" There are some curious coincidences, in the 'na
tional tragedy over, which the country is. now mourn
ing. It is the second time that an Ohio President has
been assassinated and a New York Vice President

secretary to assassinated Lincoln. ,

I CRITICISM OF THE CALL. I
In the Wasp this morning appears the
following editorial comment in reference
to The Call: - \
¦ One of oar ' lllnntrattons . depicts
the crowd gathering around the of
fice of the Morning Call to read the
bulletins relative to tlie assassina
tion ot President' McKlnlcj-. Tbe
Call Is one of the oldest newspapers
In San Francisco, and one of the
greatest ln the Unllted States. It
lias for 'fifty years been known a*
the family Journal pur excellence of
the Pacific Coast. Reliability is its
motto— "Be cure you're rlffht then
go ahead." ' Tbe Call spares no ex
pense in getting the news and is al
ways thoroughly np i|o date in all its
departments. ¦ Its pli-torlal features
are a. revelation of vrhat can be ac
complished in illustrated dally jour,
nalism. ylt not only employs the
best artists in th« country, ' but
achieves the niore <tlifflenlt feat of
printing their worlc so admirably
that the beauty of The Call's en-
Srravlngs are tbe i wonder of tbe
-world of art. If any one department
of The Call is more deserving of spe
cial notice than another, it is ', its
editorial department. Tbe Call's
editorials are masterpieces and ex
press in no. dubious terms the opin
ions of the journal. On great public
Questions Tbe Call speaks in no un
certain tones. .This llias been partic
ularly , noticeable daring the long
strike in San Francisco. The Call
has come out boldly; for law and or
der, condemning? t)»e attempts to
create anarchy that find expression
ln brutal assaults on non-union men
who d«re ( to take pliicen vacated by
the strikers. This independent
course had added much to The Call's
influence among the lair-abiding
people' tot the State.

A California automobillst walked Into
the office of the Fairmotmt Park Com
mission recently, and handed back to
Secretary Martin the number for an au
tomobile Issued to him by the commis
sion, says the Philadelphia North Ameri
can.
"You may want it for. somebody else:
besides, we don't have tags like that in
"Frisco," he said, as he returned the talis
man entitling him to use the Park drives.
"Such consideration is unusual," said
Secretary Martin. "Out of about 400 num
bers issued to automobile riders to us*
the park drives, many are held by non
residents. In Reading and other cities
residents have numbers, so that they can
pass through the park when visitins
Philadelphia." .
WANTON criticism of Presidents Is no new thing.
But only in these later years has it led to results so
deplorable.' Whether insane or an anarchist, there
is unquestionably a connection between the shoot
ing of "William McKinley ' by Czolgosz and the
defamations of the yellow journals. Says Dr. Allen McLane
Hamilton, professor of' mental diseases in the medical college
of Cornell University: "No one except a physician who sees
much of insanity or persons whose mental condition is. doubted,
can appreciate the Influence of the present distorted, public
sense of decency. This is manifested by a lawlessness which
finds expression* in some of the public prints and in the delib
eration of societies instituted for the relief of the oppressed.
This literature and these societies are usually a menace to law
and order in putting into the heads of half -cracked people per
nicious . ideas which they almost immediately act upon." Dr.
Hamilton says that there have come to his notice lately,
numerous cases of disturbed mental states which were du«
directly to such influences. Only a few weeks ago a man
went to him N with a number of newspaper clippings of an in
cendiary nature, and after showing them announced his in
tention, of killing several. prominent persons, among them be
ing J. Pierpont Morgan and Senator. Hanna.
The Chicago Journal, in an editorial on "The Yellow Press
and Anarchy," says: "If what Hearst's newspapers have said,
printed and portrayed about President McKinley were true,
be was not fit to live, much less to rule. * • • They could
not have made more scandalous, more bitter or more degrad
ing, charges against the greatest scoundrel on earth." And
John Most, the -leader of the anarchists, says to the police as
he repudiates Czolgosz: "You wish to make this man one of
us Why don't you read the New York Journal? Look at the
caricatures on the last pages, where your President is por
trayed in a way that would make even a bootblack ashamed."
"What~ wonder, then, that Czolgosz should get it into his
brain to put President McKinley but of the way after reading
the articles defaming him either In the- Hearst papers or in
some just as disreputable! It is with extreme sorrow that
The Pacific sees the pernicious influence of such papers. It
seems strange that a man of such life-long advantages as W.
Ji. Hearst should give himself to that which is so generally
regarded as one of the basest uses of talent and wealth. It is
The Pacific.
Let us hope that in this experience yellow Journalism may
receive a lesson which will tend to its profit and purification.
. In the presence of such journalism The Pacific can not re
main silent. "We dare not let it pass unnoticed and unrebuked.
The San Francisco Call and the Bulletin have spoken plainly,
but these are daily rivals of one of Hearst's papers, and aa
such their utterances might be discounted, in some circles. Tha
readers of. The -Pacific will not question, our motive nor dis
count what we say. The present writer, recognizing- the great
influence of the press,, devoted himself at the close of his col
lege life twenty years ago to journalism. "We have no less ani
estimate to-day of that Influence. It molds thought and Yf.Jk
far more than most people are aware: and we tremble for tha
welfare of the nation when we think of some of the hands
into which It has fallen. "We were glad to read in the news
papers of this city extracts from -recent sermons by ministers
denouncing yellow journalism, but not one named any paper
as such, and it is a singular fact that some' of those denuncia
tions were printed in the very paper at which they were
hurled. It would seem that there are publishers -whose moral
judgments are so conditioned that they are unaware of th»
fact that they are issuing such pernicious papers. Or else, in
tho hour when the thunder and lightning of wrath is playing.
they seek by the publication of the denunciatory utterances to
protect themselves from its strokes.
But as we read there is constantly before the eyes that
printed cartoon In which McKinley is pictured as applauding
the trusts, which are represented as riding down, in an auto
mobile, the common people. . • ¦
with astonishment that we compare what is said and printed
in his papers since McKinley was stricken down with what was
said; and portrayed previous to that time. And all -without
any * admission of previous mistake or injustice. In one of
these papers it is said: "To "William McKinley was intrusted
the care of a nation, .great, powerful, self-sufficient, free from
dangers and turnroil. His duty was to guide the great machine
honestly,' cautiously, according to the will of the people. . He
did his duty and he died at his* post. • • • His life was com
plete. The nation for which he worked he leaves powerful and
prosperous. • • • He knew that in the land where millions
had opposed and disagreed with him politically not one was
free from deep sorrow, not one but felt the national calamity
as a personal loss."

The politicians who sit on the minor bench, the
Sheriffs. and the official heads of the city and State,
may be well assured that going with the mob and
winking nt murder will not make votes. The un
armed majority, that is being deprived of its rights
by an armed and desperate minority, -will be armed
with ballots on election day, and the official friends
of the mob will find that these voters have good
memories. - ; r ;¦ .-^

If it be too long, and the people are deprived of
the government for which they pay taxes, in the city
and in the country they will move to protect them
selves.' How' long will exposure to murder and risk
go on before they are. driven to this last resort for
'the restoration of order and the preservation of. life?
riot to hold the streets by day and by night before
they act, or confess their fear to act, and, call < also
heart has been profoundly touched by the murder of
the President. That great . crime Vests upon such
foundation of the myriad of lesser crimes committed
in this city. The highway can never be safe for the
President unless it is also safe for the humblest citi- '
zen while in pursuit of his lawful "purpose and occu
pation.
Organizations of our. most respectable and respon
sible taxpayers and business men have asked' Mayor
Phelan and Governor Gage to enforce the law and
stop these murderous assaults, which in number now
run into the thousands, and have been answered by
shifty evasions which in a year from now will be gen
erally execrated as evidences of cowardice.
How long will the spectacle abuse our patience?
How long will the Sheriff of Contra Costa. County
ftvait on the Supervisors who refuse to give him a
force that can protect the loading of wheat at Port
Costa before he throws the responsibility upon the
Governor by confessing that he is powerless to en
force the law? How long will th^Mayor of this
city and the Sheriff of this county permit murder and*
HOW long will public patience endure the con
dition of affairs in this city, and along the
lines of travel that reach it?
Practical immunity from punishment has so em
boldened the strikers that they no longer take pains
to identify the men whom they rob and attempt to
murder. Peaceful travelers who are not coming here
as laborers, but are business men, are attacked by
gangs of cowardly ruffians on trains and ferry-boats,
and not only grossly insulted and beaten, but robbed,
and are helpless to resist or protect themselves
against the overpowering number of their armed as
sailants. Such travelers have been pulled out of their
berths on sleeping cars, humiliated and roughly
handled, on suspicion that they were coming as
strike-breakers, and some, if permitted to reach the
ferry-boats in peace, have been met on board and
beaten brutally.
For a time a man took his life in' his hands only
when he walked the streets of this American city,
where men are maimed, murdered or robbed with
impunity by strikers, regardless of whether they are
non-union workmen or not. But now the death pen
alty is put upon such as choose to approach San
Francisco on the highways of travel. Do the lawful
authorities know the somber significance of all this?
Do they know that it is permanently injuring the
prosperity and good name and fame of San- Fran
cisco? Do they know that men are everywhere con
cluding that this city is under the thumb of thugs and
thieves? - '
Is there no law to protect men against these open,
defiant, murder-intending and death-inflicting mis
creants? They are a small minority of our people,
they are even a minority, of our laboring population,
but they h2ve been emboldened by the lawlessness of
the minor courts, the criminal neglect of duty by
police magistrates and the silence of the Mayor, until
they have suspended the civil law, removed all pro
tection of personal rights, and set up a bloody
despotism with murder as its object. We speak
plainly, for the emergency requires it. The public

The Philadelphia • Inquirer has pointed but the moral for the whole people in these
emphatic words: "And let it not be. forgotten that anarchy and yellow journalism are one."
The Stockton Independent quotes an editorial; of the New York Journal saying:
"Do you doubt that Mark Hanna, acting for McKinley, will increase the army, and, if oc
casion arise, use it against organized labor, which he so much hates?" Of that and much
more of a similar kind the Independent says: "It is the stupid, sodden, unreasoning, irre
ligious and irresponsible mind that is fired to hatred; disorder, treason and crime by
these utterances. As a class these degenerates are in greater proportion in New York
than elsewhere, so Hearst's paper has an easier field for crime than its equally guilty con
temporaries that have- used- the same arguments, repeated the same lies and imitated the
same methods." * -'-.¦
V These quotations from. the. press of all parts of the country will suffice for to-day.
We present them in order that our readers -may be made a^are of the extent and the
depth of the feeling that has arisen against the yellow, Journals. As the Alameda Argus
has said: "We must not think that Hearstism is an affliction; peculiar to /California. ".- It
; is known all over the country and people every wtiere are turning to drub it."/
• The Santa Cruz Sentinel was threatened with a loss of subscribers because it
pointed out the responsibility of yellow journalism for the crime ; of Czolgosz, but no
such loss occurred, and in commenting unpn the threat the Sentinel says: "The anony
mous communication read as if it was written in the interest of the Examiner and sent to
us as a bluff. This is a bad season of public sentiment to run a bluff on 'any one or any
thing in the interest of anarchy. With a President dead, and a people exasperated, this is
a good time for the champions of disorder to hide beneath thistles."
The Nordhoff Ojai: "It appears that one bright reflection from the crime at Buf
falo is the probable downfall of yellow journalism and in particular the tabooing of Wil
liam. R. Hearst's triangleof infamy,, the Journal-American-Examiner. Hearst- was hanged
in effigy at Hanford, and from all parts of the State are reported excoriations of the Ex
iner by the press and pulpit. Hearst's Eastern semi-anarchist organs are likewise being
exposed to the withering heat of indignant public opinion."
The San Jose Herald takes a' similar view of the present course pursued by the yel
low journals, and says of the one in this city: "What does the Examiner know of conscience
or political policy? Its present attitude is even meaner than its abuse and crocodile
tears." ¦¦• ¦••¦{'• . '- "'->:
The Tacoma Ledger notes the statement. of the Examiner that it does not reply to
the charges brought against it and its allies by the indignant public because, "The Ex
iner has too deep and sincere a respect for the President" to -reply now, and makes the
pertinent comment: "The papers attacked should have been ready with a rejoinder. Jt is
weak for them to make such a plea as they are trying to hide behind. They have never
shown any respect for Mr. McKinley, have slandered him freely, have deliberately mis
construed his righteous acts, and now the profession of sorrow strikes the judgment as
being a grotesque and pitiful pretext." ~" ¦ . (
Such, expressions show the temper of the press and the -people of the East and
the South. A similar tone prevails here. The patriotic press along the entire Pacific
Coast has spoken out manfully against the Hearst papers with special , reference to the
Examiner. . -;\ . .
The Nashville American quotes from the New York Journal this statement made
after the assassination: ''The old-established Presidential custom of receiving all citizens
and treating all comers as worthy of confidence and friendly greeting must be aban
doned. * * • * The times prove that humanity in this country is no longer univer
sally worthy of the confidence which the handshaking custom implies." Thereupon the
American adds: "If such a condition as the Journal asserts really exist, and we do not
deny that it does, such yellow newspapers as the New York Journal have contributed
their full share to the existence of such conditions. * \* * No intelligent, decent,
healthy minded man can have any respect for such a paper, as the New York Journal."
The Chicago Journal says: "The Journal has no hesitation in pointing out where
the real responsibility rests for the crime against the President. The yellow and irre
sponsible press of the country by their degrading and malicious attacks on public officers
and men in high places have fostered discontent, have promoted anarchy and have made
possible just such crimes."
The New York Press quotes the words of Emma Goldman when arrested: "Why
should any one wish to kill McKinley? He is the most insignificant President the United
States ever had." And adds: "There is but one source on earth from which this woman
could have gathered this estimate of this man. It is in the editorial pages of the New
York Journal and its allied publications in Chicago and San Francisco/' -
The Albany Evening Journal asks the pertinent question: "Who is the greater crim
inal — the man of superior intelligence who insidiously incites to murder, or the ignorant,
perhaps weak-minded, one who, urged on by incendiary speeches and writings, goes forth
to do the killing?"
The Bridgeport Standard sojiiids JtKis} warning -r : --"The ; murdCT.6f'"a,P>esjdaai^jslfiut
the first fruits of that sort of pabulum thrown broadcast among ; the people; the other
logical consequences will be general murder, riot and rapine. And law and decency stand
supinely by: and allow this deadly work without \a protest. * * ]* ] Only the madness
of the anarchist, inflamed by the promptings of dirty journalists who seek for gain in the
gutters of political warfare and incite the desperate to. murder, can be found to account
for this most infamous crime." • •
The New Haven Leader says: "The excesses and indecencies of New York yel
low journalism have often arousedthe disgust and abhorrence. o£ decent, people, but now
it has so aroused their indignation that there is cause for belief that radical' and effective
action will be taken. Just now these yellow .-.journals are loading, their . columns with
praise of President McKinley. * They are doing; this with the smirk of the hypocrite and
the impulse of the coward. * * * Let no one forget, /however, that President Mc-
Kinley has ior years been denounced and vilified by. these yellow anarchists." ¦
The New York Independent says: "Behind these little groups of anarchists, the
John Schwabs and the Emma Goldman's, behind the Paterson,; or Chicago, or. Detroit
conspirators, stand those other infamous 'slanderers of, the Government and rulers that
make it their business and trade to inflame the public mind. * * * To them we must
look for the accursed inspiration that struck down the President. They are not to be
laughed at, not to be taken lightly, but with indignation. We doubt not. that Senator
Hanna is in the same danger of assassination as was President AlcKinley, and if he should
be shot it will be the yellow journals that are to blame.: But what care they?; The
murder of a President sells editions." . ¦ , ¦ \ c .
!¦¦!-¦ ¦ ¦ ' • > ¦ ¦ ¦ .¦---.'¦•'¦.¦¦.¦- ¦ - ' •
RARELY has there been a sentiment, so well nigh universal among the people and
' the press of the IJnited States as that which now holds the Hearst newspapers re
sponsible for the spirit of anarchy that led to the assassination of President Mc-
Kinley. In the mourning for the illustrious dead * there glows a deep wrath
against the yellow journalism that fostered the crime. . The feeling "could not be repressed
even in the solemn ceremonies ofi Thursday, and from the lips of almost every orator
of the day throughout the land there came well understood words of condemnation
against the vicious papers which, after having long defiled the profession of journalism,
have now brought about a crime at which the" world stands aghast. -
