PICTURE OF GREAT VALUE.
Photograph of Lincoln and Frame
Made of Fence Rail That Had
Been Split by Him.

A large photograph of Abraham Lin
coin. in frame made from rail split
by the great war president, came to
light at Sycamore, ILL.,, recently, while
H. S. Farley, a lawyer, was removing his
Office from one business block TO an
other Attached to the frame was a
written document revealing the his
tory of the interesting relic. The pho
tograph was taken by Mcclellan at
Springfield, and shows Lincoln without
a beard The picture had none of the
aid of retoucher, and, therefore. the
rough, wrinkled face, with the mole
prominent on the right cheek, is brought
out more prominently than in any other

Usually There's Hot Time in the
Senate When They Engage in
Wordy Warfare.

There Is no lack OF that kind OF inter-
est which borders on excitement when
Spooner and Tillman get at it in the
United States senate The Wisconsin
senator absolutely bats the South Caro-
linian, and he apparently enjoys with
the galleries the roars which follow the
batting, though some of the staider SEN
ators look at the thing little askance.
The center aisle-neutral ground-sep-
arstes the desks Of the two senatorial
warriors who charge up to the line
which splits the aisle's center and hurl
their taunts and answers.
When Spooner speaks Tillman fixes
his one but gIittering eye on the Wis
consin man and watches rather than

81 am candidate for nomination
for the Office of governor of West Vir-
ginia. 1t is the highest and most inn
portant office within the gift of the
people of the state, and one worthy
the ambition Of any man. have been
n student of public affairs since | was
Is years OF age and have devoted the
most of my life to these things. | am
90 years Of age, and have been
worker for the republican party for 80
years. More than 26 wears have been
at the head of political committees
10 years chairman of a county commit
tee and 13Iyears chairman of the state
committee.
Il am in favor of better public
roads. of more assistance to the
schools of the rural districts. and Of
tax reform not the sham sort but
the real sort. have been so since
my term of service in the state senate

ought to be revised and reformed. |
favor the abolition of the state taxes

the levying of taxes be confined to
county lines let the state find other
means to raise its revenue; this is
what is known as "local option" in
taxation. 1t is the modern system
and the letter system-a system Just

mote the PEOPLES interest.

believe, is consistent with the fore
going statements.
