Today at Canton, Ohin, at the
hour or noon. the mortal remains
of William Mckinley, the swenty
fifth president of the United States,
were consigned To their fiual rest
ing place, in the bosom OF Mother
Earth Amidst ali the stately
ceremonies of state funeral, tie
last sad rites were performed, and
orr president was PM away from
martial sight. brought Ia an M
iim,-i. grave by the wanton hand
az the assassin. And even his
most iItter opponent cannot now
fad word but of regret that his
lie >iuuld thus hive endfd His
tragic death has dlSarmed criticism,
and naught bus good today can be
thOaght or spoken of omr dead
president, who, take him all liz all g,
was a manly man, kind of heart,
true and loyal aud brave. He met
lis death with rare Christian for
titade, which has won for him the
admiration of all. May God spare
the nation the pain of ever again
iueribing upon its annals repe-
tition of the shocking tragedy of
which the sad interment at Canton
today was the sad result. May
the tears which bedew the sod that
now rests above the inanimate form
Of William Mckinley touch The
hearts of the enemies of govern
ment through whose instrumental
ity he was laid there and cause
them to repent and sin no more.
II his death be the means Of rid
ding his country of dread anarchy,
CT awakening the disciples of this
school of evil to the enornity of
their doctrines, and cause them to
renounce such vile teachings, then
il may he said that after all his
sacrifice was not in vain, that in his
matyrdOm he has accomplished
more for his country than llv =
he might ever have done.

The trouble with most,lf not all &,
anarchists seems to be general
disorder of the liver. They are
disconte nted, dissatisfied with the
ruling orders of things; they are
pessimists. No doubt,a good dose
Of blue- mass to relieve the congest-
ed condition of their system and
arouse the circulation would give
their ideas a healthier tone. As
for those, whose sentiments fail to
such treatment, little strychnine
would be about the best thing for
them. 1t is the best remedy known
to rid country of dangerous and
pestifeious animals.

The Final Inspection.

Denver, Col, Feb. 27.-The Post
says: The final inspection of the Den
yer & Rio Grande railroad before the
sale to the eastern syndicate began
Tuesday. President e. T. Jeffery and
General Manager Metcalfe of the Den
yer q Rio Grande left Denver at that
time in a special train with right of
way over the entire system. The two
men will note carefully the condition
of the tracks and rolling stock; will
take cognizance of all improvements
and the condition of the property
owned by the road along the line.
Then they will fix price upon the
system in accordance with certain gen.
eral instructions from the board of di-
rectors in New York. The two mems
estimate of the roads value will
doubtless be the price which the rail-
way combination will pay for the Den
yer e. Rio Grande. Only the magnates
know who will own the Denver e. Rio
Grande a fortnight hence. But there
is every reason in the opinion of local
railroad men to believe that all Colo
RADIO lines will soon be under the con-
troll of one syndicate in which the New
Workers will be supreme.

with difficulties thickening around
them, that they dare not defy this
country, much less Europe. Russia is
