The Lincoln Farm association Is an

which every one shall be entitled to
membership who contributes, through

this hlstorto spot, any sum not lese than

subscriber shall be . recorded In the

bearing on Its face a portrait or Lin
coln, a picture of the cabin In wbfch he
wae bom, and of the white House at
Washington. It wlU also bear the mem
ber's name and the autographs of the
officers and trustees of the association.
Tha board of trustees of the Lincoln
Farm association were actuated In this
movement because they believed that
the most valuable, assets of any na
tion' are the traditions, the sacred
associations and tha shrines made
holy by the accumulator? love with
I them. 'George Eliot said: ''No nation
has ever become great without holidays
and processions dedicated to the noble."
The United States as yet Is notoriously
poor In this direction. , This Is not
wholly on account of Its youth, but on
account also of the indifference to spir
itual welfare which has .characterised a
youth enamored of material plenty and
drunk with the prosperity that comes
from tha easy conquest of fertile acres
and , eahausUess mines. . . American
youths have turned longing eyee toward
the holy places of Europe, and visited
the birthplaces of Robert Burns and
Schiller, the tombs of Walter Scott and
Victor Hugo, and the millennial monu
ment of King Alfred at Winchester;
while the birthplace of our matchless
American the strong-handed, clear
headed and great-hearted Lincoln has
been left, after Its seres have been im
poverished by careless tillage, to be
come a humiliation to the poet and his
torian, and the butt of ridicule to the
Irreverent Pigs and ' cattle have re
duced the basin of the beautiful spring
to a mud-puddle; vandal hands have
carried off the humble cabin wherein a
giant soul was born, and utter neglect
surrounds the first home of the great
American ."Man of Sorrows." ,
Bought Trons Auctioneer.
Realising this neglect, and that this
farm birthplace was to be treated with
still greater indignity by the exploita
tions of speculators ror vulgar, snow
and unwholesome popularity, the associ
ation secured the farm under the auc
tioneer's hammer and now holds it in
trust for the nation. It simply saw the
opportunity, which no one else seemed
desirous of taking, to protect this shrine
from further vandalism, and it desires
to turn it over to the people of the
United States, to be held- forever by
them ss a garden spot In the nation's
history, a trystlng-place whence north
and eouth, eSt and- west tnsy find the
Inspiration of. national unity and a pat
riotic righteousness, a growing witness
that the "dark and bloody ground" is
no longer, and that the "border" state
his become the central r state.. As . a
patriotlo park the Lincoln farm will
differ widely-from our other national
parks, such as Gettysburg, Chtcka
mauga,' Missionary Ridge, Vicksburg
and others, in that it will ever express
our national unity rather than preserve
the memory of our lamentable differ
ences. It will continue to be a birth
place of citizenship and patriotism.
It is the sole purpose of the associa
tion to help the American people to
their own; to cooperate with them In
making this Kentucky farm a worthy
companion of Mount Vernon in the af
fections t the American people and the
admiration of the world. It is the pur
pose of the association . to cooperate
with the lovers of Lincoln, old and
young, and as need be help rather than
dictate or direct . their patriotic gene
rosity. . .)

The historic ' ground will be owned
and cared for by the Lincoln Farm as
sociation's self-supporting committee of
cltlsens. To them will ba entrusted the
expenditure of the subsidy which the
members of the Lincoln Farm associa
tion shall raiser Lying, ss this farm
does, almost at the center of our popu
lation, it will ever.be the most accessi
ble and in many ways -will be the most
attractive of our historlo parks. It will
be the most significant and .' the most
useful as a common ground, typifying
the large Industrial development grow
ing out of the political . harmony of
80,000,000 of ' people a. great national
school of peace., civic righteousness slid
unity, ' a museum - of . national loyalty,
where all animosity will forever be
burled and where north and , south will
find a common ground of pride.
