Citizens of Hanford Burn William R. Hearst in Effigy
HANFORD, Sept. 6.—William R. Hearst was to-night burned in effigy in this city. It is claimed by the citizens who had the affair in charge that the Examiner, American and Journal have done more to incite anarchy in this country than all other sources combined. Several hundred citizens watched the spectacle and great excitement prevailed for a few moments. The talk on the streets against Hearst and his un-American papers is bitter.
