An article in The London Post notes the change in New York Republicans’ attitudes towards William Randolph Hearst as emblematic of the “dramatic” and unprincipled nature of American politics. Author A. Maurice Low compares statements of Secretary of State Elihu Root during the 1906 gubernatorial race between Democrat William Randolph Hearst and Republican incumbent Charles Evans Hughes calling Hearst an “insincere, self-seeking demagogue, who is trying to deceive the working man of New York,” with New York City Republicans’ current alliance with Hearst’s new Independence League in a likely fruitless effort to defeat Tammany Hall.

In an article for the National Review, A. Maurice Low analyzes the possibility that Germany would come to the protection of the Atlantic Coast while the Great White Fleet travels to the Pacific and highlights the recent developments in the relationship between Germany and the United States. He argues that Roosevelt should seek another term of office, and that William Jennings Bryan has nothing to offer the American people, while deriding the failure of the Democratic Party at large. Finally, quoting financial representatives from several banking houses, Low explains that the fall of securities prices is a natural course correction. As an example of the bright future of American growth, he describes the construction of Gary, Indiana, a city built for the manufacturing of steel.
