HIS FIRST LAW PARTNER.
An Alliance Which Gave Lincoln All
the Responsibility.

An Alliance Which Gave Lincoln All
the Responsibility.
Major Stuart, with whom Lincoln
had joined forces, was not in his
early years a well read or even an
industrious lawyer, but he was pop
ular and had an extensive if not
very lucrative practice, which he
was entirely willing to intrust to his
new associate. Indeed, when the
firm was formed he was SO deeply
engrossed In politics that he gave
little or no attention to the law, and
Lincoln had to assume virtually all
responsibility for the business.
OF course if the procedure had
been complicated or technical nov
ice would have speedily come to
grief, but the character of litigation
was very simple in those days, the
precedents were few and far between
and the legal forms exceedingly elias
nc. Lincoln met such difficulties as
there were In his own way, asking as
little advice as possible and exer-
cising his ingenuity to bridge the
gaps IN his information when his
partner was not available for con-
sultation- The haAt of standing on
his own feet and doing his own
thinking, which was thus forced
upon him at the very outset of his
practice, became his most notable
trait. One of his contemporaries
closely In touch with his profession
al life testifes that he never asked
another lawyers advice on any sub
ject whatsoever. He listened to his
associates and consulted with them,
but he worked ont his own problems,
and there was never anything of the
"brain Taper about his relations
with the bar.
The influence of this early train
ing Is plainly discernible In the re-
markable self reliance and resource
fitness which he exhibited in his
later years. New questions did not
confuse him. He faced emergencies
with perfect serenity, and he had
long been accustomed to responsible
ity when he was called upon to de-
eide questions of national import

The Western Man.

Here is some ones conception of
the western man: "He rolled the
prairie up like cloth, drank Missis-
Gippi dry, put Allegheny in his hat,
q steamboat in his eye and for his
breakfast buffaloes some twenty-one
did fry. He whipped the whole Co
manche tribe one day before he
dined, and for a walking cane he
took California pine, and when he
frowned he was SO black the sun it
couldn't shine. He whipped a ton
of grizzly bears one morning with a
fan and proved himself by all these
4eats to be-a western man"

No Chance For Life.

Garsite was killed before he could
defend himself From the brush the
camp mover witnessed the slaughter
OF the sheep, which were dubbed to
death, and the destruction OF the
camp outfits by fire. When the Job
was completed the raiders rode leis-
urely away.
The fiocks were owned by Utah men,
and the raiders were undoubtedly cat
tlemen of Burnt Fork, who had re-
peatedly warned the sheepmen to
leave the country. The range on
which the outrage was committed has
long been in dispute. Heavy rewards
have been offered for the capture
OF the raiders.
The sheepmen are greatly excited
and may burn the ranches of the cat
tlemen and slaughter their cattle and
horses in retaliation. Further trouble
is anticipated, Garsite's body has
been taken to Lyman, Wyo,
