said:
"Onlv once has this method Of inccn-
d,arv abuse Wrolcht ont its natural
consequence in the murder of Presi-

tibet and vile cartoons. the readers of
the Journal were Taught to believe that
Mckinley was a monster in human
form. whose taking off would be a SER
vice 10 mankind. Let me quote some of
these teachings:
".Mchi nley condones the treacEer-
Gus murder of our sailors at Havana
and talks uf his confidence in the hon
or Of Spain. He plays the coward and
sniverS white faced at the football of
apyroachng war. He makes an interna-
tfonal cur of his country. He is an abb
iect. weak, futile, incompetent pol
troon.'
Mckinley. who is no moro or less
than Il living. breathing crime in
breecllcs. is, therefore the most de-
spisau and hated creature in the hem
isphcre; his name is hooted; his fig
lire is burned in ehigy.'

"And this. in April 1901:
Institutions. like men. will last un-
til th.v die, and if bad institutions and
bad men can BE- got rid of only by kill
ing. tien the killing must be done
"What wonder that the weak and ex-
citable brain Of Czolgosz answered to
such impulses as these" said the
speaker.
'IIc never knew Mckinley; he had no

Of McKinlcy's death? The same kind of
teaching is being continued now month
by month and day by day by Hearst's
journals. Its legitimate consequence il
continued must be other weak dupes
playing tho role of CZoGosZ, other Nc
kinlcys stretched upon the bier; discord
and bloody strife in place of the reign of
peace and order throughout our fair
land. 1t is not the spirit of Washington
and of Lincoln; it is the spirit Of malice
for all and charity towards none: it IS
the spirit Of anarchy. of communism OF
