| gard that doughty warrior from the

plans Of campaign. and, in connection
with the embalmed beef scandal OF
/ miestatements and the needless fo-
menting If diseord.
lie regards General Shafter with fav-
or, and considers that the bouncing ac-
tivity and supernatural alertness of
that wiry commander in the Santiago
campaign were too splendid to mention
But another party to the proceedings

aealed hostility. Admiral-then Captain
Sampson. he criticises severely for
the sinking of the Merrimac, for asking
the army to take the heights above the
harbor for him, so that the Spanish
ships could be drop-shotted from the
hills, and for seeming to be afraid of
alleged mines in the channel.
Thisinteresting book emphasizes the
statement that the Rough Riders did
not join the infantry in the charge on
San Juan hill, but assaulted San Juan
ridge, to the right of that position, af
ter the Hill had been cleared by the in
fantry and part of the cavalry brigade.
Naturally the celebrated round robin
comes in for its share of the general
condemnation. Mr.. Alger asserts that
it disclosed condition of affairs at
the front which easily might have put
an end to the peace negotiations then
in progress between the United States
and Spain. i is understood that some
changes have been made in the text
since Colonel Roosevelt became Presi-
dent of the United States. Whatever
in the work, as it will be published,
which is intended to slur the President

largely to inference.

elected not 10 do So. and we fancy that
he has reused the dogs with vicious
and inexcusable kick However, since
he has invited a general reopening of
the subject of his career, his Connec-
ton with the war scandals, and espa-
cially that of the rotten beef. he will

should be made lively for him. And We
eel pretty certain that they will be.

4 Tribute to the Late President.

In an article printed in the current
number of The American Monthly Re
view of Reviews" Mr.. Henry B f.
Macfarland, Pre"ident of the Board of
Commissioners 9f the District of CO.
lumbia. pays q beautiful tribute to the
noble life and Christian character of
the late President Mckinley. Next to
the personal and official families of the
| lamented President. it probably woulI
beimpossibIe to find in the city OF Wash
| ingten anybody more familiar with the
inner life of Mr.. Mckinley, than Mr
Macfarland. For years the relations
between the two We're cordial and I'll
mate-so much so, that it is well known
that when Mr.. MaCfaTland was APPOINT
/ ed to the important post he still holds
the then President did not conceal the
fact, that in making the selection. he
had gratified his wish TO place the mead
ship of the District Commission in the
hands of a trusted friend, upon whom
he could rely TO fill the position with
zeal. integrity, and equity. Evidently
the preparation Of the article To which
we have referred. and which IS entitled
The Character of william Mckinley"
has been labor of love. A more sweet
and gentle benediction has rot been
pronounced above the ashes Of the ia
TONS martyr We may say. also, that
a finer model of English prose han the
short paper in question would b. hard
to find in current literature. 1t begins
with these words:
Death in its most dramatic form has sudden
l. removed President Mckinley as though 10 a
century distance IN historical perspective. But
yesterday he was man ike other men: today
he Is numbered among the lmnurtals. One of
the oOIf~olations and Compensatiuns TO hi,
friends is that he has, in the tWiukling O.
au eye. been placed beside Washington and
Lincoln the greatest OF his predecessors tn,
assassin has done Tor him what all his friends
could not do in bringing him beyond the power
Of ennity or accident. The arduuus greatness OF
things done Is now admitted 20 have been his
and the greater greatness Of noble living. lie
has been canonizcd by the united love OF an the
people; the very thing which he in a high sense
coveted most that in his death hc realized
lis greatest ambition, which 10 break down
all sectional barriers and bring all his country
men into sympathy"
OF Mr. McKinley's career his eulo-
gist says: Now that he is gone, and
in such a way that we can almost take
the historians view Of him. We can
see the consistency Of McKinleys life
through all its extraordlary expert
ences." "He was" says Mr.. Nacfar-
land, ''as much a typical American as
Lincoln, though born TO better condi-
tiors. He had the inestimable advan-
tage of a father and mother, who gave
him a Christian home and a training
and example that made MIN in early
life follower in their steps" This
was indeed an advantage. for 1t estab-
