4 President Roosevelt did wise and

ton.

war with other countries and the adop-

MCKINLEY AND THE FLAG.


President Mckinley was noticeably,
above all his other qualities, patriot.
Early in life he followed the flag in de-
Tense of the Union and thus showed his
personal devotion to his country. But
it may be well to call attention now to
the large part which President McKin-
ley and the principles he stood for have
had in arousing the patriotism of others
and in creating a genuine national
spirit.
In 1896. during his first campaign for
the Presidency, there was display of
the national flag unprecedented at that
time because of the feeling that McKin-
ley stood for national honor, and this
feeling was by no means confined to his
own party. Two years later, when this
country declared war against Spain on
behalf of the down trodden Cubans, the
President SO performed his part that his
call for volunteers was answered with
enthusiasm from east and west, north
and south. and those who had been to-
some extent separated by prejudice or
supposed interest were heartily united
in the great common cause of their
country's welfare.
1t was not surprising, therefore, when
Mr.. Mckinley was again the candidate
for the Presidency in 1900, that the peo-
pie once more manifested their patriot
ism by profuse display of the flag and
by electing Mr.. Mckinley by grecter
majority and in a greater number of
States than any President since the days
of Washington.
And to-day there is greater display
of the flag than our country has ever
seen, but alas the flag is at half mast
and draped in mourning, the expression
of nations heartfelt sorrow. felt by
rich and poor alike and in every part OF
our land without exception.
William Mckinley has endeared him
self to all by his sterling manliness and
honesty of character, by his lofty prin-
ciples and noble aims, by his unseltish
devotion to the high duties to which ht
was called, by his humble and sincere
Christian life, and by his chivalrous and
tender love for the partner Of his joys
and sorrows. And all hearts followed
with interest and affection that sad
funeral procession from Buffalo te
Washington and from Washington t.
his old nome in Canton, Ohio. where hi
mortal remains were laid to rest in /
casket draped with the flag he loved g
well,
