Mason and sliddell Incident.
A short time after this our Govern
ment was again involved in q COM
plication with Great Britain. This
was brought about by the jealous Of
fees of Captain Charles Wilkes. OF
the gunboat San Jacinto." who over
hauled the British mail steamer
Trent" and took from the passenger
cabin ex-senator j. M. Mason and
John Slidell, who had been accredited
by the Confederate Government as
ENJOYS to the European courts. These
men had eluded the blockade and
sailed from Havana. This act was re-
garded by the British Government as
an insult to their flag and violation
of international law, and the British
Minister was instructed to close the
legation and return to England un-
less the prisoners were released and
satisfactory apology offered inside
a week. The delicacy Of the situation
was added to by the fact that the Sec
rotary OF the Navy had approved OF
the action Of Captain Wilkes and
Congress had passed resolution COM
mending him for his patriotic con-
duct. Again the President took the
matter in his own hands and long
and courteous dispatch was prepared
suggesting that the matter be sub
mitted to arbitration, but before 1t
could be sent Lincoln saw that the
position of our Government was un-
tenable, and with his keen perception
he thought Of way in which the
United States could honorably with
draw and at the same time use the
Incident to our advantage and in the
end get the better of the controversy.
Eight thousand English troops were
preparing to start for Canada, the
British fleet had been ordered to
American waters and the export of
from England had been
forbidden when Lincoln sent the fol-
lowing message:

courage, but because, like the story
no used to tell of the farmer who was
unable to remove big log from his
field and ''ploughed around it." he
"ploughed around" many delicate sit
uations Of state which required the
finest art of diplomacy.
Critical Period.
Lincoln came to the Presidential
chair at perhaps the most critical
period OF our country's existence, and
diplomacy In its rarest form was
necessary to save the Ship Of State
from distinction. President Buchanan
had practically conceded the claim of
the Confcleracy to be recognized as
"a nation by the powers of Europe,
thereby admitting that "the Federal
Government had no authority to keep
"a State In the Union If 1t desired to
secede," and later had sent message
to Congress throwing the burden OF
the affair upon their shoulders. Eng
land and France heard nothing from
the United States on the subject until
late In february, when Secretary of

has como up to high standard al
though proper mounts are still lack
ing. Tho manoeuvering grounds for
all the arms Of the service are the
broad, fat plains generally over re-
claimed land near tho seashore.
Queen Opposed To War.
The Queen has always been OPP
posed to war. and while she believes
in preparedness only the direct me-
cessity would cause her to give her
consent to plunsing her people into
war. She has taken the deepestA In
terest in the refugees, and her sweet.
womanly influence has been felt in
the relief work. A woman OF rare
good sense and tact, her people fairly
worship her, and what the Queen
thinks and what the Queen wants
done goes far toward shaping Hol-
lands policies.

Holland.
There was nothing to do, and as
IAN idle brain Is the devils work
shop" some OF them became quarrel
some and the Hollanders had no lit
tie difficulty In keeping order In the
camp. Finally there came the inspec-
ton by the Rockefeller Foundation
War Relief Commission, and they de-
cded that the refugees must be given
some work as tho long idleness was
undermining their energy. 1t was then
decided to establish n working camp
at Rotterdam where the women might
make clothing. Accordingly, sewing
machines, cloth, muslin. etc. were
provided and the women OF the camp
set to work with will making under
wear. Those who could not use the
machines were given yarn and they
have knitted hundreds of warm gar
ments.
Holland Prepared.
That Holland is uncertain as to the
attitude of Germany toward her is
shown In her preparedness. Although
small country her resources are
surprising and everywhere one finds
storehouses being filed for use In case
Of emergency. Indeed, all Western
Holland is vast storehouse loaded
with everything necessary to support
the Dutch people and with surplus
sufficient to meet the needs Of an
army during years campaign. All
Eastern and Southern Holland is an
armed camp where soldiers drill and
have target practice all day long. A
number of regiments are stationed
near the German frontier and the
whole border between Belgium and
Holland is well guarded.
The Groote Market in Rotterdam Is
filed with food products. Holland
has imported Thousands Of pounds OF
raw material over her regulation i'm

away. Copper, wheat, cotton and
medical supplies are safely placed

HNERHAPS no man in our public
life was better Judge Of hui
man nature than Abraham
Lincoln. To his clear insight
into motives actuating human action
was due his success both rs lawyer
and diplomat. In the days when he
was at the bar and on the frontier
law books were few and the lawyers
were thrown upon their own reason
ing powers for the underlying prin-
ciples OF Justice and for the rules
which should guide men in their re-
lations toward each other. 1t was tho
hard school OF necessity but 1t Gre
ated men of thought, OF deep feeling
and self-relianco.
Early Struggles.
Lincoln's early life had been one
long struggle. With practically no
education except what he obtained by
his fondness for readIng-an unusual
trait among the pioneers Of the Mid
die West, he fought his way up the
ladder to the highest office in our
land. Up to the time his father moved
to Illinois Lincoln had made little
progress toward his goal in life-that

tious young frontiersman decided that

six years for the unmounted corps
and eight years for the mounted corps.
The sea enlistment Is for five years.
After having fulfilled their active
service the militiamen pass to the
"landweer" for seven years; they can

~HE neutral countries OF Europe

exception of Switzerland and
" Holland, all OF the others have
been solicited to join one side or the
other. Holland Is close to the early
scenes of action and not far from
her border the fighting has been fierce
since the beginning of the war. This
has made her position both delicate
and dangerous.
Population Increased BY Refugees.
When it is learned that her popu-
lation was about six million on Au-
gust first. 1914. and that by October
18th 1t had increased at least mil
lion, the majority OF whom were refu-
gees without money. 1t can be readily
understood that the war burdens Of
this little country taxed her people
to the utmost. The Hollander is slow
mentally, but when once aroused he
acts. and acts quickly. So, when the
refugees came pouring over the bor-
der by the Thousands, first by way of
Maestricht and later by the way Of
Weert, Tilburg and Antwerp. the ma
tiyes of Holland arose as one man to
give aid to these unfortunate people,
Aside from the refugees, they also

and in order to care for these men
and to guard the border as well 1t has
been necessary for Holland to keep
an army of at least two hundred and
fifty thousand modified.
Refugee Camps.
After a time refugee camps were
set up in Holland and several hun
bred thousand persons were quar-
tered there. AS things In Belgium
quieted down many of the refugees
returned to their homes but three
months ago there were still one hun
bred thousand persons in the camps.
When winter came on there was much
suffering and the Dutch committees
were unable to meet the demand.
After the Belgian Relief Fund came
from America the condition Of the
refugees was ameliorated somewhat
as to outside clothing. but they still
lacked the warm undergarments 80
necessary in the cold. wet winters OF
