10y Councilman Fernstrom, the admin

evening voted 10 continue the course of
wasteful extravaganza which they
have been pursuing. by approving the
contract for an addition TO the crema-

The matter came on the report of the
finance committee recommending nat

FernstrOm presented a minority report
ia which he characterized the present
methods employed in running the Gre
matory as incompetent. and declared
that it was plenty large enough to
meet all demands for at least five years
if properly run. He proved his state
mcnt by figures taken from the 1906
report of the health department. by
which he showed that an average of
only eleven loads a day are disposed of
at the present plant. and that at least
three loads of this consisting of paper
and other easily cOmbuStible material
are burned on a vacant lot adjoining,
because the employees are either too
lazy to dump il into the furnace or too
incompetent to handle the plant

Delay Railroad Traffic Permit.

The engineering committee reported IN
fayorabiy on the application of the street
railway company to haul freight cars ON
Fifth South street from the Oregon short
Line yards to the location of their new
barns at Fifth South and Sixth East
streets. The grounds upon which the
committee based its report is that il
is not good policy to allow this to be done
Notwithstanding the fact that il had been
explained that all this material would
have TO be hauled by wagon over the same
street and that this would be more OH
jectionable than the proposed method
The committees action was referred 10
the municipal laws committee for further
action. ACCOMPANYING the reDOrt wac a
petition from Gieroge &. Lambert and
forty other property owners protesting
against allowing freight cars being hauled
over this track.

Lincoln the Farmer.

Matters soon reached a crisis which
drove the Junior partner out into the
fields again, where he undertook all
sorts of rough farm labor, from split
ting rails to blowing. AS man Of all
work, however, Lincoln did not prove
altogether satisfactory to his employ
ers. He was too fond Of mounting
stumps in the field and "practicing
polemics" on the other farm hands,
and there was something uncomforta-
bic about a plowman who read as he
followed the team, no matter how
straight his burrows ran. Such prac-
tices were irritating, If not presumptu-
Gus, and there is we'll known story
about farmer who found 1.-The hired

clothes, with book instead of q pitch

Lincoln In Prophetic Mood.

Lincoln In FHOpnct1C MOOD
1T was on the 9Th day of July, 1865"
General Daniel e. Sickles said recent
ly, that I was brought to Washington
on a stretcler from the field Of Gettys-
burg. Hearing of my arrival, Presi-
dent Lincoln came to my room and sat
down by my bedside. He asked me
about the great battle. and when
told him Of the terrible slaughter the
tears streamed from his eyes. l asked
him if he had doubted the result He
said, No. Then he continued:
""This may seem strange to you, but
a few days ago, when the opposing
armies were converging 1 felt as never
before my utter helplessness in the
great crisis that was to come upon the
country. l went into my own room
and locked the door, Then l knelt
down and prayed as had never pray
ed before. I told God that he had call
ed me to this position, that had done
all that l could do and that the result
now was in his hands; that felt my
own weakness and lack Of power and
that knew that if the country was to
be saved it was because he so willed it.
When 1 went down from my room,
felt that there could be no doubt Of the
issue. The burden seemed to have roll
ed off my shoulders, my intense anx-
iety was relieved, and in it's place came
a great sense Of trustfulness, and that
was why did not doubt the result at
Gettysburg. And, what is more, Sic
kles,' he continued, 4 believe that we
may hear at any moment of great
success by Grant, who has been peg
ging away at Vicksburg for so many
months. By tomorrow you will hear
that he has won a victory as impor-
tant to us in the west as Gettysburg Is
In the east. -~--~- ..-- ---~-
