Abraham Lincoln IN y letter written
November u, 1884, said: "As . result
of the war, corporations have been
enthroned and IN era Of corruption
in high, places will follow, aud the
money power will endeAvor to pro-
long its reign by working upon the
prejudice Of the people until all the
wealth is aggregated In = few hands
and the republic IL destroyed. I feel
at this moment more anxiety for the
safety of my country than ever be-
fore, even In the midst Of war. God
grant that my suspicious may prove
groundless. Perhaps Abraham Lin
coin also saw that his own party
wonld be the agent which the money
power would use In '.aggregating all
the wealth In = few hands" With
such sentiments ~ these, Abraham
Lincoln, were he alive today, would
vote for Woodrow Wilson.-Durango

the silent advance of the relentless CT Land. The dainty actress is at her pest in boyish parts. such as Peter Pan'' and the pathetic "L'AigIon," and not even the divine Sarah herself was the equal of the American actress in the latter role.
 Maude Adams Kiskaddon is the real name of the actress, now forty, fair and frail, who was born in Salt Lake City, on Nov Il, 1872. Her father was James Kiskadden, of Irish descent, a business man of the Mormon metropo- lis. Her mother was Annie Adams, leading woman in 8 Salt Lake stock company, and daughter of Utah pioneer who came of John Quincy Adams stock. Annie Adams did not permit marriage and motherhood to in- terfere with her theatrical ambitions, and from her infancy Maude was ac- customed' to the atmosphere of Thes- pianism. The Salt Lake theatre, a playhouse subsidized by the Mormon church, was the scene of Maude's pre- nine months old. Phil Margetts an Engiishman who was then a popular comedian. but who later became a li- responsible for the early debut of Miss Adams. In farce entitled "The Lost Child'' Margetts was cast for infant. He had to appear on the stage fondling baby and an imitation in fant, made of rags. was provided for and demanded that he be supplied with the real article. After much persuasion Mrs. Kiskadden was induced to loan AIaude to the outraged actor.
 Miss Adams was five years when she made her first voluntary appear ance on the stage, this time at the Bush Street theatre in San Francis CO., She essayed the role of Little Schneider in one of J. K. Emmet's Fritz productions. At six little Maude was sent to school, where she remained for ten years, although dur ing vacations she often appeared in child parts in plays with her mother. At sixteen she made her bow to a New York audience at the Madison Square theatre, as schooInistress in Hoyt's "A Midnight BeH.'' Her first real hit was as the crippled girl in tTI1e Lost Paradise.n At twenty she became leading woman with John Drew. Her initial appearance as a star was as Lady Babbie, in ''The Little Minister at Washington
 Seven years ago this month, at the Empire theatre in New York, where she is soon to be seen again in the same role Peter Pan'' was launch ed on it's successful run Of two seasons. She has since appeared in the roles of "Chanteeler'' and as Maggie in What Every Woman Knows with great sue cess; but it is as the creator of Peter Pan that she Is best known and most loved.
 Forty today, Miss Adams is yet girl, and the idol and the inspiration of millions of other girfs of from six to sixty. There may be a greater ar tist, but there is no greater woman on the stage today.
