country as whole. Only few years
ago, campaigns of the "bloody shirt"
order were of regular occurrence,
But at the opportune time came the
Spanish-American war, and by bring
ing together the soldiers of the North
and the soldiers Of the South, and
thus union of sentiment throughout
the whole country, prepared the
ground for systematic campaign
which President Mckinley made for
the unifcation of the two sections.
He has repeatedly mentioned this
cementing of the two sections in his
messages, has made speeches and
travelled in the South, has shown
honor to the Confederate veterans as
brave men who fought nobly FOR a
r. . y
mistaken cause, and most of all has.
shown genuine sympathy for the
South and its problems. In this.
President Mckinley definitely COM
pleted the work of President Lincoln,
in fact sympathized with the South
as no president since Lincoln has,
and when the history of this period
shall be written, it will give to Nc
Kinley due credit for having con-
the work begun by Lincoln
If saving the Union by both the
power of war and love.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER n, 1901.
WIN. rlckINLEY, STATESMAN.

City will be done, not ours" were
President McKinley's last conscious
words. They showed the deep
Christian character Of the man, and
were fitting expression with which
to close SO noble life. A man who
is willing to submit to Gods will as
the best, is also willing to fight and
fight hard when he believes he is
doing the will of the Almighty. Nc
Kinley was such man. After his
kindness, his most prominent trait of
character was his frmness. During
the years of his presidency, he must
have been exposed to temptations of
which the ordinary citizen does and
can know very little. Yet Mckinley
has withstood the opportunities of
INSCRIPTIONS politicians with firm
ness which was decisive although it
did not offend. His was strong
hand whose roughness was ,gloVed
with glove of kindness.

One Of the greatest triumphs Of the
Mckinley administration has been
the complete wiping out of the old
sectionalism between The North and
South. Only a few years aga the
line drawn on the war maps Of 1861
still remained clear and distinct. II

LIKE many another statesman, the
greatness of VIM. Mckinley could not
be- fully known until after his death,
on account of their being many
public acts which could not be pub
lished. Mr.. Mckinley has been most
shamefully maligned for his sup
posed lack of sympathy for the
South African republics, yet by the
statement of the unofficial represer !
tative of the Boer republics, it is now
known that Mr.. Mckinley addressed
several notes to the British govern
ment on the subject of mediation, and
carried his efforts. for peace far
beyond what would have been toler-
ated from any other power, II was
only the we'll known fairness and
s u 4,+ l. y e 80
moderation" Of Mr.. Mckinley that
prevented q feeling Of resentment by
the British government. This same
fairness and moderation was notice
able in his conduct Of the negotla-
tions during the crisis in China. and
It was the greatest compliment to-
Pres. Mckinley and to the American
people Of which he was an expression.
that the powers Of Europe and the
Chinese government, while they had
no confidence in each other, all were
willing TO follow the lead Of VIM.

Morris tribune. [volume] (Morris, Minn.) 1880-2000, 1901-09-21

WHILE withstanding unserupulous
politicians, Mckinley surrounded
himself with the most excellent class
of public officials. During no adj
ministration of recent years has the
personnel of the public service in
eludes men of such culture and high
ideals. Take as an example the
cabinet officers, the men who have
been sent to Philippines, the COVER
nors of Porto Rico, and the men who
have handled the delicate admins
tration of affairs in Cuba. This was
the nations opportunity to showthat
it was not nation to whom the
almighty dollar was everything, and
molly Mckinley met the test. and
appointed men to administrative
positions in these islands whose ad-
ministrtion has been the admiration
Of the world.

VIM. MCKINLEY was probably the
last of the wal presidents, and after
Lincoln, the greatest. Every can
didate of the Republican party since
Lincoln's time has been war hero,
but Mckinley was by far the greatest
statesman of any. Hayes and Har-
rison were both statesmen of great
breadth, but neither lived in time
calculated to bring out their great
ness. Grant was a great general, and
as such, rather than as president, he
is remembered. Garfield was states
man of true worth but his presidency
was cut off before he had an oppor-
tunity to fulfill his work.

MoK1NLEY's faith in his country
was the mark of che great statesman.
When in 1896, the country was agi-
tated over the money question, he
had faith to declare that the financial
straits in which the country was
then suffering would not be per-
manent. During the ''reconcentrado"
timss in Cuba, he had faith to de-
clare the duty Of the United States.
and had faith also that the American
people would stand behind him in
the questions which should arise out
of a declaration in favor of Cuba.
When the war was over and armed
resistance was offered to the United
States in the Philippines, he had
faith to declare the good intentions
of this government, and to inspire
that same faith in the people Of the
archipelago. In the new RESPONSE
bilities which then devo.yed upon.
this government, and. in the crisis
which later arose in China, he had
s. q + (
faith to inaugerate policies, which
were far removed from the traditional
policy Of isolation of the United
States, with full confidence that the
United States was ready to take it's
place among the nations Of the
world, and bear its share Of the
world burdens. Against such bound
ing faith, the. prophets Of unbelief
could avail little, and during the adj
ministration of Mckinley, there has
been greet awakening Of the Ann
erican people to full realization of
supreme position as leaders ofsciyiliz-
alton.

In his ideas on the tariff, Mr.. Nc
Kinley was a protectiouist, and enc
Kinleyism" is term which has come
to be applied to the most. extreme
forms of the protective tariff theory.
But "McKinleyism" out-tariffed Nc
Kinley, and had been unsatisfactory
to a large part of the Republican
party during the last year or two, and
that Mr.. Mckinley himself should
pronounce against it and in favor of
RECIPROCITY" places him among the
list CT progressive statesmen, rather
than among those who had done
their work aud fulfilled their period
of usefulness. The Buffalo speech
delivered the day before he was
shot-was an experimenting address,
and the policies there set forth would
have become and will become the
rallying cry of Republicans every
where. Yet the courage displayed by
Mckinley in taking the stand he did
was magnificent. The protected in
dustries of the United States haye
grown to such magnitude, that they
have become almost arrogant in their
demands for protection, and if they
80 desired, would be able to defeat
any party which was inimical to their
interests, Yet Mckinley had the
courage to take the stand for the
consumer, and left as it we're a. fare
we'll message to the American people
that the further development of Am
erican Industries must come from de-
velopment Of foreign markets rather
than from discrimination at home.

Although the special had the right Of
way over the Southern Pacific system
from Ogden to Oakland, it was side
tracked this morning at Port Costa to al
low other special trains to reach the Oak
land mole Three specials bearing dele
gates to the Episcopal convention were
carried across the Straits of Carquinez at
the same time as the Morgan special was
ferried across on the Solano.
1t was exactly 8 a. m. yesterday when
the Morgan special pulled into the depot
on the Oakland mole. The passengers
were at breakfast in the dining car and
did not leave the train until an hour later.
William H Crocker was at the depot to
receive Bishop Potter and Mr.. Morgan,
and a prominent figure was that of Louis
Sherry, the New York caterer who was
sent to this city by Morgan to take charge
of the cuisine Of the Crocker mansion,
where the millionaire and his guests will
reside during the convention. Sherry ar
rived in San Francisco on Monday night,
but he had been preceded by a corps Of

The distinguished visitors were in the

walked to the carriages in waiting. AS
soon as the carriages were driven on
the ferry-boat Morgan and his guests left
the vehicles and climbed the stairs to the
upper deck. The usual passengers on the
boat soon learned of the identity of the
party and they surrounded the millionaire
and his clerical friends. Morgan was
dressed in a dark cutaway suit and wore
derby hat. He evidently enjoys smok-
ing, for he used two cigars on the trip
across the bay. Bishop Potter also
enjoyed cigar while on the upper deck
of the ferry-boat, and millionaire and
Bishop were gently reproved by deck
hand for violating the rules of the rail-
road company, but they. continued to puff

Now stand back was the newt order,

NANAIMO, B. c., Oct. Thine only
adds TO the horror of the Extension Col

lost their lives and months will elapse be-
fore their bodies are recovered. The mines
are now sealed up, but at any moment an
explosion may blow out the stoppings and
wreck the workings. The remedy, danger
Gus though ii be, was the only one pos
sible. The mines are high up the hill and
water would have to be pumped to a
height Of 1000 feet and a distance of about
a mile. This course will be adopted when
the attempt TO smother the fire is proved
ineffective.
In any event the mines must lie idle
many months. Prior to the disaster Of
Monday the Extension output was 35 900
tons Of coal a month. It cannot now be
more than 10000 tons. Work has been
promised to about half the men who are
turned adrift by the disaster. which in

The victims Of the mine fire were nearly
al married men and their families in most
cases are utterly unprovided for. Relief
funds have been opened.

SACRAMENTO DEMOCRATS
NAME DEVINE FOR MAYOR
Five Candidates Are Now Racing for
the Office and a Warm Cam
paign Is Probable.

SACRAMENTO, Oct The Demo
cratic City Convention tonight NOM
mated James H. Devine for Mayor with
out a dissenting voice. This makes the
fifth candidate in the field for the office
Of Mayor, the others being William Land,
Republican; L. Tozer. Municipal League;
George H. Clark, Independent, and S. E.
Alderman, Socialist.
Old politicians declare that the cam
paign. which will close early in Novem-
Der, viii be one Of the hottest waged
here in many years. George H. Clark,
the incumbent, has cast defiance into the
teeth Of the Republican organization, and
has even placed an immense electric sign
announcing E4< candidacy on top of the
very building IN which the Republicans
maintain their headquarters.
In accepting the nomination tonight
Devine said that he had no newspaper TO
support him and no electric devices to
light him on his way. He openly charged
William Land with having, while in the
Office Of Mayor three years ago, betrayed
the interests OF the people in the matter
Of buying up city bonds Of questionable
validity. Deviae pronounced against the
proposed mechanical filtration plan, say
ing that it would cost vast sums to op-
crate it. He declared that now, while
Sacramento was on the eve Of making
many costly improvements. the taxpay-
ers should be watchful Of the men they
put into Office.
The convention nominated Trustees as
follows: First Ward, George K. Rider;
Third Ward, Grant Black; Fifth Ward,
Joseph Mayo; Seventh Ward, L. vogel;
Ninth Ward, Edward Carragher. c. M
Prodger was nominated for City Treas
urer.

deckhand had placed the chain across

Bishop Doane asked to be allowed to

deckhand, unaware Of the identity of the

the deckhand was not looking, Bishop
Doane stopped down and passed under

Rev. DR.. Greer Of New York and num-

The special train Of the millionaire con-
sisted Of six cars, which accommodated the
eleven guests Of Mr.. Morgan and the staff
Of train servants.
The train was made up Of the composite
car Atlanta, carrying the baggage and the
electric dynamo for lighting the train; the
sleeping car Petruchio, the dining car
HoIlenden, the private car Columbia, oc-
cupied by Bishops Potter and Doane; the
private car Genesta, occupied by Mr..
Morgan, and the observation car Alroy.
The car occupied by Mr.. Morgan Is the
property Of President Newman of the
New York Central Railroad. The train
was not one that can be designated as
luxurious and did not compare in equip
ment with the one used by the late Presi-
dent Mckinley in his journey to the Pa
cific Coast.
The train crew consisted of eighteen
persons, including. the porters, waters,
two electricians and a stenographer. The

morning at 8 o'clock orders were given
