lo th toast, -Reminiscence of McKlnley." I
He said In part:
Mr. Toaatmaster, Fellow Republicans.
Fellow ntlsess: 1 desire In th name of
the republicans of Omaha. I desire In the
name of the"r'publlmn of- Nebraska, and
if I might be allowed to do so, In the name
of the republicans of the nation, to make
the acknowledgments of the party to (gov
ernor VanPant. Who has been so steadfast
snd foarleaw- In his stand for the rights
of the pewple and aelf-government. In
doing this Governor VanPant not oply
stood for the republican party,, but for th
people of the I'nlted Plates. The republi
can party oily governs the country be
cause the -people, have ct'nfidpnce In lt
Integrity and uprightness snd In the In
trgrltv snd uprightness of its officers, and
this Is the reason the will be returned ttt
another four years. .
It Is fitting on this anniversary of the
birth of McKlnley Unit a reference should
be made to some of his actions snd wprds
during his publlo career. I am sorry that
It has come to me, .for there, are-others
who knew him before I. Oeneral Cowin
here was with Mm frl the war years before
1 bad heard of him,- -M personal acquaint
ance with the president only began when
he came to Omaha In 1IW2, at which time he
addressed an Immense audience. He visited
gain in Nebraska en several different oc
raslons on, behalf oX the republican party.
In October1, I8m. lie came as president 111

ficers of hl cabinet,- some members of
the diplomatic, corps, Oeneral Miles and
others; It waa ft gf'eat occasion for Omaha.
I remember when I asked him to come.
He Intimated It was too much for him to
come out- here, but I replied that It was
the home of the opposition, of Bryan, and
of the populist partv. He then cheerfully
aequleeced. I axked him Why be did net
bring Renator Hanna and he replied thit
that would savor too much of polities.
I'erhaps no man ever In the White House
wa so good a politician as he. I have had
the fortune to know personnlly the three
presidents mentioned here tonight and per
haps none kept their csr so cloaa to the
ground and got such correct Idens nf the
trend of popular feeling as did McKlnley.

When the president came to Omaha h'e
wss most pleased by a picture of his
mother which 1 happened lo have "and
which I Moaned to the Omaha club and
which was hung In his roomv While he
gloried In the enterprise of Omaha In build
ing the exposition, nothing, he said, pleased
him so murti as this picture.
I met McKlnley irt Canton three weeks
before his Inauguration and we were talk
ing about the Inauguration. He pro
pounded the question, . "What did I think
of Lyman Gage for the treasury?" At
that time he Was not 'known In this connection-.
I said there might be some feel
ing against him as a national bank man.
An ardont republican 'Wo was present ob
jected to Gage, saving that he waa n.
bolter.-. "Oh, - Uat don t -matter," replied
the president, "some men men bolt the
ticket. I of course always vote It stralffW."
I have seen McKlnley under all condi
tionsthe most trylnavibut only-once did
I ever see when he was angry. .That was
about Nebraska. The name of Mr. Thomp
son had been presented for a mission and
McKlnley had demurred, saying that he
was under oblla-atlnn to Powell Clayton.

senator pressed tne claims or.air. inomp

that Nebraska might go democratic. The

have In Nebraska," he said, "let the State

know Mr. Hanna will not be a candidate. I
have seen him tried a chairman of the re
publican national commute and can rom-
frehend clearly his conservative wisdom In
hatjnatter, but It does not mean that he
Is for himself. The country contains at
least a doxen men of large experience. In
politic, aay Hx of them democrats and six
of them republicans, willing to hold the
great office of president, who feel that If
they are not choaen foa that dignity this
time thev are not to gain the honor, but
must accept the illustrious no of- the de

have the right to run. I could name this

flllded about well. I shall not sav how they
I are divided, for that Is more than I know,
lit Gain laoe Polltlelan.
I have a respectful regard that is affec
tion for Mr. Hanna. gnd he has sometime
honored me with his confidence, and, above
II men. he Is not a gum shoe politician.
When h walks abroad you can hear the
ound nf his footsteps. I shall speak what
I believe Is the serious and exact truth.
It Is my Judgment that he is of the opinion
that he. has so. worn himself In the service
of his country that his strength will not
permit him to assume the Immense snd
uncontrollable effiiKlon snd pressure the

now that the martyr McKinlev waa, when j
wn-npumaipii, worn ana weaa; mat ne
could hardly have survived his second term,
putting forth the measure of the strength
he gave the first.
There goes with my affection for Senator
Hanna, and I know the perfect faith and
the force he gave to aid the ambition of
John Sherman, and the noble devotion
and success he gave MrKlnlev. and bis
refusal to be a cabinet officer. He exactly
mensured and knew the extent of his en.
durance snd the element of unselfishness
wss a potent element all the while Rut
this It is unnecessary to sav. The. world
knows It. The convention In Ohio re
sponded to him unanimously when he paid
the tribute he gave President Roosevelt.
It was a prudent and eloquent, clear and
clean-cut speech. ,
Republicans hsve suffered- so much for
not giving Sufficient attention to organisa
tion that I hesitate to say that which la the
necessary corollary to what I ha,va already
said. That Is. it in needed that the whole
story shall be spoken. Senator H.tnna's
approval of the president wss applauded to
the echo. The Immense delegation from
Hamilton county, led by George H. Cox, the
Customary leader, led the plaudits, and
Hamilton county gave an enormous ma
jority for the whole ticket.
Opposition Tramped l'f. .
However, after that factor, Within a few
days I heard men prominent In the organ
isation begin to talk against the nomina
tion of Roosevelt. They then found all
sorts of fault with the president, and there
was a notable feature In the press of the
city. The two leading paper, one reputed
republican and the other democratic, played
on a single string a dsily tune of antagonism
to the president and his administration,
the republican paper sounding the roost
thrilling notes. This , may be only
the phenomena of the latest
phase of independent Journalism.
As an article of political muslo, supposed 'o
contain the "keynote" of the music opening
a momentous presidential campaign, at the
very time when public opinion should give
forth no uncertain - sound, this Cincinnati
music does not seem to be the correct'thlng
from the county thnt gave over 80,000 ma
jority for Herrick, Hanna and Roosevelt,
I hv not been of those who have assailed
George Cox right along. I have a grateful
appreciation of the growth of republican
majorities, but It. seems possible when -we
examine the case that the ambition of the
leadership of Hamilton county, and that
leading - Ohio, may have daixled snd
dlziled even the sober brain of Mr. Cox
and his close helpers, so that It seem to

GIYEN IN HONOR OF BRITISH AMBASSADOR
Freqaeat Messages Exchanged Be

Ico'a Tablea and (ho Onests
at tbo ( arletoa. Hotel.
LONDON, Jan. 29. While the American
branch of the Pilgrim society was giving
It dinner tonight at Delmonico'a In New
York In honor of Sir Henry Mortimer
Duraiid, British ambassador to the United
States, the English branch f the society
celebrated tha occurrence with a supper
at the Carlton hotel.
Shortly before tne Pvelmonlco's banquet
commenced some seventy members of the
Pilgrim' society here at down to a num
ber of small tables, which were all looped
up with telegraph wires, strung on minia
ture pole and decorated with foliage.
Among those present were: Joseph It.
Choate, the American ambassador; the earl
of Halsbury, lord high chancellor; Sir Ed
ward L. . Dura.nd, , brother of Sir Henry;
Sir Thomas Llpton, Lord Deerhurst and
Lord Fairfax.
The unique feature of the evening con
sisted In the Installation by a transatlantic
cable company of cable instruments In one
end of the -upper room. By means of this
arrangement, frequent messages were ex
changed between Delmonico'a In New York
and the Carlton "hotel here, so that the
English Pilgrims felt almost as much In
touch with the New York celebration aa
If they had been actually present.
Two old grandfather' clocks, one show
ing English and th other Amerloart time,
enabled. Mr. Choate, th earl of Halsbury
andj the other to keep an -ey on ths
progress of the New York banquet. The
banqueting hall waa decorated with a great
profusion of Intertwined British and Amer
ican flags... Just before the-dinner began
the following cable was sent by Becretary
Wilson to Walter Neef of London:
"Hello, there. Whenever you are ready
we are. Hoop la.'' Bishop Potter ent
thl to Lord Roberta: '
'Lord Roberts We reciprocate your good
wishes and return hearty greeting. Ood
peed, the good work of the Pilgrim and
all efforta to bring the Anglo-Saxon race
together. -We' hope you Will pay u the
promised visit."
