MEJNLEY TO THE WHEELMEN.

Not the least remarkable thing about the
speeches which Major Mckinley. with steadily
increasing force of argument and felicity OF eX-
preston is delivering day after day to visitors
of various tastes occupations and habits OF
thought is the special propriey of every address.
Within few hours the whole country gets pos
session of IT, and no intelligent citizen finds n
sentence which does not interest him. But there
is striking individuality to every speech. never
theleSs which makes it peculiarly appropriate
10 the circumstances producing it. and which
testifcs anew to the candidates extraordinary
range of information and his faculty of adapting
his uttcranccs to his audience. He would read
ily be excused if his speeches did not always
correspond exactly to the occasion. if his Illus
trations sometimes seemed TO be forced into the
situation instead of flowing naturally from 1t.
and it. now and then. there were suggestion
of WEAKNESS and artiliciality in the perform
ance But IN fact. there Is never anything to
make allowance for. Every speech has the ef-
feet of originality and the latest seems for the
time being to be the best
There was a perfect example Of this rare
talent in the address which Major Mckinley
made 10 an immense concourse of bicycle riders
last Saturday. and in the course of which he
said
The wheelmen know as we'll as any part Of
our population what good roads mean an how
much easier it is to make progress and time over
them than poor roads. They know, too,
that for three and half years this country has
been travelling over rocky road" full OF ruts
and covered with distractions, and as a result
the American people have had very hard road
to travel They want improvement. They
not only want better roads for their wheels. but
they want every obstruction removed from the
great National highway. so that the wheels or
industry will start in every factory and mill in
the United States.
1t is high art in an orator to take an ustra-
ton from the most familiar experience or his
auditors and to make an argument out OF II
which is not only precisely adapted to their com
prehension, but full Of meaning for all who are
anxious to promote an important object. Major
Mex finley Is an adept in this art. and that Is a
chief reason why his speeches are giving intel
lectual satisfaction and winning a multitude Of

LORD ROSEBERYS RESIGNATION.

Lord Rosebery does well in resgnng the LID
cral leadership. That is. indeed, the only logical
and dignified course he can pursue. lie has had
TO lead the party under great disadvantages and
amid all his difficulties has borne himself with
galantry. He is entirely out of harmony with
the great mass Of the party on the most impor-
tant issue now before II. He committed the
British Government TO its present policy with re-
gard to Turkey and Armenia, and Lord Salisbury
has merely continued 1t. Now. however. the
Liberal party demands that that policy shall be
reversed. Its representatives all over the land
demand it. lis press demands ii. Its former
unrivalled leader. who made Lord Roscbery his
successor energies from his retirement and de-
mands it. But Lord ROsebery is conscenliously
convinced that that policy was right and is right.
and that reversal Of il would be blunder and
a crime. What is there left then but 10 resign
For other reasons. too. his retirement Is 10 be
commended On other subjects he is at variance
with the party 1t is now distinctly Radical; he
is a born arstOcrat. 1t clamOrs for the abolition
OF the House of Lords: he is a member of that
House. 1t embOdies the antgambling sentiment
of the natOn he Is proud Of being Derby
winner as of having been Prime Minister 1t
contains a large element avowcdy in favor of
doing away with the monarchy; he Is close
friend Of the Prince Of Wales. II was an anom-
ally 10 make him leader of a party that was
called Liberal but was really Radical 1t will
De a relief to him, and TO ii to have the ilcon-
ceived relationship ended. He assuredly will
not be the loser by it. Nor will the party fall
under unworthy leadership. Sir William Har-
court will, no doubt, be chosen 10 succeed him.
Sir William is advanced in years and lniirm In
health. but he is still in the very prime Of men
tai vigOr. He is a COmmoncr commanding the
full sympathy of even the extreme Radical wing
of the party; yet. as descendant Of the Planta-
genet kings. he has the recognition of Church
and aristocracy. and is persona grata at Court.
Since the retirement Of Mr.. Gladstone he has
no rival az an effective and brilliant debatcr.
and he was the most successful Chancellor Of
the Exchequer that England has had for years.
The party could have no better leader than he.
and none whose proceedings would be watched
from this side OF the Atlantic with more cordial
sympathy.
