Bury President Mckinley at ArIfng-
To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Now that our beloved and lamented Pres
ident William Mckinley is dead and our
hearts have gone out in loving sympathy
to his heroic Christian wife, the next
thought arises-where is the President to
be buried? AS quick as thought comes the
answer: "At Arlington"-''the Gods acre"
of this great nation; the national cemetery
among the vine-clad hills; the tall, beautiful
oaks, and within sight Of the capital he
loved SO well-where in eternal sleep rest
so many of this nations illustrious pa
triots and heroes; a place where his pa
triotic, noble Christian life will be a per-
petual Inspiration to our own and each
succeeding generation, and where the
mausoleum-which no doubt will be erected
by the people who loved and honored him
and whom he served SO faithfully-wfll be
looked after andl kept in perfect order by
the government. Let not the mistake be
made this time, as was the case in burvine
our other martyred observation-disclosures at
Springfield, ILL.,, and Garfield at Cleveland
Ohio, and also In the case of that illus
trious President, patriot and soldier, Ulys-
ses s. Grant at Riverside Park. N. y
the graves Of whom are In out-of- the-way
places and wells nigh forgotten by the
younger generation.

tiful Arlington, and in doing SO. reserve
a place beside HIM fOr his faithful, loving.
heroic wife, where hour after hour day
