as q private during the civil war, he
rose to the rank Of major when only
. years old
His political career was unusually
successful He was seven times elected
to congress, was twice governor Of
Ohio, and twice elected to the high
Office Of president Of the United States.
He gained high place In the republi-
can party as the champion Of high
protective tariff and was author Of and
introduced the bill in the house In 1890
that bore his name. In public life Mr..
Mckinley was dignified IN manner,
faithful and steadfast to his friends,
and devoted to the welfare Of his
country as he viewed its needs and
advantages. Only one regret fingers
when all is remembered, and that is
that this great man just passed away
should surrender his personal con
victions Of plain duty to the behest Of
political associates in the doubtful
cause of party success and political
expediency.
William Mckinley was born in Niles,
o., January %, 1913. He was married
to Miss Ida SaxtOn, Of Canton, January
q, 1871, and of the union two children
we're born but both died in childhood.
The domestic life Of Mr.. Mckinley was
beautiful and his devotion to his
invalid wife was strong and con-
slant, and the sadly bereft widow has
the sympathy Of the nation. Mr.. Nc
Kinley was a member Of the Method
ist church and never neglected the
worship of his Maker.

My Dear Aunt: Accept my sympathy
in your loss. Although my acquaint-
ance with yourself and my late uncle
was limited to the exchange Of an
occasional letter, I was sincerely sorry
to hear from you of his death I also
regret to learn that you and your
daughters are wholly unprovided for.
As your nearest relative I feel some
responsibility in your welfare and have
therefore thought out a plan whereby
you may be relieved of all anxiety con
corning the future. T1e matter being
one which it is easier to discuss verb
ally than by letter, have instructed
a friend of mine at present in England
to call upon you Immediately and place
my proposition before you. His name
is Mr.. George Chillingworth.

THE DIFFERENCE

1t has been noticeable in the recent
comments and press dispatches Of
many papers that they have grouped
socialists with anarchists. The follow
ing from the st. Louis Globe Democrat
is a fair reply to an unfair treatment of
the subject:
"The Globe-DemOcrat has more than
once pointed out the difference be
tween socialism and anarchism, but
both are connected loosely in many of
the newspapers as well as in the popu-
lar mind. The socialist, as well as the
anarchist, is blamed for the attempt
on President McKinley's life. In the
cries which are going up all over the
country for the extirpation of the an
archists the socialists are often group
ed with them. In reality there is a
very broad distinction between the
two orders.
"One Of the leading socialist papers
Of the United States, the Appeal to
Reason, printed in Girard, Kan, says
in its latest issue that no words can
express the horror at the insane act of
brutal anarchist that struck the chief
Of the nation and plunged the whole
people, regardless of party or creed,
into mourning That paper gives high
praise to the president, both as an Of
fetal and as man, and adds that the
anarchist has been the curse of the
earth. He refuses as a rule to vote.
He wants no law. He has been repudi-
ated by every creed and every party
on earth. Only an insane monster
could have committed an act of such
hideousness. Every citizen of the re
public execrates the act and the actor.
Such men should be treated as wild
beasts
These are the words of a representa-
tive socialist newspaper. They are IN
doubtedly Endorsed by the great body
Of the socialists throughout the United
States. Socialism and anarchy are as
far apart as the poles. The socialist
would enlarge the operations of gov
eminent so as to include most of the
great activities now under private dir
ection. The anarchist aims to abolish
all government. The socialist believes
in the motto of the newspaper from
which we have quoted that an intelIi-
gent ballot is the only hope of society,"
He Obeys the laws and respects all the
social sanctions like every other good
citizen. The anarchist tries to subvert
all law by numbering its makers and
administrators. He is against marri-
age, the church and all other observan-
ces and Institutions on which civiliza-
tion is based. In the words of one of
his apostles, he believes that sif there
were a God it would be necessary to
abolish him. His hand is against
every man, and every mans hand
ought to be against him. In justice to
a law-respecting and God fearing body
of American citizens, the distinction,
sweeping and fundamental as it is, be
tween socialism and anarchy should be
kept constantly in mind"

Senator John c. Spooner of Wisconsin
when a young man. was attorney for two
men charged with stealing, says the Sat
urday Evening Post
The prisoners stated that they had been
strolling along the river bank when they
espied a boat, and for a little amusement
jumped in and rowed out into the stream
The owner of the boat saw them and hur-
ried for a constable. who arrested them
as soon as they returned.
There had been taken from the men a
well-worn Bible and a small drawer. On
the fiy-leaf of the Bible was the inscrip-
Ton: ITO my darling boy, from Mother"
The trial was held the next day and the
future senator made a brilliant speech to
the jury. He exhibited the Bible and
pointed to the inscription, and without
leaving their seats the jury rendered a
verdict of Not guilty.
After the trial the young men gave the
lawyer fifty dollars. Boys" said Mr.
Spooner, as they were about to separate,
Il am curious to know why you carry
that Bible and the empty drawer" Then
the Senator listened with establishment to
the history of his clients.
we are professional safe-blowers and
have been for five years. This Bible has
a double cover and opens like this'' Chere
lue SelI-COnIeSSeQ criminal pressed a hid
den spring in the thick cover and dis
closed a hollow in which there lay two
steel files and a small saw land this old
drawer has a secret bottom where we
keep our tools"
The future senator confiscated the Bible
and the drawer.
One of the thieves shouted angrily
Wen get those things back yet; you
mark my words"
Several years passed and then the in
cident was brought back to Mr. Spooner's
recollection in the following manner One
evening he and his family attended an en-
tertainment. and no one was left at the
house. When they returned at a late
hour they found that the house had been
entered by burglars and ransacked, but
that nothing, apparently, was missing.
The next days mail brought a letter
which read:
Dear Sir: Please excuse the way we
came in last night. but the door was
locked. We never did think you treated
us square by swiping our outfit, and so
we came back after it and found you
were not at home. We always keep our
word. Yours truly, Jack and Jim.

The gathering yesterday afternoon in
the City Council chamber Of those who
have taken part in the movement to
bring the State Fair to this city, to meet
President Pope Brown and other gentle
men of the State Agricultural Society,
was a very pleasant and interesting oc-
casion. No one after hearing the remarks
! Of Col Brown and his associates had the
least doubt that the proposed Fair would
be an event to be remembered in the
history Of Savannah.
Col. Brown stated-and what he said
was seconded by Messrs. Barrett, Crit
tenden, Connor and Cavin-that from
one end Of the state to the other there
was general congrstulation upon the fact
that Savannah was to be the place for
holding the State Fair, and that every
body wanted to come to the southern city
Of the state and see it's commercial grand
eur and partake Of the proverbial hos
pitality Of its people. 1t is proposed to
make the Fair one Of the greatest events
in the fifty years history of the ,agri-
cultural society.
Savannah must do her share towards
making these expectations realities. To
this end every citizen should act well his
part. There is not the smallest difficulty
in the way. That the Fair will be held.
and that it will be worthy of the city, are
facts now beyond question But to make
it a great occasion there must be ample
|. capital; not to throw money away. but
to make the Fair what everyone desires
it should be.
While It is to be a fair of the state
Agricultural Society, the exhibits will
also embrace textiles, mechanical appara-
tus, minerals, forest products, women's
| department, etc. In addition to this To-
cal merchants and manufacturers will
have a place in the picture Races and
amusements of all kinds will be provided.
In short. ii is to be great exposition.

win be brought together in this city and
thus have an opportunity of seeing what
is going on in this busy center of com

THE ATLANTA DEPOT QUESTION

1t looks very much as II the Board of
Health Of Atlanta had the better of the
fight with the railroads respecting the de-
pot, into which it precipitated itself so
violently on Thursday. 1t is true that
the railroads make out a very plausible
case in their petition for an injunction,
but Of what avail will their allegations
be against their written pledge, given
to the Board of Health, that the depot
should he improved in accordance with
certain specifications in the event the
state failed to build new depot and the
railroads were occupying the place after
December /, 1900?
There may be something in the case
that has not yet appeared. The presumpS
ton is that there is, otherwise the roads
would not object to complying with their
pledge. 1t cannot he. of course, that the
roads made the pledge because they felt
certain that the state would undertake
before Dec. ]. to build new depot. The
real inwardness Of the matter will no
doubt come out when the injunction case
comes up before Judge Lumpkln

THE GREAT STEEL TRUST.

In industrial circles the topic Of the
hour is the deal BY which nearly all OF
the big steel manufacturing plants OF the
country are 10 be brought under one man
agement. The amount OF property in
volved is valued al more than billion
dollars So stupendous an industrial com
bination has never before been attempted.
It is true that the negotiations for Mr.
Csrncgie's great plant have not yet been
completed, but there seems to be no
doubt that he viii dispose Of his interest
in his great steel works to the syndicate
that is aiming 10 control the production
Of steel in this country and the steel mar
ket OF the entire world.
The leaders of this syndicate realize
that there is much feeling against the
movement 90 combine the principal steel
plants, and so they are trying to have
it understood that the consolidation that
is being effected is not a trust ia any
sense, but simply an effort TO bring about
harmony among the producers of steel.
1t is difficult, however, to see what diff
ference there is between the thing they
are aiming 10 accomplish and trust
The great combination viii be practically
under one management and will control
prices absolutely.
And what is to become of the smaller
steel plants that fail to get into the com
bination? That is a question that is be-
ing quite generally asked. It is remem-
beTed how the Standard Oil Company
dealt with the small oil producers and re-
fners. If half Of what the small con-
Germs said about the Standard are true,
they were driven out of business They
had TO sell out at the prices offered them
or run the risk OF being ruined. II the
giant steel trust, that has just been form
ed, or is in the process Of formation, pur
sues the tactics that were said to have
been employed by the Standard on Com
pany to rid itself of competition then
Heaven help the little fellows" who
fail to get in the combination.
1t will be impossible 90 monopolize the
raw materials required in the manufac-
ture Of steel, and If the steel trust should
become too greedy a rival might appear
in the field of steel manufacturing. While
there are grounds for experimenting OPP
preston from the steel trust, there is a
feeling that a way for society to pro-
tect itself from its exactions still re-
meins open.

RArpING pRrG STORES.

There is some public sentiment behind
Mrs Nation, who is engaged in smashing
saloons in Kansas Besides. IN that state
there is no law which protects the sa-
loon. the selling Of intoxicants by the
drink being outlawed, but there is no sen
timent worth noticing behind the nl-ad-
vised men and women who are smashing
drug stores in Chicago. SIM the drug
store smashers plead Mrs. Nations exam
pie as an excuse for what they are doing
They are faith-cure healers and pretend
to believe that drugs are the cause Of
more harm to the human race than in
toxicants. These Chicago faith-cure heal
ers say that druggists are devils in
human form"
Il is somewhat remarkable that the
drug store smashers were not put in jail
just as soon as their craze for smashing
drug stores assumed a destructive form
II seems however, that thus far none OF
them has been called to account. II
they continue 20 raid drug stores II is
certain that they will be given a term
in prison. They ought certainly to be
locked up. They are not sufficiently re-
spoHsibie to be permitted to be at large.
II the faith-cure healers were in their
right minds they would be emitted TO
the credit Of being very courageous. They
are only a very small minority in any
community in which they are found, and
yet they are bold enough 10 make war
on drugs in which pretty nearly every
body believes to a greater or less extent
Il seems that not being able to convince
the world that their plan Of curing
by faith is better than the plan of curing
BY drugs, they propose to compel the
world 70 adopt their faith-cure views By
destroying the drugs.
And that is just what Mrs.
Nation and those who sympa-
thize with her propose 10 do They
cannot convince the majority of the
people, or Will not try to convince them,
that the saloons ought to be closed and
the sale Of intoxicants barred. and so
they 90 forth 10 compel the adoption Of
their views by violent means. If all who
have views for making the human race
better morally mentally and physically.
were TO adopt the methods employed by
Mrs. Nation and her followers and the
faith-cure healers 10 bring about the ac-
ceptance of their views, the world would
be turned upside down. Even those who
uphold Mrs. Nation would be among the
first TO cry out for law and order. In
deed. it is doubtful If Mrs. Nation is pre-
pared TO approve the course that Is being
pursued by faith-cure heaers in Chicago
to prevent the use of drugs. and yet she
is to blame for what they are doing there
She is no more justified in undertaking to
stop traffic in intoxicants by means of VIC
lence than the faith-cure healers are in
trying by the same means to stop the sale
of drugs.
