Th3 nkS to CartoOniStS ana tNe
hmcndacity OF opposing partisans. it is
p;oba rhat Senator Marcus A.
cughly misunderstood man by the peo-
PIE generally in the history of our
! country. When he visited Maine at
| the recent launching of the cruiser
Cleveland. no doubt some good Demo-
Gratis were surprised 10 see that his
clothes wee not check marked with
the dollar sign. that his face was not
repu,sive and porcinc. and that his
ears were not pointed. II .w,s reve-
la,ion probably, to some that his grief
al the death Of President Mckinley
was so evident that no doubt was left
OF its depth and sincerity. Governor
Durhin of Indiana has written for the
Washington Post a thoughtfuI and ap-
prcoiative article on Marcus A..
Hanna. the Man" which in justice 10
the most intimate friend and counselor
of the late President. should be read
by every American citizen.
Governor Durbin asserts that in the
public mind Mr.. Hanna has been gen
orally accepted IS Il person possessing
Il large degree OF animal force designed
to be exertcd in behalf of selfish inter
csts. This. says the governor, is a
total misconception Of the man. but the
cause of this injustice has been the
vitriolic pen of the caricatu en-
crge;ically seconded by sensational
editorial mendacity." Governor Durbin
has been for several years intimately
associated with MIR. Hanna. and thinks
he knows whereof he speaks lin testi
flying To his manly character, his gen
erous concern for the welfare OF others.
and his Kindness of heart" The gov
ernor repudia:es the idea that Mr..
Hanna ever aspired to be a boss. He
simply rose to his commanding posi-
tion," says the governor. by sheer
force of inherent genius. and lowered
above other political magnates and
nanagcrs-not as a dictator. but as 4
leader. He never forced his personal
ity on the public: the power within
him gave him prominence and thus
made of him a target for the poisoned
shafts OF critics and defamers who re-
fused to see or admit the better quail
ties of his nature
Mir. Hanna's response to Lincoln's
call for troops and the fact that he
never exploited his military service are
mentioned as proofs alike Of patriotism
and modesty. Governor Durbin thinks
Of the fact that Mr.. Hanna is a self
made man. that for years he has ear
Iied on his pay-rolls the names Of thou
sands Of employees with whom his rela-
tions have always been amicable. No
one ever heard that he was in any
sense an 'oppressor of the army Of la
bOrers to whom he gives constant re-
munera ton The governor mentions
the indsputabl BILE fact that Mr.. Hanna
personal honor, throughout the saw
age attacks that have been made upon
him. has not been questioned. nor has
his integrity ever been assailed, either
as business man or as a political
official. His devotion TO Mr.. Mckinley
dating back to a time when the latter
was hardly considered possible Presi-
dent, has but few parallels in history.

The Outlook for Anarchy.

An Anarchist. because he was Cn-
posed to the present form of govern
ment. murdered President Mckinley.
But anarchists viii never abolish the
present form of government by killing
those at its head. They must kill th.
people who choose to have that form of
government ana who place Presidents
at its head. by the time they have
done that. it is more than likely that
the anarchists themselves will be pretty
well killed off.

According to the official death-rate
figures. North Dakota and Iowa are
the most healthful states and Colorado
which poses as a health resort, the
least healthful. AS to Colorado, how
ever it is only fair to state that its
high death-rate is mainly due to the
great humber of incurable consump-
tives who go there from the East to
die. OF the large cities Washington
has the highest death-rate-2l.1l pei
1000. Philadelphia and New York are
very close together, with rate of
1873. Boston's is nearly 81. and
Chicago's is 14.6S-lowest of all the
cities of the first class.

TO SUPPRESS RAzING.
The senate Amendment 10 the Miii-
tary Academy BIZ.

The Senate yesterday passed the Mill
tary Academy Appropriation bill Mr.
Sewen called the measure up Immediately
at the close of morning business.
The amendment offered by Mr.. Allen
was called up. The amendment is as fol-
lows:
THAT each cadet on entering the Acad-
envy shall take and subscribe an oath
that he will not while student there
in, directly or Indirectly, engage in hazing
. or countenance the same, and If during
said time any cadet shall, directly or in
directly, engage in hazing OF encourage
or countenanoe the same, he shall be
summarily expelled from said Academy,
and shall never thereafter be eligible TO
appointment 10 any office in the army or
l1ayy.'
Mr.. Sewell objected to the amendment,
saying that he did not want young boys
to take oaths and break them.s
Mr. Allen said that these boys weres
started out in life with the idea that the
public must support them all their lives
by taxation.
Whenever one of these cadets engages
in the brutal practice of hazing. said he.
"he is as conscioas of the wrong as any
Senator in this chamber Then why
should he not take an GATH Every sol
dier in the army has to take an oath. and
If they can do il the namby y-pamDy boys at
West Point should be compelled to do it.
There is an idea in official circles that
an army or navy officer should not be re-
uuested to take an oath. This Is all bosh.
For myself. | have no sympathy with the
Regular Army.
Mr.. Allen then amended the committee
amendment against hazing by strengthen
ing the terms used. Ar. Sewell accepted
these. The amendment as agreed To states
that the Superintendent of the Military
Academy shall make such rules as will ef-
fectuaIly prevent the practice Of hazing
and any cadet found guilty Of participat-
ing in such practice shall be summarily
expelled.
The bill was then passed without diyi-
sion.
