university, the question at once arose
as to the necessary funds. The situa-
ton was placed before Mr. Thomas E.
Birmingham of this city With large
ness of view he at once appreciated
the fortunate opportunity which had
come to him to serve the university
and the state, and gladly agreed to
furnish the required funds.

facing the east.
1t will be remembered that a lad
Ernest, created by Hawthornes imag-
ination, growing up in a village set in
a broad and deep valley, had his at
tention called by his mother to the
noble lineaments of a Great Stone
Face on mighty buttress of one of
the surrounding mountains. Among
the people there was a tradition that
some time native of the valley
would appear with a face like the gi-
gantic one in stone. The growing boy
continued his life among the villagers,
and each day he looked out upon the
Great Stone Face and hoped that he
might sometime see tn eman who was
its image. The boy reached manhood
and middle age, doing the work of a
villager, and lending a hand to his
neighbors. Gradually he became a
source of strength to the people with
whom he was in contact, and very
slowly as age grew upon him, his
fame extended far beyond his native
valley. Several times celebrated
man born in the valley came from the
outer world to visit the village. Each
time Ernest looked eagerly forward
to his coming, hoping that he would
resemble the Great Stone Face. Each

time when the noted man appeared.
Ernest was profoundly disappointed
but still hoped that before he died he
would see in a man the likeness of
the stone face One evening, while
addressing the villagers, as had be-
come his habit a poet visitor had the
vision to see the truth, and cried:
Behold, behold, Ernest is himself the
likeness of the Great Stone Facet"
During his many years of deep re-
Election upon the inner meaning of
things and of faithful service to his
fellows, his features had become the
counterpart of his ideal
1t can not be doubted that the
bronze face of Lincoln will modify the
spiritual faces of the students of the
university who are to view daily the
calm, sagacious, determined, and
rugged face of our great president
of the civil war. What this Lincoln
statue will do in the way of develop
ing nobility of character and sustained
courage to carry forward the fight
for the advancement of the people of
this country. no one may fOretell; but
that it will be perpetually one of the
great and high educational forces of
the university no man may doubt
From it, during the centuries to come,
many hundreds of thousands of stu
dents will gain at least a reflection
of the spirit of service to their country
that animated Abraham Lincoln. They
will persist to the end in the great
fight for right and equal justice to
all, even as did this man of sorrow.
This spirit will pass in some measure
to the millions with whom they come
in contact. and gradually the widening
influence for good of the Lincoln
statue will extend throughout the
world.

PRESIDENT OF 4
UNITED NATION
so DECLARES JUDGE TAFT AT
CREOLE BANQUET IN NEW
ORLEANS.
GOV. SANDERS APPEALS FOR
PROTECTION FOR RICE AND
SUGAR INTERESTS.

New Orleans La Feb. 13.-Presi-
tive atmosphere of New Orleans hos
pitality yesterday and last night.
His morning was devoted to the ne
gro race, his afternoon to leisure
and recreation, with the tension OF
entertainment as light as possible.
The entertainment feature last
night was a creole banquet, where
speeches were made by Judge Taft
and others and an invocation pro-
nounced by Cardinal Gibbons
Taft responded in the spirit of the
occasion. He talked of his desire
as chief executive to represent the
entire nation, of his intention to
make the representatives of the adj
ministration in the south represent
the best element of the communities
in which they lived; of his recent
visit to the isthmus of Panama, with
a repetition of his hope for the COM
pletion of the canal within his adj
ministration.
More than a half thousand citizens
sat at the banquet tables, and en-
thusiasm prevailed.
Governor J. Y Sanders, responding
to the toast Louisiana" after ex-
tending hearty welcome to Taft,
spoke in favor of the federal govern
ment assuming the maintenance of
the levee system of the Mississippi
river and some of its tributaries He
also took UP the possibility of mimi
cal legislation to the rice and sugar
interests of the south, and appealed
to the president-slect for the protec
tion of the interests involved.
Gibbons Admires Taft.
Cardinal Gibbons made a brief
speech in which he said he had
known Taft for several years and the
more he has known him the better
he has learned to admire and esteem
him. Continuing, he said:
"The people of the United States
have chosen for president a man
whose devotion to his country is not
restricted by state lines or by sec
tional bias, but who loves his fellow
citizens, whether they come from the
east or west, north or south, who
will be president of the whole nation,
who will administer the affairs of his
country with even-handed and Impair
tial justice.
When your honored guest was in
Georgia. few weeks ago, he won
the hearts of the people there, and
he informed them that he hoped
they would give him their affections
for 1854 days in the year, and vote for
whom they pleased on the 365th day.
Judging from the enthusiasm OF
the residents of Crescent City, | he
lieve they will bestow their affections
on the president-elect for 1854 days.
and on the remaining day they would
give him their suffrage. and in 80 do
ing, they might travel farther and

ence, gathered yesterday in the uni
versity gymnasium to honor the name
of Abraham Lincoln, President
Charles R. Van IIise announced The
gift to the university and to the peo-
pie of Wisconsin by T. E. Britting

The Announcement.
Through the cooperation of the
United States and the state of Ken
lucky, a heroic bronze statue of Abra-
ham Lincoln is to be unveiled at his
birth place, Hodgenville, KY, on Dec
Grafton day of this year. This statue
is by Mr. Adolph A. Weinman, pupil
of st. Gaudens. Photographs of the
statue show that this sculptor is
man of the first rank; that he has
truly caught the spirit of his great
master. Requests for replicas have
come to the commission that has the
Lincoln statue in charge from Provi-
dence, Rhode Island; Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania; Champaign, Illinois;
ST. Louis, Missouri; Lincoln, Neb.;
Seattle, Wash, and from Mr.. Hicks,
United States ambassador to Chile,
who desired to present this replica to
the city of Oshkosh.
After much discussion, the commits
sioners voted to permit one full sized
replica of the statue to be cast, pro-
vided it was placed at the University
of Wisconsin. This decision came in
consequence of the great interest in
the university of Richard Lloyd Jones,
one of the commissioners, associate
editor of Golfers weekly. an alumnus
of the university, and son of the
speaker of today. the Rev. Jenkin
Lloyd Jones' When the chance came

new political party has been formed

ers are the former premier Michel

events of 1905 changed the align
ment of political ideas, removing the
question of union with Sweden that
formerly separated the parties of the
right and the left. The result is that
many former members of the party
of the left really agree with the right
ON all vital questions, but as they do
not like the name they have formed
a new party to work with the right
