The Republican and Party

Every now and then somebody challenges the repubiicanism of The Republican; complains that it is playing the game, usually because it oriticizes machine politics because it believes that parties are formed and not to be served l,y the whole people, Our latest accuser is "The American Economist" organ of the American Isrotective League which attacks recent article in the Literary Digest, Tax Relief Demanded Before Tariff Revision"
 The American Economist states that the Literary Digest pretending learn the sentiment of the country ascertaned the views of only "handpicked" rrewspapers and listed among them the Phoenix, srizona Republican, as a republican paper, although tbe only thing about is its the Literary Digest well knows later it quotes from it re- feerring to it Ind.

THE LiLAcS BLOOM ONCE MORE
 By pr. William E. Barton

On morrow of yesterday. 56 years ago. the nation awoke to tidngs of terror On the preceding night, Friday, April 14, 1965 Abraham Lincoln was shot and early the next morning he died. Fffty-six years is long time, but there still living, in nearly every community in America, who remember the incredible horror of that tragedy
 Then followed what must be reckoned the remarkable funeral of modern times, the body of Abraham Lincoln journeyed by slow stages, by night and day. through various cities, back to his Walt whitman in verses well known, but characteristic of him. told the of the nations grief in 70, Captain, My Captain" But that was not his finest interpretation of the event. The most and tender lines that he wrote about it in his longer poem:
 When lilacs last in the dooryard bloomed, And the great star early droopd in the west
 sky in the night,
 mourned, and yet shall mourn with ever
 returning spring.
 Ever r-returning spring, trinity sure to me you
 bring,
 Lilac blooming perennial, and dropping
 in the west
 And thought of him I love-
 The poem is discursve but nothing written has so remarkably preserved to the imagination the picture of the sad procession from Washington westward
 "Coffin that passes through lanes and streets Through day and night with the great cloud
 darkenng the land
 With the pomp the inlooped flags, with the
 cities draped in black,
 With the show the states themselves of
 crape- yelled women standing
 With processions long and winding and the
 flambeaus of the night,
 With the countless torches lit, with the silent
 sea of faces and the unbared heads, With the waiting depot, the arriving coffin.
 and the somber faces
 With dirges through the night, with the thou
 sand voices rising strong and solemn With all the mournful voices the dirges
 poured around the coffin,
 The dim- lit churches the shuddering -here amid these your journey, With tolling toling bells perpetual clang,
 Here, coffin that slowly passes,
 give you my sprig of lilac" Again the lilac blooms in the dooryard; again the great droops in the vest again those who are older remember and those who young are told of him that bore the sorrows his country through four long years of war. and never cherished enmity the spirit of revenge; and to beat when peace returned and the | nlacs bloomed in the dooryard. | Hooverizing which once meant kitchen co-opera' l h CN-are

ROBBERY AT La SALE
Store and Postoffice Was Invaded By
Thief; Little Taken

st, James, Mimi, December 3d.
La Sale seems to be the mark now for
robbers. Sheriff Bermel was notified
Wednesday morning that the Alfred
Sletta store and postoffice had been
entered sometime during the night
Tuesday night and that the safe had
been opened, some money and STAMPS
taken and green mackinaw coat
stolen from the store. The robber or
robbers evidently were after money
and stamps and did not bother with
the things in the store except the
coat which he very likely thought
would come in handy.
Entrance was made by taking on
the storm window, breaking the glass
in the window and entering that way.
The door was unlocked from the IN
side and he could go out by the back
door. 1t is believed that the robbery
was committed between II o'clock
and morning as there was party in
the town that evening and people
were up at that time until midnight.
No one heard anything in the night
and the robbery was not discovered
until the store was opened the next
morning. Sheriff Bermel, with the
County Attorney, ]. L. I.obben went
over to La Sale Wednesday morning
to investigate There is little clue
to- work on. The amount OF money
and stamps secured was not large.

barn door everf few weeks, presumably
by some one who was stealing fuel there.
About three months ago, she received
the first note, in which the writer started
out by telling her. tina she was an enemy
of his. and that she had better quit put
ting locks on her barn door as he would
cut them off as fast as she put them on,
and that II she did not stop locking the
barn 1t would be going up in smoke.
The second note was recently found
in the barn after paddock had been
cut, and informed Mrs. Brandenburg that
she could afford to buy the fuel the
writer was taking; that he was getting
tired OF being compelled to cut away
locks and that If she did not stop locking
the barn he would set 1t afire.
Mrs Brandenburg saved both notes.
