irai Now Lisbon, now called Lisbon, Coltim
tlnana county, 0. Ho wts born September
34, J837. When 15 years of age 1S52 the
family removed to Cleveland, O. Ho was
educated In tho common schools and tha
Western Hescrvo colleKe, Hudson, 0. His
employment In youth was in his father's
Krocory houso In Cleveland. Ho repre
sented, lifter tho death of his father In
1882, his Interests In tho firm for some
years and then engaged In tho Iron and
coal business, In which he has been largely
Interested and very active for more than
thirty years. His firm, M. A. Hanna & Co.,
Is Identified with tho lakccarrylng bus
lness and ho became a ship builder for his
own accommodation. Ho Is president ot
the Union National bank of Cleveland and
the Cleveland City Hallway company. His
presence ns a delegate In the republican
BitlorTnl conventions of 1884, 1888 and 1803
ciado tho country acquainted with him.
His father had the reputation of an excep
tionally strong character, sanaclous, Arm
of notnblo ability in business affairs and
altogether a masterful man, whoso qual
ltles his son Inherited, but with no Inclliyi
Hon to sparo time for political purposes.
Mr. Hanna Is practically u sclf-mado
mnn. He knows hard work nnd has done
his share ot It; ho Is a kind-hearted and
sonorous man, a friend of the poor; ho was
probably tho first man In tho country, cor
talnly tho first In tho tttato of Ohio, to
moot representatives of organized labor
and to advlao and help them.
Even slander bears testimony to tho po
tontlnllty of Mr. Hanna as a private citizen
and public man. Tho fact that ho Is n suc
cessful business man Is mado to play a
prominent part In tho ardent and vocifer
ous campaigns against him. Tho polltl
clans who deal in wind have n vocabulary
of contemnt nnd derision for tho man of
affairs whose competence for organization
and exociitlve leadership has been proven
by material results and It Is considered an
Intrusion nnd nn Innovation to bo rebuked,
If such a man becomes iilso an inllucuco in
politics.

Mr. Hanna Is a business man, who has
Justified In matters of state his distinction
In private Ufa for Intelligence, energy, fore
slKht. commanding enlightenment, accurnry
In comprcheusslon nnd precision In aim
that vlelds success. Hecauso ho had no
occasion to go Into politics to make a llv
lng H has been assumed by tho hnstllos
that his ways and means began und ended
In mnnov. In truth. Mr. Hanna took an
Interest In pontics from a Hcnso of public
riutv ii belief that the element of which
ho was a ropresentutlvo In his occupa
Hons should bo found to a greater extent
more directly personally active In the
, fundamental work of self-government that
(he ruin of tho people should be by nil tho
poopli-, Including tho business men. who
wcro too much disposed to leave politics
to become a profession nnd politicians a
class. Mr. Hanna had no Idea of attnlnlng
or attomntlne to enter olllcliil life. Lcnst
of all did ho think of money In politics.
Ho wns Interested In John Sherman as
tho statesman foremost In restoring " bis
country nfter tho war tho sotld foundations
of stablo financial vlows, nnd he thought
tho mnn who had dono ro much for the coun
try as Mr. Sherman had would bo still more
useful In other movements of magnitude If
ho could bo tho president of tho United
States. Mr. Hnnnu'H Idea woh that the
man who had returned gold nnd silver to
this country to bo the basis of n sound nud
durablo systom that would resist hard time
nnd rcstoro prosperity displayed eminent tit-
iipss for tho chief magistracy. Mr. Hnunn
eppenrrd In national conventions for Mr.
Sherman, fought his battles with tact and
dotermlnntlon, unsuccessfully, but honor
ably, and was beaten by circumstances not
controllahlo. Mr. Hanna's view wns that
found money and systematic protection of
tho Industries of tho country, as against In
llatlon and foreign competition, tho giving
ot domoHIc oacourascmcnt to manufacturers
to supply tho homo markets, would bo of
value beyond all estimation to tho men of
Inbor and tho men of capital in all the see
Hons and all tho states of the nation. It
wns for tho causo of sound money and solid
protoctlon that Mr. Hanna headed the
column for Shermnn. who hail mado by bin
treasury administration nnd tho legislation
by which ho perfected nnd conpolldatod his
executive work all tho dollars In this country

were experiences. They were not abstrac
tions, with a remote nnd fnlnt applicability
to our people, but cold, hard-edged, nipping
facts. That kind of politics has been held
by good citizens In great numbers to be

In tho communities whero President Mc

It under stress, drift nwny fromjho possi

It might be to broader lands, but certnlnly

Tho unity of purpose of President Mc
Klnley and Senator Hnnna bus been mis
represented with oxcesslvo malice and with
abuse It would slander the beasts to call
brutal. Uut the lntgrlty of both men has
not been less conspicuous than the great
good works they havo together performed
About 80,000,000 of American people nro
the beneflclnrles and tho witnesses.
The friends of Mr. Hanna may well scorn
to respond In kind or In measurn to tho tin
scrupulous vlndictlveness and vulgarity
that has been poured upon him In torrents
reeking with falsehood and rank with
venom. Hut It may be permitted to sDeak
briefly of the charge so profusely and
frantically made nnd with endless Itera
tion Insisted upon, that he Is a purchaser
of political power. This is the favorite
accusation of those who havo been beaten
by the business man, and they apparent!)
know nothing of business beyond what It
pays In cash. As politicians they have
such a disregard of their own class that
they treat their kind with disrespect and
assume thnt they nro all In the market
The assaults upon Mr. Hnnna are the
more odious In this that nit the varieties
that mendacity can command, equipped
with cartoon art ami the-Journalism that
wears the colors of Spain red and yellow
fall to infuse him, but statu the country
with their nolsomu effusions.
The true story of the election of Mr.
Hnnna to tho senate has a kernel in It
that should be husked thnt the fact may
shine. It Is that each of the seventy-three
men who voted for Mr. Hanna for tho sen
ate notoriously had tho offer of a brlbo of
the election ot himself to the senate It he
would give the signal by passing tils vote
that he was willing to throw down Mr.
Hanna and take It. Passing the vote would
havo been the signal for the entire opposi
tion to Mr. Hanna to go for the man who
was willing to put himself lu that position
and who could have olected himself by vot
ing for himself, "In the Interests ot har
mony."
Hoodie In Ohio.
The riotous use of money In Ohio elec
tions has for many years been a specialty
of the democratic party. No doubt there
are now In New York, perhaps In Chicago
also, democrats clnlmlug to be able
to carry Ohio for llryan If a
largo sum of money can bo furnished
them. They may find somo copper prince
or silver plutociat or rag baby tluanclcr
who holds his Investments In gold bonds
ready to Invest In tho story teller that
Bryan can carry Ohio with a certain liberal
turn, and thus sccuro a general panic and
cause the establishment of a "protector
uto" In the Philippines that will keep our
army there after the Hag they raised Into
thu high places has been pulled down.
Hut nbout tho oldest Joko on people who
put money Into politics expecting to buy
great results is that ot the democrats in
Ohio who rush off to New York and tell
how much can be got for a "little money."
This claim has been made nearly every
cnr tor moro than a quarter of a century.
Tho old guard of solicitors turn up Just tho
Enmo and Inorenso In confidence as they
find sympathy Is not aroused nnd money Is
aenrce. New Yorkers know pretty well
that the money given to carry the stato of
Ohio for tho democrats has not largely
found Its way Into tho campaign funds
nftor tho cash got Into tho state. Onco
upon n time there wns a case of J15.00U
actually raised by New York democrats
and transmitted to Ohio to do the always
promised trick Just once. It wns placed
In safo hands, for $5,000 ot It was actually
used for party purposes, whtlu $10,000 of
the fund swelled a bank account that wan
personal In Its nature, already plethoric,
und tho wonder was why the recipient of
the contribution was so foolish as to throw
away '5,000.
Fictions of (lie Illicitly.
Tho celebration by the opposition press
ot this country of Mr. Hanna has been
carried so fnr by continuous labors In ex
travagant nssertlon thnt ho Is ono of tho
men In whom tho world at large Is most
seriously Interested. This result of tho
nctlvlllcs of tho extreme pres3 Is not al
together to bo deprecnted. They havo as
sisted In ndvertlslng Mr. Hanna, nud his
churactcr beforo tho world 13 not harmed
by tho nssaults of his antagonists. Tho
most extraordinary powers and motives uro
assigned to him. Tho New York corre
spondent of tho London Times, In a recent
nrtlclo on "Democracy In America," tells
Europo this:
"Without moro exaggeration than Is per
mitted to tho freedom of private speech,
'Mr. Hnnna Is tho republican national con
vention.' "Of course, the decencies aro observed.
When Mr. Hannu, as chairman of tho na
tional committee, 'called the convention to
order,' with tho usual brief speech, ho ex
pressed himself in tho most decorous terms.
Hn Bnid: 'Gentlemen of thu convention: I
greet you on tho nnnlversnry In Philadel
phia of tho birthday of our party. I need
not remind you that your duty hero Is one
of deliberate Judgment.'
"This last sentence he uttered gravely
In tho faces of the 028 delegates, each one
of whom had his mandate In his pocket to
vote for Mr. Hnnnu's candidate, which was
rocelved with equal gravity and with great
applause."
Kaney that the next thing tho ablo cor
respondent mentions that Mr. Hnnna did
not prefer Governor Hoosovelt for vice prcsl
dent, but tho "decencies" were observed
again nnd there Is nn august Judicial air In
this saving clause; "No despotism Is with
out its limitations nnd no despotism retnlns
Its efficiency In tho presenco of an over
wlclmlng public opinion." After nil, then,
with every vote (020) In his pocket, Mr.
Hanna wns decent nbout It, nnd, when he
recognized public opinion, bowed to it and
politely assisted Its desire. Again we read
in this striking character sketch:
"Whon a decision had to bo taken It waB
loft to Mr. Hanna to say what It should be.
Every candidato for the vice presidency,
without exception, placed himself unrc
sorvedly In Mr. Hanna s hands. Hoes nny
political leader In such clrcumstunccs con
suit only his own personal preference? He
would not bo a political leader long If he
did. Mr. Hanna Is leuder because be knows
how to cnlculnte forces and to distinguish
between thoso which run bo controlled and
those which aro Irresistible. He is never
anxious to nsscrt his nuthorlty lu terms."

flcally this "despot" Is not a selfish one
He Is a natural born leader. He Is not 1
monster of greed, a devouring giant who ns
serts his strength tyrannously He is 1
gentle giant, nnd Is kind enough to find tho
public will enslly and to execute it smoothly,
Could nny democrat. American or Hrltlsb. do
better or be more obliging? He waits upon
tho people, that ho may bo sure of their
wishes, and then serves them to the best o
his great ability. If this mnn Is a "boss'
h. Is benign. There is a wholesome popular
ntmosphero nbout him. "A hundred miles
nway" Mr. George W. Smalley fays he Is tho
veiled prophet of the Thunderer In America
of tho statement Mr. Hanna prepared for
tho press when tho vice presidential crisis
came at Philadelphia and read to the re
porters
"I can hear, a hundred miles nway, the
honeyed tones In which his suavity
habitually exprefse3 Itself to nil the world
" 'The administration has hadnocandldato

tho convention should make tho candidate

circumstances several eminent republicans
have been proposed, nil of them dl
tlngulshed men with many friends.

in this request.
" 'In tho present situation, with the stron

crnor Roosevelt should bo nominated fir
Mi c president with the .sam- unanimity
'Tho delicate phrasing of that mani
festo, which on other accounts also Is welt
worth rending, would of Itself suffice to
show Mr. Hanna's method."
This Is regarded In England ns a power
ful nnd trenchant criticism, very severe, lu
a grand dignified style, but It Is rather a
clever wny of saying that nfter nit tho
blackguarding ot Mr. Hannn tie Is a gentle
man and a statcsmau and one of thn clear
sighted, sure-footed leaders, at least a lit
tle, probably a good deal ahead ot the rest
of the observers of n course of events In
ascertaining what the winning Influences

Smalley's Inaccuracies wo need not dwell

ho has found out tho first fact to take Into

Hnnna, and thnt Is, he Is a gentleman ot
