The Washington, D. G., Sunday
Herald has this to say about an Ohio
an, who has future:
although Harrison was the nomi-
nee of the Chicago Convention, it is
equally certain that Mckinley was its
hero, and in the subsequent flood Of
golden opinions from all sorts of,peo-
Pile the brilliant young soldier-states-
man from Ohio should have trembled
at the scriptural warning addressed to
him of whom all men speak well.
His manly and honost little speech,
wherein he thrust from him the prof
fered Presidential crown, must have
warmed even an icier heart than John
Sherman's, by devotion to the des-
perate fortunes of his chief very much
at variance with the shabby sort Of
betrayals to which the veteran candi-
date is probably by this time pretty
well accustomed. The Republicans,
perhaps, have lost their best chance Of
success in neglecting to nominate the
eloquent young apostle of protection
whose name begins with the still more
eloquent prefix so dear to the Celtic
soul.
''But the prominent pedestal to
which he has so suddenly climbed in
the public regard recalls the fact that
he started out in the race Of life in
tolerably fast company. The Twen-
ty-third Ohio Infantry, in which
young Mckinley enlisted as a private,
when boy in his teens, was indeed "a
famous regiment that not even a
Grand Duchess Of Gerolstein need have
hesitated to celebrate in song. Its
successive Colonels, promoted almost
as fast as they could be appointed,
were Major Generals Rosecrans, Scam
mon, Comfy and Rutherford B. Hayes.
It's Lieutenant Colonel was named
Stanley Matthews. It's Major was
Russell Hastings, the sonorous orator,
now hailing from Pennsylvania, who
distinguished himself in the late Con-
vention. Its surgeon was DR. Webb,
brother Of Mrs. President Hayes. Ex-
Postmaster Anger, Of this District,
was Sergeant Major, and private Will
liam Mckinley attained the rank Of
Captain and Brevet Major before the
cruel war was over. He is yet in his
forties, and further promotion is not
wholly out of his line"
