pie of the state. raised by voluntary
contributions sufficient funds and pro-
visions to meet every case of actual
priVation, throughsrelief committees of
his own selection, the bulk of the work
being done under his personal direction
at Columbus. Several serious outbreaks
occurred during his administration at
one time requiring the presence of g. COO
of the national guard in the field On
three occasions prisoners were saved
from mohs and safely incarcerated in
the state prison. His declaration that
iynchlng must not be tolerated in
Ohio" was literally made good for the
first time in any state administration.
On the expiration OF his term as gov
eTnor he lived quietly at his old home
in Canton for SIX months.
AS the election of 1896 drew near it
became evident that William Mckinley
would be the nominee of his PARTY for
the presidency. The obstacles that had
hitherto presented themselves were re-
moved and he became an avowd candi-
date.
In the Republican national conven-
ton held in St Louis in June 1896, he
was nominated for president on the
first ballot Early in the electoral con-
test he announced his determination
not to engage in the speaking cam
paign on the ground that it was I'M
dignified to seek votes for the high Of
flee. His admirers Immediately began
pilgrimages to Canton where they were
addressed from the front porch of the
Mckinley home. In this manner more
than 300 speeches were made from
June 10 to Nov. ?. 1896, to more than
10000 strangers who came in special
excursion trains from all parts of the
country More than $4,000 came a the
opening of the speaking campaign and
nearly as large crowds on three other
great days. They tore down and car
ried away the wooden fences piecemeal,
but were always good natured.
In the succeeding election he received
a popular vote of 7104. 779. a plurality OF
601,s54 over his principal opponent, VIII
liam J. Bryan. He was inaugurated as
the twenty-fifth president of the United
States on March 4. 1897. Thenceforth
his political career is bound up with
the history of his country. The great
est event of his first administration was,
of course, the Spanish-American war.

endorsement of his policy by an over
whelrning plurality Of SAG, 400 votes on
the sixth day of November, 1900 are
still fresh in memory.
Whatever may have been said of
President McKinley's official actions,
his private life has always excited the

tended that in equity the board should
