Lincoln's Way.

Lincoln may have been land probably
was) highly exasperated at times by the
operations of his advisory board of states
men. But he was large enough to know
that the war he was fighting was not ex-
clusively his war; he was too sensible to
withdraw to an inner room in the White
House and shut himself off from all per-
sonal intercourse with the legislators; be
was too shrewd to build up dead wall
between the Executive and the co-ordi-
nate department to which he must ever
look for the sinews of war, and he was
practically masterful enough to dread no
rivalry in his own constitutional field of
supreme authority.-New York Sun.

Germany Expresses holland.
Big Event of Day.

Germany is increasing her economic
pressure on Holland and now refuses to
let steel go into The Netherlands for ship
ping purposes unless the Dutch agree to
devote the ships to German uses for a
period of five years after the war. Sec
rotary Lansing has received unofficial ad-
vices to that effect, also that Germany
has refused to let Holland have more
coal unless Dutch miners are sent to her
mines to get it out. The State depart
ment's information is that Holland has
replied that if the terms regarding steel
are insisted upon, the Dutch shipyards
will be shut down. The allotment of coal
by Germany to Holland is exhausted and
Dutch industries are said to be in need of
fuel.
