Abraham Lincoln.

Abraham Lincoln's birth day was
generally celebrated on February 18th
and a writer for the Chicago Journal
referring to Mr.. Lincoln says;
"Lincoln was a religious man. He
was not religious in the sense of hav-
ing decided on some particular kind
Of divinity suitable to himself and
rejected all Others. He was religious
in the broadcast and noblest sense. He
believed that men we're put here by a
Power which has prepared a way for
their ultimate welfare and salvation
here on earth.
of you want to study the workings
Of a mind noble and religious read to
your wife and children this utterance
of Lincoln after he had decided to
free the slaves:
"If we shall suppose that American
slavery is one Of those otfenseS which,
in the province of God must needs
come, but which, having continued
through His appointed time, He now
wills to remove; and that He gives to
both North and South this terrible
war, as the woe due to those by whom
the offense came, shall we discern
therein any departure from those d.
vine attributes which the believers In
a living God ascribe to Him? Fondly
do we hope, fervently do we pray, that
this mighty scourge of war may pass
away Wei if God wills that IL con-
tinue until all the wealth piled by
the bondman's two hundred and fifty
years Of unrequitted toll shall be
sunk, and until every drop Of blood
drawn with the lash shall be paid by
another drawn by the sword, Is was
said 5000 years ago, SO still it must be
said the judgments Of the Lord are
true and righteous altogether"

'sThe time for the saloon to go has
come. We are organizing an army Of

nothing can convey that thought so

DAUGHTER
Minnie Hultz is Spirited Away by a
Former Employe Of Her Father.

MARION, IND, Feb. 1.-THE IA
year-old daughter Of James Hultz was
kidnapped at Center Church, 9 miles
east of Marion, Friday night. The
girl went to the church in company
with her sister, Ada, who is Is years
old. After the service Miss Ada was
accompanied home by a gentleman
friend and Minnie was left in COM
pany with some neighbors. Minnie
was approached by John NARROW, Of

In a buggy by him and they disap-
peared.
The absence of Minnie was not dis
covered until Saturday morning. A
search was commenced at once, but
no trace of the missing girl has been
found.
James Hultz is a wealthy farmer
worth 800, 900, and it is thought the
daughter was taken for ransom. Mrs.
Hultz stated to-day that NARROW came
to their home in October and applied
for a position and was given work on
the farm. Because Of his attentions
to Minnie NARROW he was discharged
after working five days. Nothing
was heard of him until he was seen
at the church on the night of the dis
appearance of the girl.

In answer to a letter Of inquiry re
gardlng the reason why the free de

started, Hon. Champ Clark writes the
editor Of the LEDGER as follows;
To the Editor OF the Ledger.
WASHINGTON, ID. G., Feb. 49,
Dear Bob: l have your brief inquiry
Of the 10Th instant. The reason the
thing moves so slowly is because there
are thousands Of neighborhoods In the
country clamarous for Rural Free
Mail Delivery, while the force Of mer
at work under the Superintendent Of
Rural Free Delivery is small and the
appropriation is small. Therefore,
they can only supply at this time a
small percentage of the applicants,
though l have been able to secure
three routes for Audrain county with
several others pending. Your friend

John Abbay's Brother Hurt in Wreck
That Killed Four People.

The east bound limited express at
Mill City, Nevada, was wrecked on
Saturday night and the iiremen and
three passengers were killed. The
conductor, engineer, one brakeman,
one passenger and two postal clerks
were injured. The engineer who was
injured was Geo. Abbay, a brother Of
John Abbay, Of this city.
Mr.. Abbay is forty-four years old
and has a wife and three children. His
many friends in Mexico hope that his
injuries are not serious. Mr.. Abbay
vas here about two years ago on a
visit to his brother, John, and was at
that time a delegate to the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers Asso-
citation, which met in st. Louis. Mr..
Abbay has had this run for fourteen
years and had been on the same divls-
ion for twenty-seven years, which
shows the standing he had with the
company.
Mr.. John Abbay wired to-day for
particulars and is anxiously waiting
to hear whether his brother was in
jured seriously or not.

CAUGHT ONE %KIDNAPPER.
The Man Who Lured Cudahy Boy
Into the Buggy Identified
by the Lad,

OMAHA, NEB., Feb. l9.-One of the
three men implicated in the kidnap.
ping of Edward Cudahy, Jr,, has beer
arrested and is now in the jail. The
man was arrested Saturday night, but
the news was suppressed by the
police until to-day,
When the suspect was brought into
the presence Of young Cudahy fol
Identification, the young man said;
''This is the man who asked me to
get into the wagon. There is nc
doubt about it; he is the man."
The police thus far refuse to dt-
vulge the identity of the prisoner, but
it is known that he was arrested by
two local officers. He has been under
surveillance for some time, as it has
been known that he had been writing
letters concerning the Cudahy case,
and this fact brought suspicion upon
him

La CROSSE LUMBER COMPANY.
Buys Houston & Crows Lumber Yard
in Mexico.

The Lacrosse Lumber Company has
purchased Houston & Crows lumber
yard in this city, and leased the
ground on which the yard stands. The
Lacrosse Lumber Company will take
charge Of their new yard Just as soon
as the business ~oflinvoicing is finished.
The company will have its headquar-
tiers at the Houston s. Grow yard and
will use their old yard for storage pur-
poses, and will probably make Mexico
a distributing point, this company
having other yards in each direction
and on all the railroads. The new
yard will be In charge Of Mr.. Briscoe,
who is a splendid man for this impor-
tant position.
w. d. Grow will likely remain in
Mexico, as he likes this city very
much, and may go into some other
line OF business here soon. During his
stay in Mexico he has made many
friends, and we all hope that he will
make Mexico his home.
A. S. Houston has accepted a re-
sponsible position on the road for the
Huttig Sash & Door Factory, OF st.
Louis, with Mexico as his headquar-
tiers.
This leaves Mexico with only two
lumber yards, which is plenty for the
business. The Lacrosse Lumber Com
pany needs no introduction to the peo-
pie of Mexico, having been in business
here for a large number of years.
While this makes one yard less for
Mexico we still retain all the business
men who were interested in either
yard.
There has been no money in the
lumber business in Mexico for a great
while on the account of there being
too many yards here, the supply being
greater than the demand. The price
of lumber will not advance, at the
same time the business will not be so
divided, and both yards will be able
Ia make a fair profit.

Fined for Disturbing tbs Peace.

Charles Garner, who drives the bag
gage wagon, was fined s5s.45 in the
police court for disturbing the peace
of Miss Lizzie Burnett, the Western
Union telegraph operator in this city.
Miss Lizzie resides with her sister
just east of the public square, and
says that she had been disturbed once
or twice in the night by someone try
ing to break in and disturb her. The
other night Charles Garner woke her
up and insisted that she come down
town and send a telegram for him.
She insisted that he go to the depot,
and said that she had no business
sending kilograms at that time of the
night. Before leaving he created so
much disturbance that Miss Lizzie
had to file complaint and have him
arrested and fined as stated above.

THOMPSON, Feb. 49, Robert Ha-
mer, of Emporia, Lynn county, Kan,
was my guest or Sunday, the 18th.
Mr.. Hamer was born on the farm
known as the Spencer farm, two miles
west Of Thompson and moved twenty
three years ago, leaving the county at
the age of eleven years. His first
schooling was under G. G. Cunning
ham at the Daniels school house.
Mr.. Hammer visited his old homestead
yesterday, also the school house and
the Thompson grave yard, where he
has a sister buried. He said the
Daniel and Keeton families are the
only one Of his old acquaintance left
in the neighborhood.
Mr.. Hamer is one of the leading
lawyers of Emporia, and was elected
TO the Legislature on the Republican
ticket. | told him If he wanted to
''monkey" with politics he ought to
thank his father for getting him out
of Missouri, for il he had remained
here and lived as long as Methuselah
he never would have served in the
Legislature from Audrain county, for
We intended to see that no Republican
need apply.
Mr.. Hamer left on the nine O'Clock
train for C%entralla to visit the DAN
lei brothers, who we're his schoolmates
in the seventies. He said he had not
seen a black haw tree, or a hazel
bush since he left this State until
yesterday. His old friends were all
glad to see him. Yours truly,
