GREELEY LOVED CHECKERS.
lie once Refused to See Throng OF
Politicians IN order To Play
a Game.

"My father had a curious experience
with Horace Greeley years ago, said
Mr.. Albert Caldwell of ST. Louis, spend.
ing few weeks in New Orleans, "and
the story has never been told in print.
1t was in the lively times just preceding
the Greeley Grant campaign. My father
was then living at Utica, \. l., and be-
came interested in some political
scheme--I don't know what about
which it was considered very important
to obtain Mr.. Greeley's advice. After
much consultation he was sent as u
committee of one to New York city 10
personally interview the great editor.
When he arrived he found il almost inn
possible to secure an audience. Greeley
was besieged by an army OF all kinds OF
people, big party leaders from here,
there and everywhere were constantly
flocking in to hold conferences. The
management Of the Tribune was still
on his shoulders on top of everything
else. and he found il necessary To bar
the way to his office by corps ofuuder-
lings and secretaries. My father tried
yainly for sc eral days TO run this
gnntlet, and at last he succeeded in
making an appointment. lie was greet
ed at the hour named by an assistant ed
itor, who took him aside and strongly
impressed upon him the necessity of
stating his case briefly and plainly. He
also limited that Greeley's temper was
none Of the best, and urged him TO con-
sumo as little time as possible. With
these iniunctions in his ear he was adj
mitted TO the inner sanctum. where he
discovered the editor seated alone at
large desk. For some moments
Greeley paid no attention TO him. but
seemed lost in thought Then he
turned abruptly: Aren't you n mem.
Der OF the Checker club at Utica?" he
asked. My father was greatly startled
by the irrelevancy of the question and
managed TO reply that he was. 'Hm-m!'
said Greeley. DO you play "A pretty
good game?' Fair said my father,
still more astonished. At that Greeley
opened drawer, took out a checker
set and invited my father TO be seated.
III try you game now, he said. They
PLAYED for about two hours, while the
crowd chafed and clamored outside.
According TO my fathers account they
tied and he won the rubber. During
the games Greeley never said word
about politics, and my father was 30 In
ferested, and dare say. so excited by
the novelty OF the situation. that he
clean forgot his errand until he was on

PEOPLE AND PRESIDENT.
HcI<inley's Course Characterised by
patriotism. Diplomacy and
sta tcsmunship.

With half his term behind him.
President Mckinley faces the Other
half confident of the consciousness of
the support and approval of his coun-
trymen. He has had to deal with mo-
mentous matters. Questions of import
have presented themselves for solution
and have been solved wisely and patri-
otically. other problems are before
him which he will meet in frank
bravery and dispose of with fearless
ability. That he will have free hand
in handling those matters Of immedi-
ate necessity coming up for considera-
ton in the near future gives the coun-
try no concern. Public faith in the
president is strong, popular confidence
firm. There is some partisan depreca-
ton, but that many thousands of his
fellow citizens outside his own party
trust Mr.. McKinley's wisdom and pa
triotism completely is beyond success
full controversy. In evidence is offered
as an example this excerpt from the
Brooklyn Daily Eagle, democratic;
I'm 1896 the question was Mckinley or
Bryan. Most Americans. we are sure are
glad II was Mckinley. He had the ex-
periencc In congress and the experience
I'm politics which enabled him to obtain nee
cessary legislation In great emergency
He had the knowledge OF men which en-
abled him to put at every point OF peril or
of emergency agents who were equal 20
what was required OF them. He has had
the conciliatory. yet firm, the quiet, yet in
eistent. temper which has enabled him TO
have his way at last. by permitting all 9TH
ers 10 have their say at the first. lie has
wisely used. on well chosen occasions,
rare capacity for luminous public state
ment and for moral appeal TO the people
who have made up their minds In his favor
against oil criticism and casuistry and as
persion. lie has maintained the organiza-
ton OF his party intact, and he has estab-
lished for himself hold on the homes and
hearts OF plain Americans that cannot be
mistaken. and that can wel!-ngh be COM
pared to the hold which Abraham Lincoln
himself had under circumstances anal
ogous TO those In which Mr. Mckinley has
been placed"
II Is an evidence of good Judgment
rs well as good feeling, that this demo-
cratic authority so frankly bears testl-
mony 20 the presidents fine character.
The Eagle speaks the truth-no more,
no less. Yet IL is something 20 find
democratic paper dealing so fairly with
a political opponent.
The latter half Of President NcKin-
ley's term will but emphasize the teach
ing Of the first half that in statesman
ship, diplomacy. patriotism and execu-
tive ability he is worthy the great
trust the American people have re-
posed In him. He represents Amer
icanism. In that will they indorse
him, partisan opposition TO the
contrary notwithstanding -Cincinnati
