WHY NOT LINCoLNe

It's Q noteworthy fact that the Demo-
cratic missionaries from the East, while
claiming for their party direct descent
from Jefferson and as instinct with "Jef-
fersonian principles" are not yet impu-
dent enough to pretend that the Demo-
cratic party Of today Is in line with spir-
1t or principles of Abraham Lincoln. Why
not7 The Democracy are cheeky"
enough TO always celebrate the birthday
of Washington, and describe him at their
annual banquets as "the foremost expo
nent in his time of good sound
Democratic doctrines" in spite of the fact
that so far as the Democratic party today
by its record stands for any distinctive
political doctrines that separate it from
the Republican theory and practice under
the constitution. Washington, who loved
and trusted Hamilton. while he dreaded
and denounced Jefferson, was always its
foe. 1t will not be denied that Lin
coin was q patriot Of the same
exceptional stature as Washington;
ne il q vast patriotic figure that
belongs TO time and eternity, like
Washington, and yet the Democracy
don't celebrate his birthday and do him
honor IS they do Washington, who GER
tainly was not Jeffersonian any more
than Lincoln was 3 Democrat. The
Democracy honor the memory OF Jeffer-
son, Jackson and Tilden as patriots and
heroes; why not Lincoln, Il they really
feel that Lincoln was vast national
figure, not peculiarly a Republican, but
chiefly and absolutely g great patrio,
of the stature and proportions of
Washington The real reason WHY
the Democracy do not honor the men,
DRY of Lincoln Is because they feel
that Lincoln was Republican and know
that he carried the baitle-dag of the party
when it sent the Bourbon Democracy
bowling in defeat back TO the trenches.
and that it was Lincoln who stabbed the
pro-slavery party to desth. Hence, while
they treat Lincoln and Grant with nominal
respect-since they are dead and no longer
dangerous-they really hate both these
great men as cordially as jefferson and
Aaron Burr hated George Washington and
Hamilton, because they know and feel that
Lincoln's logic, enforced By Grants sword.
dispersed the Bourbon Democracy and
RENTED them for twenty-five years 10 the
condition Of hungry political outlaws and
suilen exiles from the pale of American
patriotism.
Lincoln is or Is not the great distinctive
figure on the Republican pantheon. If he
is not why don't the Democracy canonize
him and celebrate his birthday as hilari-
ously as they do that of Jefferson and
even Washington Jefferson and Tilden
are legitimate Democratic saints, because
both believed in state supremacy. and
there Is no danger at this early date of
even Bourbon Democrat being 50 stupid
as to wish TO celebrate the birthday of
either Lincoln or Grant as great national
figures like Washington, who do not
fairly belong to the Republican party and
do not stand for its principles or its policy
today" which is the most recent oena.

SEATTLE. WEDNESDAY. oOr. ?.
The Mormons are now in council at Salt
Lake City. The New York World says:

The Mormons are now IN council at Salt
Lake City. The New York World says:
wyoruins and Idaho number together less
than 10000 people, more than 5000 less thrn
the population OF Utah, which Is excluded from
the Union because Il IL supposed 70 be Demo
cratic.
The World knows better; IL knows that
the most vigorous opponents to the admis-
sion of Utah have included some of the
ablest Democrats who have served in con-
gress Of recent years. Randolph Tucker.
of Virginia, was conspicuous for his oppo-
sition to the admission Of Utah.
The real reason why Utah is refused adj
mission to the Union is because it is
governed by hierarchy, whose rise and
growth represents modern return on the
part of ignorant, sincere, fanatical minds
to the obsolete acceptation of the Old Tes-
lament literally as the only guide today of
man in all matters, religious, social and
civic. The Mormon church was a sincere
attempt to re-establish the Hebrew
theocracy in Utah. The Mormon
rests his plea of plurality of
wives upon Scripture and when
reproached with polygamy quotes the ex-
ample of the patriarchs and their polyga-
my. Just as the defenders of human
slavery less than thirty-five years ago
united In both Northern and Southern
pulpits in defending slavery from the Old
Testament. The evil growths Of slavery
and polygamy rested their modern sur
vival on the pernicious teaching that He
brew civilization, as set forth in the Old
Testament, whether social or theocratic,
was moral law and spiritual guidance for
the modern world. So the Mormon
church was sincere attempt to establish
literally the Hebrew theocracy in Utah.
This church its communicates claim to
be "a government of God" and this is
the reason why it is and always viii be
when in power insuoordinate to the
United States and to all "local" GENTLE
authority.
This is the reason why the Republican
party refuses admission to Utah, because
it is absolutely unfit for home rule so
long as the Mormon hierarchy really is the
governing force. Allegiance to the Nor
mon church is supreme with the Mormon;
his church is higher than the law; his
practice of polygamy is in defiance of law.
As . territory the United States gov
eminent is able to control Utah and
protect Its Gentle population, but
IL Utah was once granted state
hood the Mormons would control
its whole polity, and the Gentle popula-
ton would be placed at disadvantage.
Utah win never be fit subject for state
hood until the Mormons in numbers and
influence cease to be the governing po-
hticd forces, and for this reason the Re
publican party Ii justified in its exclusion
from the Union Of fanatical, ignorant
hierarchy seeking to become a state.

DREAM OF THE FUTURE.

The miller dreams not at what cost
The quivering niilstones hum and whtrl,
Nor how for every turn are lost
Armfuls of diamond and of pearl
But summer cleared my happier eyes
With drops of some celestial juice,
To see how beauty underlies
Forever more each form of use.
And more: methought I sawthat food,
Which now so duh and darkling steals,
Thick, here and there, with human blood,
To turn the world laborious wheels.
No more than doth the miller there,
Shut in our several cells. do we
Know with what waste of beauty rare
Moves every days machinery.
Surely the wiser time shall come
When this fine overplus of might,
No longer sullen, slow and dumb,
Shall leap to music and 70 light
In that new childhood of the earth
Life of itself shall dance and play,
Fresh blood in Times shrunk veins make mfrt
And labor meet delight half way.

A Trout Lake High i'm the Hills.

Back of E. C. Nelson's place, away up In the
mountain, at q distance of probably 500 or loo
feet above the Columbis, lies clear water lake,
nesting gently among the big frs and spruces.
The lake covers an area of about and acre in ex-
tent and is filed with splendid trout As to
how the fish got there Is miracle, as there il
apparently no outlet or inle. of any kind to the
lake, which is very deep in places. Along the
shores are strewn numerous sea shells, which
goes to show that at some period in Washing
toms history the Pacific ocean had covered this
section and left its traces in the she'll deposits.
The lake apparently has about the same amount
OF water in il all seasons OF the year, the dry
weather in summer and the rainy weather in
the winter seeming 10 affec. 1t but very little.

The Best Time

To work, while you can; to
sow wild oats, never; to sing,
when you feel like it; to laugh,
is when you can afford to. The
best time to think is before you
act; to take care Of your health
is before you lose it; to make a
good resolution is when you in
tend to keep it; to Judge another
is when you are in the same
predicament. The best time to
stop your meanhess is before you
commence.

THE old ballad says, Spring
would be but gloomy weather if
we had nothing else but spring.
Yet what is brighter than the
sunshine of an ever cheerful
spirit? Who more blest than the
giver of pleasant words and
kindly. looks? Not the insipid
inanities of an existence without
an object-of a nature too indo-
lent to get ruffled. Not this, but
the influence of strong individ-
uality diffusing itself among
others, and gliding the passing
hour with a genial glow. A
mother of many daughters was
wont to say, "Girls, cultivate
cheerfulness; it will stand you
in hand through all your life"
A wise fathers injunction was,
" Kind words cost nothing; do
not grudge them, especially to
VOr1r social interiors - A oain
"Take the world as you find it
you cannot mould people to suit
your ideas. Give them credit
for meaning as we'll as you do"
An unerring test of a young
girls choice of books is to read
nothing that she would blush to
read aloud to a gentleman friend.
The hero of "The Initials" is
made to give this advice to Hill
degarde. Just so i'll our social
comningling it were we'll if we
did not ever say of another what
we would leave unsaid were that
other within earshot. Be cheer
full and you will never feel cross.
Before the mighty power of
happy, buOyant spirit fly the le-
gions of envy, hatred and malice
and all uncharitableness. The
shining sun Of the heavens dis
pels the miasma of the marshy
vallies. The sun Of cheerfulness
scatters the mists that lie deep
down in the darkened soul of
discomfort and unrest.

REPUBLICANS TO GO.
All Will lie Discharged From city Hall
Work.

At the meeting Of the Council Committee
on Grounds and Buildings next Monday
night. II is evident that Il will be found out
who are Democrats and who are Republic
cans among the workers Of the City Han.
4 resolution was passed by the committee
about two weeks ago that none but Demo-
Gratis should be employed. and instructed
Coz. .ulsnaw to employ only such men.
Colouei Cutshaw at once began 10 carry
out the instructions, and found no dlmculty
in ascertaining the politics OF the hod-car-
riets and other latOrtrs. who nrOmpllf pre-
sented Certificates from the chairman or the
civ Democratic Committee and other re-
spOnshle persons. But in the case Of the
stOne-cutters the desired information was
not forthcoming. These labOrers belong 10
the StOne-cutters' Union. and II seems
that IL Is one Of the principles Of their order
not TO allow politics 10 enter into anything
they may do and 70 stand by each other re-
gardless OF the political faith Of the men,
bers.
The stonecutters held a meeting and the
foreman reported % Colonel Cuishaw that
al the men were Democrats as far as
then stated 90 him. This statement. hUw'
ever. was not altogether satisfactory for the
committee. for ii had no directness or per-
sOnality shout il.
Accordingly. resolution was adopted
that unllneX Monday night the stop cut
tiers would be- giyon the chance 20 hroduce
the desired certificates from Chairman
Lamb or other responsible Democratic citi-
zens as 10 their Democracy.
There are thirty-0ne st0necutters and
masOns and three blacksmiths nj work on
/ the City Hall who nav not produced the
certificates All the laborers, with the eX
ception Of one, have done go. and 10 is prob
! g. bic that the one missing will Dee fDrthcOm
/ ing 30 few days. Mr.. David LeyshOn II
/ foreman. and is the man who made the re
port 90 the committee.
Certificates viii also be required of the
| foreman Of the cutters, bricklayers, iron
workers machlnists, engineer for engine
and day. hight atd sunday watchmen.
About two years ago the Grounds ans
Buildings Committee passed resolution
% discharge all Republicans from the CITY
Hall work and give their places 90 Demo
Gratis. The st0nccutters became indle

reported that all would strike n "a fepuh

was raised 90 the action OF the committee
