We are now in in our New Honie Why did you move t is the question asked by a number of people wh? seem interested in our welfare.

Every move we have made has been to better ourselves and to tye able to serve our trade in a more satisfactory man ner. The old maxim of three moves being as bad as a failure has no terrors for us, as our new home is by far the largest, tho most convenient and the best arranged place we have ever occupied. We will be glad to have you come tb see us. In fact, it will be considered a favor if you will call and let us show you how we have the Goods arranged. - Remember the place-between Brock Bros. and Wilhites' drug Btore-room formerly occupied by the Means Co.

From, Our Own Correspondent. ' WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 21, 1001. Much has been published of late anent tho policy to be followed by the new President-much tintt does not altogether agree with what is said in private by men familiar with Ina ideas on national nnd international subj cv te. His spontaneous declaration that Pres ident McKinley's policy would be fol lowed and his enrnest request to tho Cabinet to retain their portfolios, ex actly as if they had been selected by him in the ii rat place, are, of course, strong arguments that his administra tion will, in its main points, closely re I semblo that of Mr. McKinley. Put, it is said by his inonda, both of these things wero done under stressof strong feeling that cannot continuo i midi late ly. Mr. Roosevelt is a most earnest man and his line of thought, whatever it may be, always seem to him, fer the i moment, as the only possible ono. His Tseal for it is only equalled by the ex traordinary T igor of action. No doubt, at present, ho is determined to carry out President McKinley's ideas, but as times goes on, the difference of tem perament between tho two men will, it is believed, bring about radical differ ences . ' At leaBt, so say those who know him best. It may be accepted as settled that bo will remain true to reciprocity, though it is improbable that he will bo more successful than McKinley iu briuging this about. In fact, his methods in urging it aro likely to be such as to provoke opposition, thus weakening the faint impulses in the Republican party in favor of tho system. This, it is said, is well for the Democrats, ns every reciprocity treaty; that is rati fied, lessens by so much, tho demand for tariff reform. His attitude towards trusts bp.": not been declared, but judg ing fren the tact that heBcems already to have made an agreement with Senn tpr Hanna for hisBupport, it is improb able that ho will take any radical action to muzzle these. There ia no doubt that he will favor tho expansion of the colonies nnd of tho army and navy, thus adding to tho tnx burdons of tho people. Ho is also at present in favor of the subsidy bill. He did favor nn American canal under American con trol, for ti ti ed ami defended by Aunt can gunB, but it is now claimed that ho hap changed his mind and at pres ent favors a neutral canal, such as was provided for in tho treaty amended by tho lato Senate. This is hardly be lievable, however, as it would infer an utter change in his manner of thought. It is far more probable that he will favor flinging defiance in the face of Great Britain and possibly causing ? war. Mr. Roosevelt, it seems, is a South erner on his mother's . side. That lady was Martha Bullock, daughter of Major James Bullock, of Georgia, and great granddaughter of Archibald Bullock, first Governor of Georgia and member of the Continental Congress. The President has many southern relatives, including several first cousins, who aro citizens cf Georgia and other contigu ous States. Thus, he may be expected ?c iste a very conservative view ol' the negro question and to discounten ance any attempt to rovivo tho Crum packer bill for tho reduction of repre sentation of Southern States that re strict negro sutl'rago by various de vices. However, the difficulty of doing this without similnrly reducing various good Republican States bas practically already-relegated the proposai to tho limbo of discredited bills. Attention is called to tho fact that President Roosevelt, ns Assistant Sec retary of tho Navy, was chiefly in strumental in Recuring tho adoption by Congress of the Navy Personnel bill, tho effect of which hns been i n destroy tho engineer corps of the Navy without putting anything in its place. Accord ing to the terms of this law, all duties, both line and engineer, were to bo in terchangeable; line officers were to be assigned to duties in tho engine room and engineer officers to duties on deck irrespective of tho branch of the sor vi?o to which they had belonged. As a matter of fact, under the administra tion of Rear-Admiral Crowninshield, Chief of tho Bureau of Navagation, engineer officers generally were assign ed to lino duties und no one, either of the line or tho engineers, was assigned to engine duty-unless they had in some way offended Crowninshield. in j which case they wero punished by j being sent tb duty with tho machinery. The result has beeu that warrant machinists have managed the costly engines of our ships; in many cases, with the result of practically ruining them. Last year, bills for repairs were unprecedently large, the usual appro priation therefor Iring exhausted long before the close of the fiscal year. Recently, in response to the protests of Admiral Melville, Chief of Engi neers, A dari ral Crowninshield prom ised to detail two engineer officers, yr ho should alternate with each other below deck, to each warship. This ridicuously inadequate concession is all that he will make. Now the question is what Roosevelt, will do. Ho drew the law, understanding it to mean something far different from what it has w orked out to establish. Will he compel Admiral Crbwninsheild to obey its spirit, or wilt he advocate its repeal; pr,. whaf? Naval officers are walting anxiously to ascertain, and those who j pay for our warships should bo wait- J lng oven more noxiously to learn whether their property is to go on being ruined by the deliberate ref usu! of Admiral CrowninsheUd to obey tho law. Tho accession oC President Roose velt moans the decline of General Cor bin, if reports be true. Corbim it is known, expected to be appointed to command tho army whan General Miles retired, two years hence/thus realising his ambition for the starn of U Lieutenant-General. Ho, however, as is. w??? fcsow?, despises the Ameri can volunteer. It was through his in ti ue nco that Mr. Roosevelt was refused nu ardently desired medal of honor for his services in tho Santiago campaign. It was also he, by tho way, who object ed so strongly to Funston's promotion, claiming that thc latter was merely a good sort of a scout. Now his reward is at hand. President Roosevelt can not well "get even" with him by dis placing him from hit? post In charge of thu Adjutant General's oftico (nor would he desire to do this), but he will certainly promote some one else to General Miles' place when the vacaucy occurs, tho moro HO ns General Corbin won his present placo by political favoritism. . The Assassin On Trial. BUFFALO, Sept. 23.-Leon F. C/.ol gosz was placed on trial to-day for tho murder of President McKinley ou Sept. 0. Tho trial was in tho Supremo Court of Erie County, Judge Truman C. White presiding. The trial began nt 10 o'clock, but long before thnt hour the streets in tho vicinity of the city hall were tho objec tive of many curious persons. They were willing to tnke chances of being admitted to the courtroom, oven though they knew that there w ere but l."?0 seate available. The various enhances to the great building, with'the exception of that on Franklin street, were closed and guard ed. Policemen ?vero everywhere and rigid discipline was tho order of tho day. Squads of blue-coated men wero sta tioned on every landing and in a double linc far outside thu placo of entrance to keep back thu crowds, while in a station not far away reserves woryo ready to reinforce the detail on duty should tho feelings of the peoplo be come aroused to the extent of rioting. Mounted officers paced slowly aronnd every side of tho structure and no ono was pMowed to stand on the sidewalk fora moment, so that at no time was the crowd large. When Czolgosz was arraigned in court today to plead, District Attorney Ponney read the indictmentasd asked: "How do you plead?" Czolgosz an swered that he did not hear, thus utter ing tho first words he has spoken in conrt. Tho district attorney read the indictment again and repeated the question as to tho prisoner's pion. ^'Guilty," replied Czolgosz in a lirm tono. Elaborate precautions were taken to guard the prisoner. He ap peared in court shackled to two guards. Prisoner's plea was not accepted as his counsel had previously entered n ploa of not guilty. Tho assassin took his scat and tho questioning of talesmen were resumed. Tho questions put by Justice Lewis show that the defense will be insanity . Four jurors wero se cured when tho rccefi was taken. After tho recess tho jury wos com pleted and nt 8:43 p. m. the full pnncl^ was sworn in. Czolgocz ah Anarchist. BUFFALO,'N. Y., Sept. 'JO.-Tho Cou rier this morning prints tho following : "What's the use of talking about that? I killed the President. I um an Anarchist and simply did my duty; that's all I'll say." Leon F. Czolgocz, the assassin, of President McKinley, said these words to Frank A. Olozanowski, editor of Bufmloski, a Polish newspaper. Oloz anowski paid his second visit to tho assassin's cell. Ho was seut by tho district attorney in pursuance of vain ei?brts to move the prisoner's stubborn tongue. "Czolgocz talked freely on every sub ject which I suggested, except his crime," said Olozanowski to-night. "His conversation would have been entertaining coining from a man other than thc President's assassin. Ho talked on tho Polish alliance and a ! variety of other subjects, but v hen I ?poke of his crime he merely said: 'What's tho lise of talking about that? I killed tho President, I am an Anar chist. I simply did my duty; that's all I'll say.' "Czolgocz spol;e earnestly and de terminedly. I tried him several ways, but he would not add a word to his declaration. I don't believe anyone has any more from him about tho crime. Czolgocz is intelligent and I don't believe he will tell more." The closest watch is'being kept on Czolgocz, and tho sheriff's officers also seem bent on aiding the prosecution by getting admissions from the prisoner, but so far they have been unsuccess ful. The prisoner talks on ordinary subjects occasionally, but will not talk on subjects leading up to th? assassi nation of the President. Whoo ques tioned in that relation Czolgocz resumes his stubborn silence. Pot rianta and Cut Flowers for sale. Largo and o mall Palms a specialty. Mrs. J. P. Otlokeoalea, 242 North Main St. Portman Letter. Now when the name of our bolcfved I'resident, deceased, seems to cast a halo of aanctlty over the land, and there is none so prx>r aa not to do him reverence, and none so malignant aa not to do him reapeot, lt ia auperilnoua to utter further ocho upon the aentiinont of bis life. There !s, however, reflection in thia fact that the reverberation of a great gun will roll through the valleys and echo from tho mountains lons after the resonant ?uucuaaion has ahooked the air and dla turbed the shadows in the forest*. The name of our President ia not yet - Idead, neither doea it sleep, and long will i, tho time be before the shock in many hearts is milled. "Ile was a good man!" ia what shall be . said of him instead of the eulogy: "Ile I was a great President!" As a President he pleased none entirely and dissatisfied many in part. As a President he dis tinguished his position by individuality. Ile raised manhood above the office of . the nation's chief ruler, and the maas of the world's population can better bear with a bad executive than with a good man. Therefore, the good such a Presi dent does ls oiten accounted to him for evil. Be did many things that pleased not his bestfriends and many that pleased his enemies; between both they rever ently lift the pall that covers his dead body and weep over the wound the aa saasln'a bullet went through. "But he waa ambitious!" Bay the assassins-the anarchistic' body of the world's insane Brutus. "Not," said the arch friend, "that I love a natlon'a President less but annihilation more!" Andover the anni hilation, over tho bullet, enemies and friends gather and say, "be was a geed man!" *> Goodness ia of no color or creed, and while reflecting thus we wonder what denomination the President's goodness? His goodness waa not confined within tho scarlot curtains of an ecclesiastical profession. Ile worshipped in a cathe dra], but lb was not the gold and purple inscriptions of a Venetian window upon bia brow that, designated tbe royalty of his goodnoas. Tho American people dis like gold and purple inscriptions. ?They are Democratic, though many of them may be of Republican principle. They like tbe goodness that is flechad ou lia forehead by the yellow light through the ooltage window by the bright blaze of the hearthstone fire. President McKinley's goodness began when the cottage was his ambition and the fireside his joy. This goodness ran through the warp and woof ol' his life, through the greenswardjof SUC CORS and the thorny paths of dissensions through the troublons lourney from; tho plain old rocker In the cottage to the diva? in the luxurious ohambera of the executive manalon of the United'States. The denomination of the President's goodness waa dcme?Ucity - tbs love of home and of home's inhabitants. When a man's love oeasea to be hum ble enough to find joy in bia own [home he >U1 never be great enough at death to merita natlon'a mourning. Thia man, tho head of neventy-eix mlliiono of en lightened people, before whose nod or dissent a groat, nation, aud| rival nations beyond the waters, brooded seriously this man waa the least lu a household of two, he was willingly absorbed in tlir digoity of a little sick woman. That domestic love of many sick years will idealize tba man when the faults of the President are folded away in peace and bia victories cease to be Idolized. We have little to say more about the great man, greater in peace than in war; great though he waa as President, still ' greater as man; and the wife-the silver bowl still remaining wherein sparkled tho nectar of bis life, what her part flo. this revered disi.iootion.or her husband's career? Well might the dove of pure felic ity descend and prophesy upon her youth in its baptism into his life. "She will do him good and not evil all the daya of bc r life." And the companion of such a wife, what saith the Scriptures ot him? "The heart of ber husband dotb|safely trust in her." And as a still further consequence of thia fidelity: "Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land." The secret of every man's greatnesa ls his wife or his mother. Thero is a lesson throughout the land in this useful life departed; not in the ambition for greatness, because greatness may lead unto deatb,^but ia the ambi tion for gooduess because goodness may lead nut" greatneas. A man whose name ia upon his church's register and whose love and respect is in the heart of his wife, cannot bo a small or mean man, and though in the turbulence of a princi ple or sentiment "the'block may soak his gore," yet "he never dies who dies in a great caunn." Our Prosidont has len. iho young men of our nation a greate. example than that of Napoleon or Alexander. He has dem onstrated io the life of the keenest wit ness of a man's conduct-his wife-that a man can be great and be good,'that he can be rich and be faithful, that he can be worldly employed and be a Christian. In a decade when lt ls said men wor ship mammon it may also be said that a man could be President, of the United States and worship Oed. Also that the straggle for wealth, position and power may not be nnholy because a martyred President; BA engaged, called upon th? name of the Lord at the latt hour saying : "His will bs donor mounting into the skies with bia laat breath singing: "Nearer my God to Tb ?e. Nearer to Thee!" " 1 m' _1^ R. L. - E. B.
