McKinley's Last Address. q xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Thsodobe Roosevelt is the youngest of all our presidents, being forty-three years of age. Emma Goldman-, the high priestess of anarchy lectured in West Point, Nebr., about ten years ago. Fkioat next will see a railroad station, "where passengers and freight will be landed," six miles east of here. Cody (Wyo.) Enterprise. THE ANARCHISTS. John Most was arraigned Friday for pleading in court at New York City. He is now at liberty on $1,000 bail. Emma Goldman was banged in effigy on a street in Milwaukee, Wise., Friday night. Shortly after President McKinley was shot, a Pole appeared at Bivalve, Md., and secured a place as a hand in a sloop. He was fairly well dressed and educated. The day after the president died a pas senger on a passing steamer threw a newspaper aboard the sloop, containing an account of the president's death. The Pole secured it and while the crew were waiting for him to read them the story, he exclaimed: "Good, and Teddy will be next in a short time." The crew set upon him and severely injured him, rendering him unconscious. The cap tain and mate interfered, but later, when the master had gone aft, the crew picked up the unconscious form and threw it overboard. The excise commissioners of Newark, N. J., have unanimously resolved to re voke the license of any saloon keeper who harbors anarchists in his place of business, and allows them to make speeches against the government. John Drowdoski, the saloon keeper in whose place the police made arrests of two men a week ago for drinking the health of the assassin of President McKinley, has had his license canceled by the board. Friday last at Washington a man ap proached several pedestrians and asked the address of President Roosevelt's sister, Mrs. Commander Cowlee. He is described as about forty years old, speaks with a foreign accent, has light mustache, wears dark clothes and carried a box about eight inches long and three and a half wide. The police are looking for him. thought that while it was the duty of delegates to nominate a ticket, it waa no less their duty and that of all republi cans to work for the success of the ticket nominated. William A. McAllister received the unanimous nomination for county judge. Dr. D. G. Walker for coroner, and F. A. Gottschalk for surveyor were nomi nated unanimously, by acclamation for the respective offices. For sheriff, two names were mentioned, and a ballot was taken, resulting in George Brodf uehrer 74, E. C. Morrow 16. On motion of Mr. Morrow the nomina tion of Brodfuehrer was made unani mous by acclamation. Mr. Brodfuehrer expressed his thanks to the convention, and Mr. Morrow, in a neat little speech said he hoped the gentleman will be elected, and said he would do all in his power toward that end. Lee Martyn of Humphrey was nomi nated unanimously, by acclamation for treasurer. He thanked the convention for the honor, and said that if elected he would try to discharge the dnties of the office in a faithful manner. Prof. R. M. Campbell of Humphrey was then nominated unanimously, by acclamation, for superintendent of schools, thus completing a ticket, excel lent in every respect. Chairman Ragatz stated that the labors of the convention bad been com pleted; a good ticket had been nominat ed; we bad never better reason than today for being republicans, and on motion the convention adjourned, im mediately after which the county central committee were called by its chairman, Ed. Hoare, to meet at the Meridian for initial campaign work. lepuMican County Convention. It seems that Fremont, Nebraska, has qaite a number of anarchists who have been holding secret meetings. Heir Host's paper has a limited circulation there. Damage by fire to the amount of 1100, 000 was sustained by Chicago Tribune, Shay t Co., Florsheim & Co. and the American Bill Posting company, Madi son street, Chicago. At the trial of Czolgoez Monday Booming, his plea of "guilty" was not allowed to stand, nnder the law, and a plea of "not guilty" was at once ordered by the court. The jury has been com pleted, and it is thought the trial will sot be lengthy. An earthquake shock preceded by a wind and rain storm was felt at Aber deen, Inverness and other districts in the northern part of Scotland at 130 Wednesday morning. Buildings were damaged and clocks stopped. The shock lasted three seconds. Pbesidext Roosevelt, in his action asking the cabinet to continue in office, and in declaring that, so far as he is con cerned, the policies of the late president will be continued, has evidenced to the country his good common sense and dis criminating judgment. Prospective buyers of oil land are coming to town every few days and are being taken out to the Salt creek oil lands by the Casper gentlemen who have interests oat there. During the past week Major French went out with a ooaple and L S. Bartlett has been out with five who are contemplating invest- lag in property in this part of the coun try. Natrona (Wyo.) Tribune. Pbopkrtt valued at 9250,000 was des troyed, and two lives were lost in the barningof the main building of the Nor folk hospital for the insane Monday aaorning. Victor Keeper of Colfax ootuaty, twice taken from the blazing bailding, rushed back a third time, and perished in the flames. E. Jesperson of Cheyenne county, badly burned when resoaed, died of his injuries during th day. Tme ways of the opposition are some what similar in different parts of Ne braska. The Albion News has this par agraph: "Judge Campbell who had served four years in office was rejected by the pops on account of length of ser vice, and W. A. Hosford was taken up who had been honored with eight years of coatiauoas official life. Consistency doss not appear to weigh down our pop alietio Meads by its bulk." At the convention last week at Lin coln, Jadge HoUenbeck of this district waa Boaunated for supreme judge. The dsiociatic convention gave him the aoauaatioB on the second ballot, but sa ballots were taken before the popu .liata found it in their hearts to give in. Mr. HoUenbeck is a democrat The resasinrior of the fusion ticket is: J. H. Braytoa of Frontier county and F. G. Hawxby of Nemaha for regents of the State Uaiversity. Tme Philadelphia Press well says of Roosevelt's declaration eon- hie policies: "This sentence is the shortest inaugural in our history. It promises to prove the most cosapre awamive aad satisfactory. It is pledge, platform and policy in one. It accepts the fast, assures the future and calms the present. It gives a grief-stricken the broad, general and generous it desired that the principles ' of aa administration success ful beyead aay other in our day aad are to be continued, entire plete, by President Roosevelt. itry desires ao more than an ias prosperous as theoae aacUy closed in universal grief and and the beat friend and of the new no greater te asset this desire, whose fallllateat Going to press on Tuesday afternoon of last week, we opened the forms to state very briefly the result of the repub lican county convention, which met in adjourned session, at the court house at 2 o'clock. Here we give the full proceedings. The chairman, Henry Ragatz, called the convention to order, and Frank Walker resumed hia place as secretary. At the former session, delegates were selected to the state convention and a county central committee named. The following resolutions, presented by C. J. Garlow, were read and on motion, unanimously adopted: Whereas, Our country's flag floats at half mast over us, as well as over the entire nation, and the dark clouds of gloom hover about us and our heads are bowed in sorrow by reason of the death of our martyred president, and Whereas, We recognize in the late president McKinley, a statesman unex celled, whose principles were a blazing star to the world, whose judgment was a Gibraltar to his nation, whose actions and words were the rudder that safely guided the tottering bark through the thickest storms to safety; whose counsel was sought by the greatest nations of the earth and his decisions respected by even his political opponents; whose firm ness and adherence to principles of jus tice and humanity were as immovable as the mountains; a man against whom no honest, fair-minded man, no matter what his political belief is, can accuse of one dishonest or dishonorable act, and most of all, a man whose social and domestic life has been above reproach, whose christian fortitude has been the admira tion of the nation; and Whereas, An invalid widow is left to mourn the loss of a beloved hnsband. whose presence at her bedside so often soothed her in her afflictions and brought sunshine to her heart, and we, realizing, but feebly though, this sad state of affairs, pause to reflect upon the cause; the story is short, an assassin's bullet, and we were horror stricken at the enor mous crime, the magnitude of which the human mind cannot fully grasp. A blow, not so much at the man, the dead hero, as at the nation's flag, her freedom and her humane and enlightened institu tions. To face the fact, that the poor, ignorant off-casts, as well as the enlight ened demons of all nations are given a home, nursed, fed and protected by our government, will plot to destroy our people and set at naught our laws, is a serious proposition, for no punishment can be afflicted commensurate with the crime. As a hen gathereth her brood under her wings, this government gathers all who set foot upon our sacred soil; the poor and the rich, the white and the black, the meek and the lowly as well as the highest in rank, all are as one, and yet there are those anarchistic demons, who stretch forth one hand to greet and with the other to shoot down the man who happens to be objectionable to them. Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That we, in convention as sembled, do unanimously extend our deepest sympathy to the heart-broken companion and widow of our late presi dent in this hour of personal,, and na tional gloom. That we realize our great loss in the untimely death of our beloved leader in politics and the nation's good, and that our appreciation and sympathy can best be demonstrated by that calm and -honest action which was so forcibly present in the one we mourn, and our allegiance to good laws and order shonld ever mark our paths. That we respectfully demand that our legislative bodies take such steps as will exterminate anarchists and their damna ble teachings and literature and thereby ensure peace and safety to our public sen and also to the nation. Noaiinations being in order, Captain Jess was nominated unanimously, by acclamation, for the office of county clerk. Being called forward, in a brief speech he thanked the convention for the honor conferred upon him, and said by ha tret, frank, fall declara-1 tht would make an effort for the success of the ticket. He expressed the Menwrial Service. Pursuant to the proclamation of Mayor Ragatz as published in last week's Joubkal, memorial services were held at the opera house Thursday after noon. Excellent music and very appropriate for the occasion was under direction of Miss Ethel Galley, Miss Florence Whit moyer accompanist on the piano, with the following as singers: Mesdames Freidig, Geer, Evans, Erskine; Misses Galley, Bertha and Tena Zinnecker, En lalia Rickly and Martha Turner, and Messrs. Cornelius, Meyers, Heineman, Brady, Hickok, Getz and Borer. The hymns were "Oh God our Trust in ages iubl, our uope ror years to come; "Nearer, My God, to Thee;" "Lead, Kindly Light," closing with "America." After a hymn by the choir, and invo cation by Rev. Roach, addresses followed as follows: MAVOB BAOATZ. We are here today on a common foot ing as citizens of this great republic to pay tribute to tho memory of our late departed president. We mourn his un timely death. At a time when least expected, like a thunderbolt out of a clear sky, the news came from Buffalo that President Mc Kinley had been shot by the hand of an assassin. The people were slow to believe that such a horrible crime could be commit ted at this time while we were at peace with the entire world. While mingling with the people, his face beaming with good will to men, his right hand extended to grasp the hand of his fellow man, a monster in human form, not openly but with his right band bandaged to hide the deadly weapon, came up and shot the president, before any one could interfere. Lulled to sleep in sweet security in the conviction that all was well, the American people are rudely awakened to the fact that they have a new enemy to face; an enemy that had apparently been subdued after the Haymarket riot in Chicago. We can realize that there may be some shadow of an excuse in some of the monarchist governments for anarch ists, but in this country where the peo ple rule, where the people by their votes elect their rulers from among their num ber, there is no excuse. Czolgoez had no grievance against the president As loyal American citizens, ever ready to uphold law and order, let us face this new monster calmly and with determi nation once for all, united let the slogan go forth that we have no room for anarchists in this country. Indifference to the passing and en forcement of laws suppressing anarchy has blossomed into violence. The pres ident was killed because he stood for law and order, and goodgovernment wm. jucrtiniey represented the best type of American citizenship. He was my ideal of a man, as a husband and father, as a citizen, as a soldier, as a statesman, wherever dnty called him he came nearer filling the place of an ideal American citizen than any man of our thne. The tremendous responsibilities, the worries, the anxiety resting on his shoulders as president of the United States whitened his locks and farrowed his brow, and if the truth was known, I believe he would gladly have laid down the cares and responsibilities of office last March and retired to private life. History will give him a place beside George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln and James G. Blaine. W. M. COBXELICS. "It is God's way His wiU be done"; such were the last words uttered by William McKinley, then president of these United States, on the 14th day of September, 1901. One week prior to that time, the elec tric wires carried to every city and ham let in this broad land the direful tidings that he had been stricken down by the hand of an assassin. The pulse of the business world ceased to beat; the hand of the mechanic was stayed at the anvil; the trade of the merchant atood still; the pen of the writer fell from a nerve less hand; the people of the whole civil ized world waited for further tidings, hoping and praying that the news would not be confirmed. For a time, favorable dispatches relieved the anxiety, ad all classes and all parties were cheered with I the hope that the hand of the anarchist had failed in its dreadful purpose. They waited, trusting and believing that the life of the president would be spared. It was not to be. "It was God's way," and today the bells all over this land have tolled their last sad requiem as he waa laid in his final resting place. But, quoting the language of Garfield after the assassination of President Lin- coin. "God reigns, and the government at Washington still lives." The weapon in the hand of the anarchist may strike down our chief executive, but no anarch istic hand can destroy a government wnere more than fifteen million people enjoy the right of franchise, and every voter is a patriot But, strong as we are, great as is the nation, we mourn today in heartfelt sorrow for the loss of one citizen, a chris tian gentleman, an able executive, and a loving;, tender husband. A short time ago the sympathy of all the people, regardless of party affiliations, went out to President McKinley as he tenderly guarded the loving wife whose illness carried her almost to the near shore of the river of death, and we little thought during those days that the strong man would first cross to the farther shore, leaving behind his invalid wife, to whom the whole world gives its sympathy. A nation of wives and mothers mingle their tears with hers for the dead today, and their sympathy for her, and their loving tender messages of condolence will strengthen her in this the hour of trial and tribulation. A brief statement of the life and wofk of President McKinley will not bo out of place at this time. Born in 1843, at Niles, Trumbull coun ty, Ohio; at sixteen years of age he be came a member of the Methodist Epis copal church. June 11, 1861, he enlisted as a private in Company E of the 23rd SAi.: ri . m iuiu luiuQieer xnianiry. lie was pro moted at different times for gallant oonduct on the field, and served his country during the entire war, and in 1865 he returned to his home and began the study of law. Admitted to practice in 1867, he made his home at Canton, Ohio, and became a leading member of his profession in Stark county, Ohio; in 1876 he was elected a member of con gress, and held that important position for seven successive terms, and in all the important measures that came before the house of representatives, he was a conspicuous figure. He served two terms as governor of the state of Ohio, and in 1896 was elected president of these United States, and was re-elected in 1900, and served but a few months of the second term when stricken down by a member of the party that represents all that is bad in morals, religion and politics. That is a brief statement of the career of William McKinley, the beloved presi dent of the republic, the earnest patriot and the christian statesman a life that is worthy of emulation by the young men of today, and we, as Americans, can take pride in saying that he was a Christian; that a Christian statesman has been no exception in the executive chair the same qualities that make men Christians are the necessary attributes to greatness in this land of freedom and eduoation. We stand the peer of all nations today; the policy of the United States has con trolled the foreign powers in all the international affairs. Our commerce covers both oceans, and the future is bright before us. All these blessings are attributable to the general education of the American people. I might say we are too liberal; we have allowed in our midst a class of people who though few in number, make themselves conspicuous by their virulence and malignity. We have no place for them in this govern ment, the patriotism of our citizens will make this, to them, forbidden ground: the stars and stripes were never meant to wave over and protect the profes sional anarchist; and this their effort to destroy the government by striking down the chief executive on the 6th day of September, will be their last The public sentiment of seventy million citi zens is a stronger safeguard around our chief magistrate in this country, than would be a triple row of steel bayonets around the ruler of any foreign government No movement ever suoceds that is not voiced and commended by the majority of the people, and the coming generation that is now receiving its education in our common schools, is learning patrio tism at the desks, and the time of social ism and anarchism is passing awav. There is nothing.to support the doctrine of the position of their leaders today, their claim that there is no evidence to connect them with the tragedy at Buffalo, shows the reliance they place on the laws of the land when needed for their own protection, and yet at the same time they advocate the abolition of all laws. It is well for them that American citizens are tolerant at this time. We meet today to show and express our appreciation of the great man who has passed away. His work is ended. It has gone into history and awaits the judgment of posterity, but it is fitting that we should now remember the vir tues of the man, his filial love, his dew tion as a hnsband, his kind heart, his integrity of purpose. It may well be said, that his acta "plead like angels trumpet-tonm against the deep damnation of his taking off." I take the liberty of closing by a quo tation from a recent writer, which will be most fully understood and appreciat ed by the veterans before me: "Farewell to him, who by Colombia's aid. Watched history's lengthened shadows past her glide Aad wore the blae, aad laughed at pais. And saw the long years slide. For noblest Buabood has he borne. And followed where the lac has gone. Bat all the echoes, aasweriag roend about. Hare bidden him to sleep, Lights oat! Lights oat! men, esteemed and loved by all and not apprehensive of any danger threatening him, until the cold perspiration of death, gathering about his brow, told to him and to the whole world, that he was the third victim to be here sacrificed in appeasement of the frenzied hate and madness, which is born of the deadly propoganda of anarchism. Amid this universal gloom of national sorrow, the tear of patriotic sympathy stands forth mirroring a nation's heart bleeding on account of him who but a few days ago stood among; a free people as the representative head of this great republic But as we stand here today, almost transfixed in ghastly horror, at the dia bolical act which no doubt was intended by its fiendish but deluded perpetrator as a deadly blow at organized govern ment we would yet deign look up and as we lift our eyes above this all-pervading gloom we behold through the rift in this dark cloud of sorrow, the star of the republic still high-sphered and trium phantly ascendant in the clear sky of the union, shining still with an ineffable brightness, and, floating over that star in tranquil security, is the glorious ensign of the republic now honored throughout the earth, bearing no such miserable interrogatory, "la all lost?" but bearing on all its ample folds that other sentiment dear to every true American heart, "The union of indes tructible states, now and forever, one and inseparable." But, my friends, the finer chords of true sympathy and the better angels of our natures are deeply moved when we reflect that President McKinley, amid all the pressing duties and perplexities of his business and official life, never wearied in his constant attention to and tender care of his beloved, invalid wife; while his filial devotion to his aged mother imparted to his home-life that sweetest and purest quality which graces and sanctifies the true American home. My friends, while I gave my support to his worthy and distinguished competitor for the presidency at the last two elec tions, still William McKinley was my president, and I here recall with a feel ing of patriotic pride, the fact that when war clouds were hanging ominously over this land in the winter and early spring of "98 President McKinley proceeded with great caution and viewed with statesman-like gravity that most critical situation, lest he might be urged by congress and the war spirit prevailing among the people irrespective of party, in precipitating the ennntrv intn ,- with a foreign nation, without just cause. Nor did he issue his proclamation until the final crisis culminating in the battle ship Maine horror in Havana harbor. What greater evidence of wise states manship and loyalty to country was ever witnessed by the American people, when President McKinley commissioned two conspicuous ex-Confederate generals and distinguished sons of the south and assigned to them the grave and responsi ble task of driving the Spanish armies from Cuba, Lee to force the surrender of Havana, and Wheeler to lead the charge at Santiago, while this glorious promise of restored fraternal feeling and relations between the north-land and south-land was forever redeemed and made perpet ual when we beheld the sons of the union and ex-confederate soldiers clad in the same uniform, keeping step to the same music, and marching under the same flag in storming the heights at Santiago, the battlements of Manila and the cap ture of Malolos. I recall with patriotic pride the further fact that at the close of that brief bnt most exciting war, Presi dent McKinley, following the example of the noble Lincoln, with his humane heart ever responsive to the mother's sobs, the father's appeal and the wife's bereavement, and remembering the mis takes and indiscretions incident to the service of the young soldier, in time of war, relieved the sentences of the mili tary courts of their harsh and extreme penalties in many instances by commut ing them, and by granting full pardon in others. But, my friends, while this nation stands today with heads bowed in great grief around the bier of one of America's greatest, historic characters, great in purity of private life, in state craft, and in that broader humanity which, if we are to endure a free people, must achieve its greatest triumphs in bringing peace on earth, and good will toward men, we uiuub not iorgec inac a question more serious than the loss of any man now confronts the American people. That the problem now presented for solution is one, the final analysis of which shall forever establish that American soil and climate can never be made indigenous to the exotic and deadly microbe of anarch ism. I have grave fears that the present mood and excitement among all the peo ple will cause congress and the several state legislatures to further complicate and postpone a wise disposition of the question by enacting measures which will only have the effect of driving this terrible viper within padded walls, there in secrecy and with none save its own vile brood about it to better nourish its deadly venom and to bide its time for the next unsuspecting victim to its mur derous blow. Rusian thistle and aa a premium on wolf scalps I would devote it to the extinc tion of the Rusian anarchist and the reclamation of the boy coyote whose only home is the box car and whose only book is such low-toned and vicious liter ature as "Diamond Dick," "Big Knife" and "Billy the Kid" or the "hero of the last train robbery." But do these things and we will speed the day when one and all can with Long fellow exclaim: Thoa. too, sail on O Ship of State! Sail on, O Union strong aad great! We know what master laid thy keel. What workmaa wroagat thy ribs of steel. Who made each mast, and sail, and rope. What anvils rang, what hammers beat. In what a forge aad what a heat Were shaped the anchors of thy. hope. Sail on, nor fear to breast the sea. Our hearts, oar hopes are all with thee. Oar hearts, oar hopes, oar prayers, our tears. Oar faith" triumphant o'er oar fears Are all with thee-all with thee. .

The gatherings aroand the family altar, in the public places, the silent mournfal marchings through the cities and villa ges in all this land today testify to the profound sorrow and deep sympathy which we aa a whole nation feel ia mom ory of him who so recently Buagled life will never prevent murder, or impris onment the larceny of a horse, neither will drastic measures prevent anarchy or drive anarchists from these shores. I would urge a broader humanity and philanthropy if we are to prevent and remove this greatest of all dangers now menacing the lives of those in authority. I would educate anarchy out of these people by educating love of country into them. I wonld make the opportunities in life's struggle as nearly equal as pos sible; make the lowliest individual in all the land feel that the government's munificent, all-fostering protection is for him equally with the highest. Instead of the government devoting its revenues to the dredging of dry rivers, the build ing of forts aroand waterless harbors, and two-million-dollar post-offices snd other federal structures in our cities where a half-million-dollar one wonld eclipse all others around it in massive and architectural splendor, it should apportion these redundant treasures among the several states and, supple mented by the states for the establish ment and maintenance of inrinetn.i schools in which the homeless and neg lected youth can be taught useful trades and educated in political economy, bold ing up before him the great ideals of our history in government in art and science and in the industrial world.
