DosTER's ELOQUENT WORDS.
Extols President Mckinley and
Makes Plea For Justice.

Chief Justice Frank Doster of the
Kansas supreme court, delivered a very
strong address, which in many ways
was widely different from the other
speeches Of the afternoon. He pleaded
for mercy upon the assassin CzolgOsz,
and for fair treatment to anarchists
suspected of completely in the crime.
he said:
I am glad of this opportunity to join
voice with you in tribute Of respect to
William Mckinley, and to testify to my
horror at the assassin's act which end
ed his life, and my detestation of the
alleged motive for the deed. believe

universal sentiment when / say I love
to contemplate state of society in
which everyone, voluntarily, without
the compulsory force of law would sub

vidual action as might be necessary to
the good Of the social whole, but I know
that humankind is incapable now Of the
practice of such high virtue, and /
know that it can attain to 1t, if ever
at all, only through the scourgings of
municipal law and the doing of penance
for violated commandments. He who
