CANNON FALLS, Mimi, Oct. 14-(Spe-
cial.)-Immediately after the death of
President Mckinley meeting of the
citizens of this place was held for the
purpose of taking appropriate action.
Memorial services were held Upon the
day of the funeral, at which resolutions
We're adopted in relation to his life and
services A committee was appointed to
draw up resolutions in regard to the
crime, to be submitted at mass meeting
to be held Oct. IA. At a well attended
meeting tonight the committee reported
the following resolutions, which were
unanimously adopted:
Whereas, A great crime has been COM
united against the peace and dignity of
the United States in the assassination of
President William Mckinley, and
Whereas, This crime affects every citi-
zen Of the republic, the people of Cannon
Fails, Mimi, have assembled in mass
pressing their horror of the crime and TO
assist in creating public sentiment
against the doctrine of anarchy or the
teaching that there ever can be any ex-
cuse for resort to assassination or force
In self-governing republic.
A republic, or government of the peo-
pie, is founded on law; we are governed
by statutes and not by personal will:
consequently, it follows that the Stability
OF the republic is secured in proportion to
the respect which the people have for the
laws which they themselves have
1t therefore behooves every loyal Amer
lean citizen to be a stern and just up
holder of the law and to demand that
the law in its form and spirit shall be
enforced in all cases, and that there shall
not be any resort to lynch law, so-called,
Which we condemn as SubVersiVe of all
social law and order.
Whereas. The crime was committed
against the president Of the United States
in his official capacity, we believe that
the time has come for the enactment of
extraordinary measures for the preven-
ton of such crimes in the future, in or
der that the chief executive of this ma
ton may be secure In his person, and
this country may not again be disgraced
by such crimes. Therefore, be it
Resolved, That we urge upon our SEN
ators and representatives in congress to
use their best endeavors for the enact
ment of such laws as shall prohibit the
landing of any anarchist on our shores.
Also for the enactment of such laws
as shall punish by fine CT imprisonment
any person convicted of advising the as
Sassination of the president CT the United
States, or the chief executive or ruler of
any foreign country, by any person in
any place or public meeting or in any
newspaper, book, pamphlet, handbill or
by any other publication.
Resolved. That any person in the
United States and not citizen thereof
who has publicly declared himself to be
an anarchist in favor of the removal of
the executives of the law by force or as
sassination, or proven by witnesses to
have expressed himself as favorable to
such doctrine, shall, upon conviction, be
deported to the country whence he came
Resolved, That copy of these resolu-
lions be sent to each of the United
States senators for Minnesota and to the
congressman for the Third congressional
district.
