lT is one OF the strange things of

few persons who have let slip from
their mouths that they were pleased
at the death Of President Mckinley,
but in nearly every instance they
have been called 10 account. Such
persons are not good citizens and
the community would be tie better
rid of them and at once. This is
free country but no person should
be allowed to bei0n! the character
Of our murdered President. They
should be shot on the spot.

assumes and the people have tull
confidence in his ability and in.es-
rity to discharge his new duties 10
the best interest OF his several mil

out the term OF VIM Mckinley and
the probabilities are that il alive.
