In response to a request by the
Lincoln Farm Association, Mayor
H. S. Peterson has appointed the
undersigned as a committee to
solicit funds for the said associa-
tion. The committee has decided
that in order that these contribu-
tions may be purely voluntary, no
personal solicitations will be made,
but that the purposes of the move
ment be publicly explained and
places provided where people who
so desire may leave their contribu.
tions.
In August. 1905, the Birthplace
farm of Abraham Lincoln, consist
ing Of 10 acres located about Sc
miles from Louisville, Kentucky,
was put up at pubic auction to be
sold for unpaid taxes. 1t is a fact
that all but one of the bidders who
appeared represented some business
concern or speculator, endeavoring
to get possession of the historic
place to exploit it for private gain.
Their shameful purpose was defeat
ed by one bidder who represented
private citizen acting thru mo-
tives of simple patriotism. He
conceived the idea of developing
the farm into a Lincoln National
Park, which should stand forever as
a fitting memorial to Lincoln's high
service-a memorial worthy of the
man and worthy of the American
people.
The views of the President. men,
bers Of the Cabinet, Congressman.
Governors of states, and men
prominent in every walk of life
were secured, and acting on the
general suggestion an Association
was formed and in June, 1906, in
corporated as The Lincoln Farm As

should be to secure the necessary
funds to develop the Park, erect a
Memorial Building to shelter the
Cabin, and to provide for their fu-
ture care as priceless heritage of

CHlLDREN'S HOME 50.
CIETY UNDER CLOUD

management of the Children's Home
Society of Minnesota are contained
in circular issued few days ago
by Rev. A. H. Tebbets. for eight
years manager Of the society's home
in St. Anthony Park. Rev. Teb-
bets is we'll known in Willmar,
, where he has always found large
number of liberal contributors to-
wards the work of the society.
Averring that he severed his con-
nection with the society because he
could not conduct work (which
was inconsistent with its profession
of being a Christian institution, -
Mr.. Tebbets makes many startling
statements regarding the inside
workings of the society. Some of
them read as follows:
For years so per cent or more OF
the reported receipts have gone un-
der the item of salaries and ex-
penses" not including in that any
outlay for the children in the home
or for help there employed. For
years Mr.. Savage has received
$1,000 and Mrs. Savage $500 as sala.
ries, all expenses, including street
car and railroad fares, four tele.
Ephones and postage. The matror
in charge Of the children. who has
received but meager salary, sup.
plements the small means allowed
her from her own purse that the
children might not suffer. During
all these years children have beer
taken with few questions and little
ceremony and with almost no effort
to bring wrongdoers to justice O,
secure from them the care of Their
offspring.
These diseased, fatherless babie.
have been placed in respectable
homes and adopted by foster par
tents who were ignorant of the risl
to life and contagion that these dis
eases entailed tho for the time tn,
disease was seemingly cured
Scores of children have been place.
in families without adoption, in
denture or contract, who. tho nom
inally under the society's care, hav,
been wholly lost sight of.
While railroads have given passe
freely for the society's employees
Tor taking the children to and fro
these passes have been used fol
other purposes and obtained fol
persons not employed by the so
ciety.
Tho professedly Christian insti
tuition yet for more than a dozel
years no child dying in the hom'
received Christian burial.
In January the Twin City Investi
eating Bureau issued report il
which was stated that unless som'
present employees of the home ar,
dismissed and some salaries of 9th
er employees reduced, contribution
to this institution should be givel
with much hesitation.
Shortly after Mr.. Tebbets resig
nation and following the publica
tion of his charges. MIR. Savage wa
removed as superintendent of tn,
home by the board of managers
or1 g w n;nlxonoon o,,v,or;n<orl

was appointed in his place. Th.
board of managers, tho admitting
some of the charges made by Rev
Tebbets are true, insists that the,
are greatly exaggerated, and tha
some of the evils mentioned have
already been corrected. A speed,
correction of other things criticised
is promised.

The campaign against the white
plague is commanding attention to
remarkable extent. Where former
ly there was apathy, neglect and
often despair, to-day there is educa-
ton and hope-the belief is gain
ing ground everywhere that the
death rate from tuberculosis can be
cut down materially in the near
future and time will come when
consumption will be an uncommon
disease. A German association has
for its motto, After 1880 No Tu-
berculosis." They may be overcon-
tident and sanguine but it certainly
reveals sublime and admirable
faith in the power of organized pub
lie combat.
Science has lined out the work
that will have to be done. The
plans and methods to be followed
are quite clear and definite. We
know to-day the conditions under
which consumption is preventable
and durable. The one great nee
essary thing now is for us to use
and apply the knowledge we have.
The purpose of the state associ-
alton is to spread this knowledge
among the people and get wider
and more effective organization for
carrying out its plans. Educati on
of the public is going on at faster
rate than eyer before. Several of
the popular national magazines this
month have articles bearing direc+.

The Congress just assembled
will begin the consideration of
President Taft's policies, already
somewhat familiar to the public
through the Presidents recent
speeches and those of his ATTORNEY
General. 1t is laborious program
which will keep not only this ses-
sion busy but probably several sue
ceeding sessions. Although it will
require time and persuasion to Sc
cure the enactment of the measures
which Mr.. Taft desires, perhaps no
President ever had more favorable
prospect of success in a Legislative
policy. Conditions have changed
in recent years SO as to increase the
influence of the Executive in legis-
lation. The public has begun to
look upon the administration more
than upon Congress for the origin
alton of national policies and Con-
gress has in great extent acqui-
esced. The legislative machine in
both houses is weaker than it used
to be. Insurgencies have damaged
its prestige. It's independence and
self-confdence are largely gone and
it is being driven more and more to
regard public opinion, to show def
erence TO persons and measures
which appear to have popular sup
port, and to seek agreements which
have public approval. President
Taft will undoubtedly recognize
this fact and insist upon the legis-
lation that the public demands.

Price Of Hereditary Evil

A professor in the university at
Berne, Germany, has made an ex-
tensive study of the subject of he
redity, and as a result of his re-
search has evolved some startling
statistics. He has traced the his
tory of a family which gives strik-
ing testimony to the force of hered-
ity. At the close of the eighteenth
century woman died who for forty
years had been "a thief, drunkard
and tramp" The savant has
found 1884 defendants of this woman
and of these he succeeded in tracing
7O7 from youth to old age. OF this
number LOG were born out of we'd
lock, 142 were beggars, and ga more
lived on charity. Of the women in
the number ISL lived loose lives,
and in the family there have been
rs convicts and murderers. The
professor estimates that in IS
years this family has cost the Ger
man government in almshouses, law
courts, prisons, and other institu-
tons, not less than $1,250,000. He
does not try to ascertain the loss in
spiritual endeavor, nor in social eff
ficiency, and it is doubtful if it can
be measured. His figures, however,
illustrate how quickly and surely
faint in a character spreads 10 pos
terity, and show the imperative
need which confronts modern soci-
ETY. for promptly taking effective
means to check it's growth, and if
possible, eliminate it. Though
there are some who faunt theories of
heredity, and others who believe
that capital punishment and life
sentences are unjust to criminals,
yet in the face of these facts, it is
hard to maintain that there is moth
ing in heredity, and that the state
does not take the wisest, safest and
sanest course in removing from the
commonwealth such beasts as were
recently incarcerated in Waupun
because of their atrocious connec-
ton with the lynda case in Milwau-
kee. The authorities of the Cream
City are to be commended for their
quick action in this case, and it is
matter for congratulation that the
citizens of our metropolis recog-
nized law and order in the matter,
and did not attempt mob violence
or lynch law in an endeavor to
right the wrong. Such outbreaks
as those which have occurred in
southern Illinois the past year, and
throughout the South, are as much
a crime against law and public de-
cency as the original offence, and
ought to be punished accordingly.
