Hearst Views on Expansion After 1898 Election
Hearst, editor of the New York Journal, the Chicago American, and the San Francisco Examiner, defended expansion as necessary and prudent after the 1898 election. He blasted Democratic leaders as narrow and stupid for opposing expansion, urged approval of the war and its gains, and praised the Republicans’ conservatism and the nation’s continued expansion. The piece, printed in the Journal on November 10, 1898, argues the administration deserved a vote of confidence.
