1t is a yeritable hill 1,4SO feet long.
S75 feet wide, 1925 feet in circum.
ference, ranges from 20 to so feet in
height, and covers u acres of ground
1t is the accumulation of one lumber
company since 1877. Early in its
history the company tried to burn the
pile but the outside only would burn,
the flames refused to penetrate the
closely packed interior. Since then
chemical uses haye raised for saw
dust and the huge pile increases year
by year, pending conversion into
charcoal, ethrol, alcohol or oxalic
acid. On digging into the interior
the sawdust was found as bright as

Our manner of conducting Il news
paper may not be strictly in accord
with the ideas of others but we have
always considered the columns of the
JOURNAL the property of the people
who buy and pay for it. We feel
that each and every one, who puts a
dollrr into the JOURNAL should receive
full value for that dollar, and should
if they choose, be represented in its
columns. We have no enmity to-
ward anyone, neither do we wish to
slight, nor i'll treat any one. One
subscribers items are as gladly re-
ceived as another's; all go toward
making the paper readable and in
teresting, But at the present price
of the paper we are not justified in
hiring a special reporter; ineither can
we see all who come and go, but if
you who own these columns and who
wish to read good newsy paper will
do your part, there will be no need of
saying the JOURNAL shows partiality.
With telephones in our Office and
house, you, with phone in your
house, or your neighbor's, there need
not be an item escape the paper. If
your parties or your friends are not
reported, ask yourself if you are not
to blame, before complaining about
the publisher.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN
A Unique and Novel Edition of the
Emancipation Proclamation.

Designed and written with a steel
pen by r. Morris Swander, of Phila-
delphia, the shading of the pen form
ing the most correct allegorical por-
trait of Abraham Lincoln ever pro-
duced by any artist, and reproduced
by The Walker Lithographing & Print
ing company with additions of por-
traits of our three martyred presidents
Lincoln, Garfield and Mckinley.
AS work of art in penmanship it
has never been equalled.
Read "Blake's History of Slavery"
published in 1868, at Columbus, Ohio,
and comprehend the great magnitude
for oyer one hundred years in England
and America to destroy the slave
trade and slavery. and the billions of
money and the millions of lives lost
in the effort and you will readily COM
prehend the historical Importance of
Abraham Lincoln's emancipation
proclamation which so effectually
stamped out slavery in America.
AT the date when the emancipation
proclamation was issued, the London
(England) Spectator said: eve can
not read it without renewed convict
ion that it is the noblest political doc
ument known to history, and should
have for the nation and the statesmen
he left behind him, something of a
sacred and almost pathetic character.
Surely none was eyer written under
stronger sense of the reality of Gods
government, and certainly none writ
ten in a period of passionate conflict
ever so completely excluded the partl-
ality of victorious faction, and breath
ed so pure a strain of mingled justice
and mercy"
Every good housewife wants pic
lures to decorate her home. Why not
hang up picture that has so much
important history attached TO it and
at the same time will be such an i'm,
portant stlmulant to children in the
art of penmaHship.
Every soldier who served in the
civil war should be proud of the fact
that he was born in period that EN-.
abled him to be of service to his conn.
try in its most trying period of exist
ence. He can not find more appro.
pirate present than this emancipation
proclamation to pass down to poster.

services. A place is provided at the

was young man and entered this ser.
vice and another for his picture now
