The Bar Association had hard time
getting a quorum for its meeting yes.
terday afternoon. \ tritie before $3.50.
thirty minutes after the hour set. A. q.
Kaulukou was elected chairman Of an
informal meeting and Dan II. Case.
the secretary. took his place. Presi-
dent Hartwell. who issued the call for
the meeting. was not present.
Judge Silliman. who had come on
time, waited until there was no APP
parent likelihood of quorum being
present and then. when the chairman
called for remarks, arose and said, in
part:
II had supposed that this was to be
meeting OF TIE Bar Association. 1t
was called by the President. but he Is
not here to preside. nor is there a
quorum to transact business In the
regular way. There may he some who
are unable to attend. Mr.. Hatch for in
stance is unavoidably detained, but
upon an occasion Of this kind 1t IL
unfortunate that the Association can
not secure a quorum.
Speaking personally Of President
Mckinley, | had the pleasure twice OF
meeting him. Once was when the
country was wildly In his favor for
President and the National Convention
was in progress. But he stood firm
and refused to allow his name to go
before the convention because he had
promised President Harrison Of his
support. The point that has struck
me in his career has been his unfalter-
ing loyalty.
Again met him at the time that
Charles a. Towne walked out from the
Convention. lie said to me mfr. Silli-
man. | spoke in Duluth for the benefit
partly of Mr.. Towne. spoke to
Speaker Reed and ne appointed him to
place on the River and Harbor Com
mittee. and he appointed him to a
! place on the River and Harbor Com
mittee, and his walking out OF that
meeting in this manner really pained
as the way 1t that impressed me
again with his extreme loyalty. There
was some thing In those blue eyes
something In the loving and tender
voice that | found was giving Ssy Ia
n feeling OF sympathy.
And no had poep IN Ruffalo In NEE,

greatest confidence in the peonle. And
II was this confidence in Tho paopIe
that gave the anarchist the opportunit,

To gather here and show our respect"
lust here there was parl,amentar,
debate. The entrance OF LorrIn An

more made up the necessary quorum
and the resolutions which had beer
