The Butte inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1901-1912, 1901-09-28

In answer to this brazen denial OF
what every reader Of the Journal knows
are the facts. the following expressions
of that paper, published only shor,
time before the assassination, are quoted
in proof Of the charges:
McKinley's fat white hand has tossed
to the starving American peasant the
answer out Of the white house window.
"a trust can do no wrong"
Has assassination ever changed the
worlds history? We invite our readers
to think over this question.
The following was one of the Journals
Washington dispatches:
Washington, Feb. A. The
bullet that pierced Goebels chest cannot
be found in all the west: good reason.
1t is speeding here to stretch Mckinley
on his bier.
The above are fair samples Of yellow
journalism. The effect Of such stuff on
the minds Of the vicious and ignorant
requires no elaboration.

"Problems for whose solution there
was no precedent challenged him. Q tidal
wave of untempered enthusiasm broke
upon the calm presidential purpose,
coarse lamroons degraded the public
prints: yet he went his way and admin
istered his office as the representative Of
q great people. He was strong enough to
keep silent amid attack. and when the
skies cleared the ship of state was found
sailing upon a larger mission and bound
for nobler port than those who launch
ed her had dreamed. -
Hate as a beasts or devils sought
to level him TO earth and strip hins OF
his renown. Then the character OF the
man showed itself.
LET us be grateful to God for such
man as Theodore Roosevelt to succeed
our murdered president. AS for the
assassin let his name be written in let
ters Of water. There are men who drink
to the health Of such as he and jeer' at
all. yet seek the protection OF the law
from the popular wrath. The civiliza-
ton which has bred them must seek to
Danish them. They must learn the irwin
cibility of righteous power"

Among all people assuming to be quite
civilized. the old practice of criticising
in an unfriendIy spirit those who are
absent is regarded as a mark OF hopeless
ill breeding. Prior to a few years ago
an important topic OF some converse was
the failings and failures Of absent ac-
quaintances. Education and the cult
vat;on of the instincts Of common de-
cency and a desire mos, people have to
be regarded as ladies and gentlemen
have put s,n end to that sort of verbal
recreation The man or woman whose
conversation consists OF an exchange of
caustic opinions about their friends
weaknesses is promptly placed under
the ban Of social ostracism and con-
tempt. It requires no brains at all to
find fault with other people, since none
of us are perfect. Any fool can say
a mean thing about an absentee. The
most ignorant and depraved persons are
the readiest to resort to vicious gossip
for lack Of better conversational re-
sources. Those who berate others are
only advertising their own capacity
either to conceive or express intelligen.
thought, and so it has come to pass
that bright people who would retain a
position in society or command the re-
spect of their cultured friends must
either speak pleasantly OF others or say
nothing about them. The gossip, the
backbiter, the carping critic. the dealer
in petty scandal is no longer welcome
anywhere among progressive and liberal
minded men and women. They are on
the same social plane as those who give
card party without prizes, or put
Scotch whisky in their water or teach
their children to say. Ma, the carriage

the LATE PRESIDENT CHARACTER.

In New York church last Sunday
DR.. Duffield, noted and eloquent divine.
pronounced this beautiful eulogy upon
the late president:
God gave this nation a great man to
lead 1t. He especially trained and en-
dowed Mr.. Mckinley for his large and
arduous task. In his ancestry God
blended two great social traits which in
coordination yield notable and masterful
character. United in him were the Scotch
tenacity of purpose like the granite un-
der the heather. with the bright ideals
and the fine fire of Celtic feeling. God
caused him to pass his childhood in a
humble home where he felt the pinch of
economy and learned the lesson of self
denial.
I'm his earliest years he was not
screened from contact with the worlds
woe. but tasted its bitterness, learned to
rise superior to it and became fired with
the longing to minister to it. At the out
set he learned that the truest nobility at
tainable by man is to make the path of
others smooth, their cup less bitter, and
to plant flowers in this too sour world.
God schooled him in patriotism, gave
him the love of true woman's heart,
that gift in the casl1et of heaven so
priceless, so fiawless, and introduced
him to the halls of congress. There he
became the student of measures which
were the foundation of a nations pros
perity and OF nations destiny. He
grew skilled in discerning the popular
will. He listened to all men and then
acted as his judgment dictated.

"One of the most doleful sights posi-

in the form of a steamer lying off the

aired his views in laundering articles.
AS is generally the case. the sultan pre-

NAILED TO the CROSS

The yellow press is writhing and
abusive under the weight of public in
dignation and contempt which find ex-
preston in decent newspapers of both
parties in all states of the Union. The
New York Journal charges that the jeal-
ousy on the part of other papers prompts
the latter to join in the attack 1t denies
that it ever used language likely to in
cite public disorder or encourage MUIR
derous assaults upon the representatives
OF the government. 1t insists that it
never pandered to the prejudice of the
ignorant by holding President Mckinley
personally responsible for the cares and
misfcrtunes of humanity. and that II
held him up as an oppressor of the Door
. creature of capital and an enemy OF
his countr:mcn.

If the men who devised the fortunes
of the old Spanish inquisition in the
long ago neglected to utilize the SER
vices Of the men who told long stories
or repeated old ones, thar that ancient
institution lacked one importan. element
Of success. In all stages OF human his
tory the man with l:ng story, which
he repca l., on every occasion, has en-
numbered the earth to its serious disad-
vantage as place of residence. He still
lives and his stories remain the same.
He never learns new one nor fOrgets
an old enc. He plays no favorites, but
tells his chestnEts to all who will listen.
Like Mark Antony, he is always trying
to borrow the ears of the public. His
object is not to give others pleasure. but
to kill time for himself. The statutes do
not provide punishment for the man
who buttonholes his friends and in the
porches of their ears .pours his oft-told
tales, but modern craftsmanship will
yet abate him. Do you not, gentle
reader, suffer from the vendor of moss
grown anecdotes whose origin can be
traced 10 the Dawn OF history, having
proceeded from the mythical period OF
unrecorded time? What unborn genius
will be able successfully to grapple with
the monster who goes about button
holing every unarmed man and repeat
ing stories which the latter has heard
almost daily since he was an infant,
muling and puking on his mothers
knee? In this bright and busy world
every newborn moment should usher
into existence a new idea. There is no
room for the repeater of stale plati-
tudes, yet he is omnipresent. He ap-
pears on the stump, in the pulpit, in the
sanctum and on the street, and invades
even the sacred precincts of the home
circle. He who should be nowhere is
everywhere. He is irrepressible. His
mission in the economy of nature no in
vestigator has discovered. He is one
of the worlds nuisances, but let US call
philosophy too our aid-if we can not
cure him, let's endure him.

M'KINLEY'S FIRST SPEECH.

On dry goods box. four feet long
three feet wide and three feet high
President Mckinley made his first politi-
cal speech in the little town of New Ber-
lin, way back in '65. The box stood in
front of a house which has since burned
down. and just inside the gate of a
wooden fence within 100 feet of the four
corners of the business center. The
man who introduced him to his first aud
fence lives in a new brick house, built
within ten feet of the location Of the
dry goods box which supported the pres
ident on that memorable night. The
benches In front of the postoflIce, next
door. furnish resting place for the old
politicians who here gather to get their
mai ldaily and talk over the most nota-
BILE event in New Berlin's history. made
notable by the achievement Of the boy
orator. Mckinley, in succeeding years.
Can you make a speech?" said
Michael Bitter to William Mckinley
when the speaker arrived from Canton
ready to follow Judge Underhill upon
the improvised stage.
Michael Bitter was chairman Of the
meeting. He is now SO years old, but he
remembers the night he introduced Nc
tinley as if it We're happening of yes
terday. The somewhat unexpected re-
mark of the chairman of the meeting
to the young man who was to make his
debut before a large audience rather
took his breath away for a moment but.
on the assurance of Judge Underhill
that Mr.. Bitter meant no Offense, he re-
gained his pleasant face, showing th1
kind disposition which was SO character
istic of him.
could he speak," said Michael. "Well
l should say he could. Everybody was
simply dumbfounded. For nearly an
hour he talked as never young man in
Stark county had talked before. l told
Judge Underhin, who accompanied him
after the meeting, that Mckinley did a
blamed sight better than he did, and the
judge. too, pronounced him coming
politician.
II really was surprised when Judge
Tnderhill introduced that young strip 0.
a boy to me. saying that he had come tc
make speech in place of another judge
who was unable to be present OF
course l only asked Mckinney in a joke
if he could make speech. 1 spoke tt
him much as l would to a boy. but
really did have my doubts about such a
sion.
Mr. Bitter introduced him as William
Mckinley of Canton. He little thought
he was introducing the coming presiden,
Of the United States.
Mckinley arose and looked over the
audience. There was not sign Of tbs
emotion on his part which usually at
tends the first speech OF a speaker. In
stature he was not portly and strong as
he afterward became. In fact, he was
not even as tall.
But" said Mr.. Bitter, "as I remem-
Der him, the same strong characteristics
which became so notable in his public
life within the last few years stood out
forcibly on that night"
He spoke under the glimmer of the
street lighted by lamps, for that was be
fore the days of electric lights. His
strong personality and kindly manner
were noticed by the people of New Ber-
lin. His hearty handshake, his pleasan;
smile, were all there only waiting for ar
opportunity and strength of purpose to
develop 'them.-St. Louis Republic.

but in n New haven daily. and all point
with the claiming finger OF suspicion at
these alleged professionals who IL is
claimed have sold their amatuer bith-
right for hire.
Now Il only requires pencil and pa
per and transposition OF the gray mat
ter TO make such accusations but IL is
quite another thing 20 prove II. These
men who were hit by the accusing stone
claim that the various articles were in
spired by disordered mind and were the
result of n hailucination and that az far
as professionalism is concermned they
are as purely as the virgin snow.

they would have rejected it with col
legian scorn. or course they have
sported summer mines uniform but IL

shattered. and they were very desirous OF
recupersting In some unquestioned spot.
Notwithstanding the threatened ex-
posure the player are very confident OF
the result. and snap their fingers In the
