THE GREAT LIBERATOR.
The greatest man who lived in the
days when the war cloud lowered over
the land was Abraham Lincoln. A
rugged man was he; one of those rough
diamonds whose beauty consists not in
the cutting nor in the polish of the ia
ces, but it is purely of its reflection
of the sunlight In this man there was
mirror, which reflected back all the
good there was in life and buried be-
yond recall all the evil. He never saw
anything in human nature which was
not capable of being advantageously
turned to the betterment of man; there
was never a cloud on the horizon of the
republic that had not for him silver
lining.
Lincoln was man among men. I'm
lettered. as compared with the states
men of this day and age, in the days
when he lived and acted ne was a per-
son with rare ability. 1t is hardly pos
sible to picture a person who could
have taken hold of the nations bust
ness at that time and carried it
through, as ne QlQ, WIFI DIS SQCcSSSIul
result From the beginning of the
struggle, when he was watched by
those who would have assassinated him
on the eve of his inauguration, until
after Lee had surrendered to Grant at
Appomattox, he was the same. Jovial,
yet possessed of a seriousness equal to
the emergency, Lincoln was an ideal
president during the days of the rebel
lion.
The veterans of today go to the sew
er9l cemeteries and bedeck the graves
of their fallen comrades with flowers.
This is meet and fitting, because these
men assisted in the preservation of the
republic. But as we meet to display
our gratitude for those who have
taken part in the actual strife we
should not dispel from our memories
the fact that the commander of all
these people was that great man whose
memory is revered in every home in
the land.

But if we shudder at those enormous
figures let us read again the words of
the immortal Lincoln and draw COM
fort from his inspiring philosophy. At
his second inauguration near the close
of the war he said:
"On the occasion corresponding to
this, four years ago, all thoughts were
anxiously directed to an impending
civil war. All dreaded it, all sought to
avert it. While the inaugural address
was being delivered from this place,
devoted altogether to saving the Union
without war. insurgent agents were in
the city seeking to destroy it without
war-seeking to dissolve the Union and

on FACIAL SECURITY.

Stratton. the carpenter who made
the wonderful Cripple Creek find, has
his troubles. just the same as we do
over-well. say the Sheridan bureau.
When Stratton went to Cripple
Creek. a few years ago, he was a poor
carpenter. He managed to exc out a
precarious livelihood by running his
face as they say in Helena, on a lone
widow who was proprietress of a board
ing house. One day the landlady un-
derwent a change Of heart in the mat
ter OF facial security and Stratton was
told to 60 elsewhere for his board and
keep. He went.
Subsequently he struck it rich. And
in the first flush of his wonderful
wealth he did not start an opposition
boarding house to get even, but squared
his account with his old landlady by
making her a present of $1,000.
But the matter did not end with the
1000. The widow thinks she has a
good thing and is going to push it
along. She has sued the Cripple Creek
Croesus for 5000, 600 for breach of
promise.

O N LIKE OUR SYSTEM.

The trials and Jribulations Of a cOun-
try editor are as numerous as Jack
rabbits in the Big Hole country. We
have ours, which. thank Heaven, act
as an antidote to that feeling caused by
the receipt of our annual passes over
three continental railways, and an or
der from a we'll known baking powder
concern, renewing a three-inch adver-
Using contract for another year.
Success is dangerous. Swell-head
usually walks hand in hand with it:
and it is probably for our own good
that we are occasionally sat down upon
just about the time u power and USE
fulness begins to dawn upon Us.
And this is the cause of our cogita-
ton:
We have long had in mind the estab-
lishment Of a Sheridan bureau Of the
MADISONIAN. We we're of the opin-
ion that u pretty little neighbor
down the valley was entitled to a good
news service in the county paper. We
dreamed of the results of such a pro-
ject. But an enterprising co-tempor-
airy in another county got in ahead of
us one week. This was too bad, from
our point of view. but did not deter us
from u purpose.
The business men of Sheridan met
us more than half way. We secured a
correspondent and likewise about two
columns of standing advertisements,
greatly to the chagrin of the cores
pondent of u rival, who until we en-
tered the field fondly imagined himself
the newspaper autOcrat Of the Ruby
valley and had gotten married on the
strength of it.
The success attendant upon our eff
forts at Sheridan was of Il kind that is
dangerous to fresh young men and we
were seriously thinking Of adding a
buckstring to our headgear. when the
article signed ''Old Timer appeared
in last weeks Twin Bridges Monitor.
The article in question should have ap-
pSti SN IN N,1h o1loiS anu ulltlOlbltN-
ly would have. but for the fact that
our contemporary was in a trance like
state and failed to make Its appearance
for that week. 1t was timely medicine
however.
We are Of the ouinion that the arti-
Gle in question vas written by some
one very much interested. else there
would be no objection to the Sheridan
bureau. which is certainly something
needed, and has the unqualified en-.
dorsement OF the business men of Sher.
idan. We are very sorry that "Old
Timer" does not approve of our system
but if he does not have an injunction
issued restraining us from further work
in Sheridan we will endeavor to pursue
the even tenor of our way.
