Independent Estimate Of Mckinley.
Washington qnd.l Post: That Mr..
Mckinley would be renominated was a
foregone conclusion. Logic and senti-
ment were in gigantic conspiracy to
that end. No one else has been thought
OF since the declaration Of war against
Spain. No one else could have been
thought OF by any honorable and con-
acientious Republican. Under Mr.. Nc
Kinley's rule, the nation has entered
upon what promises 20 be the most
momentOus episode In all Its history,
and, even now, we have scarcely cross
ed the threshold Of the immeasurable
evolution which was set in motion two
years or more ago. Even though the
party were without gratitude or loyalty,
mere selfish prudence would have COM
PEELED II to retain the leader who has
thus far guided US with courage and
wisdom, with u pure heart and with
spotless hands,
There is more than this, however, In
the spontaneous action which the Re-
publican party has Just taken. Mr..
Mckinley has not only commanded the
respect and confidence OF his immediate
followers; he has appealed with singu-
lar force to the sympathy and affection
of all classes and conditions Of his fell
low-countrymen. The American people
believe in the purity Of his purpose and
the nobility Of his impulses and desires.
Millions will vote against him, but they
will abate nothing Of their personal af-
lection and esteem. Not one Will wish
him III or speak a word to his dlscredlt
as man. He has endeared himself to
the whole country by the exhibition OF
those attractive attributes which make
men beloved In all lands and ages
kindness. sympathy, humane, and gen
erous instincts. And, most important
Of all, he has illustrated in his private
life the domestic virtue and simplicity
which the American people hold in I'M
dying reverence and admiration.
Certainly the Republican party could
have found no stronger candidate. In
deed, at such time as this, the leader
ship OF any other man would plunge the
Republican organization into irremedI-
able disaster.

Wayne defeated Wheeling to-day in
one OF the prettlest games played this
season. The visitors objected to u de-
clslon by Umpire Carputhers, giving
Harper safe at the home plate, lnas-
much as the batter interfered with the
throw to the plate by Rothermelttcaus-
ing Ritter TO miss an easy out, which
virtually cost the game. Several other
decisions ut first base kept the visitors
from scoring. 1t is to be regretted that
Wheeling kindly consented to the trans
fer of these games. which were sched-
uled at Wheeling to receive such. raw
deal. and should be sufficient reason
for not consentlng to another transfer
