AT T1IIC dedication of tho stntuo
of Ahrnhnni Lincoln Hint stnnds
In Kentucky's now cnpltol nt
i'rniiKrort, President Tart ninilo a
jiolnt thiiH hnpplly nnd inoiunrnbly:
"I don't think It too much to say
Hint Lincoln hnd the most Judicial
temperament of nny man In history."
In n time of tho fiercest passion Lin
coln porsonnlly lived, thought, nnd
worked In n region nbovo It, and
readied his momentous conclusions
unaffected by It. He said ninny In
cIhIvo things, but He was fair to"
others, helrt tnom In n spirit of uu
fnlllng good tomper, nothing sarcas
tic nor oven satirical. His Illustra
tions cnrrlcd a laugh ns well as nr
RUtucnts that could not bo answered.
His life-long nltn wns to convince,
keeping nil efforts to thnt cud with
in tho bounds of common lntel'oc
tual rights nnd tho restraints of
kindly feeling. His principles were
absolutely firm, but his methods of
speaking for them Just as completely
dispassionate.
The exniuplo Is of tho highest val
ue to tho country. It will bo needed
In future nntlonnl emergencies, some
of which, it Is practically certain,
will come as suddenly nnd urgently
ns thnt which raised Lincoln at a
stroko to supremo leadership in n
strnngo crisis. Passion nover Influ
enced him, nor did tho passions of
others. Ho snw thorn all, but never
Bhnred thoni nor wns swayed by
them. Ono of Lincoln's earliest ad
dresses was n philosophic forecast of
whnt changes Aiuoricnu chnrncter
would undergo when the pride of
fellowship In tho revolutionary po
rlod should be ended by tlmo, and
tho duties of tho now republic pass
ed along by thoso who created It. Mis
address, woighty if youthful, la m
the main n warning against tho In
dulgence of pnsslng or n light osti
inute of tho porpotunl responsibili
ties of freo government. Lincoln
statues and momorlnls ought to bo
found in ovory stnto.

Editor Coob nny Times:
In Monday's dally of November
21, you publish an announcement of
Mr. C F. Barnard in regard to
changing the mull from tho Coos lliy
rond to tho Myrtle Point rond If tho
Coos Day road Is not kept up.
According to bis own stntomont,
nil Mr. Morse expects or asks Is that
tho road bo kept In pnssablo condi
tion, and tho road at present is in
good passable condition and I do not
think there will bo any trouble In
keeping it so except there should
bo unuBiinl storms.
I hnvo two mon working In tho
canyon and will keep them ns long
ns needed, nnd their work Is sails-
factory to mo regardless of what the
stago drivers say.
There havo beon no dclnyB to tho
mnll caused by slides or trees In
rond that I have seen or been no
tified of. The slide thnt Mr. J. D.
Laird speaks of on Drowsier grade
is on now grade, but tho old rond
Is still Intact and in good passable
condition.
The stago Is tanking tho drive from
Sumner to my pmco in 0 M: hours, 'i
miles, which time Includes tlmo usad
in changing teams nt station, which
I consider is good time nnd shows
thnt the roads are not so awful it
Mr. Haines UiIuIcb ti.oy nre.
I do not think the people of Marsh
flcld need havo any fear of tho mnll
being changed to the Myrtle Point
road ns thoro is too much monov In
lit for Mr. Dnrnnrd as it Is with the
present condition of tho road.
