opinion of his own political party and
his political friends. He was held in
the confidence of the world. Nations
and individuals were as certain as OF
the rising and setting of the sun that
Gen. Harrison would invariably do the
right thing. In his calm way he
walked through the turbulent world
when other mems actions were trou-
bled and uncertain. No man could
better meet a sudden crisis"

family, nor to his friends. sorrow as
they may--it is the nation, the great
est on earth.
Ten days ago Benz. Harrison was
the foremost man in America. make
no exception. He had every quality of
greatness-a courage that was daunt-
less, foresight almost to prophesy, a
mind clear, strong and of broad nature;-
strengthened by exercise and constant
dealing with subjects of national i'm
port-subjects of world wide interest"
