the Strain.

He Is Weary from the Strenuous Work
President McKinley's Letter to the
Business Mems Sound Money Club
Campaign Notes.


Roosevelt was shown a newspaper to.
day in which was published a rumol
that he was on the verge of collapse
from excessive work in the poltica
campaign. The governor good hu.
moredly said that his weight, and gener.
Il! appearances were sufficient denial
OF the report; adding that he was act
ually in the best health. 1t is believed
that the rumor arose from the fact that
the governor wrote to New York City
asking that he be excused from speak
ing on Saturday, and that the scheduled
trip through Long Island on Monday be
cancelled. The governor left here at 8
o'clock bound for Oswego with many
stops scheduled on the way.

ter was given out by Secretary Drake

Canton, Ohio, Nov. 1. - My Dear
Strong: Public duty will not permit me
IT, n'.t the invitation to review the
parade on November 8 of the organiza-
tions composing the Business Mems Re-
publican Sound Money Association. I
recall the inspiring demonstration of
four years ago and rejoice that now as
then, with undiminished rank, the citi-
zens of all parties are in line for nat
ional honor, public law, sound currency,
and industrial prosperity, and as in 1896,
are arayed against those who are incit-
ing class hatred and discomfort among
the people of our happy country We
know no class distinctions in this fair
land of ours. American people will per-
NIT no stain to be put upon the Ameri-
can name. May these marching free
men and their patriotic allies through
out the country stamp out for all time
in this republic the evils of reputation
and dishonor
Very sincerely yours,
WILLIAM MCKINLEY.
To Hon. VIM. L. Strong, President Bus
