MARCUS A. HANNA.

Marcus A. Hanna, the great COM
mercial and political leader, is dead.
having passed away at his rooms at
the Arlington hotel in Washington
Monday evening at $40 CLOCK. For
several days his family and intimate
friends realized that the inevitable end
was near, though the attending physi-
clans adopted all artificial means to
prolong the hours of the dying states
man. Funeral services were held at
the senate chamber yesterday at noon
and the body was afterwards taken to
Mr.. Hanna's home city, Cleveland.
where services will be held for the
family and friends and old neighbors
and associates of Mr.. Hanna to-mor-
row.
Marcus Hanna was perhaps the best
and at the same time the least known
man in the United States. When he
espoused the election of his warm
friend, William Mckinley, in 1896, the
whole nation was rent in twain by the
free silver cry and public feeling for
time transcribed the bounds of caution
and prudence. It was then that
Hanna, demonstrated himself a politi-
cal chieftain and a wise leader. He
was little known then and was looked
upon by many as some great god Of
greed that had been reared up on a
pedestal for the people to worship.
Hanna alone did not win the fight for
sound money, busy factories and Will
liam Mckinley, but he contributed in
a large measure to the success of the
Republican party in that memorable
campaign. In 1900 as chairman of the
national Republican committee he
again was forced to meet the American
people face to face and this time it
was trusts and the horrible nightmare
of empire that infamed the public
mind. Hanna made a trip through
the west during that campaign and
his frank heart-tO-heart talks with his
fellow citizens at once won him the
confidence and esteem of many who
formerly looked upon him as a de-
vouring lion. He was man of great
force of character, with strong con-
victions, and very pronounced likes
and dislikes. Intrenched in his con-
victions he was almost immovable.
His Judgment as to the speedy or ulti-
mate disposition of great issues was
considered safe and he possessed the
confidence of most of the party lead
ers. He was appointed United States
senator in 1897 by Gov. Bushnell of
Ohio to serve out John Sherman's
term and was elected to the senate in
1898 and reelected by the Ohio legis-
lature last month. Senator Hanna
was the friend of labor. He employed
thousands of men with whom he al
ways dealt with great consideration
and respect. He was one of the organ
izers of the Civic Federation of Labor
in which he took great interest. In an
article on "Socialism and Labor
Unions' in the February National
Magazine, he treated in very inter-
esting manner of the relationships
between labor and capital. In clos
ing he said: II wish I could impress
upon every American the individual
responsibility that rests upon each
one of US. Every year of experience,
every dollar of accumulated capital,
every talent we possess should be
regarded as a sacred charge for the
good of the nation, to help in uniting
the interests of rich and poor, learned
and unlearned.'

Retrospective and Prospective.

Mr.. Dunn's twenty or more years OF
public life have earned for him the
reputation of being an independent,
bold, fearless and honest champion OF
the people. He has been tried many
times and the people love and respect
him for the record he has made and
any deliberate attempt to belittle his
public services, impugn his motives,
or question the honesty or sincerity
of his word, will be resented by thou
sands Of citizens throughout the State
who know Bob Dunn and who intend
to honor him for what he has done.

carry Hennepin or split the delegation.
He will have St. Louis county, Mile

Why is it that the Collins crowd
does not quote some facts to substan-
tiate the claim that he, Collins, is
more man of the people than is Bob
