The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1901-10-12
A BILL OF PARTICULARS.

T N the Examiners last Jack Cade manifesto, in
which everybody is warned not to touch it, for
it is the American people, those who oppose it
are specifically described criminals whose schemes
of plumber it has thwarted and who have in contem-
plation crimes like those for which have been
sent to jail.
This makes necessary bill OF particulars. The
Hearst papers have been attacked and condemned by
President Eliot of Harvard and by Cardinal Gibbon
What nefarious scheme of plumber had they hand
and how was it thwarted by the Examiner? Cham
bers of Commerce, commercial bodies, social clubs
and secret and beneficial societies. all the
try have attacked and condemned the Hearst papers
In what plundering scheme they thwarted by
those newspapers Let us have the particulars If
college presidents and Cardinals and a majority of
the social and commercial organizations of this coun-
try, are contemplating plumber and crime and bite
their thumbs the Hearst papers because they alone
prevent the of these distinguished criminals,
it is surely alarming state of affairs and the anarch
of the dailies should let us know all about it.
Bishop Potter and Father Doyle the Paulist DR..
Hills of Beecher's church, Dr. Savage of the Uni
tartan Church of the Messiah, Archbishop Riordan
and President Jordan Rev. Robert Mackenzie and
Gavin McNab, President Wheeler, Rev. William
RAIDER and Mr.. Lindsay, grand chancellor of the
Knights of Pythias, among those who attack and
condemn the Hearst papers, and the Examiner says
they do it because those newspapers prevent them
from carrying out plans criminal as any that
have sent men to jail.
This is alarming if true. The Examiner boasts that
it is the defender of the people, and has the courage
of its convictions. Why not draw on its stock of
courage and its knowledge of the criminal schemes of
these gentlemen and let the public know the extent
of their criminal plans which it stays awake to
thwart overthrow and defeat?
Among the newspapers which have attacked and
condemned Hearsts yellow papers those leading
Democratic papers, the Brooklyn Eagle, Detroit
Free Press, Philadelphia Times Washington
Times, New Orleans Times Democrat, Chicago
Chronicle, Louisville Courier Journal Sacramento
Bee and Colusa Sun. In what scheme of
crime have they been thwarted by this champion
thwarter 1t will be very interesting to know what
crime Colonel Henry Watterson intended to
NIT when Hearst caught him at it and promptly threw
out his thwarter and thwarted him. Colonel Waiter
son travels good deal and may try to work his
scheme of plumber and criminal plan when Hearst is
not looking so it is quite necessary that the Ameri
can people shall be put on to Colonel Wattersons
criminal combination in order that they may in
the fire alarm and thwart him before he can work
it. Mr. Hearst should abandon his attitude of gen
eralities and inform the public fully about these
things
The American people of whom the Examiner
kindly but firmly takes charge sending their chill
dren to Yale and Harvard and Stanford and
Berkeley and to Rutgers and the Cooper Union, and
the other hundred institutions of learning which have
condemned Hearst and thrown his papers into the
ditch. Ii the children of the people being sent
to institutions which would commit such crimes as
send to Jail if Hearst should turn his back, it
should be known at once and Hearst should publish
ground plan and front elevation of the crimes these
colleges and universities would commit if he gave
them the chance
In play that is popular three characters called
Colonies Yell, Brag and Blow. The very
applicable to Hearsts three newspapers, for by YELL
brag and blow they hope to weather the storm of
popular indignation which has swept them of all
respectable places in the United States.
