That Court

It seems the ghost of this sulphurious Banco will not down.
 The genius of deluslon still haunts a few hungry real estate sharks and high grade manipulators in Bisbee who want to buy flying machines later on at the expense of the taxpayers.
 Now. they have the subli- mated and illimitable nerve to ask the legislative assembly of Arizona to pass an act for the special benefit of the city with two streets which semi annually becomes the scene of torrential devastation, with houses in tiers one above an other so that when a con tiagratiOn breaks forth, the upward current ofexpandine air carries flame from one tC |. the other without the agency of wind, while no provision for such emergencies has. beer made

 Salos vas brought to the hospital here in the hope that treatment might restore his reason, but instead he has been growing worse and it was found necessary to send him to the asylum.

Every citizen of Falls City and
vicinity will soon be confronted
with an opportunity to either
kR0ck or 600St.
There is a move under way
whereby with the proper effort
on the part of the boosters they
can land a glove and mitten fac
tory here. The chronic knock
ers can do their part by keeping
still.
There's a gentleman from Mel
son, Neb., figuring with the Com
mercial Club, and we understand
shat all he asks on the part OF
the Club Is the cooperation
along the line of labor. If they
can contract enough employees
the gentleman from Nelson will
do the rest.
Come on now! Get busy, It's
not necessary to point out the
why's or wherefores. That it
would be a good thing for Falls
City goes without saying.

LINCOLN

Worthily have the American
people Joined in an appropriate
celebration of the Lincoln GEN.
tenary, and extended it to the
remotest corners of the land.
1t is the one hundredth ami
versary of the birth of Abraham
Lincoln. This date is observed
with solemn and yet grateful
ceremony by the whole Ameri-
can people, who owe more to
Lincoln than to any other citi-
zen of the republic, save only
Washington.
Lincoln is, after Washington,
the greatest figure in our ma
tional history. No other man
performed services so great as
his, or was SO high a character.
His conduct during the trying
days of the civil war, when the
union that had been founded
with high hopes for human H.
berty seemed destined to be de
stroyed, was such as to appear
inspired by a power greater than
human, and many an American
has thanked God IN his nightly
prayers that so wise, gentle,
forbearing a leader had been
raised mp by divine direction to
guide the country to safety. His
death was a great calamity, not
less to the south than to the
north; tor, if Lincoln had been
spared, his qualities of heart
and mind would have made the
task of reconstruction mu c h
easier than it proved and would
The Falls City tribune., 1909-02-12

have healed the wounds of war
much sooner.
The south will Join with the
north in observing Llncoln's one
hundredtb birthday, for now, IN
these latter days his memory is
as deeply beloved south of Ma.
son and Dixon's line as north Of
it. The celebration IS worthy
to be remembered As IN express
sion Of the gratitude and a6ec.
ton OF Il great people
When We once resolve 10 lay
aside desire to make OF Lincoln's
life and words an arsenal from
which 10 draw weapons with
which to fghtfor special causes,
and consider With quiet thought
Abraham Lincoln as all Ameri-
cans know he was, We find the
materials ample.
We see Abraham Lincoln a. a
homely, kindly. patient man,
who loved his country as men
love their mothers. We see him
seeking the welfare Of all that
mothers sons because he was
one of them. We see him work.
ing humbly and patiently under
burdens such as no American
before, save Washington, and
none since, has been called upon
to bear.
We see him always charitable,
realizing that in this human
world men are moved by all sorts
of motives, and appealing to all
motives that in honesty and
honor he could, asking only that
the results of the appeals be acts
helping TO save and restore to
peace the nation mother.
And so Abraham Lincoln
wrought with the tools at hand,
never complaining of their hu-
man imperfections, using to his
great end not only the noblest
aspirations of the best but every
force of human desire, and thus
delivering a race from bondage
and saving a nation because he
ever wrought with malice to
ward none and with charity tor
all"
