has taken the oath ail the kinds of

THE JOURNEY HOME
The long sad voyage home to his
eternal resting place has brough
tears to millions. President McKin
ley won to him all hearts by a per
sonality that has been rarely pea
sessed by any one man. It would
seem every citizen feels the loss of
a personal friend now that he ha-
fallen, and eyery difference of opin
ion is sunk in a universal lament, It
is wonderful to think how unified
the teeming millions of our vast
country are In their love for their
president. It cannot ha for the head
of the nation that it goes out. I
fact it can only be the uniting of th.
great place with (he simplicity of
his citizenship and the individuality
of his kindbeartedness. His impres
sive personality captivated the
South, which no other man living
could so far have accomplished un
der the trying circumstances sur
rounding us politically in this sec
tion, We are to wait calmly and
learn if his policy of uniting the
sections and making the people ho-
mogenious can ba carried out by
another.
