LINCOLN'S LEADERSHIP OF HIS
 PARTY.

MT. Lincoln became the recognized leader of the republican party through a process of moral evolution. Other supreme qualifications were made clear But his leadership was essen tially moral rather than political.
 His rare political sagacity was seen to be the practical outcome of his wisdom and rectitude. His moral in sight. his intense sympathes his en- during courage. his undaunted faith and perhaps more than these his hu
 miIity and almost infinite patience made him the leader he was. These characteristics may be said to have crea ted a new tyne of leadership. h.
 capable of self assertion, he had the far greater power of merging his whole personality in the cause for which he stood. and the equal power of identifying himself with all those with whom he was called upon to act and to suffer. He thus became the leader because the representative, of the people in their hour of chas
 tisement, of suffering and of struggle.
 In the. striking epitome of MT Emerson, He was the true history Of the American people in his time Step by step he~ walked before them: slow with their slowness. quickening his march by theirs, the true representa- tive of this continent; an entirely public man: father of his country, the pulse of 20 millions throbbing in his heart the thought of their minds ar ticulated by his tongue

EFFECT OF MOOSE
 MULLIGAn ON HARD
 WORKED REPORTERS
Arrival of Five Gallons of the De licacy Causes Suspension of Publication; How Operators Kid Each Other Over
 Wire

When several gallons of dove null ligan arrived from the Moose home last night, The Republican news de- partment suspended publication. Even the exclusive leased wire operator broke" and told the line" that the lights had gone out-which excuse is old stuff-old stuff During the luIl that followed broken only by the sound of q dozen telegraph editors, reporters and so-called dramatic critics inhal- ing the fluid that constitutes the cfiefest part of a mulligan-this tick ing confab was heard over the wire: Bisbee-"Dang the luck, I lose money on that fight"
 Tucson-"Tough luck, ole kid. How much you lose?''
 Bisbee - CMournfully) T lose a hundred beans An I can't afford to lose them hundred beans, believe me-
 Tucson--CAccent of extreme doubt easily discernable among the ticks of the instrufnen) A hundred bucks? You? A telegraph operator? Aw tie that bull outside?"
 Phoenix, cutting in suddenly-"T it outside is right. No operator ever had that much money. Humph,"
 But it was some mulligan. Honest. the guys that went out and got their shoulders all bruised up so they couldn't edit telegraph or do anything but grouch around and brag about how few shots they missed. sure got consoled when they began to spoon up the birds.
 Old Count Melnik, the merry old soul sat outside Moose headquarters and fairly sopped up the hot dog sandwiches. Harry West who is Loyal Moose, was the only member now extant, who did not really prize the memory of that mulligan after it was over. Harry couldn't be pres ent, so his old lodge-mates tied up bundle of feathers and sent them to him.

REPORTED CARLOADS
OF PIPE CONDEMNED

Five carloads of vitrified sewer pipe
that was to have been used in the
construction of the new Holtville sew
er system has been condemned by the
Holtville city engineer, because of de-
fective construction, according to re-
ports received here this morning. The
entire consignment of pipe had been
unloaded from the cars and placed on
the ground for immediate installation,
but the startling discovery that the
entire lot is of defective construction
probably will necessitate a delay un-
i'll a consignment has been received
to replace the defective pipe.
The discovery will probably influ-
ence the trustees in the selection of
pipe for the proposed joint sewer sys-
tenn of this city and Imperial, accord
ing to Mayor Swanson, who stated
this morning that the board was con-
sidering the advisability of installing
cement pipe.
The pipe will be constructed here, he
said, which will assure the city that
the construction is not defective.

Unable to withstand the ravages of
