rapher" might be more correct
stvle Of clubbing him--who knocks the
breath of the Northern people the
very first dash out of his box when
he proclaims that the immortal
LINCOLN was an alias" for ENLOE
which this distinguished prince OF
legerdemain saws was the Emancipa-
tors right name: and that henceforth
we must forget that name, the name
around which cluster the memories OF
earth's saddest, darkest transaction
in blood, the name that shines with
the brilliancy and whiteness Of a

to change the name of Calvary 5

Benedict Arnold. This is rather a
late hour for such chicanery. and the

don't.-Felicity Ohio Times.
1t is with no purpose to do vio-
lence to LincoIn's name or reputa-
ton that Mr.. Cathey has published
the book in question. He has simply
| compiled and not written it in the
sense that noveiists write. Mr..
| Cathey is indeed sincere admirer of
Mr.. Lincoln and pays very high and
merited tribute to him as great and
good man, si:gularly gifted and re-
markedly endowed.
We do not understand that there is
any chicanery about Mr.. Cathey's
work and that it has not been done
before is due simply to the fact that
no one seemed disposed to take the
time and trouble to gather the ma
terial and put it into form as he has
| done.

of the book and investigate the

A JUST COMPLAINT.

That there is cause for the follow
ing complaint which comes from the
Littlcton NcwS Reporter, those who
are familiar with the facts will
readily admit. And that a reform is
needed right along this line they will
also agree. No man should be forced
to leave his work unless he is paid
for his time lost and all necessary en-
penSes, but perhaps it would be
difficult to ad uSt matters in that
way. Certainly he should receive
enough to meet legitimate expenses.
though. Our contemporary says:
There is something radically wrong
with the treatment of witnesses and
jurors in the courts of North Caro-
lima, \ Juror or witness is called
from his work to attend court, and
must attend or take the consequences,
and but few care to do that. He NAV
or may not have ready cash at hand
to meet necessary food and bed bills
while in attendance upon court, but
he must 90 just the same. For his
services he is only promised a sum
sufficient to keep him at the lowest
price lodging and eating house.
When discharged from service h" is
given a ticket that he often finds it
difficult to realize one half of its face
value. He cannot afford to skip his
landlords board bill, and the re-
enumeration is not sufficient to meet
the demands. hence he must lose his
time from his own business, serve
the State, and to great extent pay
his own expenses: while many of his
fellow men draw large salaries from
the state and grow rich following
the orders of the State. This is a
hardship that should be rcmedied
and our great lawmakers would act
wisely in correcting.

It's True.

That advertising doesn't pay-un-
less it's followed up properly.
That an advertisement which costs
nothing is usually worth nothing.
That no advertising man ever was
successful who didn't learn from his
mistakes.
That little fire may start a big
blaze-but if you don't keep on feed
ing it, it'll 60 out.
That many man lays a failure,
due to loose business methods, at the
door of his advertising department.

THE REAL HERO.

Colonel Picquart is, after all. the
real hero of the Dreyfus case. lola
stands close to him. but tempted no
such perils for the sake of Justice as
Picquart did. and his desperate
battle for the right will be rewarded
in WAYS and a measure that Picquart
knew with absolute certainty were
not possible in his own case. The
London Times in the course of a most
eloquent tribute to this truly admir-
able officer. says: 1t is some cen
ISOLATION in the midst of SO much
perfidy and cowardice to recognize in
Colonel Picquart the noblest type of
loyalty and courage. 1t is to him
more than to any other man that the
unhappy Captain Dreyfus owes his
escape from the terrible doom to
which he was illegally condemned.
Pure love of right for rights sake APP
pears to have been the motive which
led this brave and honest man to at
tempt to get justice for his brother
officer. He seems to have had a
dislike for the prisoner. He re-
spected and believed in his chiefs.
He was the youngest officer OF his
rank; he had a brilliant future before
him, and all he had to do to secure
it was to take the hint given him by
his superiors and hold his tongue
He preferred to face hatred. persecu-
ton, exile. loss Of rank and solitary
imprisonment. He has never waver-

WINGED them by the most striking OF
proofs that, despite all the baseness
and all the corruption which have
laid bare, there are still in the gallant
French army officer and gentlemen OF
whom any service might be proud
Every word of this is true and
deserved.-NewY York Times.

OF ORDNANCE
At Its Head Stands Rear Admiral
Charles ONeiL
One of the Abiest Oficer. of the Navy.
Whose knowledge of Guns and
Ammunition Is Virtually
Unlimited.

Rear Admiral Charles O'Neil, who is
at the head of the ordnance bureau of
| the navy department, was born in 1872.
| He was appointed from Massachusetts,
having received his early education in
| the grammar and high schools of Rox-
| bury-now part of Boston, Mass. Be
fore entering the navy he made two
voyages to the East Indies before the
mast, in the merchant service, in the
| Newburyport ship Oliver Putnam. 1t
| foundered in the Indian ocean on his
| second voyage, and while all hands
| were finally rescued, they endured many
privations before reaching land. Ad-
miral O'Neil entered the navy in 1861,
and his first service was on board the
sloop-of-war Cumberland which was
destroyed on March 5, 1862, of New
port News, Va, by the confederate
ironclad Merrimac. lie was promoted
for gallantry on this occasion, and then
served with Admiral Wilkes in the spe-
cial West Indian squadron, on board
the gunboat Troja, on which he re
mained until the summer of 1854, when,
being taken ill with yellow fever, he
was detached and given a short leave to
recuperate.
He next joined the gunboat Rhode
Island. and took part in the capture of
Fort Fisher. In 1865 he became a lieu
tenant, and served as such on several
vessels, being promoted to lieutenant
commander in 1868. In this grade he
served on the east coast of South Amer
lea, in China, and on the home station,
and spent couple of years in the train
ing ship for apprentices He was pro-
NOTED to commander in 1854, and to
captain in 1927, having been in charge
of various vessels on different stations,
his last command being the Marble
head. While on shore duty he devoted
himself exclusively to ordnance mat
tiers, and was on two occasions the su-
perintendent of the naval gun factory
