Important from it's suggestion for e re-
stricted franchise for negroes, an auto
graph letter from President Lincoln to
Michael Hahn, governor Of Louisiana un-
der the federal occupation of 1864, has
been on exhibition for the last week in the
windows Of the Tilden-T hurber company
The letter is owned by customer of the
company living In Connecticut It's owner
values 1T SO highly that he has refused
$1,000 for 1t. 1t is given as one of the
important state papers of Lincoln in Henry
J. Raymond's Life, Public Services and
State Papers of Abraham Lincoln and is
quoted in full by Nicolay and Hay in their
Abraham Lincoln: A History. The let
ter is in excellent condition when its age
is considered with the fact that it has evil
IDENTIFY been carried in the pocket of the
owner for some time. 1t has been opened
so often that in places the folds have worn
thru, but it is still distinctly legible and IS
entirely in the hand of Lincoln. That it
was regarded as important by .he presi-
dent is shown by the fact that he marked
it Private in one corner, and in the end
ing of the letter reminded Hahn who had
been inaugurated governor only nine days
before the date Of the letter, and who
was Invested with the powers of a mill
tary governor of the state two days after
the letters date, that the suggestion is
made to him alone.
The letter reads as follows:

MASSACHUSETTS STATE ROADS
Movement Brought About by the Influx Of Summer Visitors
How the State Able to These Beautiful Highways
Many Counties Catch the Idea Go Work Themselves

blue to make things pleasant for the
summer visitor. To this purpose good
roads have become nearly as inpor
tant as the Cape Cod air and the salt
WATER
From 1894 to 1900, seven years,
Massachusetts spent $3,500,000 in good
roads and the maintenance cost the
commonwealth something less than
100000, according to the report Of
the commission in 1901. This is a
remarkably small cost for repairs,
when it is understood that the COM
mission considers maintenance and re-
pairs of utmost Importance. Till
rut before it becomes a rut" is an
Irish way of expressing the commits
sion's policy. In the selection of roads
to be built, the commissioners are re-
stricted, first by the law that provides
that "all construction of state roads
shall be fairly apportioned among the
lifferent counties, and secondly, it
has to await the petitions of the mu
inequalities or the county commission
ers. The aim is to make the roads
continuous and this they can accom-
plish only by rejecting the petitions
which may block the general scheme,
or by counseling with those having the
right to petition in advance; of their
formal requests. sr
When the county, town or city Off
calls decide that the public necessity
and convenience require the COM
ilmonwealth to take charge of a new or
an existing road as q, state road they
can petition the commission. If the
commission makes it a state highway
then the road is constructed and main
i'tained at the commemorative eX-
pense. The state even pays the prop
i,erty damages. Ia return the county
(repays to the commonwealth one
Quarter Of the money expended for
iroads in its borders. This is paid
terest. The commission plants shade
trees along the highways when feast
BILE and also establishes watering
! .troughs.
! Many Counties Build for Themselves.
+ This seems d very liberal arrange
ment from the county's point of view,
/ but it must be borne in mind that
these state roardS are only small
portion of those needed in a wealthy
community. SO many miles OF nigh
ltway are built by the counties them
lselves, particularly is this the case
when the people have had the object
llesson Of a few miles OF state roads.
when a county or town under $4,000
i would build for itself the commits
/ sion lends at it's own expense steam
Irollers, portable crushers and all
other road building machinery neces--
/, sary Erection of poles, laying OF
pipes or digging in these highways is
! forbidden except county or city
authorities have given consent, and
! then only in accordance with the
regulations Of the commission.
1 And so there are endless laws to
make road building and road main
tenance easy and to make road de-
struction costly. In ten years the
] state has been lined with smooth high
/ ways. Not the kind that run OH sec
/ zion lines. but roads that generally
! follow the natural contour of the land;
a method that is expensive and also

CHAPTER VI.
A Safe,Man.

James Wheaton was 35 years old,
and was >reckOned among the solid
young business men of ClarksOn. He
had succeeded far beyond his expec-
tations and was fairly content with
the round of the ladder that he had
reached. He never talked about
himself and as he had no intimate.
friends it had never been necessary
for him to give condolences. His
father had been a harness maker in
a little Ohio town; he and his older
brother were expected to follow the
same business; but the brother grew
restless under the threat of enforced
apprenticeship and prevailed on
James to run away with him. They
became tramDs and enjoyed them
selves roaming thru the country. until
finally they were caught stealing in
a little Illinois village and both Were
arrested.
James was discharged thru the gen
crosby of his brother in taking all the
blame ON himself; the older boy was
sent to a reformatory alone. James
then went to Chicago, where he sold
papers and BACKED boots for year,
until he found employment as a train
boy, with a company operating on
various lines running out of Chicago.
This gave him a wide acquaint-
ance with western towns and in
cidentally with railroads and
railroad men. He grew tired Of the
road, and obtained at Clarkson a po-
sition in the. office of Timothy Mar
grave, the general manager of the
Transcontfnental. which, he had
heard, was a great primary school for
ambitious boys.
It was thus that his residence in
Clarkson was established. He at
tended school, - was aSSiduOl1s 4ir his
duties. and attained in due course the
cards of Margrave's callers, indexed
the letter books and copied figures
under the direction of the chief clerk.
After a year. hearing that one of the
Clarkson National banks messengers
was about to resign, he applied for
this place. Margrave recommended
him; the local manager of the news
| agency vouclled for his integrity, and
lin due course he wended the streets
| of C1arkson with a long l-book, the
outward and visible sign of his posi-
ton as. messenger. He was steadily
| promoted in the bank and felt his past
receding farther and farther behind
| him.
| When. at an Important hour of his
| life, Wheaton was promoted to be pay
| ing teller, he was in the receiving tell
| er's cage. He had known that the
| more desirable position was vacant
and had heard his fellow clerks spec
ulating as to the possibility Of a pro-
motion from among their number
Thompson, the cashier, had a nephew
| in the bank, and among the clerks 3 c
was thought to have the best chance
They all knew that the directors were
| in session, and several whose tasks
| for the day were finished, fingered
