Robert Davis Association got together
and framed the following memorial
The death of President Mckinley, 20
sudden and so. shocking, excites the
deepest sorrow among all his country
men.
At the head of our great nation, on
the fulness of his powers, at time pf
profound peace, surrounded by his ac-
claiming friends and fellow c1t1zel1s
he is stricken down by the foul hand
of the assassin.
So cruel, SO undeserving fate must
surely move the pity of the world.
William Mckinley was man OF the
highest personal character, devout
Christian, sincere patriot an aHec-
tionate husband, typical American
Around his bier there is no place fpr
politics but we who differed with him
politically desire to bear this testimony
to our appreciation of his virtues ard
to our grief and horror at his untimety
and tragic taking off.
Under instructions from DR.. john d
McGill, President of the Board of Police
Commissioners, all the station houses IN
the city were draped in mourning lats
Saturday afternoon.
The decorating of houses in the Green
vile section was continued Saturday
afternoon and evening and when Sunday
dawned the profuse display of crepe ana
flags showed plainly the sorrow OF tne
residents. Everywhere the stars ana
stripes were to be seen at half mast.
Many families that did not possess fags
bought them Saturday evening especially
to honor the dead President. 1t was
common sight to see women and children
carrying flags home on returning from
their Saturday night shopping trips.
Perhaps the first flag that was raised
at half-mast in this city on Saturday,
and probably in the State, was at Column
bia Hall, Gator and Ocean avenues,
Greenville Joseph Kaiser, the proprie-
tor, raised the flag on the hall at exactly
230 o'clock Saturday morning, flfteen
minutes after the Presidents death. lie
received the news from the Fifth Pre-
c:nct Police Station across the way, to
which place it had been telephoned as
soon as it reached Police Headquarters
down town. Among the first to do the
President last honor, Mr. Kaiser, like
all other patriotic citizens, sincerely re-
grets the nations loss.
Early this morning men were at work
draping downtown business buildings.
Over the doorways in the Pennsylvania
Railroad depot leading to the ferries
there is dark cloth, and the windows in
the waiting room are similarly treated.
The entire front of the main shed facing
the river will be covered with emblems OF
mourning by tomorrow. The Commercial
Trust Company building is tastefully
draped, as well as the Real Estate Trusts
Company's building, Nelson & Wards and
John E. Mu1lers insurance offices and
the Imperial Hotel, Exchange place.

At THE COURT HOUSE
Justice Collins Feelingly
Speaks Of the Dead Presi-
dent--No Court To-
morrow or
Thursday.

Sonbre black covers the pillars of the
Court House and the flag of the old tenn
pie of justice on the Hill floats at half
mast as a token of respect for the MEM
ory of the dead President.
Freeholder Kelly, Chairman of the Com
mittee on Public Grounds, Court House
and Jail, has also had the office of the
Board suitably draped
Justice Collins, in speaking of the death
of the President this morning said: "Of
course we all feel the immediate bereave-
ment as we would of dear friend. 1t is
too early to make calm estimate of Mr..
Mckinleys character and public services.
He seems to have had personality that
won the affections of the entire American
people and his private life has endeared
him to everyone His devotion to his wife,
his calm fortitude and consideration for
others from the time he was wounded un-
til death claimed him are evidences of the
qualities that made him so loveable. l
think that when time enough has passed
for maturity of judgment, Mr.. McK1nley's
place in history will be that of a Pres!-
dent who gave effect to the popular senti
ment of his time rather than one VINO
formed opinions. In other words, his pol
icy and. measures were those that he saw
with great sagacity what was desired by
the country.
Judge Henry M Nevius of the Circuit
Court said this morning, in speaking of
the Presidents death:-"A great and good
man has been slain. 1t is a terrible af-
Fiction and trial to the nation" He said
he first learned of the death of the Chief
Executive at Scranton, Pa, when re-
turning from the, G. A. r. convention.
Judge Blair of the Court of General
Sessions this morning announced that
owing to the death of the President there
would be no court tomorrow or on Thurs
day, the day of the funeral. The Bar
Association will meet at the Court House
tomorrow to take action on the death of
the Chief Executives

WHAT DOES 1T MEAN

The whole town is in doubt as to the
meaning of Governor Voorhees, procla-
nation touching the holiday on Thursday
out of respect for the funeral of the late
President. 1t is by no means clear
whether the Governor means it a legal
holiday or not, and this Is very confusing
to lawyers, bankers and others. The pre-
vailing opinion is that if it be the Cover

then the Attorney General will have to be

THE EDUCATIONAL TEST.
Richmond News, Dem.

Richmond News, Dem.
The election law rushed through the
Maryland Legislature by the Democrats is
likely to be boomerang. 1t is expected
that the law, which makes a rigid educa-
tiona test, will disfranchise 200 negroes
and 16, 600 white men. The white men to
be disfranchised, it is thought, will make
"stand off," about half of them being Re.
publicans.
In the first place, as matter of politics,
the Acknowledgement law will give pow
erful tool to demagogues. 1t may be esti-
mated safely that each white man de-
prived of a vote because of bis inability to
read has at least two near relatives or con-
nections or near friends who will resent
the degradation put upon him and vote
and work to have his civil rights restored.
There is ample opportunity for powerful
sentimental appeals in behalf of the pro-
scribed class. When stump speakers
stand up in the country districts and cry
as many of them have the faculty of doing
over the wrongs of the poor white man
and deliver frery invectives against class
determinations the results of their demon
strations are likely to be manifested al the
polls in startling figures.
