OF AN OLD VIRGINIA FAMILY.
Which Moved to Ohio in the First Decade
of the Century Character.


of the Century Character.
Nancy Mckinley came of a family
which was transplanted from England
to the hills of Virginia. Her maiden
name was Allison The Allison family
subsequently removed TO Green county,
Pa, where Abner Allison, Nancy's ia
Their, was born. and where he married
descent. Early in the present
century Mr.. and Mrs. Allison came
from Pennsylvania to Columbiana
county this state, travelling by pack
horses. In 1909, near the present city
of Lisbon, Nancy Allison was born Her
girlhood was passed on the farm and in
1927 she was married to William Nc
Kinley, young iron manufacturer
The couple lived first at Fairfield and
afterward at Niles and Poland, before
removing TO Canton.
Nine children were born to them.
They were David Allison, deceased;
Anna. deceased; James, deceased; Mary,
deceased; Helen Minerva, now living at
Canton; Sarah Elizabeth, now the wife
of Mr.. A. j. Duncan, OF Cleveland; Will
lam, the president; Abigail Celia, de-
ceased, and Abner, whose home is in
New York. William Mckinley, ST., died
in November, 1892, at the age of So
years
Mrs. Mckinley was distinctively a
home-loving woman, and the two-story
frame cottage in this city where she
died and where she had lived for many
years was dearer to her than than any
other spot on earth. There she spent
her declining days with her daughter
Helen and her grandchildren, Grace and
James Mckinley, receiving occasional
visits from her other children, seldom
going out except TO church, where she
could be found every Sunday morning
unless prevented by illness While
showing deep affection for her other
children she had naturally followed the
career of William with pride and
solicitude
During the memorable campaign OF
last year for the nomination and after
wards for the election Mrs. Mckinley
was one Of the most interested OBJ
servers She was always given the
place OF honor at the home of her i'll
lustrious son, and on the day of his
nomination by the ST. Louis convention
she heard the news as soon as he did
IL was then that William Mckinley
showed the love he bore his mother
by kissing her as soon as he had
received the announcement of the re-
suit at st. Louis. All through the try
ing campaign that followed she watched
after her son with deep interest.

STATEMENT AND A PREDICTION.
Ways and Means Chairman Takes n Hand
in Revenue Elucidation.

After few other members had spok-
en- briefly Dingley took the floor and
gave a new Interpretation of the esti-
lures, contending that the maximum
was reached in 1898, when the pension
payments reached $4,000 coo. In 1894
they were sl41. 100000. in 1895 s141 600, 900.
in 1896 1879 600, 900, and in 1897 Sal, 900, 900.
If the expenditures for pensions during
the next fiscal year should be $14S, 000,-
600, as has been estimated, the increase
would not be due to new legislation but
to more rapid administration of the
present laws. Ii would, therefore, in
volve no additional expense in the end.
The question as to the revenue and ex-
penditures for the next fiscal year was
a practical one which congress had to
face. The statement Of the secretary of
the treasury had caused much misap-
prehension, owing to the fact that un-
der a new provision of law he had been
obliged to include in the estimates of
expenditures $73, 900, 900 for public works
which neither he, nor the secretary of
war, nor any other well-informed per-
son believed would be expended.
Counting this the estimated deficit
would be 21,000,000. He violated no
confidence when he said that the sec
rotary OF the treasury and the presi-
dent were confident that the receipts
next year would exceed the expendi-
lures. Dingley said he took il for
granted that congress would exercise
reasonable economy. The estimated de-
felt for the present year. not counting
the money obtained and to be obtained
from Pacific railroads, was $685. 900, 900.
The anticipatory importations had
placed in the treasury before July $685.
600, 900. Those importations had reduced
thsdeficit last year from $50, 600 900 TO S1S
100000. 1nasmucR as the importations
were for consumption this year, Ding
ley contended that inequity that sum
should be properly charged to the re-
eipts OF the current year. IL they were
so charged. instead OF a deficit there
would be a surplus this year Of SIC. 000,-

Dingiey figured out a surplus of ex-
