"assassination of Pres. William McKinley in 1901?"

He,McKinley, should have got Dolly to protect him from Czolgosz and that really great one, who loaded up his terrist first load on the old mule (the say it was an old horse) with anarchistic dynamite.



Anyway, ever since that, USA, and some hundreds year before that, same USA, has had many things really mixed up and it is not all the fault of Dolly Parton (she was and is just smart)

Blessem, McKinley..

I think, hope, it is only some few years, decades into the future when Dolly will be finally be elected the next silly two-party president of USA.

She is, still, the only one, major domestic major two-party force and forcefully forced power, who really understands the political double-silly system of USA.

She has really become the true truthfully of the Magic of the Pursuite of Happiness and the two big Possessions.
(George- and James-town, they used to literally eat themselves and their best neighbors, in the pursuit of that happiness??)

Murdering McKinley: The Making of Theodore Roosevelt’s America

BRIAN LAMB, HOST: Eric Rauchway, author of "Murdering McKinley," up top, I`d like to have do three things, explain three different attempted assassinations. The first one is Charles Guiteau, in 1881. What -- what -- does that have any connection with the McKinley assassination?

ERIC RAUCHWAY, AUTHOR, "MURDERING MCKINLEY: THE MAKING OF THEODORE ROOSEVELT`S AMERICA": Well, Guiteau shot Garfield on a train platform in 1881, with the idea that he was going to benefit the conservative wing of the Republican Party. Guiteau was, in all probability, a little bit unhinged, and had a bit of a circus of a trial, based on determining his responsibility for the crime, in which he represented himself, and then he was eventually hanged. And that influenced the McKinley assassination, inasmuch as it scared the dickens out of the prosecutors. They didn`t want to repeat that kind of circus and that problem again. And so they were determined to prosecute the assassin and do away with him fairly quickly, learning the lessons of the Guiteau case.

(it is always an always true US true constitutional pain when the guest is kind of really more stupid than the host, but it always happens, all the time at C-SPAN)

LAMB: Do you happen to remember how old Guiteau was?

RAUCHWAY: I don`t, off the top of my head, no.

LAMB: Then the second assassination attempt was in 1892...

RAUCHWAY: Yes.

LAMB: ... which you write about in your book. Now, see, we had the first one in 1881...

OTHER TITLES
Electrocution of Czolgosz

CREATED/PUBLISHED
United States : Thomas A. Edison, Inc., 1901.

SUMMARY
The film begins by showing railroad cars in the foreground with the overshadowing walls of a state prison in the background. The second camera position, from a higher elevation, pans slowly showing the yard interior of the prison and some of the large buildings. There is a dissolve from the exterior to the interior, a set of a stone wall with an iron barred door. Uniformed men are visible; they open the door and remove a man in civilian clothes. The camera then dissolves to another set in which there is a chair with wires attached. The man in civilian clothes is brought in and strapped to the chair. At the end of the film, two of the six witnesses examine him with stethoscopes.

From a contemporary Edison film company catalog: ELECTROCUTION OF CZOLGOSZ. Unhonored. [code for telegraphic orders]. A detailed reproduction of the execution of the assassin of President McKinley faithfully carried out from the description of an eye witness. The picture is in three scenes. First: Panoramic view of Auburn Prison taken the morning of the electrocution. The picture then dissolves into the corridor of murderer's row. The keepers are seen taking Czolgosz from his cell to the death chamber, and shows State Electrician, Wardens and Doctors making final test of the chair. Czolgosz is then brought in by the guard and is quickly strapped into the chair. The current is turned on at a signal from the Warden, and the assassin heaves heavily as though the straps would break. He drops prone after the current is turned off. The doctors examine the body and report to the Warden that he is dead, and he in turn officially announces the death to the witness. Class B 200 ft. $24.00

NOTES
Copyright: Thomas A. Edison; 9Nov1901; H10605.

Greater stuff available using the AC current by westinghouse, but DC Edison did his best, and lost it all.
Thus, ABC, CNBC, CBS, CNN and all those silly General Electric ones.
