MCKINLEY WILL RECOVER.

a complete story of the assassination of
President Mckinley will be found on the
inside pages.
The first hours after the shooting were
very anxious ones for the whole of the
American people, as well as to the at
tending physicians. After the first day
the kilograms began to be more and
more hopeful, and by Monday began to
assume the certainty OF recovery, and at
this writing the doctors believe the pres
ident to be completely out OF danger and
recovering as rapidly as could be expect
ed.
One shot went through both walls of
the stomach and lodged in the muscles
of the back. This bullet has not been
recovered and the doctors say it will pro-
badly not give Mr.. Mckinley any trouble.
A cut five inches in length through which
the holes in the stomach were sewed up
and these the doctors are satisfied have
already nearly healed, as the patient has
been given food which digested without
NAAASOlSys
There is universal thanksgiving in the
whole nation on the prospects of COM
plete and speedy recovery of the presi-
dent.
The assassin is well guarded at Buffa-
10, and the police have arrested quite a
number of anarchists in different cities,
including half dozen in Chicago, and
Emma Goldman, who is said to be the
high priestess of anarchy in this country,
for conspiracy to murder the president.
The newspapers make many broad
statements as to proofs OF conspiracy Of
these people. but we doubt if this IS
much more then shrewd guesswork on
their part. II is probable that the police
are not Publishing all they know at this
!. time.
Pictures of the prisoner published: in
the dailies show weak but not wicked
face.

enemies admire the ability with which
Mr.. Mckinley has steered the ship, and
kept it free from the rocks on either side,
and acknowledge that we are now sailing
through comparatively calm seas, with
the flag flying higher and more proudly
than ever before. And, probably, even
we, who have helped more or less, to
make this later history, do not realize
what it all portends. 1t will take the
events and the judgment of the future to
give Mckinley and the results of his adj
ministratlon their proper place.
*x*
The anxiety and sympathy of the peo-
pie has been equally extended between
the president and his frail wife. 1t has
been we'll understood that for many
years, it was his unremitttng attention
and strong influence that has kept her
alive. All realized that the bullet of the
assassin equally endangered her life as
we'll as his. His first thoughts and words
after the shooting were for her. Doubt
less that thought for her, which has been
so constant in all the years of his strong
manhood, will in his weakness, still nerve
him to struggle for that lite which seems
SO necessary to her existence, and thus,
her very weakness will be strong factor
in restoring hl,n to health.
What can be done to punish the assas-
sin? Technically, if the president lives,
the crimes is assault with intent to kill,
punishable in New York by ten years in
the penitentiary. Of course such a
punishment for such atrocity is in
adequate. 1t seems to us that crime
against the president is treason, whether
the law definitely states it or not. The
assassin himself declares he did not
shoot Mckinley but at the president and
the government. He represents society
who have declared war against this and
all other governments. Undoubtedly,
there is weak place in our laws that
will be remedied at the ensuing session
of congress. High officials are marks
for anarchistic assassins, and therefore
should have special personal protection
under the law.

FUTURE RELATIONS
Between Cuba and the United States Still
Unsettled.

Havana, Feb. 2l.-The special COM
mittee appointed by the Cuban consti-
tutional convention to draw a PROPOSE
ton defining the future relations be-
tween the United States and the Re-
public of Cuba continues in session.
1t is understood that majority
favor leaving the question open until
the signing of the constitution, which
is now being engrossed. The commit
tee is expecting Gov. Gen. Wood to
send an official letter setting forth what
he considers the relations should be, so
that the convention may act with a
better understanding of the desires OF
the United States.
Gen. Wood says that he tod the
special committee last week to inform
the convention that he represented the
policy of the executive department at
Washington and that he could not say
how congress would act in the matter.
Any communication which he may
address to the committee will be on
these lines.

A PET FLAMINGO.
Queer Favorite of an Army Officer
That Resented All At
teDtiOns.

"When I was down in Cuba" said Del
egate Flynn, of Oklahoma, to a writer
in the Washington Post, 81 heard a
good story about an army officer and a
fianingo. A hamingo? Why, it is a
bird of beautiful red plumage which
abounds in the tropics. Well to con-
time, | heard of post commandant
who, like all other post commandants,
was not popular. He had two fads.
First, he believed in whitewash and
plenty of it, asserting it to be the most
effective preventive of tropical diseases
ever discovered. His second fad was
IN apparently unreciprocated attach
ment to a pet fiamingo, who resented
being kept in captivity and who showed
his resentment by nipping at every sol
der who passed his way. On the part
of the soldier there was nothing to do
but swear under his breath and wait
for revenge. On certain Monday
morning an order was issued from
headquarters that all articles pertain
ing to the camp which were not shell
tered from the weather should be
whitewashed. No one who knows tho
American soldier" added Mr.. Flynn
"needs further information. When
saw the fiamingo he was as white as the
driven snow. The chances are that the
bird will survive the operation, but he
will hardly outlive the post command
ants wrath"
