and unifying national life are TO be credited
| to William McKnley's political leadership. His
| first Presidential campaign broke at last the
lines Of the Solid South, and his second showed
that the wedge driven into that crumbling fab
ric Of sectional passions and sectional pre1u-
dices had been driven in 10 stay. The war with
Spain FASTENED the process which the canvass
Of 1896 had so happily begun and the call OF
the government for troops reunited old foes In
war and politics under single flag.
But the first Mckinley administration did
more than merely soOthe old sectional resent
ments; ii uprooted two political issues
which had long been used to infame INTERNAL
dissensions-to set class against class and Sec
ton against section. The tariff question. when
had been artfully employed to array the agrl-
cultural against the manufacturing States, and
Southern interests against Northern interests,
ceased after the passage Of the Dingley act 10
be bone of partisan contention, while the Sill
yer question. which depended on to pit the
poor against the rich and the Far West and
South against the rest of the Union, dropped
with the election of 1900 out Of the category of
disturbing political problems.
Sectional praiudices beaten down and sec
tional questions thrust aside. American politi-
cal life has naturally entered its last and truest
national phase. In the train of our victory over
Spain new responsibilities and new opportunl-
ties have come which force the nation more
and more 10 forget internal distractions and 10
face the problems of our changed relationship
with the outside world. With the conclusion OF
the Treaty of Paris American energy felt itself
turned TO new tasks and new questions of state
craft. and a new ferment of national spirit has
signalized the final acceptance by the United
States of its true role one of the greatest
powers in the civilized world President Nc
K.nley's first administration promises to take
its color in history from the Paris convention
and the consequences flowing from that epoch
making instrument: and with this last rounded
development of American nationality his name
is certain TO be as fifty associated as Lncoln's is
with it's middle phase or Washington's is with
its earliest beginnings.

PRESIDENT WKINLEY.

Mckinley is dead. One of the best and best
beloved Of American Presidents has fallen a vie
tim TO the worst and most abllorred of evil
passions The nation is plunged into mourning
for him who had. through his patriotism. his
iabors and his wisdom. given ii cause for its
highest rejoicings The trusted leader under
whose benign administration the last scars OF
old fraternal strife disappeared unprecedented
prosperity was given 10 the whole land and the
power and fame of America were wondrously

vile Vaccinations of alien growth which
never should have had so much as a footllold
upon American soil.
AS we review his pure and lofty career liter
ally without fear and without reproach in pub
lie and in private life there comes a thrill of
pride at the thought that this man was an
American citizen. one Of the common people"
a typical product of our race. But as we
think Of the manner of his taking off IT is i'm
possible TO restrain a passionate disgust and
loathing at the thought that the soil upon
which such a man grew should be polluted
by the presence of even one single anarchist
The nation, bowed in grief for its irreparable
loss, offers TO Mrs. Mckinley. recently so near
TO death herself, now so brave and calm the as
surance Of its tenderest sympathy in her utter
desolation
Whether the President recovered or not from
his would-be murderers assault-an assault
from which of all men the broad humanity of
his character and purposes should have de-
tended him-his place was already secure in

THE POLE NOT YET REACHED.

The first emotion which the Eriks tidings Will
excite in many n breast will be one OF livery ais
appointment. Peary has not accomplished the
work on which his time thought and effort nave
been concentrated for ten years or more, ana
which has kept him in the arctic regions since
the summer of 1898 Yet there is occasion for
Joy in the fact that he has survived the peris to
which he has been subjected is in excellent
health and has not abandoned his mission. All
fears that had been entertained in regard to
Mrs Peary and the Windward which had not
been heard from since it left st. Johns for the
north last year are also set at rest And DR..
Stein and Mr.. Warmbath. who went up on the
Diana in 1899 to explore Ellesmere Land. are
reported to be safe. too. On the whole, there
fore there is much to be thankful for in this
budget of news.
About eighteen months have elapsed since
previous news was had from Peary. The latest
letters before those now brought down were dis
patched on March 80, 1900 and taken by Leo
pold Kann on Dundee whaer to Scotland.
These antedated the attempt of that year to
reach the pole Hence the Erik Is able to
port concerning the campaigns Of both 1900 and
1901. The former was conducted from the north
coast of Greenland, in accordance with PearyS
pet PLAN but brought to an unhappy con-
cluson by broken pack Ice and open water be-
fore the eighty fourth parailel was attained Inc
advance made this year from the Grinnell
Land side of the channel. Fort Conger having
constituted the winter camp of 1900-'01. 1t was
the explorers intention TO leave the land for
the ice at Cape Hecla but both his men and
dogs failed him before he got there. and he ac-
cordngly suspended operations for the season.
These disappointments are to be regretted for
many reasons. one of which is that they empha-
size the difficulties in the way Of getting to the
pole from this side, and are thus, to a certain
extent prophetic. Nevertheless, Peary has
practically unlimited supply of food and cour-
age and each years added experience gives him
a better understanding OF the work he has I'M
dertaken. 1t Is not unreasonable TO think there
fore that he may beat the record OF hansen and
AbruZzi before Baldwin does.

HOSTAGES ON RAILROAD TRAINS.

The old prescription for preventing railroad
accidents-to carry director OF the road on
the cowcatcher Of the locomotive-has never, so
far as are Informed, been practically applied.
In It's effectiveness there might be some conf
dence But there are certain obstacles In the
way OF trying it, such as the law and social
prejudices. A somewhat similar experiment is,
however. proposed In South Africa under the
convenient stress OF martial law, to wit, the
prevention of train wreckng by Beers by the
device OF carrying few representative Beers
a. involuntary passengers on every train.
The experiment may be an interesting one.

from a philosophical point OF view Practically.
however both the propriety and the profit Of it
oro ,.o,,a,v 70 he doubted. 1t is not quite clear
uzhothor tho Roers have been blowing up Ordi-
nary Messenger trains or only armored and
troop trains, and whether these Boer hostages
arc IN no carried on the former or on the latter.
If rho Roers have been blowing up ordinary pas
senper trains their conduct is absolutely indie
fensible for they are thus warning against non
combatants But if-aS is more prObable-they
have destroyed only military trains, it is not
clear that they have transgressed the legitimate
practices of war In the former case the carry
ing of Boer hostages on the trains might be
regarded as bit of reprisal scarcely less saw
age than the practice at which it was aimed.
In the latter case it would have not even that
fessed cruelty in which prisoners of war or non
combatants were put into deadly peril in order
to deter belligerents from fighting
If thus the prOpriety of the measure be
dubious on the score of morals it's expedency
is at least equally doubtful. 1t would be
regarded as an indication of British weakness
or Of inability to win the war by ordinary mill
tary means, and there can be no doubt that 1t
would provoke the Beers to further reprisas.
We are not sure that it would deter them from
attacks upon trains. If 1t did they would surely
make up for that restraint by greater violence
and ruthlessness in other directions. On the
whole, therefore, the proposed measure could
scarcely be regarded as creditable to British
arms. and on all grounds it must be hoped II
will not be put into execution.
