with ready understanding of the mer-
its and greatness of the president;
sometimes younger girls and boys from
the grammar schools have been the
visitors; and sometimes | have seen
classes of little tots from the primary
grades, forming in wavering, unsteady
line to receive the warm grasp of the
presidents hand, and the influence of
his CHEEKY smile. On the occasion of
one of my last visits to the White
House, | saw members of congress-,
high officials and distinguished visitors
all waiting in the outer room of the
presidents office for ar audience,
while the president was shaking hands
with a long line of lads from an orphan
asylum, and giving them a few kindly
words of hopeful advice.
The same thoughtful consideration
for boys and girls has been a marked
feature of President McKinley's visits
to various parts of the country.
William McKinley's school days
We're few. At the age of seventeen he
had given up school and was teaching
a country school near Poland Ohio,
and was boarding round" with those
whose children were his pupils. Then
he clerked in the %postoffice at Poland,
and it vas while he was doing this
work that the news came that Sumter
had been fired upon. In June, 1860,
he enlisted as a private soldier in the
first organization formed in his town,
which was Company E, Tw%enty-third
Ohio Volunteers. You will note that
he did not go to a member of congress
or to any influential friends to aid him
in obtaining a commissioned officers
place. He stepped on the lowest round
of the ladder; he ooh his place as a
private soldier, and sought only TO do
his duty as it presented. Promotion
came after he participated in his first
battle. 1t was not a big promotion;
he advanced but a step, being made a

Abolish the Anarchist
The attempted assassination of
President Mckinley brings home to the
American people a lesson that has
been learned by every civilized com
munity in Europe. Anarchy is defined
by Webster as absence or utter disre-
gard for government: an unregulated
and chaotic condition of society; social
and political confusion and disorder"
It follows. that We Americans, who
love good government and pride our
selves on maintaining the very best and
most enlightened institutions on the
face If the earth. should be the last to
tolerate in our midst a set of hyenas
who are outlawed wherever civilization
is known. who are demons in human
shape. who would abolish all we most
hold dear and substitute a reign of ter
ror and chaos.
1t is the duty of congress to expatri-
ate every anarchist. and to pass such
stringent immigration laws that no
foreign anarchist can hereafter set his
foot on American soil. We do not hes
itate to exclude the Chinaman. because
his presence here endangers the vel
fare of the American w~orkingman: we
should hesitate less in expelling and
excluding every anarchist, because his
presence here endangers the existence
of a government, for the promotion of
which every loyal American stands
ready to shed his blood.-Bunalo

THE SUN is of the opinion that many things are now allowed to exist that are detriment to Flagstaff and these things could be corrected without any friction by the action of the board of trade.

The total num- Der of deaths was 3,4S2. The total number of wounded who recovered was 2,629, making grand total of 6,1ll. These figures include all the operations in the Philippines against Spain and the Tagal insurgent armies, and cover period of more than two years and half. Viewed in connect ion with the extent and duration of the two wars they are proof of re- markedly good management.

ADVERTISING.
Tho Way to Use It
 Successfully.

Advertise continu- ously, business will follow. A pile driver accOmplishes it's work by constant pounding. That is the way suc- cessful business men win trade-by constant advertising. The pile driver cannot sink @ long stick with one or two blOwS-there must be steady, persistent work. No more can a business man hope to win q big business by one or two advertise ments. He must keep constantly before the public, day after day. month after month and year after year. By such means a store becomes m establish ed institution, secure in It's position, If it keeps up-t0-date in every thing. The slightest suspension in effort will be taken advantage of by your shrewd competitors. The worst place to allow exertion to re- lax is in advertising, for that sort of thing attracts notice of an undesirable kind. Yet there are business men who consider it wise to stop advertis- ing altogether. How can they so view the matter when they see fortunes made by ad- vertising:
 The cost for news paper advertising in THE SUN is low when circulation is consid- cred. Therefore every business man-wheth- CT doing Q One-man or a i0O-man trade-can afford to advertise.

COL. JAMES K. SMITH.

Special to the Register.
GRAFTON, w Va, May 20.9COl.
James X. Smith, n of the pioneers OF
this part of the State, died at his home
in Fetterman this morning at 2 O'Clock,
after several weeks illness, from drop
sy. The deceased had, since the organ
ization of this county in 1874, been as
ISOLATED with and taken an active part
in the business and political affairs of
the county. He vas born in the year
1919 at Pruntytown, then Harrison
county. and at the organization of Tay-
lor county in 1874 was elected it's first
prosecuting attorney, serving four years
in that capacity. He entered the mer-
camille business at Fetterman in 1850,
and when the B. & o. established an
agency at the place a year later he was
made its agent, which position he held
up to the time of his
death, being consulted by the higher
officials always as to the local manage
ment and business matters closely re-
lated to the roads wants and improve
ments. He was Taylor county's repre-
sentative in the legislature at Rich
mond, Va, in its stormy session OF 1860
and 1861. He was n of the directors
of the State penitentiary during the
administrations of Governors Matthews
and Jackson. He was one of the incor-
p%orators of the First National bank at
this place, when it was organized IN
1873, and had been a member OF its
directors ever since. He served as pres
ident of the county court for three con-
secutive terms. But no work OF his life
did he point to with more pride tina
his connection with the West Virginia
reform school. AS a member of the
locating board, he used his influence in
favor of Pruntytown, and secured its
locaf'Hv at that place, and TO his eight
years service as n of the directors
the school is largely indebted for its
rapid advancement. He was married in
December, 1853, to Miss Achsah NAL
lonnee, a member of one of the first and
most prominent families to settle in
this part of the State from eastern Vir-
ginia. The children from this union
are Mrs. Scottie Love, of this place, and
the Misses Laura, Kate and Cora, who
resided with him.
The funeral will take place from his
late home Wednesday at 2 p. M, fol-
lowed by interment in Bluemont Gene
terry. While Col. Smith was a member
of the M. E. church from his youth
up, it was his special request that his
old-time friend, Rev. DR.. J.. Fl. Flana-
gan, pastor of the Presbyterian church,
should conduct the last religious rites
and preach the funeral sermon when he
(Smith) should pass away. This re-
quest will be fulfilled, as DR.. Flanagan,
who is attending the Presbyterian gen.
eral assembly at Philadelphia, has been
wired to and will be back in time to
fulfill the agreement religiously made
between the two great and good friends
of a lifetime. While ripe in years and
it's closing event expected at any time
within the last month, the death of
Col. Smith is received as a great shock
to the community, where for the past
half century and more he was so prom
inently known, beloved and respected.
