Physician; but dreadlng that he would
insist on using the knife, would not
consent to go. Instead, got Cuticura
kesolvent and Cuticura Ointment. I
.ook the former according to dlrec'
Hons, and spread a thick layer of the
IMMINENT on the swelling. On renew

daughter of d. p. Rhodes, who was en-
gagged in the coal and iron trade. In
time the grocery business, even the
large wholesale business which it
had become, was too circumscribed to
confne the energies of young Hanna,
and he entered the firm of Rhodes d
Co., as junior partner. Ten years
later he was the senior partner. and
the firms style was changed to NJ.
A. Hanna Il Co., in which form it ex-
listed at the time of Mr.. Hanna's death.
With Mr.. Hanna at its head, the firms
growth was marvel, even in region
of marvellous industrial activities. In
time it came to own iron and coal mines,
steamship lines. railroads, docks and
furnaces, and Mr.. Hanna was reckoned
many times a millionaire. He did much
for the upbuilding of the city, where for
more than half a century he had his
home; was the president and chief ow-
ner of street railroad system, the presi-
dent and chief owner of bank, and was
at the head OF many other industrial en-
terprises.
The only interruption to Mr.. Hanna's
business activity, until politics inter
rupted it, was when the civil war broke
out. He enlisted as private under the
hundred day call of President Lincoln,
and had the will to see the conflict to the
end. Before his first enlistment expired,
however, his father died, and family OBJ
legations made it seem imperative that
he should return home and take up his
fathers business. Senator Hanna always
was very modest about his military SER
vice and never reckoned himself as
among the saviors of the union. Long
after he had become a national figure,
the public was in ignorance of the fact
that be had been a soldier. 1t first be-
came generally known only few years
ago, when, in response to the importun-
ings of his friends and neighbors, he be-
came member of Grand Army post in
Cleveland.
Mr.. Hanna's first political Office, and
the only one be ever held until he became
Senator, was membership on the Cleve-
land board of education, to which he
was elected in 1870. The general public
first heard of Mr.. Hanna when he under
took the pre-cenvention campaign for the
nomination of Mr.. Mckinley, as the re-
publican candidate for President, in
1895 and 1896. But for twenty years
prior to that time he had been influential
in the politics of Ohio. In 1884 be was
a delegate to the republican national con-
venlion, and in 1888 he again was a
delegate and chairman of the Ohio dele
cation, being recognized as the conven-
ton manager of John Sherman $ candi-
dacy for the presidential nomination.
The friendship between Mr.. Mckin-
ley and Mr.. Hanna extended over 3
period of many years, and was founded
on mutual admiration and respect. Am

these attacks used to provoke in Mr..
Hanna violent fits of anger, but at last
he came to accept abuse as part of the
days work, and his traducers lost the
power to disturb his equanimity.
Despite Mr. Hanna's repeated avowals
that be was not and would not become
candidate for the republican nomina-
ton for President, his admirers in all
the States Of the union persisted in the
mention of his name in that connection.
Ofall'of Mr. Hanna's achievements,
he took the greatest pride in the success
of the Civic Federation, which had for
its object the bringing about of more har-
monious relations between capital and
labor. II was his intention to make this
his chieflife work, and he frequently de-
clared that he preferred the bOnors he
believed awaited him in this field to any
honors that could come to him as Presi-
dent.
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1904-02-16

bition took Mr.. Hanna into the arena oi
national politics in 1895, but not self
ambition. In was a time Of great
industrial depression, business was
at standstill, and the people
were distracted by conflicting counsel
Mr.. Hanna believed that William Nc
Kinley was pre-eminently the man for
the hour, that his elevation to the presi-
dency, carrying with it rehabilitation
of the policies for which Mckinley stood,
meant a restoration of confidence and a
return to prosperous days. Ii was a
labor, therefore, both of love and duty
which Mr.. Hanna undertook when he
set about to force the rulers of the re-
publican party to accept Mckinley as
their candidate, against their Judgment
and their inclinations.
He succeeded in this as he had sue
ceeded in other undertakings. When
the convention had nominated McKin-
lev, Hanna was ready to return to his
business, being satisfied that his work
was done. But the logic of the situ-
alton demanded that he should carry to
its contamination the battle which so
far he had wsged, and they made him
chairman of the republican national
committee.
Mr.. Hanna's appointment to the Sem
ate by Coy. Bushnell was followed by
his election by the Ohio legislature, in
January, 1898, to fill the unexpired term
of Mr.. Sherman, and also for the full
term of six years. Mr.. Hanna had been
indorsed for Senator BY the republican
convention of Ohio, and the campaign
was made largely on the issue OF his
election.
Senator Hanna retained the chairman
ship of the national committee, and in
1900 managed the campaign for the re-
election of President Mckinley.
Throughout the memorable campaign
1896 and the years Immediately follow
ing it Mr.. Hanna was subjected to such
flood of personal abuse as few men are
called upon to endure. Cartoonists
loved to picture him as monster with
only the semblance of human form. A
favorite caricature was TO portray Mr..
Hanna as ow-browed brute, with ami
mal-like features, dollar marks on his
clothing, and about his feet the bleached
bones of perished victims of his greed
and cruelty. In him, it was represen-
ted, the money devil found its incarna-
ton as a greedy and rapacious employer
of labor. it was declared, he bad wrung
from the sweltering brows and quivering
flesh of old men and little children the
money wherewith to buy the most sI-
alted of human places as bauble for his
creature.
Mr.. Mckinley was saved from much
personal abuse, but at Mr.. Hanna par
tisan hate hurled its mostvenomousd darts.
In all the lexicon of vituperation there
is nothing which he escaped. At first
