Cannon boomed and bands played “Dixie” as President McKinley alight ed from the Campania, his private car, at the grounds of the Illinois Soldiers’ home at Quincy Friday morning. The sun shone brightly, making almost a perfect day. Fifteen hundred old vet erans, inmates of the home, cheered enthusiastically as the president and the members of the cabinet took car riages to be driven between long platoons of soldiers around the beau tiful grounds of the home. The president was first escorted to an improvised platform, from which he bowed and smiled in acknowledg ment of the veterans’ greeting, shak ing hands with as mftpy as possible. Then, in company with members of the local committee,' the president made a short .visit to the Soldiers’ hospital. The presidential party was next driven from the Soldiers’ home to the city proper, a distance of two miles. Company F, Fifth infantry, the naval reserves and Company F, Eighth Illinois infantry, escorted the party through the business district. The sailors were supplied with Hotchkiss guns, and as soon as the president arrived in sight of the pub lic square a president’s salute of twen ty-one guns was fired.

McKinley’*) Ad<lre.ii. The president and several members of the cabinet delivered brief addresses from the reviewing stand. The presi dent said: “I thank yon one and all for this patriotic welcome. It has given me uncommon pleasure to meet this morn ing at the Soldiers’ Home, the men of 1801, the veterans who stood in the trenches and behind the guns in that year of great emergency when the life of the nation hung in the balance. It has given me like pleasure also to meet with the ex-soldiers of the Span ish war from the city of Quincy and the naval malitia representin the pa triotism of 1833. And it is gratifying to me to learn that you sent from this city one of the gallant young officers who fought with Dewey in Manila bay. This is an era of patriotism, my countrymen. “The United States has never -been lacking in gratitude to its soldiers and its sailors who have fought in its cause, and the cause of the United States has never lacked defenders in every crisis of its history. From the revolutionary days to the present, the citizens Of the United States have been ever ready to uphold at any cost the flag and the honor of the nation and to take all the responsibility which comes from a righteous cause. There are responsibilities born to duty, that can never be repudiated. Duty unperformed is dishonor and dishonor brings shame which is heavi er to carry than any burden which honor can impose. - “My fellow citizens, I thank you for this more than gracious welcome and bid you all good morning.” Secretary Root. Speaks. Secretary Hoot spoke as follows: “Fellow Citizens of Illinois: My humble duty during the last two months is to do what you are doing here today by the encouragement and inspiration of your presence, holding up the hands, strengthening the soul, and cheering the courage of the presi dent, the chief magistrate of your be loved country, in maintaining its honor and doing its full duty before God and man on tho great stage of the world. It is fitting here, almost at the very spot where the two ex tremes of population, coming, the one from Massachusetts and Connecticut and the other coming from Virgin^ CARGO OF MULES LOST.

There is no p Bisan ship, no factionalism, in the bipiness in which we are engaged in, Helping President McKinley. t “No man can slielte. himself under the flag of party or justify himself by any declaration of principle in failing to stand behind the men of all parties and all creeds who lie today in the trenches in Luzon. “No man who knows his duty and is a true American will fail to do it. I hqve no fear, no question whatever,, that in the days and nights that the secretary of war is giving to seeing that the army of the United States is the best fed, best equipped and best armed army the world has ever seen, the sympathy and the support of tho people of Quincy, of Illinois, of the country, will be behind him and be hind the president. “The cause in which your soldiers are fighting and in which yon, Demo crats and Republicans alike, stand be hind them, is the cause of civilization and of peace. The men behind the guns in Manila today are in front of the sehoolhouse, of law and order and will be followed by the men with their text book and Bible, bringing the arts of civilization, respect for law and order, and the welfare of country. No government can live for self alone, nor grow to full stature by the exercise of selfishness. No men and no party of men can be bound to the performance of a mission qE the great republic for the regeneration and elevation of man kind. It is IMlowing today ns it has followed in the past, the lines marked out by a Providence supericr to the wisdom of presidents and of legisla tures, way of the great march of civilization. “My friends of the city of Quincy and of the state of Illinois, the presi dent of the United States will be faith ful to the soldier who represents it. His cabinet will be faithful to him and I know that yon, one and all, will stand with us in sustaining and help ing him the great work which you have laid upon him.” The streets of Quincy were literally packed with people. A street fair is in projection, and all along the line of march b#iths and arches had been erected, moA of which flaunted the stars and stripes and im mense pictures of McKinley and Dewey.

Decorations stretched from all the buildings in the business center of tho city. Incoming trains brought 1,000 veteraus and visitors, who thronged the streets. About 600 tents were raised in the Tri-State fair grounds for the accommodation of the vet erans. It was not until late in the afternoon that the reunion was really begun. Mayor William M. Aiken, Jr., wel comed tlie blue and gray veterans, and Captain J. H. Harris, of Nashville, Tonn., responded. The principal address of the dny was delivered by Colonel Pollard B. Hill, of Macon, Ga. He said in part: “The majority of my comrades, while rich in lagacies of valor, are poor in this world’s goods. Though poor we be, yet if there be any within the sound of my voice who tremble at the old rebel yell, though given in honor of a uatioual event, and whose slumbers are disturbed by visions of hungry confederates feeding from the public crib, rest in peace. That can never be. We want no pensions from the United States government and are not entitled to them. No man can re tain his self-respeet and accept that not his due. Comrades in blue, we want only your friendship and moral support. “At this moment there is hanging over my beloved southland a pall as black as night. The racial problem confronting us calls for wise and able statesmanship to solve. Many of our people live in hourly dread of the stealthy approach of the despoiling fiend. You once gave us a heroic dose, and it cured the patient. We feel now that we shall not call in vain for your aid. ” After the speeches a dress parade of the military organizations was held. The evening was devoted to general campfires of tho veterand at Camp Farragut. EDITORS IN COLLISION.

GOES BEFORE THE NEXT LEGISLATURE President Tliomafi Says Hoads Are Not Only Willing, But Anxious to Do SometWiiK. The Georgia state railroad commis sion and tho railroads held a confer ence in executive session Monday at the capitol. The plan now proposed is for the stnte of Georgia to build a union pas senger station for Atlanta. After figuring on it for a year, the railroads have thrown up the job. They say they cannot agree on a plan, and they are willing for the state to try. It is certain that some legislation will be undertaken looking to that end. An effort will bo made to get n bill through the legislature creating a commission and appropriating money to pay for the work. Governor Caudlor is expected to recommend something of the kind. The state railroad commission will recommend it in its annuni report, and tho Western and Atlantic’s special at torney, Colonel Brown will urge it iu his report. The state is iu a position to build a new station and make money by the operation, if the roads will agree to use it for thirty years. The roads may hesitate on that point. It is not a sure thing that the legisla ture will consider it advisable to build, but the proposition will be strongly backed. President Thomas favors this plan. In his written statement presented at Monday’s conference, President Thomas said that the railroad man agers are “not only willing, but anxi ous to build a commodious station, provided the complications surround ing the prest nt location can be satis factorily adjusted.” SOUTHERN PROGRESS.
