NO DEMOCRATS, SAYS HEARST
Declares that All That is Left is a
BRYAN Party.

Bryan Party.
San Francisco, Aug 27.-William
r. Hnrst gave out last night the
contents of a letter he addressed to
the lroquois club of San Francisco
democratic organization, replying
to the request of the club that he
tender his resignation as a member.
Mr.. Hearst says in his letter that he
is both pleased and surprised to
receive the letter from the club
pleased that he has been asked to
resign, and surprised to learn that
thu club is still in existence.
Mr. Hearst continues
You imply that | am not a democrat
and | strNgly suspect that | am not,
according to democratic standards OF
today You imply further that you
are democrats, and | cannot help
wondering what kind of democrats
YOU think you are. Are you 1892
democrats or 1896 democrats, or arc
YOU 1908 democrats? Are you Cleye-
land democrats, believing in tariff
reform that we do not get? are you
Parker democrats supporting the
trusts II they contribute and oppos.
ing them II they do not? Are you
Bryan democrats believing in free
silver, sometimes, and government
ownership some times, and in the
initiative and referendum some times?
II YOU are Bryan democrats do you
believe in a Bryan platform hat con
tains none of these things?
Friends and eX-brothers of the Iro-
quois club, there is no democratic
party. There is only a Bryan party
and the followers OF that party don't
know when they go to bed at night
what they viii be called upon to be-
licve when they awake in the morn
ing.
And so I received your communica-
tion with pleasure and gratitude, ami
50 I withdraw from your club with
pleasure, and without the slightest
hard feeling. Good luck and God
bless you and may you be able to
keep mp with your mule,
