had an unusually extended experience
in public life. His independence of
thought thorough conviction of duty
and unstinting and unselfish devotion
to work when occupying the position
of national civil service commission
er, president of the New York City
police board, assistant secretary of the
navy (where he injected life into some
of the then fossils of that dpeartment) !,
and as governor of New York (where
he showed Thomas c. Platt his cour-
age to cut loose from the local ma
chine); his nervousness in admins
tering these offices, and his life of ac-
tivity as an officer of the Rough
Rider" regiment in its campaign in
the Cuban jungles, are all abundant
indications Of his qualifications for the
high Office to which fate has called
him.
Indeed, upon this day of almost
impenetrable national sorrow, the
people of the United States have
reason to feel profoundly thankful
that there was in the Vice Presidents
chair man of such force and strength
of character as Theodore Roosevelt

the expressed admiration of the civil

countrymen.
The shadow of his loss moves like
eclipse
Darkening the world. We have lost
him, he is gone.
We know him now; all narrow jeal-
ousies
Are silent; and We see him as he

How modest, kindly, all-accomplished,

With that sublime repression of him

And in what limits, and how tenderly.

fancy; in this home he commenced
the duties of life with simple means
and humble promise; such the charac-
ter and spirit he there maintained
through the passage of. years that in
1887 he led the bride of his youth from
this cottage to the executive mansion
at Washington as the first lady of the
land. What a train oil associations
must to her mind linger in that lonely,
silent house tonight. The nation can
never repay her for the life it has in
directly taken. Its tribute and hon.
age is no assuagcment for her grief,
offers no compensation for her loss.
If it were known why the memory
Of this man was so revered at this
time It would be found not due so
much to his attitude on the tariff and
money question by which, as we be.
lieve, lie has signally done so much
for the happiness of our people, as it
is due to his uniform courtesy, dignity

devotion to his feeble wife, to his

will be IGNORED and revered by the

PRESIDENT ROOSEvELT'S POL.
lCY

The decline of values on the vari-
GUS exchanges throughout the coun-
try following the death of the below
ed President Mckinley was very for
chile demonstration of the confidence
the business interests of the nation
reposed in his soundness of judgment
concerning the living issues of the
times. There may have been some
apprehension and fear upon the part
of these same interests that Theodore
Roosevelt in assuming the position of
chief executive of the nation as sue
cessor to President Mckinley would
| cut loose from the conservatism
which has marked the latter's policy
in all affairs of state coming before
him.
We doubt if such apprehension ex.
listed to any material extent. Certain
| ly Mr.. Roosevelt's wise utterance on
taking the oath of Office and his &C
/ ton in asking all the members of the
cabinet to remain have dispelled the
last vestige Of apprehension in any
quarter. 1t is true that Mr.. Roosevelt
with his forty years of life is young
man for the responsibilities about t.

bers to the United States senate. The
stronger the majority for the repub-
lican senators, the greater their in
fluence in the national councils.
The republicans OF Wapello county
have named thoroughly representa-
tive and in all respects an exceedingly
strong ticket. Headed as it is by the
names of Capt. S. H. Harper, candi-
date for senator, and Hon. A. w. Buch-
anan, candidate for reelection to the
house, the voters of Wapello county
have never had an opportunity to place
better men in these two respective po-
sitions. AS bearing upon the con-
gressional election next fall and thus
upon national politics it is a matter of
first Importance that Wapello county
should give clear-cut and unquestion-
ed republican majority for every can
didate on the county ticket
The Iowa republican campaign will
open at Centerville next Monday after
noon by an address by Hon. A. B
Cummins. From this day forward I'M
til election day it is the duty of the
people to give more. or less attention
to political matters and the republic
ans Of Wapello county should be ac
lively alert to the Importance of bring
| ing out the full vote of the party and
thus keep the county steadfastly in the
republican line.

REPUBLICAN DUTY.

The campaign in Iowa this year will
be short and largely one-sided. There
is not man, woman or child in the
state capable of forming an opinion
upon the subject, but knows that Hon.
A. B. Cummins and the entire repub
lican state ticket will be elected by a
strong majority. The only question
for the voters of the state to determine
is how large that majority shall be-
This question is an important one with
reference to counties like Wapello and
congressional districts like the sixth
Iowa, where there is always opportun
ity for a contest and necessity to put
up strong and vigorous fight. The
next legislature will elect two mem

of President Cleveland's cabinet, and

The Iowa alleged democracy, in

We're held over the remains of the
martyred President, William McKin-

til the remains are at last placed in

OLD SETTLERS ASSOCIATION

The reunion of the old settlers of
Wapello county held at Agency We'd
inesday marks the annual return of a
pleasant occasion of much interest to
the most respected and influential of
persons in the community. The years
go by so rapidly, so many of our
friends are passing from our side in
to the great unknown, that it is indeed
a pleasure and recreation for those
established or retired in life to meet
/ their neighbors at least once each
year and compare experiences and
observations; to drop cares and live
for one day over the Younger life gone
by.
The pathetic feature of such meet
4 ngs is found in the reading of the re-
port of the historian, which report re-
viewed at Wednesdays gathering was
startling in that it showed that ninat ",
I six members of the association had
