THE PRESIDENT is WEAK.
A Discussion of Mckinley by Prof.
George w. Harris.


To the Editor of The Post.
Fort Worth Texas. August 3.-The first
quality of good executive is strength.
The president should be strong man.
To execute the laws, which is his chief
duty, requires hrmness and courage. Let
us examine mir. McKinley's spinal column
in the light of his public acts.
"A general evidence of his weakness is
found in his veto record. The veto power
is a constitutional power, and, rightly
used. is a shield to both the constitution
and the people. Judge Story said: THE
danger is that it will no. be used enough"
MIR Cleveland made good use OF the veto,
vetoing more than 800 bills; but Mr.. Nc
kinney has vetoed less than half dozen.
ne veto Is our chief protection against
pension leg Station. NO patriot begrudges
the deserving. needy soldier mis- pension;
yet. IN view OF the fact that our pensions
last year amounted TO nearly SlAU, Got, JJU,
ana N view OF the further TACT tnaL tners
We're 4U,UUO new applicants last year, In
me insane Of all that is just. what Is 10
become of the taxpayer unless We aaye
iesluent Who has the courage TO strike
down his greedy monster or pAternalls IN

weakness IS tounu in his and Secretary
