No statesman is quoted so earnestly
i'm America, for his supposed views on
topics on our day, as Abraham Lincoln.
1t is q usual experience to see contem-
pOrary arguments based on the opin-
ions of George Washington, but even
he comes below Lincoln in this species
of appeal The name of Jefferson, of
course, is used daily to decorate
speeches and editorials, but seldom
with the close and serious application
to the question that is made of Lin

houn, Clay, and the leaders generally
in debating and developing the consti-
tuition are quoted less than formerly,
and Hamilton, strong as he remains. is
not name to conjure with. Lincoln's
opinions hold a place apart.
The reason for this is to be found
rot In superiority to the other states
men in analysis of public questions
The domination of the Lincoln idea is
a moral domination. 1t is his personal
ity, his type, that the people worship
and appeal to. That aspect of him
which is most alive today, which will
for centuries bear most fruit, is the
quality of his spirit-his richness in
those principles which are generally
associated with the religion of Jesus.
Universally of sympathy was his, and
ferson, or Webster, or Calhoun. Wash
ington had an all-including sense of
right and justice, but it sprang from
his brain; it did not include great hui
manity of emotion. The Keynote of
the traditional Lincoln (Which is i'm a
large way true of the actual Lincoln)
is charity, or love of all men-charity,
which means sorrow, the sorrow of I'M

Such would be the spirit in which
Lincoln would perform his duties if he
were alive today, He would take a
position. firm and disintereSted, on each
important question that it became nee
essaTy to decide, but there would be for
him no diatribe, no violence. no stirring
of class hatred, no assumption that his
opponents were inhuman villains or
vampires. He would open his under
standing and his sympathy to capital
ist and laboring man, to Socialist and
reactionary to Democrat and Repub-
lican, to white and black, to protee-
ZIONIST and free trader, to those who

One bitinely cold morning a few days

the owners, blowing upon their fingers,
sought refuge inside the crowded car.
Suddenly one of them perceived that
the piece of mosquito netting which had
been stretched across the top of her
basket had become detached and was

Frantically she tore at the car door; as

The Mormons who settled in Canada
gave a peldge to the Canadian govern

practice of pOlygamy. Complaints were
soon made that they were violating the
compact, but investigation at the time
proved the charges to be groundless.

Twill these Mormon immigrants be
Canadian and British?" many a Cana
dian anxiously asks. Time is necessary
in which TO reply.
They are undoubtedly steadily in
creasing in numbers and are as stead
lily aggressive. as is to be expected. 1t
is true, also, that the Gentle popula-
tion in southern Alberta is growing less,
in view of the ceaseless prOSelytizing
influences of their Latter-day Saint
neighbors, and it is equally probable
that they will gain in time a CORE
spending voice in parliament.
There is as yet, however, no evidence
that the Mormons in Canada are doing
other than strictly obeying the laws of
the land, Indeed, they complain that
they are constantly being misrepre
scented in the discussions that have
arisen regarding their suitability as
immigrants.
