Lincoln and Grant in the Civil
War.

The relations of Lincoln and Grant
must be sought amid the clash, flash
and crash of elemental forces in the
most stupendous struggle of human his
tory. Only big things are seen when
the lightning is playing, the clouds
rumbling and winds roaring. And like
hugh cliffs in the storm, these two m en-
stand out as the heroic figures in the
stress and strain of this awful conflict.
Both loved peace and were essentially
simple. And so it is sad to think that
though they came from the same state,
Illinois, they never met save in the
gloom and fury of devastation. There
Is no evidence that Lincoln ever heard
OF Grant until after the battle of Bel.
mont; or that Grant ever saw Lincoln
until handed commission of CON-
handing general Of the army. Lincoln
had a public career before the war.
Grant had public career after the war
But the career of each met the career OF
the other only during the war. And the
career of each supplemented the career

tor and the other soldier. And Lin

needed Lincoln the administrator. The
relation of the men may be as clearly

FRIDAY, JUNE 9, 1911.

The HERALD, as in the past,
will be published regularly on Fri
day of each week, and will meet
as far as patronage and aid in other
ways makes possible, the need OF
a good all round country weekly
newspaper, representative of the
best thoughts of the people of
Essex County. On the outside
pages will be found the best cur
rent literature, anecdotes and
much useful information. In the
editorial columns will be given
comment upon the interesting
events of the day, this giving place
in due season to the political sub
iect matter to be looked for in a
really serviceable country news
paper. AS it has been known in
the past so it will be known in the
future as a straight Republican
newspaper-upholding always the
principles of Lincoln, Mckinley,
Roosevelt and Taft.
In the columns reserved for local
items there will be given "all the
news fit to print" provided tha
the people of the county and the
home town will still give assistance
in the telling of important doing'
in the work supporting the several
institutions, and interesting hap
penings in the home life OF thu
people, as such valuable aid is in
dispensible to success in the pre-
sentation of local news. Spac'
will be afforded, whenever possible
for the publication of letters from
the people, under the rule prevail
ing in the best newspaper office

sponsibility for the thoughts to b
presented Letters must be signe'

SOCIALISTS ARE ACTIVE
HERE IN WASHINGTON

To the Editor Of THE TINES:
/ have just read your excellent edi-
torial on THE Socialist Vote in Los
Angeles Doubtless the remarka BILE
strength of the Socialists will be a sur
prise to many non-Socialists.
Socialists, however, see in the in
creased Socialist vote the reward for
years of propaganda. Perhaps more
significant, though attracting less atten-
ton than the recent Socialist victories,
is the increase in the party membership.
From 5000 in 1901, the dues paying men,
bers have increased to 10000 in October,
1911.
Even in Washington. where the people
have no vote, the Socialists are begin
ming to get active. A monthly paper.
THE Washington Socialist" has been
started. and will eventually be made a
weekly.
The least that anybody can do is to
study this question of Socialism fairly.

her Washington engagement, and with

In fact, after seeing her at a matinee
reception one afternoon, came to the
conclusion that they love her almost
too well for her own comfort.

ception," she seid, "and we will have
a little talk" So, while she stood on
the stage and shook hands with the

AROUSED BY ARREST
FOR INTENT TO HUNT
To the Editor of THE TIMES:

To the Editor OF THE TIMES:
should like to take advantage Of the
valuable privilege you extend to The
Times readers by using your columns to
comment upon the recent arrest of the
unlucky thirteen Washingtonians at
Camp Springs. Nd. This affair was just
another example of similar outragcs
that are of common occurrence in diff
ferent sections of the country. 1t was
nothing short of systematic legal brig
andage. One could only differentiate 1t
between the illegal actions of the COM
mon highwayman by the presence of the
badge, which is often abused and used
as species of free license.
1t appears that the gentlemen in ques-
tion were en- route to attend an inyi-
tation given by a friend with full per-
elimination of which, however, was the
arrest of the entire party, and were
marched in triumph to the local store.
That there was preconcerted treach-
was apparent to any one who read the
case. The usual gun demonstration"

able Constable Lusby to terrorize the

for instance. Who would have thought
that the powers of Capitalization ever
would have thought of getting cor.
ner on it, 1t seems SO trifing that no
one but the humblest cleaners under
take to deal in it. Trifing though it
is, it plays an important part in the
comfort of mankind, for there are men
and women who seem to be congenitally
incapable of building a fire without all
the aid that ingenuity can contrive,
Just as flowers take root and thrive

And yet, "Glamis and thane of Caw-
der the greatest is behind!' The per-
centage of open hearths is rapidly di-
minishing before the onset of the radi-
ator, but the popularity of roast tur-
key shows neither variableness nor the
shadow of turning. So it is a matter
of grave concern to be told that the
cranberry crop has just fallen into
the hands of the trust. In Wisconsin,
Massachusetts,, and New Jersey, where
the cranberry bogs flourish in their
most prolific state, the visible supply
has come into the possession of a few
powerful interests, and the price has
already advanced from SIS barrel to
twice that sum. Is it not enough to
throw gloom over the merriest
Thanksgiving, and dampen the pros
poets of the happiest Christmass By
just so much will there be diminution
of the things we should be thankful
for, and by the same token the warfare
on the trusts must begin all over
again.

THE EVOLVED CAUCASIAN
AND HIS SOCIAL SYSTEM

To the Editor of THE TINES
Plutocracy is only another name and
form of despotism. Under the guise of
commercial exchange or of reciprocal
service the plutocrat exacts tribute
from his fellow men. The creation of
the plutocrat is an act OF anarchy. An
archy among Caucasians originates in
deficient or erroneous training, and
the pIutocrat and the pauper. The off,
spring of the plutocrat will have too
little stress in development while the
offspring of the pauper will nave too

The water main in front Of my prop

II more money is needed, could II not be
secured with less hardship to the whole

saloons and pool rooms, cigar stores and
moving picture shows, etc.?
Increase the taxes on the luxuries and

their creation there will also be created
murderers. white slaves. and other social
derelicts. Among these latter creatures,
and the most wretched. viii be the re-
cent descendants of wealthy ancestors.
And with these alterations the anarchy
OF our social system continues.
The plutocrat Is one in whom the in
stinct of self-preservation has been per-
verted into a passion for power, which
power the social system has permitted
him to grasp. - But he is no worse
than is the social system that creates
him. For 1t neglected to instruct him
in his duty to his race, and II neglected
to prevent him from grasping the
power. A system that thus neglects A
fundamental duty Is sure to foster
race-degrading agencies. And that is
exactly what our system does.

that inspection can take place? There
