ALASKA IS

Valdez, Alaska, Jan. 31,-Violent
earthquake shocks the seyerest ever
experienced, were felt over various
sections of Alaska today, the move
ment being from northeast to south
west, with oscillation through an arc
Of six degrees.
From Cordova came word that
heavy shocks were felt far into the
interior. The temblor was felt on
the coast as far west as Seward,
Fairbanks and $50 miles inland, with
reports that the sh"ck was most Sc
verein the Tanana Valley.
At Cordova the FIRST shock lasted
10 seconds and caused buildings to
sway alarmlngly. Everyone rushed
into the street for safety, but no
damage was done.
A wireless message from St. Paul
Island says all are well on the Priby-
loff Islands.
Nine minor tremors Of brief dura.
ton followed the first shock. Where
there are only two-story wooden
buildings no damage was done. Word
has not been received concerning the
effect Of the earthquake on the gla-
ciers and the mountains.

Could Not See Into Future.
Those who heard Lincoln's conven-
ton speech in Bloomington could not
know that it would be followed BY
his house divided against itself"
speech in 1858: that the Lincoln-Doug-
las debates would elect him president
in 1860. and that the resulting civil
war would usher in the thirteenth
amendment. The most that the
Bloomington resolutions dared ask
for was the restoration of the Mis-
souri, compromise, the prohibition of
slavery in all the territories. and the
Immediate admission of Kansas as a
free state.
Such was the bewilderment of pub
lie thought, such the party antagon-
isms of the past, such the uncertain
Ties of the future that the Blooming
ton convention could only call itself
an anti-Nebraskan organization. and
even the national convention at Phila-
delpllia three weeks later. which NOM
mated Fremont, did not yet adopt the
in it's platform.
Fifty-six years have passed since
the memorable convention of 1856,
being the real birthplace of the re-
publican party. The passing years
have been marked by history maxi
ing, but it is fitting to extend full
credit to those great leaders Of ante
bellum days who preserved the union.
