FOR STATE SENATOR.
18th Senatorial District
]. r GARNET1'
of Adair County.

Every Democrat in Adair
county is again reminded that it
is very necessary that a full vote
be polIed in the Congressional
race. Judge c. A. Hardin. of
Mercer county, is the Democratic
candidate for Congress, and the
vote on the End of AUGUST is to
elect him, not to nominate, hence
it behooves every person who
believes in Democratic principles
to vote. Judge Hardin is a very
able man, and it is predicted
here that he will take first rank
in Congress. The Eighth District
will evidently roll up a large
majority for him as a testimony
of the high esteem 10 which he
is held-a recognition of the
ability of a man who is destined
to make his mark in the Nation
al Halls of Congress.

Every Democrat in Adair coun-
ty should become active in the
race for Congress. Judge Har.
din is to be elected ION the End
of August, not nominated, and
every voter who believes that he
should succeed the late Harvey
Helm, should be at the polls.

ExcusINe Is ACCUSING.

In France, battle ground for world
freedom, there is a maxim that should
be learned by every American citizen.
It should be memorized in French or
in English Each American citizen
should repeat it before meals and at
bedtime until the close of .ne Victory
Liberty Loan.
In French this maxim is:
"Qui s'excuse s'accuse."
In English:
who excuses himself accuses him.
self"
Perhaps the maxim is no better ex-
pressed in French than in English.
But the French people, who have fur
nished the world the greatest exam
pies in patriotism, give more weight
to this sentiment than do we Amer
leans.
Americans are free people. Espe-
cially are they prone to be free with
excuses. We have been a very inde-
pendent people in thinking and in act
ing, thanks to the democratic form of
our government.
But if ever there was time when
excuses should be laid aside it is dur
ing the Victory Liberty Loan which
is the payment Of the price Of peace.
This will be loan when only valid
excues will really excuse; when fail
ure to support the loan, if able to do
so, is failure to approve of peace.
"Who excuses himself accuses him
self.'

OPPORTUNITY FOR GRATITUDE.

The Price of Peace should be gladly

While war was on we paid-but re-

peace is here we should, and will, pay

The Victory Liberty Loan is the
price of peace. We can pay this

we should gratefully lend to repay the

that only the hopeful call navigable.
The name he gives the captain is an
unknown one-Abraham Lincoln. The
bargain Is struck. The pilots pay for
the round trip from Beardstown on
the Illinois to Springfield on the San
CANON is to be $50. Abraham Lincoln
takes the wheel.
Down the sangamon.
On and on goes the Talisman, creep
ing down the shallow stream, picking
its way among the obtruding snags of
fallen trees, avoiding the shadows. If
the young riverman can make this
voyage, the promoters of the expedi-
ton believe that the markets of the
East will be open to Springfield and
the adjoining settlements, for freight
no longer will have to be hauled over
land to st. Louis.
On and on chugs the steamboat in
the bright March weather, past groups
OF cheering pioneers, who, lined along
the rivers banks, use their axes to
good purpose to clear Instructions in
the way of the first and only steam
boat that ever came up the Sangamon.
The inspirer of the expedition, one
Captain Bogue, mill owner on the
Sangamon, points out his mill as a
likely landing place; but the crowd on
the shore is landmark enough to the
man at the wheel, who has dwelt dur
ing most of his twenty-three years in
lonely places. He looks with interest
at the group of men, women and chill
dren that line the shore, shoMting and
cheering in their delight to see a
steamboat come up the Sangamon.
Many are on horseback, but some
and the youth notes it with interest
profound-are 'flourishing in car
riages." One equipage has lemon-
yellow body, black leather top and
steps covered with carpet that can be
lowered for a lady's descent. Young
Lincoln had not seen the like before.
The readers attention is called to
Lincoln's defeat for the legislature,
his experiences in the Black Hawk
war, his life as storekeeper in New
Salem, and the romantic episode of
his love for and loss of Anne May Rut-
ledge.
In those days board cost 81 week
and good Illinois land could be
bought at $1.50 an acre. The reader
moves on with Lincoln to Spring
field; he now becomes a member of
the legislature, and the writer gives
many details of the life in the capI-
tai, associated with the home ''at the
corner of Eighth and Jackson and
the events connected with the old
State house, where Lincoln was de-
feated by Lyman Trumbun, and
where later still Lincoln lost the SEN
atorshlp to Stephen A. Douglas, only
to win the presidency over his old
time rival.
