Mckinley Believes In Forgiveness

In the Ladies' Home Journal an illus
trated anecdotal biography Of President
Mckinley is published. and among the
one by personal friend which goes to
prove the presidents Methodism and
to attest his quickness at repartee and
his love of humor. President Mckin-
ley has always shown the highest de-
gree of. generosity toward his political
opponents says the writer. while
governor of Ohio he was about to ap-
point to an exalted and lucrative office
a man who for many years had been his
ardent supporter, but who had deserted
him and gone over to the enemy at a
critical period. Later, when that criti-
cal period had passed, the deserter
slipped back into his party and re-
mained unnoticed until he became a
candidate for office. Many of Governor
McKinley's loyal friends earnestly
protested against his appointment.
They argued that the man had been a
traitor when he was most needed, and
that he was not entitled to considera-
ton. The Governors face lighted mp
with a smile, and taking his cigar from
between his lips, he remarked: Gen
tlemen, you seem TO forget that l am
a Methodist and believe in the doctrine

zone Of the Spanish fire.
THE Spaniards boast of II 900 infan-

will be able to muster over 5000. The
soldiers are drilling necessarily and ia

Washington, July S.-The war de-
partment officials express no surprise
at the action Of one OF the American
generals of Skaters army in refusing
to extend rations to some Of the Cubans
because they refused to do mental work
as required of them. While the desire
and purpose of the government is to
feed the Cubans who may need it, yet
this matter rests with the commanding
general. who unq~uestionably has the
right to withhold rations II for any
reason he deems such action necessary.
A separate account OF all food furnish
ed to the Cubans is to be kept by the
army officers, so that at the end OF the
war an intelligent statement OF the
subject may be given to the public.
