A POPULAR PRESIDENT.

1t is evident that President McKin-
popular with the people, He has al
ways been noted as a genial man whom
it was pleasant to meet. Already he
has dispensed with a body guard and
has abolished the exclusive day at the
White House. These two things ap-
peal to the popular Imagination and
meet with popular approval But he
has done a still more popular thing
Last Sunday afternoon he went out
for short walk with a friend. The
streets were filed with pedestrians,
many of whom recognized him. None
of the presidents since General Grants
second term have made it a practice
to go out for a walk unattended. Cen
eral Grant was always free and easy
in his intercourse with the people, and
it did much to endear him to them
The, tragic fate of Garfield had a
strong tendency to make his success
sors rather shy about going out much
unattended. Perhaps this was natu-
raj, but the people still prefer the man
who will take all risks and go about
as other citizens do. It makes them
feel that the president is one of them.
And it is proper that he should go
among them without fear or restraint.
If any crank is bent upon doing the
president an injury, it would be as
easy for him to do it at the White
House on a public reception day as
i'm q abroad daoof
1t is a pleasant thought to an Amer
lean citizen that the chief executive
of the nation can go among the peo-
pie, mingle' with them, be of them.
The president who does these things
cannot fail to gain great popularity
and to endear himself to the people.
They are far prouder Of such a man
than of one who holds himself aloof
from them. The United States are a
republic and not a monarchy; the
president is chosen from the people by
the people, and he should always be
of them. When it becomes necessary
for him to surround himself with body
guards there is a feeling that it isn't
just as it should be in a republic If
President Mckinley will but continue
to take walks as other American citi-
zens do. he cannot fail to make him
self personally popular with the whole
peOple
