resolution was presented to the COM

Denman of San Franeisco:
Whereas. William Randolph Hearst
a millionaire born in this State. has
devoted his capital and energies to
the development of sensational jour-
nalistic enterprise; and,
Whereas, Pursuant TO his policy to
increase the circulation of his papers
by appealing to the most easily satis-
fed lusts of men-envy and malice-ne
has denounced and viciously cartooned
and caricatured the most distinguished
leaders of our party in this State and
nation; and.
Whereas, On the second defeat of
William Jennings Bryan, our standard
bearer in the last Presidential elec-
tion. and within forty-e 9Th hours of
the end of that CALAMITY fought cam
laign. he cruelty lampooned Mr.. Bryar
as the "Old man of the sea of the
Democratic party and.
" iNA teiSf - CcSeoAy q fAAFo'V SPA~~
he for years villified and tyaduced the
greatest representative and noblest
character California has ever sent to
Washington. Senator Stephen M.
White; and,
Whereas, On failing to obtain con-
troll of the party machinery of the
State in the last Gubernatorial cleo
ton he announced his opposition to the
candidate of the convention. in which
he had been beaten in open contest.
and defeated Franklin X. Lane for the
Governor ship by a narrow majority:
and.
Whereas, His gross and malicious
exaggeration of the few sporadic cases

ing to the quarantining of the exports
accounts of crime and vice in Califor-
mia, are but fair samples of his set
tied policy of coming newspaper cir
culation out of the alleged misfortunes
OF h native State; and,
sMLe. eas, He has besmi-ched the
fair reputation of California manhood
oy the publ cation under his own sig
nature of pages of grossly immodest
praise of his own virtues and grossly
dishonest representations or promisee
zuppo.t in his candidacy for the Presi-
dency;
Nov. therefore. we. the Democratic
Convention of the State of California,
denounce William Randolph Hearst as
a betrayer of the Democratic party and
aitor to the State of his birth.
and We further instruct our delegates
to present the above resolution to the
National Convention in ST. Louis"
