His fellow citizens knew that Jackson
understood their feelings and their

confidence in Jackson's patriotism and
honesty of purpose. His nature
lacked, however, the sweet, sympa-

Lincoln. and he could not place HIM

BY GEORGE HAVEN PUTNAM.

For the great mass of mankind
death means oblivion. When their
activities have closed there is little
ripple of emotion in the home circle
and then the world knows no more
of their personalities or achievement
We call that man great the remem.
brance of whose life and service is
extended throughout the world and
whose memory gathers increasing
fame from generation to generation.
1t is thus that men are honoring
the memory of Abraham Lincoln.
More than hundred years after his
birth and more than half century
since the dramatic close of his life's
work. Lincoln stands enshrined in the
thought and in the hearts of his
countrymen.
Called Father Abraham"
During the last year of the war his
|appellation had become Father
Abraham" We may recall in the
thought Of his relation to the people
the record of Washington. The first
President has come into history as the
Father OF His Country" but for
Washington this role. of father is
something of historic development.
During Washington's lifetime he was
dear to small circle of intimates; he
was held in respectful regard by q
larger number of those with whom
were carried on his responsibilities in
the Army, and later in the Nations
Government. BY many good Ameri-
cans, however, he was regarded as an
aristocrat, and there were not a few
political leaders. with groups of voters
behind them, who dreaded. and doubt
less honestly dreaded, that the infiu-
ence Of Washington might be utilized
to build up In this country some fresh
form of the monarchy that had been
overthrown. Even when the animosi-
ties and suspicious had died away, the
feeling was one of reverence rather
than affection. This sentiment gave
rise later to the title of Father Of
His Country: but there was no such
personal feeling toward Washington
as warranted, at least during his life,
the term father of the people,"

~ LID MAN SPOILS, since time

received what may be con.
sidered a knockout blow. Appoint
ments to the United States embassies
in Argentina and Belgium and to the
new legations in Ireland and Canada
mean that Uncle Sans foreign serv-
ice has at last been rescued from the
patronage hunters.
Quietly, but effectively, a revolution
has taken place in field which prac-
eical politicians have long regarded
.heir special playground. Never be-
fore in the history of our international
relations have two first class amba ssa-
dorships and two ministerships been
bestowed in a swoop regardless of
mems pull and wholly as rewards
for meritorious service. The ideals
which Secretaries of State like Olney,
Hay. Root. Knox. Lansing and Hughes
consistently espoused have at length
come into their own.

that foreign appointments belong to
deserving partisans. 1t has been
realized that the props were steadily
being taken from under that theory.
But never until this month have they
been knocked away with such vio-
lence. On Capitol Hill, the traditional
center of lobbying for diplomatic. and
consular jobs, it is now recognized that
the jig is up. There is corresponding
remorse among politicians who have
been accustomed to fry campaign fat
out of plutocratic gentlemen ambitious
to serve their country abroad, or to
promise such employment to faithful
party workers.

whereby the employe undertakes not
to join labor union while working
for the employer. In the three identi-

this last refuge of union-hating en-
ployers it is stipulated that provisions
in contract of employment whereby
either party undertakes not to join,
become or remain a member of labor
union or of any organization of en-
ployers, or undertakes in such event
to withdraw from the contract of en-
ployment, shall be against public
policy and void.

Washington. - Labor productivity
has shown marked increase in va
rious industries during recent years.
An article on productivity Of railroad
labor, printed in the Monthly Review,
issued by the United States bureau
Of labor statistics, shows that the out
put of railroad labor has increased
about 40 per cent since 1916, and
about $50 per cent since 1890 for all
employees on Class l railroads.
Percentages are based on the num-
ber of traffic units per employe for
the period 1890 to 1915 and on the
number of traffic units per "hour Of
duty" from 1915 to 1926.
While the study proves that these
increases were almost uninterrupted,
no attempt is made to apportion the
credit for the improvement in out
put as between increased efficiency
of labor, the introduction of new ma
chinery or processes, better manage
ment or of increased traffic.

Word was received at the Mar shal's office at Valdez. recently, from Bristol Bay, stating that an Eskimo named Klutock, who has lived alone for years in the section between the Holitna and Nushagak rivers had murdered a white trapper on Sept. .2. He is also suspected of having killed Arvid Sakrisson and Charles Anderson, Jr, several months ago. These latter were at first believed to have been drowned, but later devel- opments are alleged to point to Klu- tock as having made way with them. The native, it is said, resented the intrusion of the whites upon his trap ping ground, and this is believed to have been the cause of the killing. KlutOck is still at large and is be- lieved to be on the Kuskokwim side of the range.
