J. Sullivan. Director of the Bureau at

1909 LINCOLN 1909

The Centennial Anniversary of ths
birth of Abraham Lincoln will occur
next year, and it is now time for Grand
Army Posts, W0man's Relief Corps and
all other patriotic organizations and So
cieties, which may have been formed
having similar ends in view, to begin
preparations for the purpose of fitly ceie-
brating that important event.
Osborn H. Oldroyd, whose residenyg ia
now in the same house in which Lincoln
died at Washington. ID. c., has prepared
an appropriate service to commemorate
that occasion.
The program, containing some 20 num-
bers, consists of songs, recitations and
four articles covering the different
phases of Lincoln's life. It is 2O-page
illustrated pamphlet. printed on good
paper and in attractive style. The price
of this edition, or compilation, has been
placed at 10 cents per copy, 81 per dozen
or So per 100.- 1t seems impossible that
there can exist a single Post or Corps
that could not subscribe for and easily
dispose of at least 100 copies of this pro-
duction, and thus make a profit of an
amount equcl to purchase price, besides
serving as an educator to the people
upon the true greatness of the character
of Abraham Lincoln. Orders sent, pre-

The Woman Wins.

One lone woman, singlehanded
and in the face of determined
fight of the Republicans of her
State, won a signal victory in the
Senate last week, when that body
confirmed the nomination of Alice
M. Robertson to be Postmaster at
Muskogee, Okla.
Miss Robertson was nonfinated
four years ago, and served one
term with credit to herself and
to the satisfaction of the Depart
ment. When herierm expired
the President, a5eing on the
program laid down by Mr.. Cor
telyou when Postmaster-G General,
decided to give her a second term
as a reward for meritorious SER
vice. Her term expired Dec 8,
and her name was sent in for the
new appointment Dec. IA.
Immediately the Republicans Of
the new State set about to pro-
test, having failed to move the
President. They contended that
this first-class office should go to
some Republican leader to help
maintain the party organization
in Oklahoma. Miss Robertson's adj
istration has been excellent, and
only ground that could be adva
against her was that she was VOL
The Senate would not listen, and
month after her nomination her
pointment was confirmed. This is
only Presidential office held by a
man. 1t pays between $2,s00 and 81

Mt. Vernon Chieftin: While
many suggestions are being made
by leading Republicans for ways of
raising more revenue, such as an
import duty on coffee and tea and a
revenue stamp on checks and deeds
etc, not a one has recommended
an income tax. The benificent
laws of our country have enabled

tunes. but they do not have to
contribute any more than the ordi-
nary citizen to its support.

Inconsistent Howl.

NeOsho Times: The Republicans
argue that everything the mine
operator uses is protected by a tar
if but the product of his labor,
zinc, is free of duty and unprotect-
ed from foreign competition. This
shows the injustice OF the whole
tariff scheme. Who is responsible
for this state of affairs? Didn't the
republicans enact the present tariff
law and didn't they neglect to re-
fuse to put tariff on zinc? Let all
protective duties be abolished and
then mine operators will be on an
equality with every body else.
