M,KINLEY,s DIGNIFIED CAMPAIGN.

In the campaign which is drawing to a
close Major Mckinley has had to represent
something more than Republican principles.
That he has done this ably, effectively and
brilliantly all must admit. In number. va
riety, versatility, aptness and force his
speeches to the delegations of representa-
tive people from all parts of the country
who have visited him daily for many weeks
past have only been equaied by those made
by General Harrison in 1888. His arguments
in favor of protection and sound money; in
favor of preserving American markets for
American workmen, and paying the highest
wages in the best money; in favor of de-
Tending the national honor against repu-
diation and the national authority against
mob law and anarchy: in short, his argu-
ments in favor of all that the Republican
platform contains and implies have been
such as to fully vindicate the wisdom of his
nomination and his fitness for the presi-
dency.
But Major Mckinley has had to represent
something else besides Republican princi-
pies. He has had to represent the tradi-
tional dignity of the presidential Office as it
has been handed down from Washington
10 the present tlIfle. On6 OIL the HldA1iuS
that has adhered to the office is that it is
one to be neither sought nor declined. BY
this is meant that while it's dignity is such
that any man should feel honored in being
called to fill it, or even named as a candi-
date for it, no person should belittle it by
using the arts of a demagogue to secure
it, or by running about begging men to vote
for him after the fashion of small poiiti-
clans seeking small offices. 1t is greatly to
the credit of Major Mckinley that while his
opponent has been scurrying about the
country in special trains, travelling day and
night for weeks. speaking with unkempt
hair and begrimed face to disorderly and
sometimes riotous crowds. appearing even
in his nightgown, dispensing personal slam
ders. making personal appeals misrepre-
senting history and distorting the truth.
playing on mems passions and appealing to
their prejudices, trying to array the poor
against the rich and employees against their
employers scattering firebrands wherever
he went and preaching the gospel of dis
content aid haze. of lawlessness and mis-
rule. OF nancial disaster and dishonor--it

From the beginning of the campaign I'M
til within the last few days Bryan has been
telling his farmer audiences that the fall
in the price of wheat was caused by the fall
in the price Of silver which in turn was
due to the '.crime of 1873. Now he says
the recent rise in wheat is due to a scant
supply, and adds: LAS a scarcity of wheat
makes wheat higher so scarcity of money
makes money higher AT this unthinking
people applaud as if Bryan had made a
point. AS a matter of fact, however, there
is no scarcity of money.

CHICAGO, Oct. 29.-One of the notable
meetings of the campaign was that held
in the Auditorium tonight under the aus
spices of the Marquette Republican Club.
The following telegram from ex-President
Harrison was read and greeted with cheers:
Il am very sorry that l cannot speak in
Chicago. 1t was in your city and by your
Governor that the issue was newly raised
that the enforcement of the national laws
by the President and the United States
courts an invasion of the rights OF
the States. You should kill this dangerous
heresy in the place of its birth. LaW-abid-
will, a full value dollar and home work for
home folks will bring back the prosperity
BENJAMIN HARRISON" :.
The hall was filled to it's limits and great
enthusiasm was manifested. The speakers
were Albert j. Beveridge Chairman De-
witt and Jesse Spalding. Mr.. Beveridge is
an indianapolis orator whose voice has
been heard in this city before, and his ad-
dress tonight was well received. His elo-
quent sentences were frequently applauded
and his vigorous denunciation of Governor
Altgeld and w. J. Bryan met with the ap-
prevail of the audience.
At the close of the meeting Mr.. G. E.
Dewitt, president of the Marquette Club,
said to your correspondent: Mr.. Bever-
idge's speech was one of the best ever de-
livered in Chicago. This is the unanimous
opinion of the officers and members of the
Marquette Club. The enthusiasm of the
immense audience could not be restrained.
1t was continuous ovation for nearly two
hours. Altgeld was answered to our entire
satisfaction"
