THURSDAY, SEPT. 26, 1901.

No poison was found on the bullet
or the revolver with which the anai
chist assassinated President McKin
ley. Chemical and lacteriological
examinations were made and both re
vealed the fact that no poison was
used by the murderer.
There were only 2,(572 deaths re
turned to the secretary of state for
the month of August, corresponding1
to a death rate of 13.1 per 1000 popu
lation. This is an unusally low mor
tality for August, .being nearly .'UK)
less than for the same month last year
Number for Ionia county .10, Belding
city I, Otisco 1, Orleans 2.
The business man who advertise
ment seldom, if ever, appears in the
local newspaper is the one who whines
the most alout people sending away to
mail-order houses for goods. He can't
appreciate the fact that it is the ad
vertising that diverts trade to the
city store and the neglect of advertis
ing that causes the country merchant
to lose touch with the people.
It is particularly fortunate for the
country and the world that the Bar
Association of Buffalo, immediately
following the death of the president,
requested the court to select as the
attorneys of Czolgosz two such honor
able lawyers as Judge Lewis and
Judge Titus. The country has thus
been spared another such exhibition
as that which was given at the trial
of Cuiteau. While Czolgosz is receiv
ing every protection that is guaran
t teed him by the constitution and by
the laws of the state of New York,
his attorneys rightly decline to des
cend to quibbling and hair-splitting
for the purpose of trying to increase
their reputations by offering a show
of resistance.
Though there is a surplus of women
in New York and other eastern states
there are a million more men than
women in the country, and in the
world at large there is an excess of
over fifteen million men. In view of
the great numbers of men who have
been killed in battle and who have
died of unrequited love, it. seems
strange that the world should still
contain a surplus of representatives
of the male sex. Of course, the more
numerous the men become in propor
tion to the women the more previous
the latter will be. If there is any
thing that pleases the women it is to
have things so arranged that they
need not be wall-Mowers except from
choice. This is a lovely world when
you come to understand the arrange
ments in it.
Anarchists cannot lxi summarily
killed neither can they be imprisoned
unless convicted of a crime. They
can however, be watched more care
fully. Their meetings can be attend
ed by olliccrs of the law instructed to
arret any person making incendiary
talk, In fact, they can be prohibited
from holding secret meetings at all.
It is an easy matter for sullicient offi
cers to be detailed to watch and ap
prehend these people. Make it so
warm and uncomfortable that they
will want to leave the country. Con
gress can pass stringent laws cover
ing these matters without infringing
upon legitimate freedom and right of
free speech. Make the laws strin
gent; then enforce them vigorously;
and if the anarchists don't like it,
then the' can and will leave. Anar
chism and anarchists can Ik.: reached
only through law and legal agencies.
To do anything else would le putting
a club into the hands of anarchists
themselves whose belief is "no law.'
The calm conservative judgment of
the country will lind some way of re
moving or at least checking this can
cer of the body politic.
I.itt-k ol 'reparation.
It is said that the steel strike caus
ed a loss of $10,000,000 in wages and
irj,ooo,(X)0 to the trust. There is no
compensation in sight for one, the
wage earners. The loss of the trust
may lc treated lightly because it is
delayed protit rather than actual loss.
The trust still has its mills, its coal,
and ore piles, and its trade. If it is
behind in its'orderp, it can rush work
and soon catchup. If it needs other
compensation for the interference
with its business, it can raise the price
of its product and take it out of the
consumer.
How and when will the men who
have borne the burden of the ill-timed
and ill-advised strike make any re
covery? They have not only lost
heavily in money, which they could
ill afford to lose, but they have lost
considerable of the prestige of their
association All this may be charged
up to the bad judgment and bad gen
eralship of their leader, who no doubt
.acted according to his best judgment
when he led his followers to disaster.
It is doubtful if any one man in the
association possessed the ability to
lead a successful strike under the cir
cumstances. Men of such talents are
usually to be found in the ranks of the
.capitalists, lor capital nnus uieir scr

The lessons taught by the life and
career of William McKinley are, pa
tience, forbearance, perseverance and
patriotism. He climed the ladder of
fame slowly but surely. Hlessed with
good health and more than- average
intellect, he waited patiently for the
hour of his triumph. Buffeted by po
litical storms, and cast upon the rocks
of opposition and slander, he emerged
from every conflict stronger .than be
fore, lie was kind and generous to
others, true to his friends and loyal
to them to the last. He was never
revengful nor quarrelsome. His great
heart was full of the milk of human
kindness; and no matter how much he
was maligned and abused, he never
replied or "talked back." A great
mind cannot alTord to notice slander.
He was lilled with a spirit of patriot
ism that manifested Itself whenever
he acted. Jle was truly American,
possessln the spirit of an American.
He loved his country he loved the flag.
The rising generation can prolit
ably study his life. It can draw from
it much that is lofty and inspiring.
The world is better because William
McKinley lived in it.
