LINCOLN'S WIDE SYMPATHY.
Treated All People Alike in a Courteous
 Manner.

Treated All People Alike in a Courteous
 Horace Greeley once said: I doubt whether man, woman or child, white or black, bound or free, virtuous or vii cious, ever accosted or reached forth ..and to Abraham Lincoln and detect ed in his countenance or manner any repugnance or shrinking from the prof. fered contact, any assumption of supe- riority, or betrayal of disdain.'
 "Frederick Douglas, the orator and patriot, is credited with saying: MT. Lincoln is the only white man with whom I have ever talked, or in whose presence have ever been, who did not consciously or unconsciously betray to me that he recognized nay color
 George Bancroft, the historian, al- luding to this characteristic, which was never so conspicuously manifested as during the darker days of the war, beautifully illustrates it in these mem orable words: AS child, in a dark night, on rugged way, catching hold of the hand of it's father for guidance and support, Lincoln clung fast to the hand of the people and moved calmly through the gloom"

WHY ENGLAND IS GREAT.
A Native Offers an Explanation-Britain's
 Naval Superiority.

How was it that kalf ap island over which Queen Elizabeth ruled developed into the worldwide empire over which Queen Victoria reigns? First and fore most, says Blackwoods Magazine, it must be referred to the qualities of the race, their energy and adventurous spirit, their capacity to colonize, to rule subject races, and to administer their affairs. That race was sprung of sue cessive seafaring invoders of these is lands who were trained for generations in the ardaous defense of these shores, and taught to achieve naval superior ity as necessity of their position.
 AS early as Edward H. the sover- eighty of the narrow seas was asserted, and conceded as a matter of course by the people of the low countries. As centuries rolled on, the insularity of our position became more marked as our possessions, in Europe dwindled away. The drill sergeant, who is the artificer of German fortunes, has had no ascendency in these islands, whose preoccupations have not risen from mil itary empires on their boundaries. Naval superiority has been the guarantee of our shores, and at the same time the foundation of an empire which has grown up beyond the seas. The same qualities which achieved ordered liberty at home spread commerce, settlements and empires abroad.

PAID ONE AT A TIME.
Pennies Not Legal Tender in Amounts of
 More Than Twenty-Five Cents.

More Than Twenty-Five Cents.
 There is a postmaster in a little town not far distant, who is noted for the amount of authority he is inclined to show in trivial matters. A short time ago, says the Mount Morris (Mich.) Union, business man of the place ap- peared before the stamp window of the office and demanded 300 one-cent stamps, for which he laid down an equal number of pennies. Here was good chance for the authoritative gentleman, and with view of teaching his impor- tance, he picked 25 pennies from the heap, handed oft 25 stamps and showed the rest of the money to the woulei-be buyer with the remark that pennies were not legal tender there in amounts of more than 25 cents.
 Expostulation was in vain, the post master cited the law in the case and that seemed to settle it. With a malicious gleam in his eye the buyer swept the re- maining p&nnies into his pocket and mildly inquired: q suppose I can get a one-cent stamp here for penny, can't I?" Certainly" ss-a4 the man at the window. ''Then gWe me a one-cent stamp" said the other laying down the money. It was handed to him, and he demanded another and another after that. Several peorlc had come in n the meantime, and n,.u ;inpat;eEtiy wat ing their turn al li.e window. tut the obdurate buyer 4.-r oil gravely buying one-cent stamps on the instailment plan. Seeing determination in the face of the other, the postmaster offered to arbitrate, but it was of no avail. He continued to buy as long as his money lasted, and triumphantly departed amidst the approving smiles of the crowd.

AFTER THE ARMADA.
The Combination of Trade and Private
 War Under Eliza beth.

The Combination of Trade and Private
 War Under Elizabeth.
 The defeat of the Armada inspired England with energy and hope. Our people, says Blackwood's Magazine, be- came busy traders. Flemish traders had been ruined by war, Flemish refu- gees had focked into England, and Antwerp, the great port for new world commerce, had been sacked and taken. England succeeded to the trade of which the Dutch had been deprived. Beyond the ocean lay a vast world of wealth, of which Spain, united with Portugal, claimed the monopoly, thereby eXclud- ing English commerce from the larger half of the planet. Systematic vio- lence-that is, the combination of trade with private war-was the only mode in which this monopoly could be at tackled.
 Elizabeth connived at this covert mar itime war both before and after the Armada, and the struggles between Eng fish traders and Spanish monopolists were far too numerous and important to admit of peace between the two gov ernments. It was this spirit of com mercial adventure, whether it be called piracy or a heroic attempt to rescue the new world from the inquisition and give it back to the free use of the human race, which was the first step in the de- velopment of three colossal growths- British trade, British empire, the Brit ish navy.

 the Outside World.
 Everyone who has "done'' the Louvre will remember the low-pitched and somewhat gloomy halls in which are stored the treasures of Egypt. Beneath these lie yet more darkly mysterious vaults, inaccessible to the public, though approached by wide and hand some staircase, such as would lead one to imagine that it communicated with Apartments of some importance. Yet one finds at the bottom nothing but broad passages disposed in the form of a cross, and without any sign what ever of door or window.
 A recent examination. however. of the solid walls gives experts reason to believe that the masonry IS more recent than the rest of the structure in this, the oldest portion of the fortress pal ace.

Ruddock Again Escapes.


East 0regonian: Isaac Rudock and
John Riley, prisoners in the Umatilla
county jail, walked out from behind the
bars through the open Jail doors Monday
evening and made for tall timber.
Riley made successful escape, and,
when night had closed down. he was still
at liberty. But Rudock was quickly re-
captured, and, for the second time,
brought back to the Jail, captured fugi.
tive. Ruddock was seen walking toward
the railroad track, and the officials in the
sheriff's Office were informed that Rud-
deck was abroad in the land. A quick
search Of the jail was made, and the dis.
covery was that Ruddock and Riley were
missing.
Ruddock was found down at the o. r.
& N. Cos track hiding under car.
He remarked when once more in GUS
tody that he would always walk out Of
Jail when the doors were found open and
he could 80 easily escape.

will The w. & c. 3. Extend.

1t is understood, although the officials
of the road are reticent about the matter,
that should the 0. R. & N. extend it's
road from Dayton to Covello that the w.
& O. r., will also branch out in that
direction, probably as tar as Lewiston,
Idaho. The trade of the rich agricultural
region east of Dayton is bone of con-
tention between the rival roads, which
will probably end before fall in both
roads having lines into that part Of the
country.
The intimation that the W. & @. R.,
contemplates branching out to Lewiston
seems to partially fulfill predictions made
some time ago that, according to the sur
vey ofthe Burlington route, it was highly
probable that the line would strike Lew
liston, thence 60 on to Dayton, where the
w. b O. r, would be utilized to the
Columbia and so ON to the coast. 1t is
with this end in view, possibly, that
this extention will be made, which, fl
carried out, will place Walla Walla on q
main line of one Of the great transconti'
mental roads.
