general interest in congress than there Is
today. President Lincoln was freely criti-
cised; he had bitter opponents In congress,
as he had outside; but there were others
who. with a great majority of the people,
places implicit faith in him and felt GER
tain that he would carry the country
through the awful crises and eventually
save the union. This was especially true
amongst those who knew him best. With
the war dragging its bloody trail the en-
tire length of his administration, the
national credit poor, taxes mounting
upward, problems innumerable only to be
solved by congress-, 1t can be readily seen
thai 1t was exceedingly important that the
president should know Intimately and Judge
correctly the men whose support he must
seek In nearly every project he was called
upon to undertake.. Lincoln knew his men.
There was never a president Of the United
States who could so we'll and so correctly
judge men as Abraham Lincoln, and he
was seldom. IL ever, mistaken in his judg-
ment.
l called upon him at the White house a
few months before he was assassinated and
a short time after my election as a member
of the house of representatives. had
been visiting in Washington and spent con-
siderable time around congress, talking with
members and senator's, and 1t seemed to
me that scarcely any Of the strong men
were In favor of the president. was
greatly impressed and concerned on account
of the number OF adverse criticisms l had
heard. Before leaving Washington l called
upon the president, and asked him: Mr..
Lincoln, do you allow anybody to talk to
you about yourself" He said. Certainly
sit down." l told him 1 wanted to talk
with him q little about what 1 had seen and
heard around congress since coming here
and said 1t seemed to me that most of the
strong men were against him.. He replied
with q smile, 1T is not quite so bad as
that" and with that he took up a copy OF
the congressional directory. with the re-
mark that there were many congressmer
on his side. and turning to the list Of
senators and representatives he went ovel

name was marked, and as he went dowr

happiness. The man who has tasted pate
de froi gras commonly has a calloused
palate which really tastes nothing at all
that Is normal. The blase man never has
any real fun. These months and years OF
bitter hard work which Lincoln's example
bids you do will make your daily pleasure,
because they make for your daily health.
Only the normal man has that true sense
of proportion in which the sunshine of
humor abounds.
But keep everlastingly at IL" is not the
only thing that Lincoln's life teaches you
young men. If that were all II taught 1t
would do very little. 1t is said that there
are burglars who are as steadily indus
trious, and all OF us know Of eminent but
far from admirable directors Of great af-
fairs who work to the limit OF strength and
the point of exhaustion utterly unguided
by conscience OF by anything except intel
lect and selfishness.
Splendid Drama OF Honor.
Lincoln's lite is a splendid drama OF
honor. IL you get the Lincoln spirit into
your blood you could far more easily COM
init suicide than do a dishonorable thing
yes, even a mean thing. From the point
of view of the incest points of delicate
honor Lincoln's life is finer than that OF
Washington, who in many other respects
was a greater man than Lincoln. Perhaps
of our pre-eminent and typically American
public characters only Seward Is the equal
OF Lincoln in his exquisite sense of not
only large phases. but also the smallest
details of honor. As a practical asset 1t Is
hard to make you realize how far this goes.
By being crafty another man will beat you
in this trade in business or that turn In
politics, but his very successes are the
grave diggers of his ultimate and perma-
nent victory. For do you not see that by a
steady and undertaking adherence to the
commands of your conscience you build up
a public opinion regarding yourself which
is more valuable to you, even in a prac-
teal way, than gold in your Golfer or the
reins of present power in your hands?
1t was Lincoln's idea that conscience can
be cultivated and l think he was pro-
foundry right in that. We all start with
some degree of conscience, some of us with
a great deal less than others, but by neg
lecting this, that and the other to us in

Fourth. The secretary and the CORES
ponding secretary are authorized to use
such methods as they may deem expedient
for raising the funds and promoting the
success of the association.
Fifth. The officers Of the association are
hereby authorized to expend a sum not to
exceed 10 per cent Of the amount Of the
contributions for the promotion Of this en-
terprise. No salaries are to be paid to the
officers and no money expended except for
plans and specifications, postage, station
cry, printing, stenographic work. necessary
clerk hire and commissions for raising
funds when necessary.
Sixth. The raising of this fund is in no
sense to be considered a partisan or local
undertaking, but shall be state wide in it's
soliciting and all are asked to contribute
regardless of political or religious affilia-
tipn, age, color or sex. The officers of this
association are to be succeeded as their
successors to the various state offices are
elected.
Seventh. Pledges may be made to this
fund payable at the call OF the treasurer.
Blanks will be provided for the purpose.
1t is desired that all contributions be made
not later than February IL, 1903.
Eighth. II Tor any reason the money
subscribed and paid cannot be used for tho
above purpose on or before July 4, 1910, the
same shall be refunded (unless otherwise
agreedO, less 10 per cent of the amount which
may be used for necessary expenses as
provided for in section five.
So far the response of the public has
been very generous, but It was thought by
the Officers of the association that the
public treasury should be drawn upon 70

OF Holt county has introduced a bill In the
house appropriating $500 for the erection
OF the monument, which added 10 the
$4,000 which will re raised by the efforts
OF the association, will make $3.50 900 for
the work. However a prominent Lincoln
lawyer had agreed to raise SIS. 600 provided
the state appropriated SIS 900 which would
buy for Nebraska the finest Lincoln monu-

There are few Of us who can break a new

that some fellow human being has actually

informed that until President Baldwin
arrived there was no one in Chicago

Decline to End Strike.
When the contractors and union Of
fcials met the former suggested that
work be resumed and that when Mr.
Baldwin arrived something definite
would be done. The union officials de-
clined to do this, but promised to take
the matter up last night at a meeting
of the Building Trades Council.
The council voted that the strike on
all buildings should be maintained I'M
til the Otis company agreed TO employ
union elevator constructors.
At the conference between the con-
tractors and union officials it was said
that the amount of the contracts Of
the Otis company on all the strike
bound buildings was not 5 per cent of
the cost OF the structures.
Contractors repres ented at the meet
ing were: Wells Bros, Lanquist & Ills

The union officials agreed not to call
any more strikes unless an attempt was
made to put strikebreakers to work on
other structures. These would Include
