In tho light of tho tragedy at Buf falo, a peculiar Interest attaches to an address delivered by Mr. McKlnloy at tho dedication of a soldiers and sail ors' homo In Cleveland on July 4, 1801. Just boforo ho spoko tho iissombLd school children of Clovoland had sung a patriotic song, beating tlmo to their music with Hags which thoy held In their hands. Air, McKlnloy began by referring to this pleasing sight, udd ing: "With patriotism in our hearts and with tho Hag of our country in our hands tboro Is no dangor of anarchy, . . . Anarchy flees boforo patriot ism. Poaco and ordor and security and liberty aro safo so long ns lovo of coun try burns in tho hearts of tho people . , . Liberty to mnko our own laws docs not give us llccnso to break tbom. Liberty to mako our own laws commands a duty to obsorvo thorn our solvcs and enfarco obodlenco among all others within tholr jurisdiction.

His death teaches tho samo lesson as his Clovoland spoooh that tho onforcomont of Just laws nnd tho Inculcation of truo pa triotism aro tho safest and surest means of suppressing anarchy.
