With Mfe and Nature r, -Martyred

of - Country and Freedom. , :
In - common with all America, the
city of Portland yesterday gave many
a garland of love to the memory of
Abraham Lincoln on tire anniversary
of his birth. Always of great signifi
cance to the Nation, the day . grew
even greater, in fancy and actuality,
as thought turned to the epochal
crisis in tlie commonwealth's affairs .
such a crisis as President Lincoln
confronted, and mastered, though it led
to martyrdom.
If one is pessimistic in his view of
the American spirit of our deep love
for high ideals and affection for those
who interpret them, he might well
have attended the exercises at any
Portland school yesterday and felt
shame at his doubt. For the school
children of Portland keep the memory"
of the great emancipator green, and
through the simple exercises they offer
to it runs an understanding, an ap
preciation that will endure. -
Courts Closed la Tribute.
Yesterday was "non-Judicial' in the
legal calendar, and the courts were
closed in tribute to the lanky young
Kentucklan, who gleaned his first
book learning by the light of a log
fire, and to whom the pathway of the
law did not open in great. universities.
Once upon a time Abe Lincoln
coined, among tho myriad pithy
Americanisms . that are attributed to
him, the observation that "God must
have loved the common people, because
he made so many of them." When the
mints struck the new pennies they
bore the head of Lincoln to pass cur
rent among those folk that Lincoln
was so certain were close to the heart
of the universe.,-
Yesterday in Portland, as through
out America, all financial institutions
and banks closed their doors in
tribute to the great American, whose
profile, is on the humblest . coin their
complex counting machines . bale in
thousands. .
Special Exercises la Schools.
In the schools of Portland there were
special Lincoln day exercises, readings,
recitations and essays that dealt with
the life and lovable nature of the
martyred President, and there were
songs such as be cared for stanzas
that sing of the love of country and
freedom.
Many. , of the downtown business
houses and all public buildings floated
flags in observance of the day, snd
several special Lincoln day assemblies
were held at which speakers told of
his worth to the Nation and his ex
ample to modern Americanism.
At the high schools speakers ad
dressed the students. Various frater
nal organizations observed the day.
The Modern Woodmen of America gave
programme and entertainment last
nieht at their hall. Williams avenue
and Skidmore street. At the Knights
Templar lodge, Washington Com
mandery, last night. Rev. Joshua Stans
