piece Of the iron, weighing between 200
and 300 pounds. was hurled through the

Other pieces of the wheel flew in Vari-
Gus directions, tearing out one side of the
brick building and landing on the rail-
road track near by. Another piece crush

There were quite a number OF people
in the works at the time of the accident

TOMMIROT,

1t is stated with patriotic boasting
and fol de rol that the suit of clothes
that Major Mckinley will wear at his
inauguration will be made wholly of
American material by American work
men.
An Eastern manufacturer is now
making of wool Clipped from the back
of American sheep a piece of cloth just
large enough for one suit. The cloth
will be sent to Major McKinley's tailor
and will be made into a suit in which
all the material will come from Ameri-
can shops.
This flub-dubbery disgusts the St.
Louis Republic, which suggests that
under the system of protection for
which Mckinley was responsible the
representative American suit was
made of shoddy; and that he ought to
stick TO this material in his inaugural
outfit. Democratic reform has made
it possible to get an all-wool American
suit for the apostle of protection, al
though the price is still high.
But the President elect should not
stop with an American suit in taking
the stage as the representative Of
Americanism. His syndicate manager
did not hesitate to appropriate the
American flag and degrade it to the
uses of politics. Major Mckinley
should elaborate the idea and have a
-white-and- blue shirt and collar,
with bandana handkerchief to match.
The typical American head-gear is the
coon-skin cap. A coon-skin cap, pair
of Uncle Sam boots and the great seal
of State for watch charm would COM
plete a costume which would be cal
culated to fire the American heart with
patriotic pride.
When a statesman starts out to be
the typical American he ought to go
the whole typical hog. Major McKin-
ley taking the oath of Office in the role
of Uncle Sam, clothed in American
garments and decorated with the
American flag, would offer fitting eli
max to the Observation-Disclosures
campaign of the Hanna syndicate and
an appropriate introduction to the Sc
quel when the syndicate rules the
country.
