Car Smashes Buggy !:

Chok1o Review.-While driving in
from the farm north of Chokio Tues
day evening, William Golden's buggy
was struck by an automobile driven
by Albert Peterson. Mr.. Golden was
thrown from the buggy and received
a very bad cut over the eye and a
severe bruise on his arm. Peterson
did not see the rig, the lights on his
car refused to burn, and smashed in
to it while attempting to drive into
town in the dark. Mr.. Golden is an
old man and the accident is rather
hard on him.

"Future generations cannot see

If the time, place and occasion of
this proposed portrait of Lincoln were
left to a vote of the American people,
what would 1t choose? There certainly
Is wealth of suggestive occasions.
Take, for instance, the debates of
1858 between Lincoln and Douglas, on
which in reality the fate of the nation
largely hung. Vice President Marshall,
when boy of four. heard the Free
port debate and was on the platform.
He says:
while Mr.. Lincoln was talking ]
sat on the knees of Senator Douglas,
and he never said one word to me
Just held me. When ii came his turn

made the mistake of indirectly accus.

TO the old story that he had voted
against appropriations for the soldiers
in the war with Mexico. Sitting on the
platform as chairman of the Douglas
committee was Colonel Orlando B.
Ficklin. As soon as ii came his TURF
to speak Mr.. Lincoln grabbed him BY
the shoulders, dragged him TO the
front of the platform and shouted Il
the audience:

the right, as God gives us to see the
right"
But in all probability Lincoln at
Gettysburg touched his highest with
the written and spoken word 1t was
great assemblage of the wlsest and
best of the nation. Edward Everett,
statesman. patriot and orator, was
the speaker of the day. He delivered
a long, eloquent and notable address.
Then President Lincoln arose and
said just 257 words.
Those 257 words were not appre-
ciated at the time. They were drowned
by Everett's flood of eloquence Today
Everett's grafton is known only 10
students. Today Lincoln's 257 words
have been committed to memory by
the world.
Do not think for one minute that
Lincoln's Gettysburg address was
happy incident. His letters, his de-
bates, his speeches--all his papers
proclaim his mastery of the written
and spoken word.
Nevertheless, Lincoln's Gettysburg
address is in a sense the sublimation
of all that he wrote and said. II is
the utterance of great soul aroused
to expression by a great occasion. 1t
touches the heart. 1t satisfies the
brain. 1t is Abraham Lincoln HIM
self.
Lloyd George, In his tribute to Lin
coin at the unwilling of the Lincoln
statue last August near Westminster
Abbey, used these words:
81 am not sure that you in America
realize the extent to which he is also
our possession and our pride.
In his life he was a great American.
He Is an American no longer. He Is
one of those giant figures, of whom
there are very few in history, VINO

are no longer Greek or Hebrew or

of the house of represen-
tatives. II Mr.. Monahan's resolution
goes through. the portrait painter Sc
lected to make the portrait may well
feel proud over his selection. But few
real artists will be envious of him.
For Abraham Lincoln was so many
kinds of man that his physical body
produced widely differing impressions,
even upon those accustomed to his
presence and familiar with the many
sldedness of his character. Moreover,
the whole civilized world has now
come to revere and love the name of
Lincoln and will be satisfied with
nothing less than a great achievement
by the painter of this portrait.
This Is the moral of the recent con-
troyersy over the statue of Lincoln
erected In London. II will be remem-
bered that the British government set
apart site related to the house of par
lament and Westminster Abbey for
this statue. A controversy arose over
the choice between two statues. The
II
ing that one of these statues fell far
short of doing Lincoln justice. The
British government asked the United
States department of state to settle
the controversy. The department of
state referred the question to the com
mission of fine arts. The commission
reported to the British government
that the "man and site call for a
statue representative of the highest
achievement of the American sculptor"
and advised Great Britain that "such
is the statue of Abraham Lincoln exc
cuted by Augustus Salnt-Gaudens and
erected in Lincoln park. Chicago" The
British government accepted the re-
port of the commission.
The world does not want hand
some Lincoln. but 1t does insist upon
an impressive Lincoln and viii toler-
ate no suggestion of the grotesque or
| the inefficient.
Lincoln well knew the wide varia-
ton of impressions his appearance
and actions produced. No doubt he
grieved over II. But his philosophy
rose superior and his course was set
according TO his declaration:
IF | were to try TO read, much
| less answer. all the attacks made on
me, this shop might as well be closed

Horse-Raisina States.

Ninety per cent of the 25,0O0,OOO
horses and mules In the United States
are on farms. and only about 10 per
cent are in cities, towns, villages and
other non-agricultural work, according
to advance figures of the 1920 census
1t Is natural that the ten central
states of the great corn belt-Ohio,
Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Kan
sas, Oklahoma. Nebraska and the two
Dakotas-where coarse grains are
raised In plenty, should be the great
reservoir of horse and mule produc-
ton, rearing approximately three
f1fths of all the horses and mules In
the country.
The farmers of this section produc-
ing horses and mules, supply their own
needs, furnish work stock for adjoin-
ing farms where horses and mules are
not reared. also the heavy drafters,
wagon horses and expressers wanted
in cities, towns and villages, and the
farm chunks for eastern states where
horse and mule production is not so
common.
