SAFETY OF PRESIDENT.
Senator Depew Says His Life Is Need
lessIy Wrecked.


lessly Wrecked.
Commenting upon the act OF the as
sassin at Buffalo Senator Depew. of
New York, said:
.It is singular that the United States,
possessing the freest government the
world has ever known, its presidents,
with the exception of Washington, all
having come from the humber condi-
tions and the tenure in the chief magis-
tracy ending in four years, in thirty six
years three of them should have been
assassinated. Autocratic Russia is a
hotbed of conspiracy against the czars.
yet only one ruler in Russia has been
numbered in the period covering the life
of the American republic. The 600 years
of the Hapsburg house and nearly as
many of the Hohenzollern dynasty have
been free from the tragedy of assassina-
ton Only one member of the house of
Savoy. King Humbert, fell under the
assassin's hand. The English throne
has been free from these crimes for L.
600 years. In France in thirty years
one of her presidents has been assassi-
mated; with the exception of Henry IN.
none of her kings or emperors. The inn
munity of rulers of continental Europe
is ascribed to the care of guards. There
are no special precautions surrounding
the movements and residences of the
English sovereign.
THE murder of Lincoln was not the
act of an anarchist and was as deeply
regretted by the south, whose wrongs
Booth thought he was avenging, as by
the north. Had Lincoln lived the recon-
struction of the south on lines satisfac-
tory to its intelligence would have come
much sooner The assassination OF a
ruler has always defeated the purpose
of the attack by intensifying the power
of the government assailed. The assas-
sination of Garfield was the crime of an
addle- drained egotist seeking notoriety,
without accomplices or synpathizers.
And yet we can trace Guiteaus' crime to
the intense passions of factional strife
of the period.
president Mckinley was the most be-
loved of our presidents. Beyond any of
them, he possessed the affection of the
whole American people. Parties and
partisanship had ceased to have any en-
nifty toward him personally. He was
rot only the best friend of the working
man and the wage-earner who ever
filed the place of ruler of a great coun-
try, but they all knew it and so regarded
him. Notwithstanding these facts this
most popular of presidents fell victim,
to a conspiracy. His death was brought
about as result of teachings of po-
l!tical school which, SO far as they dare,
approve and applaud the crime.
The conditions which give compara-

Will Give No Details or Reasons for
His Crime.


Buffalo, Sept. 20.-The Courier this
morning prints the following:
whats the use of talking about
anarchist and simply did my duty.
That's all I'll say"
Leon F.. Czolgosz, the assassin of
President Mckinley said those words
today to Frank Olozonowski, editor Of
Buffalonoski, Polish newspaper, but
would say nothing further about the
crime, while willing to talk freely about
lother subjects. Olozanowski paid his
second visit to, the assasstn's cell. He
was sent by the district attorney in
pursuance of vain efforts to move the.
prisoners stubborn tongue. Last week
|Olozanowski was unsuccessful. He went
again today.
"Czolgosz talked on every other sub
ject suggested" said he. His con-
versation would have been entertaining
coming from man other than the
presidents assassin. He talked on the
Polish alliance and a variety of other
subjects, but when spoke of his crime
he merely said: What's the use of
talking about that. / killed the presi-
dent, / am an anarchist. simply did
my duty; that's all I'll say.
"Czolgosz spoke earnestly and deter
minedly. 1 tried him several ways, but
he would not add woru to his dec
llaratIon I don't believe any one has
any more from him about the crime.
Czolgosz is intelligent and don't be-
ilieve he will tell more"
The closest watch is being kept on
iCzolgosz and the sheriff's officers also
seem bent on aiding the prosecution by
getting admissions from the prisoner,
but so far they have been unsuccessful.
The prisoner talks on ordinary subjects
occasionally, but will not talk at all on
subjects leading up to the assassination
of the president. When questioned in
that relation Czolgosz resumes his stub
horn silence

NORTH CAROLINA POLITICS.

Senator Pritchard Predicts Political
Upheaval in the State.
Washington, Sept. Ex-senator Prit-
chard, of North Carolina, one of the
personal friends of President Mckinley,
is also an admirer of President Roose-
Welt, for he said yesterday:
II think Mr.. Roosevelt. will make an
exemplary president. He has great
many friends in the south, and has had
the for years. Since the declaration to
the effect that he proposed to enforce
the plans formulated by the late presi-
dent. however his friends there have In
creased many fold, and the southern
people generally are disposed to lend
him their hearty support. The people
there feel that Mr.. Roosevelt has occu-
pied every position he has been called
upon to fill with credit, both to him
self and to his constituents, and feel
cure that he will be supported by a
united party in his ayowed policy of
maintaining the financial integrity of
the nation, both at home and abroad.
and keeping the country at the high
standard OF excellence it has attained
since the first Inauguration of Mr.. Nc
Kinley.
In speaking of the local political con-
ditlons in North Carolina, Mr. Pritchard
said:
"There will be no elections in the old
North state until 1902. 1t is apparent
now, however. to even the most super
fetal of observers, that a great political
revolution is In formation there. Bust-
ness men of North Carolina see that the
republican party is the organization
which stands for progress, enlighten-
ment and every other principle which
means good to the nation. A meeting
of the business men OF Franklin county
was held some weeks ago at which res
olutions-were adopted expressing the
opinion that it would be best to desert
the old, blind, antiquated democratic
party and enter the ranks of the more
vigorous and substantial. A business
mems republican league has been
formed and It's membership is constant
ly growing. All this means the dig
memberment of the solid South.
I'm my judgement we now have a
better chance of carrying North Caro-
lima than any southern state in the un-
ion. The detection from the democratic
ranks is due largely to a realization Of
tective tariff policy are necessary to the
stability of the country and Its business
interests. The south is growing, and the
policy of protection, combined with
sound money, has been the cause for its
expansion. This dual policy must be
continued and the business men know
Again. the state legislature at its last
session passed several laws which are
highly obnoxious to the people Among
them was revenue act, which has
proved to be exceedingly oppressive to
the bushes interests, especially corpor-
ations There has been great revul-
sion of feeling against this measure.
This sentiment contributes largely to
the amount of dissatisfaction with the
democratic party and its doctrine exist
ing In the state. The business men are
concluding that it is time to act"
| Senator Pritchard vii participate in
the gubernatorlal campaign in Ohio
during the coming autumn He will
leave for the field in October.

ton in regard to the telephone business
is not what 1t ought to be- In fact, the
Iowa legislation on telephones was made
before the business had begun to devel-
cp. The efforts of the people to secure

of money and energy as in the accom-
plishment of the ends sought. There is
Il movement started to secure legisla-

Intention OF President Roosevelt to re-
