LINCOLN CENTENARY.

\ The centenary of seven or eight of
the great men of the world will be
held this year. Among them will be
W. E. Gladstone, and Edgar Allen
Poe. But the greatest of them all
will be Abraham Lincoln.
This humble Kentuckian, born in a
log cabin, lived to guide the destinies
of this great republic in the most ter
rible civil war of all the ages.
He died with malice toward none,
with charity for ALL" And when he
died, the South which had so bitterly
fought for four long years against
the Union, felt that it had lost a
friend.
/ And as the years pass since the
Civil War, Lincoln continues to grow
In the hearts and minds of Ameri-
cans. He now takes his place with
Washington as one of the revered
figures In our history.
On February y, the Lincoln Me-
mortal Park which is now building
on the site where Lincoln was born,
will be dedicated. The eyes of the
whole world will be fixed on Ken
lucky. The President of the United
States and other great men of the
nation will journey to our Common
wealth.
The inspiration of his rise may
perhaps move some of our boys and
girls to nobler lives. The discussion
of the difficulties he overcame, will
cause some to grapple with their own.
The eNws proposes to do its part
There will appear from time to time
during the next six weeks, a series of
articles tracing step by step all the
notable features of Lincoln's career.
The first of these stories appears in
the present issue. 1t will repay our
subscribers TO read it, to call the at
tention of their children to it and to
have them read it too. For after all,
what is the greatest thing in the world
but the fact that each of us might
worthily say with Paul of Tarsus in
terpolating american" for Roman"
4 am a Roman citizen"
The News is publishing this Sc
ries of articles at considerable ex-
pense. 1t will feel amply repaid if
it aids even a few to realize the re-
sponsibiity of citizenship and gives
the desire to know more of that
matchless American, Abraham lin
coin.

able if the popular interest is to be
adequately safeguarded and wrong
doors taught to fear the law. To show
how indispensable detectives are
when important work of a confiden-
tial character must be done, l refer
to the experience of the immigration
commission appointed by congress
and largely composed of senators and
representatives, which has found it
absolutely necessary to employ detec-
tives in order to achieve the best re-
suits.
"Shadowing" of Congressman.
I'm my communication of the 4th
instant to the lower house l have set
forth at length the reasons which in
my judgment it is eminently desir-
able that in addition 70 the special
detectives or inspection service of the
department, there should be in some
one department, preferably the de-
partment of justice. a service which
can be used at need in any depart
ment in oPler to achieve the ends I
have described. l would like to state
here that very frequently accusations
have been made to me privately by
members of the two houses to the eff
feet that the secret service has been
used rs a police, of MORALS or to
Shadow senators, congressman and
other public officials. Hitherto the
effort to discover the basis for such
allegations has always been fruitless.
l should be greatly obliged if any in
formation could be furnished me
tending to show any instance where
this has been done il zines past.
Certain of the special agents, in
spectors ard the lil5. ~ several de-
partments have hi.A'y specialized
work to perform. In IA treasury de-
partment the secret Grvice is espe-
cially trained to deal with counter
feiters and the special agents with
customs frauds. In the postoffice de-
partment the corps of inspectors is
especially trained and particularly
fitted to detect criminality or abuses
or fraudulent use of the mails in con-
nection with the post service. In the
interior department the special
agents of the Office and the inspec-
tors of the Indian bureau are trained
in similar fashion to meet special
needs. In addition, it is urgently
necessary, as set forth in Mr. Roots
accompanying report, that there shall
be central force of secret service
men who can be detailed for work

DECOMPOSED BODY FOUND
Body Found Floating in Barton River
near Joslyn Farm in Coventry lden-
titled as Willie Bishop

While bathing in the Barton river
near the Fred Joslyn farm in the town
Of Coventry Friday afternoon, boys
discovered the body of man floating
on the water, but held by the clothing
being caught on some tWlgs. Jack
Brown, whose farm is also near by,
was notified and he in turn notified the
selectmen of Coventry, who in comp
any with DR.. Willard, went to the
place and found the body to be that of
a man about 40 years old and decom.
posed to such degree that Identified
tion of the features was impossible.
Death was caused by injuries Of
some kind. Several theories are ad
vanced. Some believe he was steal
ing a ride on freight and fell off,
others think he was hit by one of the
night trains while walking the track
still others believe there was foul
play. One leg was broken, there was
an injury on the head and other minor
injuries. 1t is thought the body fell
into the river a short distance above
where it was found and where there is
short trestle, and that about ten
days had elapsed since death. A
| Grand Trunk R. r. switch key was
found in his pocket, also Is cents in
money.
The body was taken in charge by
Whipple, French & Co., undertakers of
this place and brought here that same
evening and placed in the tomb. Post
cards in the pockets of the man show.

All right. But the Judge should
try TO bring about some consistency
and harmony among his Newspaper
supporters. About half OF them
have been urging people TO vote
for him on the ground that it would
be their last chance to vote TO make
u Confederate veteran governor.
Some contemporaries have been
quite fearful and almost poetic in
these appeals: and it was cruel in
the Louisa Enterprise to suggest
that when Judge Mann went
against Fitzhugh Lee be did not
give much of an example of honor
ing the Confederate veteran. But
now the Index-Appeal and other
supporters of Judge Mann say he
desires TO have his Confederate
record disregarded, except so far
as the Stuart-Pickett Camp resolu-
tions go. and that he desires cleo
