Mekinley's Memory for Faces.

The New York Morning Telegraph
prints this interesting story concern
ing President Mckinley:
Perhaps one of the reasons for
President McKinley's popularity" said
w. S. Hart, the Cash Hawkins, Of
THE Squaw Man." who will play Dus-
tin Farnum's part in THE virginian"
next season, was his remarkable
memory Of faces.
II was leading man for Nine Rhea
several years ago when Mr.. Mckinley
was governor Of Ohio. AItho am a
tall man, in one of the plays appeared
as Napoleon. 1t does not matter how
/ made myself look small so as to look
like Napoleon. I sat most Of the time
thru the play, and when / did stand up
I shrunk myself down and no other
actor was allowed to come close to me-.
Governor Mckinley saw the play,
and after the performance he came
back on the stage and paid his re-
spects to Nine. Rhea. He asked for
the actor that played the part Of Ma
poleon, and he and conversed long
time about the great French soldier
in whom the governor seemed very
much interested, pFoUdUly peSduSe ne
had been told so many times that he
looked like him.
When Governor Mckinley left me I
said to him: Governor, the next time
l see you I hope it will be in Wash
ington'-he was being doomed for
President at that time.
"The following Spring I was in
Washington and Mckinley was presi-
dent. was standing with a group of
men in the street one afternoon when
we heard some cheering, and some one
cried that the president was driving
in carriage toward US. There was
some excitement, and we all lined up
on the curb to give him cheer. His
carriage turned up toward us and he
was slowly driven a few feet away, so
near that we could have shaken his
hand Now had seen him only once
months before, yet the minute his eyes
met mine he smiled and leaned out Of
the carriage and said: We'll, you see
the next time we meet is ip Washing
tom"

Topics Of the Times

June has been more prolific of red
noses than of red roses.
Since Cummins has been announced
as candidate Tor the senate. peace
conferences and thoughts Of disarma-
ment have been banished from Sioux
City.
While the "favorite sons" are get
ting into action over presidential pos
sibilities, the general public seems to
prefer the role of innocent bystander.
Joaquin Miller wants to go to the
United States senate from Oregon. The
state should remember that poets and
plutocrats are both dangerous.
1t would be foolish for Japan to
force the United States to whale her
out of her boots simply because a
tough kicked a coolie in San Francisco.
1t is not that the scrub woman de-
serves less for stealing the soap but
that the express companies deserve
more.
And June was once considered a pic
mic month. Fie on the weather man!
Secretary Taft is to drop in on Japan
during his forthcoming trip to the
orient, talk things over with the mi
kado and leave the Japs all throwing
kisses at San Francisco.
A cold. late spring in Iowa. Even
presidential bees have a chilly time at
tempting to swarm.

person of Secretary Taft when he was
in Iowa-Cedar Rapids Republican.
+ Well, what of it? Taft hasn't missed
anything, has he?

Day really sacred and to bring it back
to the character it was intended to
have by those who labored for its OBJ
servance is growing. Kansas has a
law forbidding athletic games and cir
Gus performances; New Jersey is likely
to have one soon, and there is some
chance that the measure may be
passed during the present session A
suggestion has been made in New York
that the best way out OF the difficulty
is to repeal the law making May 80
a legal holiday. tits contended that
all those who now observe the day out
of respect for its traditions could not
do soft it were not a. legal holiday, and
it would be easy to substitute another
day as a general spring holiday.

IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES.

Remarking that the Iowa seed deal
ers are Directing to the pure seed law
because they say that it gives outside
grades Of seeds, containing weed seeds
and undersell them, the Newton Rec
ord suggests ut will be a good oppor-
tunity for the Iowa seed men to put a
first -class article on the market and
than try the virtues of a live advertis-
ing understanding that would
be new experience for most of them.
Few of these dealers are ever heard of
except in the columns Of the cheap
daubs known as email order publca-
tions," where they haveito compete
with every class of. fraud known TO
civilized man"
1.-THE net result of the gubernatorial
discussion up to date is that the name
Of Hon. Warren Csarst, of Carroll
county, stands out more conspicuously
than ever as the one logical, accept
able, and thoroughly capable candidate
for the place. is the way the Jefl,er-
son Bee sizes UP the situation.
mo man, with Major LaceyS n1gH
regard for Senator Allison will enter
tina race next year" asserts the Ce-
dar Rapids Republican. "And then,
besides, it wouldn't be well to split the
vote in that way" rejoins the Sioux
City Tribune
The Rockwell City Advocate thinks
Someone should call Senator Knox's
attention to the fact that no man
named Philander has ever been elected
president Of the United States"
The Odebolt Record sees mo reason
why, when man is elected to the I'm
tied States senate, he should stay
there for life"
Remarking upon the fact that J. w.
Blythe has been interviewed and quot
ing his prediction that Senator Alli-
son will be his own successor, and the
governors candidacy be ridiculously
swamped before the final conclusion is
reached, the Carroll Herald says "the
interview has not been in vain, for 1t
is no longer necessary to inquire If
the postoffice address Of Mr.. Blythe is
still Burlington, Iowa. Evidently he is
still doing business at the old stand"
