AS forecast in our last issue, Presi-
dent Mckinley, when in Peoria, ILL.,,
was the guest of Joseph B. Greenhut,
the boss distiller and ex-President of
the whiskey trust. Language could
hardly express more forcibly than the
acts of Mr.. Mckinley are declaring,
his utter contempt for the desires, pc
titions and purposes of churchmen.
The saloon is power in politics. Who
crosses it's path does so at his peril.
But Mr.. Mckinley has as yet had lit
tie reason to think it worth his while
to reckon with the religious bodies
which resolve and petition and some
times threaten. He knows that to
date most of those who vote for these
declarations, and of the millions whom
they represent, have also voted for the
candidate and party that spurned
them, especially if the former was a
member of "our church"

praise, with look of anxiety ana de-
termination in behalf of the tens OF
thousands of soldier boys and the mil
lions of Cubans, Porto Ricans, Alas
kans, Hawaians and Filipinos who are
being ruined by his damnable sa-
loon and canteen policy. But we
insist that those who can so
glibly name the sacrifices which he
ought to make should themselves be
willing to make thousandth part as
great sacrifices. Every man who
urges that the President perform his
duty as President should perform his
duty as citizen. Every argument
why Mr.. Mckinley should abolish the
canteen proves that those who advance
it should have voted for the outlawry
of the villainous liquor traffic, and
having failed to do SO, should now line
up with those who battle against this
monstrouS wrong. Every sigma
ture to an anti-canteen petit
ton is the signature of man who
should record vow before angels and
men that, God helping him, he will
never again give his ballot to any can
| didate of any party which, when in
power, leaves the saloon in existence
| With such citizenry, it will be easy
| to find a President who will dare to do
right, for it will then be political sui
eide to do wrong.

rlcKinley not Alone Responsible.

President Mckinley has been sharp
ly and widely criticized, first, for his
failure to abolish the canteen by the
use of his prerogative as Commander
second, for allowing his Attorney
General to set aside the anti-canteen
provision of the Army bill. We believe
he richly deserves all the criticism
heaped upon him and more. Yet he
should not be made a scapeg goat for
the sins or shortcomings of other
people.
1t is a great honor to be President of
this great nation of seventy million
people. To be selected from this great
mass of men to rule over them, to re-
ceive their plaudits, to have ones
every act heralded far and wide and
ones portrait displayed on every side;
to shape the destinies of the nation
and to have ones name go down into
history as the foremost, if not the only
one generally remembered, may we'll
stir the ambition of the least ambitious
and fill to the full the heart of one who
loves the praise of men.

No man can reasonably be expected
to forego all this honor, to say nothing
of the princely salary and the other
still greater emoluments attaching tc
this office, in defense of principle OF
to protect the unprotected, unless he
be a. man possessed of high sense Of
honor, one who, in the depths of hi:
soul, has put right before popularit!
and prefers the favor of God to thu
praise of men. The temptation to trim
and compromise, to sell ones soul /
