A Merited Promotion.

The friends of William S. Nicely
will be pleased to learn that he l.
now "a second lieutenant in Uncle
Sans regular army.
Lieutenant Nicely is a son of Mrs.
Adelaide Nicely, of Ursula, Sebas-
tian county. In February, 1899, be
enlisted at st Louis as private in
the Sixth artillery and was sent to
St. Augustine, Fla. He was soon
made sergeant and went with the
regiment To Honolulu From there
he was ordered TO Manila, where he
has been on guard duty for the wall
ed city, Manila. Last June he was
examined for promotion and came
out second in a class of thirteen who
passed, aud only three per cent be-
low Harvard graduate. The COM
rades of his old battery presented
hum with a sword and other accoutre-
ments. His commanding officer,
Captain Todd, gave ''excellent" on
his discharge.
Lieutenant Nicely was assigned to
the Twenty-second Infantry, now at
the front in the Philippines. His
headquarters, when last heard from,
were at San Antonio, Neuva Ecija
Province.
The above is copied from an Ar
kansas paper of recent date. Lieu
tenant Nicely was born in this coun-
ty, near Whiteville, and is a son of
the late DIR. w. S. Nicely. He left
here when quite young and moved,
with his mother, to Arkansas. The
friends of his youth will learn with
pleasure of the record he is making
i'll the service Of his country.

AN APPROPRIATE CONCESSION.

Omaha Bee: The concession to the
veterans Of the war of 1861 of the
privilege of forming the escort to the
president for the inauguration cere-
monies i'll preference 10 tho veterans OF
the war with Spain is characterized as
particularly appropriate bccause it is
quite probable that Mr.. Mckinley
will be the last--of OUT presidents to
have served in that war.
1t is a notable evidence of American
history that with one exception every
man elected to the executive office
since the restoration of peace and
union had a war record made in the
defense Of the flag against secession.
The prestige gained by military SER
vice in response to the call Of the ma
ton when the union was in danger,
has unquestionably been IL Of the
chief factors in the making of our
presidents since that time. For the
future, however, people will hardly
find their leaders amongst the fast dis
appearing survivors of the war OF
1861. President Mckinley himself
was one of the youngest to enlist in
the volunteers; when he shall have
completed his term Of Office in 1905 he
will be GO years of age. While that
does not bring him much beyond the
prime of life, still the inevitable tend
ency in the selection of his successor
will be in the direction Of a younger
man, and few men younger than Mr..
Mckinley can point to creditable war
records dating from that period.
Whether service in the war with
! Spain will ever be regarded as the
same passport to public favor as is SER
vice in the war OF 1861 may be serious
ly doubted, although it is a question
that cannot be answered for many
years to come. The military hero
will ever be a popular idol, but the de-
mand for national leadership requires
more and more the craftsmanship that
can be developed only by public ser,
vice in the civil government as well.
The escort Of civil war veterans will
always have the place of honor in
every inaugural procession SO long as
the civil war veteran remains; but
the opportunity to escort a comrade tc
the inaugural platform may never
again cur

renominated in 1899, but party dis
sentions were responsible for his de-
feat by Cleveland. During the college
term Of 1894 he delivered lectures at
Stanford university. In 1896 he con-
tracted his second marriage, selecting
as his wife Mrs. Mary Scott Dimmick,
niece of his first wife. A daughter
was born to them the following year.
His last appearance in a semi-public
capacity calculated to attract more
than ordinary attention to himself was
in 1899, when lie appeared as counsel
for Venezuela before the AnglQ-Vene-
zuelan commission. Last year he was
appointed by President Mckinley as
one of the four American members Of

ence. 81

THE PRESIDENTS COMING.

For the second time the announce
lnent is made that President Mckinley
will make an extended tour of the
west and travel in leisurely way over
a large area of the United States with
which he has no personal acquaint-
ance. For the sake Of the pleasure
such a trip would prove to Mr.. Nc
Kinley and for the sake of the good
that will undoubtedly result to the
west from it, it is sincerely to be
hoped that he will not find it neces-
sary again to postpone his proposed
Itinerary, as he did on q former oc-
casion. The Gazette is of the opinion
that the trip will not only be the
source of much enjoyment and pleasure
to the president, but will also greatly
increase his store OF knowledge con-
corning. a portion Of the country of
which he knows no more than does the
average eastern man whose source of
information has been confined to
newspapers and conversations with
men from the west or those who have
visited it. He will have an oppor-
tunity to meet. and converse with it's
representative men of all shades of
political belief and by actual observa-
tion behold conditions as they exist
and discern its needs and requirements.
Could it be so arranged that num-
bers of eastern representatives and
senator's would accompany him the
results would be of even still greater
benefit to the west. They would
then see that many of the demands
made by the territory west Of the Mis-
souri, have been founded on right and
Justice and would return with broader
views and a more comprehensive
knowledge concerning a section which
to their minis seems to have no other
value than its ability to contribute
votes and occasionally help out in a
closely contested national election.
