Murat Halstead's Letter.
Chicago, Sept. 21, 1901
To The Public :—
I am writing "The Illustrious Life
of William McKinley," which is being
published by the World Publishing
Co., of Buffalo, ~8. Y., and hope to
make it worthy. There^adverlised
another "Life of McKinley'*" entitled
"Life and Distinguisbe4r-$ervfces"M
William McKinley" alleged to be by
me, I prepared a Campaign Publication six years ago regarding the Republican candidates then for President and Vice President. I understand it is undergoing further change
and purported to be my "Life of McKinley." lhave had nothing to do
with it since 1896 and want this clearly understood. It is a back number,
and I trust will be looked upon as
such.

Gentlemen:—Your portrait of the
late President McKinley, 16x20 inches
in size, on cardboard, in photographic
tints, is a beautiful picture, suitable
for framing, and one of the best portraits of President McKinley I have
yet seen and is in verr great contrast
with the cheap prints and cheap
pictures sold on the streets. Every
family should have a copy of this
portrait.

Ralley Day Echoes.
At least 1,000 people attended the
rally of Clare Co. Sunday schools, held
at Harrison September 26th, 1901, of
whom 600 participated in the parade.
A quarter of a mile of finely decorated loads and other rigs marched at
10:30 a. m. after which the parade
formed on foot, and marched with
waving flags and banners two abreast
with the Harrison band through the
streets to the fair grounds in a line
which extended half a mile in single
flle.
After the basket picnic dinner,
exercises were opened with a band
concert at the grand stand, and an
attentive audience was soon absorbed
in the masterly eloquence of Hubbard
of Lansing, aud Day of Detroit all
save a handful of disorderly persons
who threateningly besieged the speaker's wagon, and after an hour and a
quarter and in the face of a thousand
indignant spectators broke in upon
speakers Day's address and declared
the "races on." These were not the
race 'managers. This unwarrented
and disorderly act has received popular denounciabion by intelligent and
law abiding citizen throughout the
county, and deseryes further censure
in view of the facts that,
(a) The mapagemnt of the rally had
engaged the grand stand three weeks
before the races were billed for exercises.
(b) But one hour and fifteen minutes
of the hour and forty-five minutes
granted had been used, and the rally
was, as the time-keeper will affirm,
running on its own time when it was
disturbed.
At the special request of speaker
Day who bad attended the ralley at a
great sacrifice, no arrests were made
although many favored using the law,
This may yet be done.
After this episode plans were perfected for the organization of & county
Anti-Saloon league) which act "met
with wide support in the evening
when a large audience of temperance
people listened to the. sound logic of
W. G. Hubbard at Wilson's opera
house.
The following county officers were
elected for the Clare Co, S. S. association.

Football.
The second high school football
team of Mt. Pleasant met a simiW
team here last Saturday. The teams
were well matched as to weight, the
Mt. Pleasant boys being more elongated but less stocky than the Clare
boys. The game was cleanly played.
Mussell and C. Jackson did briliant
work carrying the ball, making many
long. runs. Tatman was much, ln
evidence carrying Jacksob several
yards for a touch down. The rest of
the team were playing their first game
and as the score shows all did well.
The score stood, Mt. Pleasant, 0;
Clare 17. Following is the lineup: full
back, Earl Dwyer; lert half, Charley
Jackson; right half, Arthur Mufesell;
quarter back, James Mason; left- end,
John Jackson} right end, Leo Kelley;
left tackle, James Tatjaan; right
tackel, Say Fallt; left guard, Harry-
Pierce; right guard, Roy McKinnonj
center, Ed Pettit.
