which adhere to the membrane and decom-
pose, causing far more serious trouble than
the ordinary form of catarrh. Avoid all dry

THE NATIONS LOSS.

Last Saturday the telegraph
flashed the news throughout the
country from Buffalo that Presi-
dent Mckinley had succumbed 20
the wound made by the assassin's
bullet a week and a day previous,
and crossed the Dark River. The
end came at 2:I5 Saturday morn
ing, and the news was doubly sad
owing to the fact that up to the
day before his death the world
had been given to understand that
all danger was past and the Presi-
dent was on the high road to re-
covery.
There is not a true American
in the land but whose heart is sore
over the loss of so good and true
an American as was William Nc
Kinley, and the bereaved widow
and relatives have the deep SYM
pathy of the nation.
The remins of the deceased were
taken to Washington, where they
lay in State for a time before ia
ken to Canton, where the funeral
took place from the Mckinley res
idence and the last sad rites were
performed after hosts of people
had viewed for the last time the
face of their beloved President
and fellow citizen.
The period of mourning will
last long in the American hearts,
and never will the assassin and
those who melted him to his mad
deed be forgiven.

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT, in his
remarks upon assuming the office
of Chief Elective of the nation,
has given evidence that he is more
of a statesman than many people
have given him credit for being,
and also that he is possessed of an
abundance of common sense. Mr..
Roosevelt will make no changes
in the Cabinet, nor will any of the
late Presidents policies be chang
ed. Throughout the trying ordeals
of the past two weeks Mr.. Roose-
welt has shown himself to be a
man of rare tact and capability,
and that he will carry out all plans
adopted by Mckinley for the we'll
fare of the country cannot be fol-
a moment doubted.

In the absence of the president of the

Mr.. Bundy, conferred with the District
Commissioners, the president of the tele-
phone company and the District commit

standing which, it is believed, will accom-
phsh the object of the association to pre-
vent the further erection in the territory.
Authority, it is stated, will be given the
company to lay wires in conduits, no ad-
ditional poles to be erected within the fire
limits north Of Florida avenue, and all dis
tributng poles are to be erected in alleys.
1t was also stated that an agreement had
been reached for the removal of the poles
on Chaplin street to an alley parallel to
that thoroughfare.
The proper committee was directed to
urge the extension of either the 9th or the
11th street railway line along 18th street
at the earliest practicable time. Mr.. Nc
Calmont addressed the association on the
Importance of the association having an
active committee on legislation, saying
many urgent matters of vital interest to
the citizen might be pressed upon the at
tention of Congress by such q committee.
The resolution, at the suggestion of Mr.
McCalmont, was tabled for discussion at
some future meeting
