Senator McLaurin, Of South Caro-.
lima, tells OF an interview he had with
President Mckinley during the early
part of the spanish-American war.
He says; THE president spoke bean
tifully aud tenderly OF the southern
people and of how he intended tC
use the power AID influence Of his
great office to reunite our country.
l can recall the words, but who
can paint the earnestness and elo.
quence, as, raising one hand on high,
he said: Senator, by the help Of
God l propose to be the president of
the whole country, the south as much
as the north. and before the end Of
my term the south will understand
this. No wonder, as a true southern
man, loved and trusted President
Mckinley. | stood by him in the
senate and elsewhere, and thank
God that l did Patriotic in purpose
and pure in heart, his noble soul is
now with him whom the hate Of men
nailed to the cross. Like Lincoln,
who saved the country, Mckinley,
who reunited it, dies q martyr to
envy and hate.

Cuba believes IN President Roose-
Welt The people do not think their
chances of independence have been
imperiled in the least by President
McKinley's death, and Governor
Nunez, Of the Havana Province,
echoed the predominant sentiment
when he said: Cuba believes in
President Roosevelt. She is convinced
that he will adhere TO the honorable
and humane policy Of his predecessor,
and that the independence promised
her will in no wise be retarded by
the dastardly crime at Buffalo"

A healthy sentiment has developed
throughout the country in favor Of
laws that will protect our presidents
from malicious attack and ridicule.
Such law would do a great deal to-
wards eliminating the prejudice often
aroused in the breasts Of the ignorant

sulting cartoons. One New York
paper, in particular, has learned a les.
