why the American Government Bough
Tho Territory from Russia.
Prof. George P. Wilcox, of Chicago, re
veals in the Congregationalist a well-kcp
secret of the late war. He says that tn
purchase Of Alaska from Russia by tn
United States Government in 1867 wa
really not for the acquisI5 non of more terri
tory, but was for the purpose of paying
debt of the war which President Lincol
and Secretary Seward contracted. At th
time, during the war, when it looked az
though England and France were going t.
take hold and help the Co~nfederacy in earn.
est, President Lincoln secured from Russia
a fleet of war vessels to help defend our
ports and assist in maintaining the block
ade Of Southern ports. The presence of
Russian vessels off some of our harbors was
a mystery at the time, and they departed as
mysteriously as they came. Their departure
was due to the fact that the a~pprehended
danger from England and France did not
materialize, and then the question arose
how Russia could be compensated. Presi-
dent Lincoln had used his war power freely
and Congress had backed him up, and here
was a bill for millions, and he feared that
he would be criticised for mourning it, al
though it was a wise thing to do when he
did it. While the President was hesitating
how to get at it the war closed and the
President was ass~assinated, and Mr.,
Seward was left to solve the problem. Rus
STA wanted the money, but she had appre-
ciated the situation and waited patiently.
Finally the project of getting Congress to
authorize the purchase of Alaska was hit
upon, and the s7,200,0O0 that we paid Russia
for Alaska was really in payment of the
feet bill and Alaska was thrown in. The
secret was so well kept that General W. T.
Sherman heard of it for the first time in
Russia, and he kept the story to himself
until a recent army reunion. Secretary
Seward must have shared with some of the
Congressman his secret of the real reason
why he wanted Alaska bought at a time
when the United States Government needed
money more than territory, but if he did
they guarded well his condolences

In a message to the thirty-seventl,
congress Abraham Lincoln said: SIN
my present position ] could scarcely
be justified were l to omit raising "A
warning voice against the approach of
returning despotlsm. 1t is not needed
nor fitting here that a general argumen
should be made in favor of popular in
stitutions, but there Is n point not so
hackneyed to which l ask a brief al
tention, 1t is to the effect to place
capital on an equal footing with. if MT
above, labor in the structure Of govern
ment. 1t is assumed that lahor is
available only IN connection with capi
tai; that nobody labors unless some
body else owning capitol somehow in
duces him to labor. But capital is the
fruit of labor and could never have ex-
listed if labor had not first existed. La
Dor IS the superior of capital, and de.
serves much the higher consideration"
The Black range. (Robinson, Socorro County, N.M.) 1882-1897, 1894-07-20

The closing down of the Rio Grande
smelter was on account of the lack of
dry silver ores. The district that on
May LIST, 1898 supplied about four thou
sand tons on May LIST. 1864, supplied
less than four hundred tons. The low
price of silver and the uncertainty of
business was the cause.-SocorrO
