the Most Perfect Ruler That Ever Lived

tion at Freeport that saved the United
States. came to know him as his mas
ter-and held his hat for him while he
took the oath OF Office as president.
whom he made-and unmade-learned
the same lesson SO did Mcclellan, the
Young Napoleon So did Seward,
who went into the cabinet prepared
and expecting to take the reins of gov
ernment. So did Chase, the "indispen-
sable man." who resigned once too
often-and. thanks to Lincoln's mag
nanimity, administered to him the sec
ond oath of office.
Even Stanton. that saturnine Titan
of the cabinet, who was in the habit OF
referring TO Lincoln as the original
gorilla" who openly prophesied that
JEFF Davis would be in the White
House within six months. who believed
himself called into the cabinet for the
express purpose OF holding up the
hands of an impotent president-even
Stanton learned his lesson. 1t took
him a long time. but he learned IL well.
When Lincoln drew his last breath
stanton said: There lies the most
perfect ruler OF Men the world has
ever seen
But II was not until the homely face
and ungainly figure of Lincoln were
gone from the sight, and his pointed
Jest was no longer heard. that the
American people began TO see Lincoln
as he was. not as we had assumed him
to be. And year by year we are COM
ing TO know him better.
We know now, among other things,
that this selfmade man from the log
cabin was truly an educated man; that
this backwoods circuit rider was not
only an honest lawyer. but a great law
yer; that this past master Of the art OF
storytelling used his art with a pur-
pose: that this crossroads debater and
political stump speaker was an orator
to whom it was given to speak words
that are immortal-words that are as
much a part of tho national heritage
as the Declaration of Independence and
the Constitution.
We know now-not some OF us, but
all of us--that this man who saved the
Shion by force Of arms and brought
peace out of the hell OF civil war did
these great things in an even greater
spirit that he wrought with malice
toward none, with charity for all.
And we know now that this man,
who was so human that he did not
seem to be great, was yet lonely soul,
set apart for great work and aware
OF his mission The time may come
when we shall forget In part his I'm
finite Jest" but never the infinite sad
ness on his deep-lined face.
Providence raised up Abraham Lin
coin And we are just beginning to
understand.

ly passed away The civil war
has been over a long time. This
is a new century Of other man
ners and new activities Yet there is
nothing remote about the name and
fame Of Lincoln He is close to us,
and growing closer. Here, as every
where, the observation OF the day in
creases year by year.
The explanation of this extraor-
binary fact is at once simple and satis-
factory. It is that the American peo-
pie never appreciated Lincoln while he
was alive. When he was taken away
from us we began to see him as he
was. We are now beginning to appre-
ciate him.
Many loved Lincoln devotedly while
he was alive. Others saw that he was
a thoroughly good man. But in general
even those who loved him and those
who trusted him utterly failed to
realize that he was as great as he was
good.
The failure of Lincoln to win the ap-
probation of those who had every
chance to Judge him seems incredible
to us now. Nevertheless, one may haz-
ard a guess as to the belittling power
OF intimacy in his case.
Never in the history of the world
was there a great man so entirely and
consistently his natural self. He was
homely and ungainly and poorly
dressed-and he knew ii, and ioked
about IL. He was entirely self-made-
and he was not proud OF the job. He
was ambitious-and frankly admitted
II. He was so modest so honest, and
so easy" that not a few thought he
must be simple-minded. He was easy
OF access. and was the same TO every
one.

To be sure. there were some who

SUGAR INDUSTRY.
Oxnard, CAL, Has Greatest Factory In
Operation In The World.
sUMsHI INE MAKES S ] CAR
Labor Has Been Serious Problem In That
Industry Of Great Value.

Michigan has erected more sugar
factories than any other state I'm the
union. Ii stauds now even with Colo
RADIO in the number of factories. hut
the latter state produces more sugar
than does Michigan. which is second
in production, California stands third.
1t was the first to start the enter
prise and it has one factory, that at
Oxard. which is the largest in the
world The industry is no longer con-
sidered as a experiment; sugar beets
are now a established crop.
There Is an excellent reason whv
Californi ia should grow sugar-suRar
is literally garnered sushine. The
beet plant will develope under great
variety of conditions as to weather.
but in order to make sugar. there must
be sunshine, and one of the greatest
assets in successful growing 1t is the
NUMBER of clear, sunshinv DAYS that
can be depended upon here. Not only
Is this true of the growing days: an
other climatic consideration is favor
able weather for harvesting and for
storing without injury where the fac
orv has limited daily capacity.
Eleven beet sugar factories have
been installed in California. of which
nine are now In operation. They are

from the sowing of the seed to the
finished product. In this. as in Cali
fornia fruit growing. it is the mixing
of brains and labor that has brought
success. and success often preceded BY
failure No variety of sugar beet is
suitable to all conditions. and ex =
periments with varieties and soils have
been reqistite. Valuable qualities, ap-
pearing by accident. haye become fix
ed by careful selection and muture,
and the finer specimens of their pro-
gehy are bred for generations of beet
life for these fine points with as much
intelligence as that exercised in the
selection and breeding of animals
The sugar beet today is the creation of
the practical scientist and one of the
best examples of plant evolution.
Like all other agricultural successes, /,
in California. this industry has run
against its own particular snags. To
begin with. il was new crop, aud
the farmers as a rule is conservative.
He is slow to abandon a crop with
which he is familiar, and SOW TO
take up new one. When a farmer
does trv beet growing for one year.
and for some reason is not a complete
success, he is liable TO think that it is
poor crop. and turn TO something
else while the same failure on the part
of we'll known crop that has been
grown wear in and year out would not
have this tendency. This has been a
discouraging obstacle to manv sugar
factories.
The question of labor in the cult
walton of these immense fields has been
a serious one 20 consider, for where
foreign countries are packed 10 starv-
tion. many localities in this new land
of plenty are but thinly settled Added
to these obstacles which are of general
interest are the special conditions that
each factory and grower has TO work
ont himself. These hindrances have
been met and ovecome and it is now
one OF the established industries OF
such magnitude and inheritance that
the machinery and processes compare
favorably with any other factories n
the world
The value of this industry 30 the
