Today in
Washington History
BY DONALD A. CRAIG.

November 6, 1S60.-As the voters are
going to the polls today in many States
to cast their ballots in the presidential
election, all indications point to the
election of Abraham Lincoln OF Illinois
as the next President Of the United
States.
Every one in Washington and most
nersons elsewhere in the Nation are
asking, What will be the fate OF the
Federal Government and of the City OF
washington, when Republican Presi-
dent is elected upon an anti-slavery
PLATFORM"
There are may hot-blooded Southern
ers here who freely predict that the
election of Mr.. Lincoln will mean the
breaking in twain of the Union by the
secession of the Southern or slave
holding States. In that case the queS-
ton of the future of this city, which
lies between two slave States, Virginia
and Maryland and is surrounded on
all sides by slave territory, Will become
of paramount Importance. >.
Some persons contend that even II
Virginia does secede from the Union
after the Inauguration of Mr.. Lincoln
as President, Maryland will not follow
the Old Dominion's example. They
base this belief upon the fact that the
northern and western portions OF
Maryland are inhabited by people who
are for the most part opposed to slavery.
Efforts will doubtless be made to
settle the differences between the slave
and free States amicably. Mr.. Lincoln
is something of an unknown quantity
in national politics, however, and per-
sons in official life here are unable ac-
curately to forecast what position he
may take when he enters the White
House. Mr.. Lincoln served one term
in the House of Representatives, but
did not remain here long enough to
make himself known generally to the
people of Washington, nor to make
much of an impression upon the affairs
of the Nation.
It will be remembered, however, that
Representative Lincoln did propose,
while in the House, to abolish slavery
in the District of Columbia, under a
plan by which slave owners here would
be reimbursed for their loss OF slave
property.

in order that he might see better. He
had been there only moment or Two
when he discovered hunter coming
M along the fence. He was on the
ground. working back and forth through
the bushes. Who do you think that
hunter was? It was Reddy Fox. Rustys
heart seemed to give an extra mop
when he discovered that. Now he was
in a tight place and that tight place
was becoming tighter. There was lit
tie tree growing beside the fence just q
little way beyond. In that tree he would
be safe enough from Reddy. But sup
posing Redtail should discover nm up
in that little tree? Rusty shivered
when he thought Of that
Rusty ran along the fence TO the
little tree. Then he sat on a fence
post close by the little tree to wait.
Perhaps Reddy Fox might not discover
him after all. Nearer and nearer came
Reddy. He shifted here and he shifted
there among the bushes along the old
fence. Sometimes he would trot short
distance without shifting.
1T hope he'll do that when he reaches
the place where I was" thought Rusty.
But Reddy didn't. Rusty saw him
stop abruptly and then begin to sniff
around with great interest. Once he
ran out on the Green Meadows little
way with his nose to the ground. He
was taking the back track of Rusty.
But he soon discovered that it was a
back track and once more FASTENED
over to the fence. So it was that in
moment or two he discovered Rusty
sitting on the top of that fencepost
close to the little tree.
Reddy grinned and came hurrying
over to the foot of that post Rusty
didn't wait for him to get there before
climbing up in that little tree. MY,
| my, see who's here!" exclaimed Reddy
| in very pleased tone of voice. What
are you doing SO far from the Green
| Forest?"
To this Rusty made no reply. He
merely glared down at Reddy. Reddy
seemed to be very pleased
Won't you come down and shake
handS?" said Reddy, and chuckled
MY, my, how fine you look! I don't
know when I have been SO glad to see
any one. I never have been very vel
acquainted with you, Rusty, but I fee
it in my bones that we are going tc
become better acquainted very shortly.
Rusty threw a hasty glance over his
shoulder. There was spot in the sky

Rusty the Fox Squirrel was in a
tight place. Rusty had started on a
long journey. He had left the Green
Forest, for there were no nuts there.
He had headed south. for he intended
to keep on going until he should reach
a place where there was food for a
hungry squirrel-food enough to last
him all Winter. Now, long journey
means adventure Rusty had found
this out at once. Before he was across
the Green Meadows the sharp eyes of
Redtail the Hawk had discovered him
and Rusty had been obliged to seek
safety among some bushes along fence
that crossed the Green Meadows just
there.
Those bushes had saved Rusty from
Redtail. But now Rusty didn't know
what to do next. He couldn't see Red
tail, for the latter had flown away,
but he felt certain that Redtail was
sitting where those wonderful eyes OF
his could keep watch of the Green

<Mere brushing cannot
protect THE DANGER LINE

RECENTLY, as the result
of an investigation which
included $4,000 practic-
ing dentists, the dental
profession of America
made these statements:
az Acids are the most frequent
cause of tooth decay and in
fected gums.
(2) The most serious trouble
occurs at the place where
teeth and gums meet-known
Is The Danger Line.
90 The best product known to
neutralize acids in the mouth
is Milk of Magnesia.
It is obvious therefore
that if you are to guard
against the threat of de-
cayed teeth and infected
gums you must prevent acid
decay. And as you cannot
scour the acids away, there
is one way to protect your
self use a dentifrice
that will neutralize them.
