~ Ig4 ~
shnede Of horror through the length and breadth
OF the land when the flashed the wires that
President Mckinley had been assassinated Three times
has the nation been called upon to such an cur
renee and it is probable that the assaan Of President
Mckinley had less ground for his cruel and nhuman
action than either the assassin of Lincoln Garfield In
the first place, the murderer infamed with all the
hatred growing out Of one of the bterest wars ever
fought, and took the life of man, who. had he been
spared would probably have saved the South from much
OF the misery that defeat and deenseessness brought
on her, In the second the assassin wreched half
responsible creature diseased in mind and body, and
prompted TO bis act probably by purely imaginary per
sona wrongs. What manner of is responsible for
the attack President Mckinley what reason he may
give for his act is yet unknown and is unwise to
speculate The that be said in the first flush of
such amentabe to express horror at the
crime and grief for it's consequences and to acknowledge
the high and admirable character of the victim; his
ices to the nation the of loss which his death
produces. There has been nothing in the public life of
President Mckinley which could possibly provoke de-
gree of animosty which would lead to his murders and it
most improbable that the who shot him could have
been actuaed by any personal enmity Insanity is the
,ny reasonable explanation of the act The unfortunate
unatc mscreant whichever he may be- has been cap
ured, and his reason for committing the crime will be
waited with interest The President is still living with
