ABRAHAM LINCOLN AND
 PARTNER KEPT SALOON

Not only was license granted to Lincoln and Berry to sell intoxicants. but the Great Emancfpator made the follow statement, which applies to the methods of the modern Anti-Sa- loon League: "The preacher. it is said, advocates temperance because he is a fanatic and desires a Union of the Church and State; the Lawyer from his pride and vanity of hearing himself speak. and the. Hired Agent for his salary"
 Abe Lincoln, were he to return to earth, as his first act would without doubt rebuke and repdiate the meth ods and personnel of the Anti-Saloon League, which pretends from time to time to receive inspiration from the sayings and speeches of this great man.
 The spectacular:ty, the hate, the de- nunciation, the bitterness, the invec tive and the underhand methods that characterize the ,Anti-Saloon League campaigns in behalf of Prohibition are the very things that Lincoln de- plored and publicly spoke against. Lincoln, in his love of his fellow man. was a temperance advocate, but he believed in being charitable in an effort to decrease intemperance, he believed in converting the individual by appealing to his character and in manner to win his confidence. By the same token he was opposed to driving an individual, to denouncing g him, to cursing him and abusing him, always contending that "a drop ( honey catches more flies than a gal lon of gall" '
 In the spring of the year, finding their merchandise gaining them little or nothing, they concluded to keep tavern in addition to their other bus'- ness and the records of the company according to Sangamon County. show that Berry took out a license for that purpose on the 9th of March, 1883 -(From Nicolay X Hay, Vol. Chapter 4. Abraham Lincoln.)
 copy of the original license is or file in Sangamon county, Illinois. ana presents evidence which cannot be disputed.
 | Springfield, Ill.,, March 6, 1883.
 Ordered that Wm. Berry in tho name of Berry & Lincoln, have license to keep a tavern in New Salem to con tinue 12 months from this date ant that they pay one dollar in addition to six dollars heretofore paid as peI Treasury receipt and that they b' allowed who gave bond a. required by law"
 Thus it may be seen that LincolI was a saloon or tavern keeper an, dispensed intoxicating liquors for tn
 profit to be gained therefrOm. Doc anyone think the less of Lincoln fo his business? No. He was one 0 the greatest men of the century. But he was against prohibition. Adv.

IF OUR friends over in the railroad town of Anchorage would trace up John Frames labor record they would probably be somewhat chary of ac- cording him any union votes. At the time MT. Frame was running a paper in Juneau he tried, at the instance of the mine owners, to destroy the union just organized at that place. No in- vective was too mean for them; no efforts at the behest of the mine own CTS too harsh to apply to the newly formed union. He failed to disrupt the Union and lost out. He then mi grated to Cordova where he pursued the same tactics while in control of the Guggenheim publication at that place. When the Guggenheims fired him from their employ he started a little sheet called Truth" which was anything but the truth. After his re- pudiation by the capitalists he be- came an ardent labor advocate in the ory, but not in practice. With an in satiable lust for office John has veered with the wind of public opinion un- til he has worn out the spindle on which he was hung. No more vigOr- ous "union buster" has ever struck the Territory than the editor of the Forty-Ninth Star, and an examination of his record at Juneau will convince any union man of the fact.

Brand of the United States agricultural depart ment's office of markets and rural or sanizations. touching a matter of pop uiar discussion. I don't know where the prices are going" says MT.

 For moment Sandry regarded the speaker in mild astonishment. You must be mistaken Mir Hamp- den,' he said; "all the stumpage for five miles north and east is our prop. erty, with options on every privately owned section for another seven miles i'll both directions. And this tract you speak of lies within mile and half of camp. You are suffering under a hallacination.
 Sandry smiled coldly.
 If you will take the trouble to look up the records in the state land office at Salem" returned fIampden smooth ly, you'll find that I'm in my right mind, all right This here track has been duly filed on under the home stead law by one T. J. O'Connel, and sold by him last week to the Yella Pines Lumber company. Now, my young Fastener, you cant run yer log. trail aerost our land"
 Hampden rose, his little eyes shin ing with savage triumph.
 Sandry rose also.
 "Il1 neither take the trouble to go to Salem nor pay the least attention to your threats,' he said, and his man. ner was coolly unconcerned, and l should advise that you get this com. pany out of your head as quickly as possible. And now good day"
 He turned, as if the interview were at an end, and seated himself at the desk from which Hampden had just risen.
 By gosh. you'd better!" said the other with snap of his heavy jaws as he strode past Daily and out of the open door.
 An. by God, we will"
 This last came in the deep boom of the foreman. who was watching the depart Ng lumberman with the bit. ter enmiA of years of fighting.
 Now, what do you think of that?" asked Sandry in profound disgust

long since lost the Sense Of resentment at the family atmosphere of the camp this is Miss Ordway of New York a famous author-and she has come West to write a new book. Luckily she struck us in her search for local color Can we take her in?"
 Ma Daily looked at the visitor sharp ly and Sandry saw scarce perceptihle change pass over her cheery features
 The vital blue eyes of the younger woman gave back the scrutiny with perfect openness.
 Please do Mrs. Daily" she said in her sweet voice. Please, please do"
 Don't know" said Ma slowly; there ain't any room"
 I'll abdicate," put in Sandry quick ly; "she may have my room and I'll put up cot in the office
 Just at that moment Siletz came in at the west door and, crossing the big room, stood looking out upon the group on the porch. Her dark eyes rested first with fieeting glance on Sandry and then she saw the other
 For moment Sandry forgot the business of the present in watching her face, as he always did when any new emotion touched her. Now he saw her lips part trifle and her eyes widen with amaZement, and he knew that for the first time she beheld and recognized womanly beauty in it's per lection
 She did not speak but leaned against the door-jamb drinking in this appa- rition. In the little pause that fell presently she turned to the old lady.
 Yes, mother,' she said softly, please do."
 The stranger flashed a brilliant glance at her, and with an inimitably pretty gesture reached out gloved hand and patted her arm, bare under the rolled-up sleeve.
 "Mr. Sandry," called John Daily, standing on the foot-log, will ye come down here plinnit ?"
 "Siletz," said Ma, when the glitter ing guest had been shut away in San dry's little south room, what for do you want we should keep herr"
 "Why-I don't know. mother" said the girl simply, 'only she's too beau tiful to let go. She looks like the sun on snow.'
 "Yes. Yes, I think she does.' re- turned Ma inscrutably, "ands about as cold and false"
 AS Sandry joined his foreman he saw that something had ruffled the usually placid temper of the slow giant
 Whats the matter?" he asked.
 "Hampden of the Yella Pines is in the office,'' said Daily sharply, an from his looks he's got somethin' nasty up his sleeve"
 "Oh, yes-Hampden-he's one of the owners, isn't he?"
 The two men walked back to the of flee. and found, seated in the swing chair. with his feet on Sandry's desk, a short, square man with face and manner which set Sandry on edge at

the first glance. They both bespoke a nature self-satisfied to the point of pride, a crafty shrewdness that had been eminently successful and an ada mantine hardness of purpose.
 "Ah. MT. Sandry,' he said, taking his feet from the table with insult ing slowness, I'm Hampden-of the Yella Pines-and l come over on a little matter O business"
 Sandry bowed
 Glad to know you NIT. Hampden," :" he said eivilly. though the memory of up before him, biasing his appraise- ment of the man.
 And I might as well get 1t over with, for it s bound to be against the grain bit"
 AS he spoke, smile that was meant to be insolently apologetic but sue. ceeded only in being clumsy, creased his weathered face, drawing his small, sharp eyes into narrow slits.
 "Yes?' said Sandry coldly.
 It's about that track O stumpage you're slashin' your log-trail acrost."
 "Yes?" said Sandry again. What about the tract? It isn't specially good and we're leaving 1t. Intend to cross it and cut into the East Belt"
 There was slight tone of satisfac- tion in his voice, for the East Belt stumpage was little the best thing in all this magnificent timber country, and the eyes of the Yellow Pines people had been on it enyiously for years, according to John Daily.
 Jus so. Jus so." said Hampden. 'only I'm afraid we'll have to stop your operations, MT Sandry. The fact

When Sandry awOke next morning the gray day was alight outside his pane and he could hear the rumble ct the dinkey as it rocked up from the lower rollway. By this he knew that breakfast was over and the crews out in the hills. Therefore he got into his clothes in double-auick time, swung up to the cook shack, washed in the porch and presented himself with apologies to Ma Daily

She placed a last touch hero and there smiled at him and crossing to the west door, snapped her fingers to the big mongrel and stepped out.
 Sandry, his hand unconsciously poised with raised spoon, watched her, He saw her hasten as she neared tho edge of the level. and finally, as if she could no longer hold herself to tho decorum of her pace, break into flight, running like deer up among the pilies with long bounding leaps. As she dis appeared he dropped his hand and be- came aware Of Ma Daily in the door to the kitchen. She. too, was watching her.
