President Lincoln's
Widow Asked House
For a Yearly Income

WaSnlQGLOn, Dec. Tine a81tatt0f

the eX-presidents of the United States
and their widows, and the publication
Of a letter written by Mrs. Abraham
Lincoln. today brought out the fac,
that another letter written by Mrs
Lincoln, was recently discovered and
Is now in the possession of the library
of congress.
This second letter of Mrs. Lincoln
was written from Frankfort, Ger
many, in 1869, four years after the as.
s%assination of her husband, and five
years later than the letter Of Mrs
Lincoln, which Andrew. Carnegie
made public yesterday.
That letter spoke of the meager sal
airy which President Lincoln was re-
ceiving in 1864. but the second letter
is a direct appeal to congress for q
cial means did not enable her to fol-
low the advice of physicians, or to live
In q style becoming a widow of a chief
magistrate of a nation. In her first
letter Mrs. Lincoln said:
The presidents salary is 10000 9
year in gold. taxed 5000. With such
an esta blishment to keep up you may
imagine we have not enriched"
In the second letter which has been
just discovered Mrs. Lincoln writes:
TO the Honorable Speaker of the
House of Representatives:
Il herewith most respectfully pre-
sent to the honorable house of repre-
sentatives an application for a pen
sion. / am q widow Of a president of

sad calamity has very greatly IMPAIR
ed my health, and by the advice of
my physician I have come over to
Germany to try the mineral waters
and during the winter to go to Italy.
But my financial means do not permit
me to take advantage Of the urgent
advice given me. nor can I live In a
style becoming a widow Of a chief
magistrate Of a nation, although I live
as economically as I possibly can.
I'm consideration Of the great serv-
ices my dearly beloved husband has
rendered to the United States and Of
the fearful loss / have sustained by
his untimely death-his martyrdom, I
may say respectfully submit to
honorable body this petition,
hoping that a yearly pension may be
me, 30 that I may have less
care.
II remain, most respectfully,
-"Mfs. A. Lincoln.
frankfort. Germany. JAM, 1862"
This letter was discovered in
March, 1910. among the many valua-
BILE historical documents in the attic Of
the capitol among the records of the
house committee on accounts. As
soon as the discovery of these letters,
one of which was written by Martha
Washington. was announced by Rep
resentative Joseph F. O'Connell Of
Massachusetts,. a member of the ac-
committee. the house of repre-
sentatives lost 10 time in adopting q
giving the library Of con.
gress possession of the letter from
Mrs. Lincoln.
Mrs. Lincoln did not receive the
grant of a pension from congress un-
lille more than a ear after this letter
written. Congress gave Mrs.
lincoln $4,000 a year by a special act
On July IA. 1870. 1t was Increased by
IN act passed on Feb. 2. 1882, and she
received this OIL until her death.

| GRAND FORKS, Sept. 26.-Prohi

pose the adoption of the initiative

The prohibition party in its platform

contend that even now the liquor

SHIPPING EXPLOSIVES.

Inasmuch as there is a very strin'
gent law regulating the shipment OF
explosives, it might be of interest to
the public and especially to sports
men who are liable to pack shells in
their grips or trunks to be shipped as
baggage. . .. g.
The law has been in effect for over
three years, ard yet but few people
know of it. 1t was passed by con.
srcss May 80, 1909. and provides for
a. fine of $4,000 and eighteen months
Imprisonment as maximum penalty.
This law was made necessary BY
several disastrous explosions which
resulted from careless shipment. MI
ners we're found carrying loose dy-
Mantle sticks and blasting caps roll
ed ip paper and left in the seats or
on the floor OF cars. while Others
packed dynamite, blasting powder,
and other explosives in wash tubs
All .
and boxes.
In Montana a few years ago bag
gage crew were killed by the cxplos.
ion OF a piece of baggage. These Aaz'
ards became SO frequent 1t was nee
cssary to regulate the traffic by fed
eral law, and the government has no
mccoy on the viclator even though he
be ignorant o. the law. Notice Gov
ering this may be seen posted in all
baggage rooms.
1t is quite the custom for hunters
going some distance to pack ammunl
ton in their trunks, or valises, II
TO send some by check. This Is Il
positive violation OF the law. Shells
can be transported only by freight or
express and must be distinctly label
led. The railroad companies are de-
sirous that this information be wide
~ disseminated and that all parties
govern themselves accordingly.
