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

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.

For sheriff, two names were mentioned,
and a ballot was taken, resulting in

On motion of Mr. Morrow the nomina

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

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
