THE POWER OF THE PEOPLE.

The election OF Lincoln to the pres.
idenoy WAS the manifestation of the
power of the people. The affairs Of
the nation needed u strong guiding
hand for theirs were troublous times
at hand and civil war WAS inevitable.
1t WAS war which WAS TO determine
the sovereignty Il the federal govern.
H. Seward and Abraham Lincoln WAS
one Of the most interesting which
ever took place in this country. On
the first ballot Seward received l73-1.2
electoral votes and Lincoln received
l02 On tthe second ballot Seward
received 1912 and Lincoln 1871. On
the third ballot Seward received lSO
and Lincoln 23l-l-2. This Ia an evil
dence Of how the will of the people
may be carried out by members of the
electoral college when the members
Of the electoral college shall fulfill
their high office as a delibeIative
body of men exercising An untram-
meled choice for that high office
which they have to I'LL.
When the time came for Lincoln's
second election, while it seemed that
he would be the logical head of the
government for another term of office
in order to complete the great work
he had ,7egun, he was indeed very
anxious over the results of the second
election. When chided AZ to his un-
natural anxiety as to the outcome he
said; That's all right, my friend,
butt do not forget that 1 was nomin-
ated by a convention that WAS two
thirds for the other fellow At
the end of the convention he received
the unanimous vote foI denomination

first COZ yention which nominated him
for l,is previous election. 1t is inter.
esting to know that Lincoln had made
preparation in case of defeat to CO.

but it was vetoed by every member.
1t is told by those who knew him
that this was great sorrow to him
and was something to which he never
became reconciled, though he bowed
to the wisdom of his cabinet and
signed the vetoed document and laid
1t away.
A period of reconstruction followed
which welded the common interests
of the nation into an indissolubl
bond and placed the United States
among the great nations of the world.

college now holds is but an illustra-
tion Of the mnaner in which writ

shadowed all others, even the
visit of John w Kern, the Vice
Presidential nominee.
While Mr. Gompers' support
was promised to the ticket, he
specially denied any intention
of taking the stump in the com:

currency that the labor leader
would speak for Bryan, but he
made no such announcement.
He left Fairview after fifteen
minutes interview with Mr.

The Republican Convention,
Mr. Gompers asserts, ignored the
demands of labor while the
Democrats acknowledge them
in their platform. His course,
he says, is clear and he will do
what is demanded of him in the
interest of labor as best ex-
pressed in the platform adopted
at Denver. AS the situation is

wedges of the second Dread

sole had been sawed to release
her.
When the supreme moment
came, just as there was the first
perceptible movement of the
great hull, MISS Frederick

governor of South Carolina.

over the formidable ram exten.

II christen thee South Caro-

woman said, IN a voice of un'
mistakable emotion, suggestive
of excitement, as she literally
crashed the bottle against the
PROV. Wine splashed all over
Miss Ansel's dainty lace gown
and a few drops also stained
her fathers broadcloth frock
coat. But it was a glorious
occasion for the governor and
his daughter, and they laughed
heartily about the incident
afterwards.
After the launching 1900
persons sat down to banquet
in the mold loft, a big building
in the yard. Gov. Ansel, in
responding to his toast, "South
Carolina" said:
"South Cardinals yeomanry

proud of the name and the ship,
