President Abraham Lincoln.

Abraham Lincoln, VINO would De
100 years old Friday, II living, will
be remembered throughout the ma
ton tomorrow, this having been set
apart as a legal holiday. Impress
sive ceremonies will be held at his
birthplace at the same time, near
Hodgensville, KY, at which Presi-
dent Roosevelt will be present.
Whatever difference of opinion
there might have been during the
trying days of ls6l-s, Lincoln was
a good man.
Following are some Of the things
said by him;
ON LABoR.-To secure to each
labored the whele product of his
labor. or as nearly as possible, is a
worthy object Of any good govern
ment. With some men liberty means
for each man 10 do as he pleases
with himself and the product CT
his labor; with others>it means to do
as they please with other men and
the product of other mems labors.
That issue will continue in this coun-
try when my poor tongue shall be
silent. II is the eternal struggle be-
tween right and wrong. The com.
mon right of humanity and the divine
right Of kings. In. whatever shape
it develops itself IT is the same tyran-
nical spirit that says: "You toll
and work AMI earn bread and I'll eat
it,"
Labor is prior to and Independent
of capital. Capital is only the fruit
Of labor-is the superior of capital
and deserves much the higher con-
sideration. No men living are more
worthy to be trusted than those who
toll up from proverty. Let them be-
ware Of surrendering a political
power which, if surrendered, will
surely be used to close the door
OF advancement against such as
they, and to fix new disabilities and
burdens upon them, till all Of liberty
shall belost.
The strongest bond of human
sympathy, outside of the family re-
lation, should be one uniting all
working people, Of all nations and
tongues and kindred. Nor should
this lead to a warfare upon property
or the owners of property.
Let not him who is houseless pull
down the house OF another but let
him work diligently and build one
for himself.
There is no grievance that is a fit
object of redress by the mob law.
Among free men there can be no
appeal from the ballot to the bullet
and they who take such appeal are
sure to lose their case and pay the
costs.
ON GovERNMENT.-Our Govern
ment rests in public opinion. What
ever can change public opinion can
change the Government practically
just so much. Public opinion on
any subject always has a central
idea" That central idea in poll
teal public opinion at the beginning
was "the equality of men," And
constant working has been steady
progress toward practical equality
of all men.
The one great living principle of
all democratic governments is that
the representative is bound to carry
out the known will Of his constitu-
ents.
The people are the rightful mas
tiers Of both Congress and the courts
not to overthrow the Constitution,
but to overthrow the men who pre-
vent it.
A free people in times of peace
and quiet, when pressed by no COM
mon danger, naturally divide into
parties. At such times the man
who is for neither party is not, cannot
be, Of any consequence.
Legislation and adjudication must
follow and conform to the progress

PRESIDENT IS
MUCH WORRIED
FEARS CALIFORNIA AGITATION
WILL AFFECT NEGOTIATIONS
WITH JAPAN.
NEVADA ADDS TROUBLE
GREAT SHIPPING CORPORATIONS
COME IN FOR BLAME IN
THE NATTER.

Washington.-No single question,
nor group of questions, is absorbing
the interest and concern of the admin
istration at this moment to the same
extent as certain Of the phases of the
anti-Japanese agitation in California.
The President has been in commune
cation with many reputable persons
who should be thoroughly informed as
to the conditions on the Pacific coast.
The following views of the situation
are from a semi-official source and are
said to represent fairly we'll the views
of the President:
1t is admitted that systematic agi-
tation is in progress on the coast, but
a significant feature Of its lack OF
strength is the fact that the labor lead
ers have taken no prominent part in
ii.
1t even has been stated to the admin
istration that the real handspring of
the agitation is to be found in some of
the great corporations that found their
profitable business OF coolie transpor-
tation threatened with destruction by
the success of the administration to
stop this class of immigration. For
the fact is, in the opinion of the ad-
miniStration, that the negotiations
with Japan for a practically complete
closure of American ports to the entry
of Japanese laborers are certainly jeo,
pardized by the extreme utterances OF
certain persons in California and by
the mere consideration of such resolu-
tions as were entertained yesterday
by the Nevada Legislature. Even
agreements already reached which
are being carried out in perfect good
faith on the part of the Japanese gov
eminent, are regarded as endangered,
in the sense that the present agitation
might very naturally tend to abate the
interest of the Japanese officials in
the execution of their obligations
in view of the unfriendly attitude as
sumed by some elements on the Pa
cific coast.
1t is these considerations that have
influenced the President in concluding
that everything possible should be
done to prevent legislation by any
state that would discriminate against
the Japanese as a class apart from
other foreign elements entering Amer
lea
There is no objection whatever by
the administration to the laws prohib-
iting all aliens from holding land in
America. For this is now, under the
revised statutes. the law in the Dis
trict of Columbia and the territories
and some of the states. Indeed, there
is a similar law in Japan and the gov
eminent of that country consequently
could not regard it as anti-Japanese
legislation if adopted in California.
The President has entire confidence
in the people of the Pacific coast and
is certain they will do right in this
matter.

Mason.VanderWeide Case.

Washington-The Supreme Court
Monday advanced the case of the
United States, plaintiff in error. versus
William r. Mason and Joseph Wander
weide from the district of Colorado,
and set March l as the date for hear
ing arguments.
The defendants were indicted in the
United States court for the district of
Colorado, at the November, 1907, term
for violation of the United States stat
utes by making an assault with attempt
to kill Joseph A. Walker, in pursuance
of which Walker was shot and killed
by Vanderweide, Mason being accused
of abbetting and aiding in the killing.
The pleas of the defendants that they
had been tried in the state courts on
the charge of murder growing out of
the same transaction were sustained by
the District Court, the indictments
quashed and the defendants dis
charged.
From this judgment the government
has taken an appeal to the Supreme
Court of the United States and as cases
of this kind are given precedence over
all other cases the court has advanced
it on the docket.
