The Presidential election in 1864 re-
suited in Lincoln carrying all but three
states. The seeded states held no
election. The states of New Jersey,
Delaware and Kentucky were carried
by General Mcclellan. the Democratic
candidate.
In responding to serenade after his
election, Mr. Lincoln said:

Lincoln was reviled and censured bv
members of his own party as strongly
as he was by the Copperhead Demo
Gratis. Criticized on all sides at every
move he made to serve the people ana
save the Union, it was no easy task to
steer the ship of state. The abolition
element in his party was thorn in his
side as much as the Vallandighams
who opposed coercion Of the seeded
states. He did not move fast enough
in freeing the negroes to suit them.
Then he had the jealousies among the
commanding officers in the army to
contend with. General Fremont, in

Abraham Lincoln was the most re-
markable man in the history of our
country. Born in abject poverty and
obseurity in the wilds of Kentucky,
with no facilities for obtaining an edu-

to eminence as statesman and became
the Chief Magistrate of the Republic
when it was his privilege to set free
three million slaves. At the age of Sc,

though nearly every home has plenty

trouble getting their stock fed these
iwintry days. In this Hudson Bay
country. famed throughout the north
west as the warmest valley in Oregon,
many barns are not built for warmth
but merely as protection for the
stock. This week and last, cattle are
consuming twice as much hay as usual

enough to own a spring where all
they have to do is chop a hole in the
