Hen. Wm. Mckinley.
Pine Bluff Commercial.

Pine Bluff Commercial.
In spite of the criticisms that are be-
ing made of the present administration
it's chief Hon. William Mckinley, if
his conduct during the closing part of
his term favorably compares with the
beginning, will be classed by the future
historian among "The Popular Presi-
dents of America" While he graceful
ly bears the dignity of his office, his
quiet manners and simple tastes are
without parallel among the prominent
men of the day and are such as to
commend him to what is popularly
known as "the people," On the occa
sions of his visits to his home in Canton,
1t is by his special requests that no pub
lie demonstrations are made. and intact
whatever he does or devines of per-
sonal nature, the simplicity which
characterizes him as private citizen is
as apparent now as ever He etrols
down Pennsylvania aYenue, stopping
here and there to greet a friend, or
such other acquaintance as he may
meet as an ordinary man would do,
and if the verdict of tie whole of
Washington, that there is no difference
so far as outward appearances GO, be-
tween his conduct as Congressman
from Ohio and the President of the
United Ste tes. Unlike Harrison, he
has no baby Mckee with which to run
the country daft, and the movements
OF his family are kept in the back
ground from consciousness that the
domestic affairs Of public character
are of no avail to anyone except him
self. Whenever the President is
spoken of at all in connection with
Mrs. Mckinley it is in com
mon place way. There is no gossip of
'drunkeness" or "cruel treatment
around the White House, such as
marked the last administration, but
the truth is, Mckinley is fond of his
wife. and the story goes that his whole
life is saddened by the fact of her deli
cate health and her inability to fully
enjoy the pleasures which properly be-
long to the first lady of the land"
All his public utterances have a
patriotic ring, and what the demegog
aspires to, winning popular favor, by
unfare and insincere methods, Mr., Nc
kinley has accomplished by leading
life that is true to his nature. His
domestic relation, simplicity of char
acter and kindness of heart have en-
deared him to the whole people re-
gardlesss of politics. The stiffness
and ostentation which pervaded the
White House during his predecessors
occupancy is gone and there is cordi-
ality and good cheer for all alike.
When MIR. Bayard said to hls English
friends that Americans are impulsive
and warike, and often required a
character like Grover Cleveland to
keep them in check, he made state
ment that has been disproven areaey.
With the great diversified and con-
hicting interests of the Udited States,
we have President uniformity kind
and gentle and while there are wars or
rumors of war in almost every other
nation on the globe, our country is at
peace'with all the world, and the only
moments of regret are those when the
study, good people of the nation allow
themselves to retrospect with reference
to ''the Stuffed Prophet of Princeton.

THE PRICE OF A HAT.

Think what a price to pay,
Faces so bright nj gay,
Just for a hat
Flowers unvislted, mornings unsung,
Sea ranges bare of the wings that o'erswung
Barred just for that!
Think of the others, too,
Others and mothers, too,
Bright eyes in haiti
Hear you no mother groan floating in air?
Hear you no little moan-blrdling's despair
Somewhere, for that?
Caught mid some mother work,
Torn by a hunter Turk,
Just for your hat!
Plenty of mother heart yet in the world;
All the more wings to tear, carefully twirled
Women want that!
Oh, but the shame of it;
Oh, but the blame of 1t,
Price of a hat!
Just for a Jauntiness Frightening the street!
This is your halo. o faces so sweet

THE FOOT BALL FASHION.

Thanksgiving day is fast being trans.
formed into foot ball day. In nearly
all, perhaps all, of the large cities of
the northern States there are from one
to a score of games set for every
Thanksgiving day. Chicago has four
of note for today, and countless others,
~dwindling in importance, like the Indi-
ana road that shrunk from a wagon
track to a cart track, dwindled to a
bride path, thence to a trail, and then
degenerated into squirrel track and
ran up a tree.
These savage games have come to be
the fashion, and fixing them on this
festival day promises to change it from
a bone picking to a bone breaking
holiday. That, however, is only in
passing.
The occasion leads to the thought
that something ought to be done by
somebody either to change the fashion
or change the name. Foot ball is fast
growing to be repulsive except to that
underlying survival of the savage in
man which leads him to run to see a
fight.

in a way, but its brutality was 80

ing a camel, indeed. If, again, the
gambling aspect of the matter is con.
sidered, foot ball has still the advan-
tage of pugilism, while in town and
college and club a~nimosities and
wrangling and wild excitement it is
infinitely worse than pugilism ever
could be.
Athletics are all right and proper in
colleges and in clubs and associations,
but there is need Of common sense in
all things. We have grown too sensi

brutality of this game would be to pro-.

Already two youths have all but lost
their lives in this insane development
of play in Chicago this fall, and how
many gnarled and disfgursd victims
there are nobody knows. What good
sense is there in all this?
The Greeks worshipped bodily beau.

grace, and they cultivated them with
a~ssiduity and success no other people

But they would have held foot ball
as we practice it to be a game for fools
or the device of some demon whose
