Mckinley is dead. The peerless
statesman, the beloved executive, the
faithful, true-hearted gentle friend has
who repaid his smile with an assassln's
bullet.
[Cedar Rapids Republican,
Mckinley was in very truth beloved
How infinitely cruel seems his untimely
death. He had overcome. He had gone
thru foreign war carrying innumera-
BILE burdens and responsibilities bear
ing unwarranted criticism. without re-
proach and without complaint. He had
met and solved to the satisfaction of his
Icountrymen and with the approval OF
the considerate judgment of mankind,
problems new and intricate. The past
justified, he faced the future hopefully,
almost joyously, anticipating, as his last
public utterances attest, new victories
of peace for the land of his affection. Is
II the fate of those who lead to the gate
way of a new era to die this side Of the
promised land. So Lincoln died and
now so dies Mckinley.
LBoone Republican,
To speak of the life and the work of
William Mckinley seems almost super
fiuous Mckinley, as a man and as a
public official, manly man in private
| life. an honorable man in the public SER
vice, stands out the peer of any Ameri-
can, as one of the most typically grand
characters in our history.
Davenport Republican,
| In the death of William Mckinley the
nation loses statesman and patriot. II
is only natural for our people to mourn
In his time he did great deal and did
lit well. AS soldier, congressman, COVER
Inor OF a great state and as president he
did his full measure of duty to his
country, and leaves a record of work
/ we'll done. There will be other grea'
presidents of the United States. but
none greater than William Mckinley.
