LINCOLN'S LAST SPEECH

LINCOLN'S LAST SPEECH
sixty-four years ago today Abra-
ham Lincoln, from the steps Of the
white house, delivered his last public
address to the American people.
The occasion was informal and the
speech was extemporaneous. General
Lees surrender to General Grant had
occurred just two days before and,
after INDUCING In wilder jubilation,
it occurred to several hundred WASH
ingtonianS that it would be fitting
tribute to the gaunt, worn man in
the white house to call on him early
in the evening and extend their con-
gratulations.
Lincoln responded to their noisy
acclamations by appearing outside
and speaking to them briefly ON the
subject Of reconstruction. He re-
peated his belief that it was not
necessary to decide whether the
southern states were ever out Of the
Union, so long as they were brought
back into proper relationship with
it."
Finding themselves safely at home.
it would be utterly immaterial
whether they had ever been abroad, /"
Lincoln said.
Two evenings later he was assassin
ated. and the difficulties OF recon-
structicn, more difficult in many ways
than the difficulties Of the war itself,
fell onto more belltgerent shoulders.

THE CONSUMER BENEFITS


Prediction BY business and economic authorities that

the wholesaler and retailer is something more than
forecast The new cooperation referred began several
years ego and IN the last year has broadened
mas1hy. Indeed there is ct present such IN intimate
uasn between the various distribution departments
many lines Of business that it is difficult to say precisely
where the wholesalers interests leave off and those Of
the retailer begin.
Distribution has been one Of the knottiest problems
business has had to face The cost Of placing the manu-
featured product in the ultimate consumers hands has
been decTied universally. Unquestionaby the price Of
many articles IN common has been out OF proportion
to tho cat Of producing them But any one at all
familiar With the present situation must admit that
married change has taken place.
While the consumer stu pays disproportonate price
10 some products, on the other hand he pays re-
markahly moderate price for many others. The same
persons who protest against paying price more than
100 PR cent above the manufacturers charge for the
sans goods express amazement at the small margin Of
