newspaper, tho moribund Journal, that hud been drugging along' under tho management of Albert Pulitzer. A laugh rippled along Park How. That was In 1S03, but the. nnmd of Mlilnin Handolph Hearst had not gono very far la Journullsui live yenrs ago. Mr. Hearst had the disadvantage of looking very young and very Innocent. He seemed to bo nbout 25 tall, blonde, smooth-shaven and mlld-mauuered. His eyes arc bluo and- ho has a bland nnd childish smile. Now York Journalism started out to have boiiio fun with him. At that tlmo the New York Journal had a circulation of about 75,000 nnd no ad vertising to spank of. Consequently wiseacres commonly believed that tho young, man from 'Frisco had invested In a gold brick. Fnragrnphcrs made funuy remarks and caricaturists felt rich In Mr. Hearst's innocent fnco nnd wido blue eyes. They represented him as tho "Baby Cowboy Charging Purk How." Mr. nenrnt 'begtlrt to run tho New York Journal on a plan that was new to tho East. Ills mqthod was looked upon with horror by some people, and It Is to-day, for that matter. Headlines Spanish war. He lent his pen and hfa reddest ink and his biggest type to bringing It on. When tho war came on he went to Cuba and visited tbo catnpa of tho soldiers. For a tlmo ho took charge of his own news service aud di rected tho handling of news nt tho front. Ho tendered his yncht, tho fast est boat In Southern waters, to tho Government at a time when a dispatch bont was Borely needed. The, offer was npcepted.nndthe Hearst yucllt did good service till the lighting wns over. If ho was against the generals mid tho .Hoard of Strategy he was nlways In favor of the men In the ranks.

Mr. Hearst printed the uuws, but he printed It In his own fashion, Things which had formerly appeared on the front pugo In. leaded type went to the buck pnges or failed to get lu altogether. There wns noth ing hidebound about the Journal. He-cnuf-e things always had been so wns considered tiio very best reason for" a chungo In tho Journal office. Tho Journal respected no "w'lilty elephants" or "sacred ?ows." It wnlked over tho corns of some eminently respectable people, nud when they "hollered" the Journal said that It was doing them good. , "Hope you feel better," said Mr. Hearst, as he went on to disturb more bunions and swash more bric-a-brac. Tho Journal nud Its methods attracted people who like that sort of thing, nnd they now foot up a vnst army. Mr. Hearst soon found himself In nn easy chair on top of a heap of broken Idols and with two profitable newspapers In his control. Hut It was not until the last Presi dential cumpnlgu cume-ou that Mr. Hearst made bis reul mark In New York Journalism. The young paper had begun to "sit up aud tajie notice," but Its future wus not assured. When the Democratic convention met in Chicago It nominated Bryan in the teeth of tho New York delegation. Mr. Hearst's advisers told him that New York was a gold center, and that to swing -the paper to Bryan meant the ruin of a promising newspaper plant. Mr. Hearst, said that the Journal would be a free silver paper, and It was. Bryan and Hearst are now ai brothers. Editor Hearst was la favor nt the AN HISTORIC EVENT.
