Lincoln the Man of the Peonle.

Lincoln the Man of the People.
Some of Edwin Markham's lines
on Lincoln are appended:
A man that matched the mountains
and compelled
The stars to look our way and honor
us, was in him
The tang and odor Of the primal
things,
The rectitude and patience of the
rocks,
The gladness of the wind that shakes
the corn,
The courage Of the bird that dares
the sea,
The Justice of the rain that loves all
leaves,
The loving Kindness of the waysIde
well,
The tolerance Of equity of light,
That gives as freely to the shrinking
weed
AS to the great oak flaring to the
sky.
And so he came
From prairie cabin up to Capitol
One fair ideal led our chieftain on.
For evermore he burned to do his
deed
With the fine stroke and gesture Of
a king.
He built the rail pile as he built the
state,
Pouring his splendid strength
through every blow,
The conscience of him testing every
stroke,
To make his deed the measure of a.
man.
So came the captain of the mighty
heart,
And when the step of earthquake
shook the house,
Wrenching the rafters from their
ancient hold,
He held the ridgepole up and spiked
again
The rafters of the house. He held
his place
Held the long purpose like a grow
ing tree
Held on through blame and faltered
not at praise.

UNITED Press Leased wIre.J


Portland Ore, July 26.-"Field-
er" Jones, ex-leader of the White
Sox, now a staid business man in
the lumber business in Portland, to-
day refused to either affirm or deny
the report emanating from Chicago
that Jones is slated as the next man
ager of the Cleveland Maps.
II am through with baseball, I"
smiled the once was and can be
again, when told of the report. His
smile was significant. The report
did not seem to surprise him.
According to the report reaching
here from the East Cleveland fans
have been lifted to the seventh hea-
ven of delight because they really
believe that Jones is going to be the
next manager of the team.
1t is reported there that a deal IS
pending whereby one of the owners
will Netire and that Jones will be al
lowed to take a part ownership.
For two or three weeks, it is said,
President Ban Johnson of the Amer
lean league has been holding consul
tations with owners of the Cleveland
club. 1t is known that Johnson has
intimated broadly that something
worth while would be announced.

The Spelling Question.

There is a prevalent conviction,
whether justified by the facts or not,
that the school children of today are
not so, thoroughly trained in spelling
as were the pupils of generation or
two ago.
A school superintendent of a coun-
ty in Pennsylvania has planned for a
series of spelling bees to be held
throughout the country, , and has
prepared a book of 500 practical
everyday words Prizes will be
awarded to the winners in the con-
tests.
English spelling is arbitrary and
difficult. 1t is too bad that so much
effort and time should be necessary
to teach a child merely to spell the
words of his native tongue, and there
is a good deal to be said for simpli-
fled spelling But that reform is in
evitably sure to be long in coming,
and in the meantime there is moth
ing which gives one a more disagree
able sensation of disappointment
than to find misspelled words in an
otherwise well written letter.
1t implies ignorance and 1t is diff
ficult to believe that the writer of
misspelled letter is better equipped
in other departments Of knowledge.

REACTION IN STOCK
MARKET is FELT

NEW YORK, Aug. 2S.-The last week
in the stock market was conspicuous
chiefly for its tendency toward further
reaction. a marked stiffening in the
monetary situation and another rapid
succession of political events. Price
changes were mainly downward.
Local money conditions reflected the
coming outflow of cash to the agricul-
tural districts, where harvesting prep
arations already are well under way.
Protestations that the west and south
west will be able to finance their crop
movements continued, but were accept
ed with some reservation.
The increasing firmness of foreign
exchange was direct response to the
hardening of discounts in London,
where the private rate of discount was
at times above the bank rate. The Bank
of England made no change in its min
imum rate. although an advance Is
looked for early in the coming month.
Some idea of the extent of the in
creased demand for funds in the British
metropolis may be gathered from the
fact that bank clearances at that cen
ter last week were larger by f17,0O0,OO0
than the same week last year.
Regarding home politics, it may be
said that developments of the week
were not Of the character 10 inspire
confidence in the stability of prices or
Improvement in the general conditions
The purpose of the federal administra-
ton to revise the tariff piecemeal was
not well received in the financial dis
trict.
Another discouraging feature of the
week was the setback received by the
bond market There has been some
promise of a moderate investment. but
this was dispeled when it became
known that bonds of certain issues fell
so far below their subscription prices
as to awaken a feeling of distrust.
