ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

Ninety-eight years < today Abra-
ham Lincoln, one OF the greatest presi.
dents Of the United States, WAS born IN
a log cabin III Kentucky. His parents
were very poor and his early life was
spent i'll poverty. Bat there wns some
thing within him that ever strove for
higher and better things than could be
fonnd in his surroundings.
He grew To manhood in Illinois and
there he fought tue battles that made
beginnings he rose to eniineDce. Espous.
lng the aus OF the southern slaves he
became he leader OF the anti. slavery
sentiment in the nation md in 1860 he
was nominated for president by the re.
publican party. In the election that
followed, his party was successful in OBJ.
tanning the minority of tho electoral
votes.
He took the great Office amidst the
greatest political excitement this coun-
try has ever seen. A state OF msur-
recsiop existed in nearly every southern
state, that borGered on civil war. Tho
pent up fires OF political hatred soon
burst forth and the couOtry was in the
throcs OF civil war that was destined to
'lrFnch the land in Blood and cost mill.
ions upon n,ilione 0. treasure.
10 1864, the war was still raging and
he was again elected. Through all the
stirring times from 1861 To 1865, he
never taItered in hIs determination TO
ptrserve the Union. Though the outlook
Mt times would has discouraged men Of
less stronger mould, he kept HE ego
steadily on the preservation OF the gov.
ernment. lIe lived To eco this accom-
plisLcd, but fell by the assassin'a bull
let while his country men were rejoicing
0vot the surrender Of the southern
armies TO the victorious armies Of the
Union.
To-Day his memor! lie loved and revered
everywhere. Born anil scenes Of
poverty; deprived Of all educational
advantages; home!y md ungainly in his
personal appearances; he Overcame every
obstacle and wrote his name in rndell
IDLE characters upon tie pages Of the.

rHE rnILIPPINE rAnIFF.

Senator Lodge is quoted rs saying
that the philippine hi is dead This
is Tho first admission from IL admin
istration source cbat there would be no
further effort to pass thpAjust and right.
oous bill. Senator Hale is the great
obstacle.
There have been few incidents in our
history more discreditable than this.
The Filipinns have only asked a fair
chance to ira 10 with us. We know per-
fectly well that their prosperity and vel
fare-nay. their very salvGtion-depeud
on their ability to sell their products
Secretary Taft has told US THE. The
Philippine government has alwaye urged
n lowering OF our taxes on Philippine
trade. The Filipinos the mselyes have
appealed over and over again to orr
sense OF justice. Tho people of the
United States as a whole favor The
abolition OF these duties. All who lave
studied the situation at first hPnd take
this view. Yet Hale. OF Maine objects,
and so nothing can be done.
We have taken an exalted stand ia TO-
gard to the Philippines. Our patriots
have told US that we ought to keep the
islands, not because it was good for US.
but in the interest OF the helpless island
ers. 1t vas our duty to give them good
government, to develop their industrial
aid commercial life, to make them self
annnXPiinn m faunh fl,a m hnuy tn pn pnrn
themselves, and to give them the bless.
ing OF American prosperity. To
abandon the islands would, We were told
be to abandon n helpless people to
whom we stood in the relation of guar.
dian. We were going to stake up the
white mans burden" We we're gong
to make sacrifices for the Filipinos-
never TO think OF compelling them to
make sacrifices Tor US. There was to he
no exploitation. What foe and beauti-
full talk Of this sort we have listened to!
1t almost converted the anti imrarialists.
Well, the record II made. We are
going to govern tina Philippines in the
interest o; our trude-and worSe than
that, in tine interest OF the tobacco and
sugar trusts. Not only that, but with a
cruelty OF which We should not have be.
Geved our government capable. we have
imposed an additional tax OF 100 per
cent. over and above the high duties
already in force on cheap cotton9 enter
ing the islands. This was done go
quietly md secretly, and for such false
reasons. that no ono III this country
knew anything about II till Bishop
Brent, Of the Philippines, told us about
1t. We know ell about it now, and yet
no one, from the president down. has
made any effort at reparatioD.
But the Philippine bill IL dead for the
present. The trusts have triumphed.
Tho F%ilipinoes appeal to us for justice
in vain. The American people want to
do the right, the Just, the honorable
thing, but they find themselves helpless.
Ii is not n question Of what they want,
but OF what the tobacco trust and sugar
trust will permit. We are ntng
the Philippines not for the F~ilipinoes
but for tho benefit Of two greedy
