General Otis believes that William Randolph Hearst is making a determined effort to secure the Democratic presidential nomination or place himself in a position to “swing” the nomination. The Democrats will divide between Hearst and Grover Cleveland, assuring President Roosevelt’s nomination and election. Otis believes that labor issues and the respect for law and order will be the key to the election. He wants strong declarations in the party platform but no demagoguery. Otis does not want a platform against organized labor but against “industrial disturbers.”
