Miller reference reads: “The Examiner harbored a crew of
Bohemians probably regarded by the sober element as subversive, not the least of them being the huge, yellow-haired, whisky-drinking poet, Joaquin Miller, who had already written his own eulogy and built his own funeral pyre beyond Oakland. Hearst had surrounded himself with a gallery of talented eccentrics who required the most gentle and understanding supervision. His success in keeping them reasonably in hand was itself an achievement.”
