DIR NEW PRESIDENT.

In the death of President W''am
Mex Nley the re;ns of government
have fallen into the hands of Theo-
dore Roosevelt. He is the Youngest
man, we believe, that has ever taken
upon himself this responsible trust
since the foundation of the govern
ment. His youth and fondnesS for
adventure have caused many to fear
that he is not fitted for the duties OF
an office having such power and
responsibility and such delicate rela-
tiOns with the variOuSfOreig powers.
But we should wait and Il q before We
come To such conclusion. He had IN
his lamented predecessor one of the
best examples as characterization
that the county, can boast Of The
administration of William Mckinley
was clean. generous and broad. He
was the President of even !, section of
the country and OF the whole people
His whole idea N ad mir STEERING the
affairs of the count : was to b, 'ugto
his people harmony, prosperity and
contentment, and he had in tbs effost
a greater measure of success thanany
of those whopreceded him. II weever
really had an era of good feeling
among the sections end genuine 10y
atty to the adm 1istratiOn il came
during the incumbency of the lata
President. He had the hearts and
affections of the wholepeople while he
was liv'0g, and now that he is dead
there is genuine sorrow and grief in
every American heart. Yea, th'Ssor-
row is more widespread-the civilized
world shares in this sorrow The
death of the President is a worldwide
calamity and it has brought world
vide sorrow.
We believe that the new President
WIN see in the administration ofafia IS
by his lamented chef not Or'y the
road to the aft ctions and confdenc-
of the people, but to greater harmony
among the SC ;tions of our own be-
loved land and to national greatness
and prosperity, and viii pursue that
safe and cOnse, vative course. Indeed
that was his declaration upon tai q
the oath of Office. I1spe1bi1g TO the
Cabinet he So d: an tbs hour of deep
and national bereavement / wish to
state that it shall be my aim to con
tinue absolutely and without vaiiG-
tion the policy of President Mex ley
for the peace nd prosperity and
honor of our beloved country"
If this he sha" do President RoOse
welt NAL e no mistake. On the
contrary he W I have the confidence
and suppOlt of the Anei can people,
and he w hold the position to which
we have attained under President
Mex 'U'ey-that of the leading nation
of the earth.

The SchleY Case.

The leading witness before the Schley

Admiral c. 5. Cotton, who commanded
the auxiliary cruiser Howard during the
war W ith Spain. The testimony hegave

the Nav Department WI be able to
bring against Admiral Schley.
The developments we, interesting and
inpOrta It. 1t was shown that Schley' &
dit patch to the Navy Depal .ment, N
which he expressed his regret at his IN
ability to obey the NAY. ! DepaI tme1s' s
orders, had been ''doctored,' so that its
texs as printed in the official appendix to
the report of the Secret9ry of the Navy
contained words that gave it a vely dit
ferent Interpretation 'Om tue langua.e

is a point II Schley's favor.

mauder of the dispat III boat Dupont

summoned as a witness for the Navy

That the Constitutional COnven-
ton s. ms disposed TO regard the
people as Incompetent to elect certain
officers must be rather CALLING to the
Virginia people. Some members of
the Norfolk Convention who had long
protested a desireforpoprlar election
OF officers WINGED when certa offices
were mentioned, and it looks very
much as if the ere cps are stealing over
some members of the Constitutional
body. 1t is hard to see why State
Treasurer should be chosen by the
people, State Auditor by the Legs
lature and a Secretary of the Com
monwealth by one MANTLE Cover
nor. TIE arg Imelt for such discrim-
nation has b. IN little, and of no
weight, so we are forced to conclude
that it is the old selfish proposition
as to whose tees are to be trod upon
that is sway ing some members OF the
Committee. We may be wrong i'll
such conclusions, and trust we are,
for the sake of the common veal, but
a study OF the matter-from reports
only, it is true, at tbs distance
impresses us strongly that personal
friendships and party (evenfactional)
policy are having more to do with
such things than is the impress OF
patriotism. Consistency should be
maintained throughout, and not for
a moment should a member of so
high a body lose sight of thefact that
he is legislating for the people of a
whole State, and, it may be, for a
generation of time.

Ne Appeal in czolgosz's Case.

Leon F. Czolgosz, in conversation with
his father ia Buffalo, denied that he had
an accomplice in the assassination OF
President Mckinley. The prisoner asked
nothing about the other members of his
family or his friends, aud did not give
e1y evidence OF sorrow or regret over his
act.
1t is safe to say that on October 2Sth
Leon f. Czolgosz, murderer OF resident
Mckinley, win have been shocked to
death in the electric chair at the Aubur n
prison. 1t was deemed possible that as
a matter OF form in conserving the rights
OF the prisoner, the defense might appeal.
1t was definitely Learned, however, that
there viii be no appeal.
Czolgosz was taken from Buffalo to
Auburn States prison TO await death by
ell ,trocutiOn.
