ALL CANTON TORNS OUTIN HIS HONOR Major McKinley Addresses His Fel= low Townsmen. DEPARTS FOR WASHINGTON All Canton turned ‘out to bid farewell to President-elect and Mrs. McKinley as they entered the special train which left with them for Washingion.at 7 o'clock last even- ing. Promptly at 6 p.m. bands and military clubs began to organize in the city hall square. Captain Harry Frease, who com- manded the Canton Troop during the re- cent campaign, was the chief marshal. Following the troop in the parade came the Grand Army Band. This in turn was follawed by the 3d Battalion, Sth Regi- ment, Ohio National:Guard. The 8th Regi- ment was to have een an honorary es- cort to the Presidemt-elect on the trip to the Ebbitt House, ‘but failure to secure satisfactory railroad arrangements pre- vented this and other Ohio military or- ganizations from joining in the inaugural demonstration.“ Three companies, ‘a signal corps and a hospital corps constitute the battalion, The column marched through the Dub- lic square and up Market street hill, pass- ing the McKinley home and then counter- marching cn Market street. When the Business Men's Association was opposite the McKinley gate the column halted and waited for Major and Mrs. McKinley and their party to enter the carriage in wait- ing. After the party had entered mounted aids rode abreast of the horses, and the business men completed the hollow square in which the carriage moved. The McKinley arch, just at the foot of Market street hill, was !llummated as dark- ness fell over tha city and shone resplend- ent when the column marched under it. Hundreds of tri-colored ‘incandescent lights sent their rays from the arch far along the street on each side and made bright the decorations. The marchers as they passed looked backwarl for a last glimpse of what is now the most conspicu- ous reminder of the exciting campaign in Canton last fall. All along the line the carriage contain- ing the President-elect and his wife was kept in a halo of brilliant light from flam- beaux. Colored fires were burned and sky- rockets and Roman candles whizzed throygh the air. - As the head of the column reached the train and halted the rear pushed forward and the crowds from the sidewalks mi!n- gled with the marchers until the platform and surrounding streets were filled with a surging mass of numunity striving to get nearest the place where the President-elect would be last seen. Farewell Address. In response to repeated calls, Major Mc- Kinley made a speech from the rear plat- form of the train. He said: “My Neighbors and Friends and Fellow- Citizens—On the eve of departure to the seat of government, soon to assume the duties of an arduous responsibility as great as can devolve upun any man, nothing could give me greater pleasure than this farewell greeting—this evidence of your friendship and sympaihy, your good will, and, I am sure, the prayers of all the peo- ple with whom I have lived so long, and whose confidence and esteem are dearer to me than any other earchly honors. “To all of us the future is a sealed bock, but, if I can, by official act or administra- tion, or utterance, in any degree add to the prosperity of our beloved country and the comfort and well-being of our splendid citizenship, I will devote the best and most unselfish efforts of my life. ‘he as- sumption of the chief magistracy 1s of such grave importance taat partisanship cannot blind the judgment or accept any other considerations but the public gocd of all to every part and every section. “With this thought uppermost in my mind, I reluctantly take leave of my friends and my nelgabors, cherishing in my heart the sweetest memories and the tenderest thoughts of my old home—my home now, and, I trust, my home here- after, so long as I live.

He bow:d his acknowledgments. ‘Those: about ‘him saw that he was visibly’affected, and, as he came from the train platform to greet his wife after the Canton farewell, his eyes were moist and his voice tremulous with emotion. a The first station, Louisville,was seven miles away, and the major stepped out into the dark on the platform after don- ning a mackintosh.

At 10 o'clock Mr. McKinley said to the Associated Press reporter: “I am fecling in splendid health tonight,” and his appear- ance indicated it in every way. The dining car of the presidential train was beautifully decorated with flowers. The President-elect thanked General Man- ager Loree for the attention paid to his friends.

SONS OF MARYLAND Portraits of Distinguished Men Presented to a Olub. Mr. Gibson Refers in Patriotic Terms to the Outrages in Caba— The Speakers. Handsomely framed photographs of Pres- ident-elect McKinley, Vice President-elect Hobart, Senator-elect Wellington, Mr. Jas. A. Gary, who, it is generally believed, will be Postmaster General in President Mc- Kinley’s cabinet, and Governor Lloyd Lowndes of Maryland were presented to the Maryland Republican Club at its regu- lar monthly meeting last evening, at its headquarters, No. 923 F street northwest. Preliminary to the ceremonies of presen- tation a business meeting was held. Presi- dent Arthur Stabler presided, and Mr. Chas. H. Krener was secretary. The following resolution was offered by Mr. Sheckells and laid over until the next monthly meeting of the club: “Resolved, That three delegates be elect- ed by this club to constitute, with a lke number from each of the other republican state clubs of the District of Columbia, a League of Republican State Clubs, to unite and represent the principles and interests of the state clubs before the departments of the government, and within the several states, and in every way promote and ad- vance the purposes for which the several state republican clubs were organized.” At the close of the business meeting Pres- ident Stabler presented the club with a gavel made of hickory and locust, grown on his farm in Maryland, which, he said, had never been owned by a person belong- ing to other than the whig or republican party, and on which a slave had never labored. The portrait of Mr. Wellington was pre- sented by ex-Lieutenant Governor A. W. Hart, formerly of Ohio, now a resident of Montgomery county, Md. After a pleasant reference to his feelings as ap adopted son of Maryland, he paid a glowing tribute to the American republic, whose government was, he said, the best on earth. Here, as nowhere else in the world, he said, are op- portunities offered for the development of the human race. Of this Mr. Wellington was a shining example. Mr. Hart next referred Wellington’s humble start in life and his progress, dwelling particularly upon the fact that when but forty years of age he was selected by President Harrison as as- sistant treasurer of the United States at Baltimore. He also referred to the events which brought out Mr. Wellington as a leader of the republican party in Maryland, and eventuated in the election of Lloyd Lowndes as governor of Maryland, Mr. Wellington as senator of the United States, and the carrying of the state in 1897 by the republicans for William McKinley by a majority of 32,000 votes. In concluding, Mr. Hart said the repub- licans of Maryland might well be proud of such a leader as is George L. Wellington. In accepting the picture of Mr. Welling- ton President Stabler spoke of the various prophecies made by the senator-elect dur- ing the past few years in reference to the success of the republican party, and said that every one has so far been fulfilled, and that his prediction is that a republican legtsiature will be chosen next fall and a republican successor to Senator Gorman elected. He urged the members to do all in the power of each to keep his party in control, especially as to having his name registered annually, and to deposit his bal- lot on the day of election. Mr. Stabler also referred to the successful efforts made by Mr. Wellington to get Mr. Gary appointed as a member of President McKinley's cab- inet, and sald his motto in the future would be “Put none but republicans on guard.” Mr. Gary’s Picture. ‘The portrait of Mr. Gary was presented in an appropriate address by Mr. Tom C. Noyes, who paid an eloquent tribute to the worth and ability of Mr. Gary, and sald further that the nation as well as Maryland ha? been greatly honored by President Mc- Kinley in selecting such a distinguished citizen of Maryland as is Mr. Gary to be 2 member of his cabinet. Mr. Noyes referred to the advantages of organization and said that it was this that helped Maryland and Kentucky to breek the solid south. He said Mr. Gary had been the Moses of the republican party in Maryland and for thirty years had stood by the party, even in its darkest hours, and he urged that, as he would be a resident of Washington, that all the members of the club would tally around him and support him. Mr. Joseph Trainor replied to Mr. Noyes and accepted the portrait of Mr. Gary. He said that for the past thirty-three years Mr. Gary’s name nad been almost as fa- miliar to him as his own, but that he had never seen elther Mr. Gary or, until the esent occasion, his picture. Mr. Gary, he said, has never faltered in his zeal for the republican party in Maryland. It has been a little more difficult in the past, he said, to be a republican in Maryland than it was in some of the other states, for to cast a republican vote in Maryland during many years was to incur contumely and reproacly, Mr. Trainor in a thrilling manner re- ferred to the trials of republicans who de- sired to vote in Maryland during the war and for several years following, stating that those who voted that ticket took their lives in their hands when they went to the polls, and traced the increase in the republican vote from 1864 to 1896, and declared that he believed that Maryland would hereafter be forever a republican state, -as there was, he believed, a clear republican majority of 10,000 votes. ‘The appoit:tment of Mr. Gary as a mem- ber of President McKinley's cabinet was, he sald, a recognition of the work done by Maryland republicans. McKinley and Hobart. The portraits of Messrs. McKinley and Hobart, it was announced by President Stabler, were dorated by a substantial bus- iness man of Washington, who was too modest to allow his name to become known. The pfesentation address was made by Mr. William A. Meloy of Prince George’s coun- ty, Md. There was a time, said he, when the republicans of Maryland were known as black republicans. He had, he said, voted the republican ticket during the past thir- ty-seven years—not very often, but as often as he had a chance. Mr. Meloy then re- ferred tg the birth of the now President- elect, and said there was no limit to the op- portunities afforded to the American youth, provided he would fit himself as William McKinley had done. McKinley has, said he, never failed in his duty, nor the full measure of all that he was called upon to perform. In ‘concluding, Mr. Meloy spoke of Mr. McKinley's course In Congress, arid said he had no doubt that it was owing to the fact that Thomas BR. Reed defeated McKin- ley for the speakership of the House of Representatives that William McKinley became chairman of the ways and means committee of the House and President of the United States. About Cuba. Representative Gibson of Tennessee re- plied to Mr. Meloy. After referring to the victory won by the republicans of his dis- trict during the last campaign, he said that while he had hoped that a citizen of Tennessee would have been selected as a tember of the cabinet, he was, as this could not be brought about, glad the choice had fallen upon a Marylander. Continuing, he seid he the new administration “had pitenoed to briefly to Mr. days without water cr light, or the visit of a human being, and declared that had it Cieveland ordered the which wes performing “monkeyshines” at Charleston to Havana, as requested by Lee, he would have gone out of office in a blaze of glory, and asserted that after McKinley and Hobart enter upon the duties of their Offices every American would feel prouder because he is an American.

After tendering a vote of thanks to the donors of the gavcl, the portraits and some newspaper files, respectively, and to the speakers for their addresses of the even- ing, the club adjourned to mee? on the first Monday evening in April. —— THE OLEOMARGARINE CASES.
