Private Mckinley at Buffalo
New York Press.)

William Mckinley is the first of the
many soldier presidents of the United
States who ever served as a private
soldier in the ranks, if we except Lin
coins brief and not particular episode
experience in the Black HawK war.
Washington began as captain and aid.
Monroe was a lieutenant originally.
Andrew Jackson an elective militia
major-general, w. II. Harrison an en-
sign, Taylor and Grant respectively a
regular army captain and lieutenant.
Pierce went to the Mexican war New
Hampshire brigadier. Hayes, Garfield
and Harrison also went out with COM
missions. Arthur, though scarcely a
soldier president, was quartermaster
general, and an efficient one, on Gov.
Morgan's staff. Only in President Nc
Kinley's case have hands that once
"toted" the musket come to take the
helm of state. The chances in war of
a Napoleonic soldier with "his baton in
his knapsack" were meager beside this
accomplishment of Buckeye soldier
in peace.

Notwithstanding the fact that wheat
has gone up to SI.00 bushel, a figure
that ought to satisfy any ordinary farm
err, in view of what S1.00 will buy, yet
many of the farmers of the West, with
their large crops are holding on to their
stock, looking for higher prices still.
They may get it, but this is very un.
certain, from the fact that conditions
are such in the speculative market,
that men like cold Hutch" can bear
themarket and force prices down al
their own sweet will, in order that they
may rake in Il million or two. Such
things haYe been done and can be done
again.

DROPS a COG,

Interest at 81 cents is what depositors
in Detroit banks get in the future.
At a meeting in Detroit lately where
nearly all the prominent banks were
represented, it was agreed that 81 per
cent was all they could afford to pay
depositors for their holdings. This
would indicate there is plethora of
money in that city at present. 1t
might be very interesting to another
class of men in our community, the
borrowers, to know if they are going
to get reduction in interest they have
to pay. Pass the good things round

CAN'T PLEASE EVERYBODY.

President Mckinley and party gave
the city of Cleveland great surprise
last week, arriving there at an hour
they were not expecting. Some tall
kicking was INDUCED in by several of
the leading Clubs because they did not
get chance to show their loyalty. A
few smiles, however, from the amiable
President cleared off all the wrinkles
and everything soon became serene.

The Voice of Peace.

President McKinleys brief speech at
the Grand Army banquet in Buffalo
last week was characteristic of the man
and of the occasion. No more felici-
tous utterance could have escaped his
lips. 1t was earnest, timely, eloquent
and hopeful, and through it all there
ran the fervid spirit of patriotism in
which, at every Grand Army encamp-
ment. American institutions receive a
new baptism of loyalty and love. The
presidents remarks disclosed the high
est ideal of American unity and broth
erhood, and in these strong, clear words
he voiced the prophecy of national
peace and progress:
"The army of Grant and the army of
Lee are together. They are one now
in faith, in hope, in fraternity i'll pur-
pose and in an invincible patriotism,
And, therefore, the country is i'll no
danger. In justice strong, in peace
secure, and in devotion TO flag all one.
In this utterance the country has
another token of the thoroughly nation
al spirit and aspiration which animates
President McKinley's administration.
In the echoes of that sentiment the
clash of factions, the contentious of
sections and the petty rivalries Of par
ties and party leaders are silent and
meaningless. In all their manifold
usefulness these Grand Army encamp-
ments render no service more salutary
than that of bringing the chief execu-
tive into fraternal association with his
old comrades, and thus enabling him to
join his voice with theirs in pledging
new allegiance to the nation for which
their yalor has won the priceless bless
ings of unity, fraternity and honorable

PATHETIC SCENE.
The Sentencing of a Woman Who Had
Murdered Her Husband With Pol
son---ImpriSOned for Life.

San Francisco, February l9.-The
mail and the cabin passengers of the
steamer China were landed this after
noon. The japanese Gazette Of FebTu-
ary 5. contains an account OF the con-
yictiOn and sentence TO death, and later
the Communication to imprisonment FOR
life of Edith May HallOwell Carew. for
the murder of her husband. The paper
says:
Never has so solemn and impressive
a scene enacted in a consular court IN
Yokohama as that which on Monday
afternoon closed the last public act OF
the Carew tragedy, so far as concerns
the unfortunate lady now convicted OF
murder. The intensity of feeling that
manifested itself at the outset was al
layed somewhat by the calm, stately
tone Of the Judge as he delivered with
terrible lucidity the crushing argu-
ments of his charge. The jury was out
forty-fve minutes and when the verdict
of guiltv was given the silence that en-
sued was terrible. The face of the ac-
cused woman became overspread with
ghastlv dull blue tint, the lines OF her
Iips changed TO chalky white; her
ewes assumed the look Of an animal
stricken TO death; her hands clutched
convulsively at the dock. Asked
whether she had anything 10 say why

Gen. Gomez has over 5000 good so.-

GERMANY IS RESENTFUL.
The Emperor DIspleased by Sallsburys Re
fusal to Is ockade the Port Of Athens.

Berlin, February 19.-The newspa-
pers of this city reflect the bitter resent
ment felt by Emperor William at the
rejection by the Marquis of Salisbury
CT his majesty's personal proposal to
coerce Greece by joint blockade Of the
port of Athens, by the fleets or the
powers in order to check the war-llhe
demonstrations Of Greece.
The Emperor's proposal caused great
surprise in diplomatic circles, as 1t was
generally assumed that he would not
oppose the Greek pretensions in regard
to Crete, owing to his sister, SOPHIA,
being the wife of the Duke Of Sparta,
the crown prince of Greece. But II ap-
pears that there has long been an aD-
solute estrangement between the en-
peror and his sister, arising from old
time quarrels, and his majesty, in addl-
ton, never has been Over-Irlendly to
the royal family Of Greece.
In diplomatic circles it Is surmised
that Emperor William dignity was IN
jured in some manner, probably by the
firm attitude assumed by Greece in the
face of the remOnstrances Of the pow
ers, of Germany in particular. and
hence the extreme proposal to block
ade the Piraeus, which was urged by
his majesty with unusual vehemence,
through the ambassadors here, upcn
the European cabinets.
TIE Marquis OF Salisbury without any
hesitation promptly declined the en-
peror's proposition, saying that the pub
lie opinion in Great Britain would never
acquiesce to such a policy.
The National Zeitung makes direct
charges against the British of attempt
ing to disturb the peace Of Europe and
says: The immediate future Will
show whether the agreement OF the
powers will be disturbed by a manifes-
tatiOn of separate British interests
which promises to raise the veil hither-
to shrouding the origin Of the extreme
ly strange Greek adventure. From the
outset we have been of the opinion that
it was not so much to attack Turkey
as to strike a blow at European peace. W

THE ARBITRATIoN TREATY.
Senator Sherman's Efforts to Secure a Vote
Proved Unavailing.

Washington, February 19.-The Sem
ate adjourned at SIS o'clock tonight,
after having spent almost eight hours
in continuous executive session on the
arbitration treaty. No result was ac-
complished beyond voting on the mo-
tion made yesterday by Senator Nell
son to postpone further consideration
of the treaty until March 5th.
Senator Sherman made repeated eff
forts during the day to secure a vote
on ratification or to get the Senate to
fix day or hour when it would agree
to vote upon the treaty. He was de-
feated in both purposes, and when the
Senate at last adjourned, because of the
absence of a quorum he did not say
whether he would make another effort
tomorrow or again this session to Sc
cure further consideration, but it is
generally supposed that he will renew
the motion for an executive session to-
morrow.
