The Sympathy Of England.

From almost every government Of
earth have come messages of sympa-
thy to our stricken Nation and there Is
every reason to believe that they have
been far more than the perfume tory
messages usually occasioned by the
death of ruler. But in no foreign
land have the evidences of grief and
sympathy been more numerous. and
nowhere have they been more sincere
than in England. When the beloved
Queen Victoria died there was an out
pouring of sympathy from this land
as was never before witnessed from
one country 70 another. but i'll extent
and intensity it is now surpassed by
Blitan. Had there been such uni
versal manifestations of sympathy in
CHS country when the Queen died as
there is now in England upon the mar
tyrdom of our President, the con
servative would doubtless mildly con
demned it and sneered at it as a case
Oh dSSIdNHteu 1NuSlOild1lld- let We
are gratified at the action of the Eng
lish, and feel that it is but demon
stration of the truth that blood is
thicker than water.
The English court is in mourning
for week; E,ngland's king and queen
attended the memorial service at
Copenhagen. Sunday. The Household
Guards wore Grape; the military bands
played dirges; in every cathedral and
parish church of Great Britain preach
ers and musical directors paid tribute
to the dead President memory; the
most extended and most appreciat.ve
eulogies, and these and other evil
dences Of fellowship have made the
coffin OF William Mckinley the cente
of the whole English speaking world.
ii is not at all strange that England
should mourn the dead President and
regret his loss even more deeply than
other foreign lands. She needed NJ
| fresh assurances to confidently count
| him among her friends. He had bee
ut the head of our government at 4
time when closer ties between that
country and this were being oemcnted
and when a better mutual under
standing was reached. The American
expression of sympathy when the
Queen died has not been forgotten. and
i; has lindled to deeper glow the
feeling that goes out from the mothe +
country to this one in the time of her
sorrow.
1t IS an interesting feature of this
fortnight of excitement and tragedy
that the host of the late President at
Eufalo was native English
man. Yet he was the chosen enter

The DAY Of Mourning and PRAYER,

Dust to dust. In the home city Of
Canton, today. all that is mortal of
William Mckinley is consigned to the
earth whence il came. With simple
ceremonial those who knew him and
loved him best will perform the last
sad offices. Only a few can stand be
side the bier on which lies tie lost
leader: only a few surround the open
grave. But in spirit all our millions
are there, today, and all the wide
world beyond our shores looks on with
n sympathy that is more than formal
framing Of words.
This is our day of mouI ming and
prayer. 1t was an appreciation of p Ib
lie sentiment which led President
Roosevelt, as his first Off, ial act. to set
apart this day by proclamation. and it
WIS cmincntiy fitting that Governor
Hill and the executives of other states
should follow his example. There is
Eothing perfunCtory about these proc
lamations. The universal grief is
such that the suggestions in them are
gladly welcomed and will be fully fol-
lowed out. BUSINESS Of all kinds will
be suspe nded and in their places Of
wol snip and elsewhere our people will
az semtle for exercises fitting the coca
s;.o.. There will be the half-masted
flag. the tolling bell tie long parade.
tie draped picture. the eloquent eulogy
nd the religious services. And all
these will be expressive Of the pIo-
found sorrow that fills the Nations

cities. rs ail through the land, the day
will be observed in the spirit of the
procla mations. The fun program is
given in another column. Let business
be suspended and the memorial Sc
vices be worthy tribute to the he
loved and illustrious dead. Our ,i.i-
Zens will honor themselves in honoTing
the memory of the martyred President.

ana prayer in all America. NJ 2ur?iag
for the Chief who is taken in the hour
when he had the most to live for. and

Well were his in fullest measure;
mourning that among our millions
there should be one whose heart could
prompt and whose hand could strike
that bastard blow. Prayer that the
lesson of the life now ended on earth
shall bless and guide our Nation: that
the memory of William McKinley's life

tons pass: that kis successor shall
have wisdom ana strength in the high
Office to which the crisis calls him;
that the God of law and order shall

the presence of those who oppose law

Near ones sorest afflicted: and that
after the shadow of sorrow and loss
shall come the clear light of Gods
blessed day.
