This In tho anniversary of the birth,
or Abraham Lincoln, who possessed
no equal, nnd only ono Imitator ot any
consequence. Lincoln was homely
and human, and a coiner of apt philo
sophic epigrams, the most quoted one
being. ''You can fool part of the people
part of the time, but you can't fool all
the people all the time." His apprai
sal of the ways of the rank and file,
is subject to revision, as of late years
the masses have shown slims ot a
passionate desire to be bamboozled,
indefinitely.

SALEM, Ore., Feb. 10. Ono gets
the idea from Governor Pierce that
Oregon consists ot a legiBlaturo en
tirely siirroundod by outraged farm
ers. The picture Is scarcely a cor
rect ono. There are nearly 400,000
dwellers In cities and towns in the
state according to statistics at the

paid, a federal Income tax. So the

Last night tho "Third House" had
an Inning. It was supposed to be a
burlesque on the legislature, but it
really wasn't as funny us the legis
lature. O. L. Holman, reading clerk forty
years ago, was Imported from Dallas
and did his best to fill a comic role.
Pat Gallagher, a former member ot
the house, and a casualty of the re
cent election assisted Mr. Holman, as
did Dr. Slaughter of Salem. But the
proceedings dragged. Tho comic note
was forced. Comedy to bo convinc
ing muBt have a basis of reality and
thero was no reality to the burles
quo for the simplo reason that to bur
lesque a burlesque equals nothing.
The most interesting stunt was put
on by Holman when he read the roll
of members of forty years ago from
muniorv. When tho meeting ended
with everyone singing tho Star!
Spangled Banner,"" dancing was an
nounced and duly enjoyed In. the ro
tunda. President of the Senate Jay
Upton, Senator Charley Hall and
Senator Uus Moser joined In reduc
tion oxerciBes with the prettiest girl
Htenoarauhcrs nnd naees. and when
tho revelry was at Its height, Gov-
ernor Pierce walked through from'
his chambers with his eldest daugh
ter on his arm. Tho governor looked

ing. In fact In certain quarters thero
was almost a suggestion of moon
light waltzing, and the music had oc
casional suggestions of pazz. Hardly
a fitting plcturo for a bono' dry ad
ministration of plttilcss retrench
ment. The governor carried it off
however with a bow and a smilo, and
to show thero was no shameful ex
travagance Messrs. Hall and Upton
passed tho hat to pay for the orches
tra. No legislature Is complete without
B batch of bills relating to bulls.
They always come up nnd they aro
always passed. Heaven only knows
how many bull bills thero mint be:
.now on tho statute books. Another i
ono passed tho senato- yesterday'
which among other things required
ono pure blooded bull with every
twenty-flvo cows. Senator Dunn was
tho only member to oppose the bill,
and aftor tho roll call a number ot
senators changed tholr votes from
Aye to No. Not enough howevor to
change the rosult. Tho bill passed.
Jackson county' fruit growers may
bo interested to know a bill has pass

ufacturers of spray dope to pay a li

the state of Orogon. Tho moasuro Is
designed to protoct the purchaser
from fraud and insures tho efficacy

All legislatures are rushed during
the final week but the congestion this

MEDFOftD MAIL TRIBUNE,
upper house to be in perfect accord
with the governor and Btralnlng every
effort to give him what h wants.
Th Intimation, tactfully expressed,
was that tho governor did not know
and does not know just what he
wants, and has himself been respon
sible for tho last minute congestion.
There is probably considerable
truth to this contention. The situa
tion is (his: Governor Piorce is not
a detail man. He is perfectly sincere
in his demand for tax reduction, but
when It comes to tho' fino technical
points whereby such reduction may
be attuiuod, he is rather at sea. He
has to depend upon outside advice
and there is no unanimity among the
outsiders. But moro important still
Is the political equation.
Governor Pierce wants to be In a
position to blame the legislature if
future 'events demonstrate that his
campaign promises are not going to
be fulfilled, that is not fulfilled
sufflcently to satisfy the voters. The
legislature on the other hand, wants
to be in a position to blame the gov
ernor; they want to give the gov
ernor what ho demands, and put the
responsibility squarely up to him.
As a result although on the sur
faco there Is perfect harmony between
the legislature and the administration-
in fact a suspicious excess ot
It there is underneath considerable
friction. Tako consolidation, for ex
ample. It is au open secret that
Governor Pierce's endorsement of the
Hall consolidation was merely poll
tics, a paymon to Hall for his re
tirement from the gubernatorial con
test. Nevertheless tho defeat ot this
measure has been used by somo of
tho governor's closo friends, in a
fashion which suggests that no mat
ter what consolidation Is effected the
governor will be in a position to
claim that in the defeat of the Hall
measure ho was denied the tools he
requested.
The political ramifications in such
a situation are obvious. Moreover
Governor Flerte undoubtedly real
izes now that consolidation will not
materially decrease tho administra
tive expenses, although it may in
crease administrative efficiency. Un
der the circumstances it would sur
prise no ono ir the entire program ot
consolidation, in tho rinal show
down Is thrown into the discard, and
with this probability in mind bath
the governor and the legislature are
maneuvering to put tho blamo upon
tho other.
It is a very amusing situation. It
is also a very confused and compli
cated ono. No one can predict the
outcome. But thin much is certain.
Governor Pierco is the master ot
them all when practical politics are
concerned. If he loses It will bo be
cauBO the situation offers no cards
with which he could win.
Tho hotiBO forced Cowglll to bring

less a family quarrel induced by out-J
sidors who don't like White. They
claim he 1b given a life job by the
present statute and tho measure
would put his removnl up to the gov
ernor. Whlto on tho other hand
claims ho hasn't a life job, that he
is now subject to removal ,and that
thd right against him Is morely a
Bponsiracy on tho part or his per

His Attitude of Study While
Reading Law.
It Is inevitable that tho growing
appreciation of Lincoln sho.uld find
expression In poetry. Only tho poet
can . gather up the feelings of a
grateful world of people. As tho
passing yeurs bear him farther and
farther from us in time, the poets
bring him nearer and nearer to us
In spirit.
Not that there is a decline in Lin
coln prose literature. By no menns!
Kvcry year -brings new books and a
flood of articles, many of which re
flect new light on matters of historic
significance regarding Lincoln.
Ono of the most Interesting of this
year's productions Is an nrtlele by
Wm. L. Stldger on "The Lincoln Tri
ology of Literature." Mr. Stidgcr
makes a distinct contribution to Lin
coln lltoraturc in giving to the pub
lic for tho first tmio that he calls
tho stronges tand shortest poem of
nil tho thousands that have been
written on Lincoln. It is a couplet by
Joaquin Miller, written at tho re
quest of the keeper of the Lincoln
Memorial Tomb nt Springfield, from
whom Mr. Stldger secured It for pub
lication. It is nn amazingly reveal
ing summnry of Lincoln's character
istics. Hero It is, copied by Mr.'
Stldger frunt tho original in Joaquin
Miller's own handwriting:
IJncoln.
By Joniiuln Miller.
The strength of Hercules,
Tho sense of SocrateB!
Another Interesting fonture of this
article is that Mr. Btldgor points out
that any library of Lincoln literature
must Include, the literature Lincoln
liver, tho lltcrnturo ho wrote himself,
and the literature written about hint.
Tho literature which Lincoln lived
is named "Tho Short Shelf of Books,"
which was tnndo up of tho following:
tho Bible. Aesop's Funics. Robinson
Crusoe, Pilgrim's Progress, a history
of the United States, nnd Wccnis' Life
of Washington, all of which Lincoln
literally absorbed In his youth, read
ing them again and again becauso he
had nothing else to read. 1
Mr. Stldger snsy: "Ills speeches,
his letters, nnd his conversation
throughout Ills llfetlmo were flowers
blossoming out of tho rich soil ot the
Hlblo iind these few great books in
which he lived us a boy. His figures
of speech, his simplicity of expres
sion, his dignity of language, his
loftiness of symbol nro all due to
his having saturated himself with the
languago of the Bible. T!io litera
ture of the Bible was Lincoln's
cvery-duy speech!"
Under the beading. "Tho Litera
ture Ho Wrote Himself," it Is point
ed out that Lincoln was a poet. Some
times. in fact most often he was
not conscious of tho poetic style of
his language, as is illustrated by a
quatrain from the Gettysburg ad
dress: But in a larger sense
Wo cannot dedicate
We cannot consecrate.
We ennnot hallow this ground.
Also, by tho following four lines
from the second inuugural!
Fondly do we hope,
Fervently do we pray
That this mighty scourge of war
May speedily pass away.
And. by way of further Illustration,
Mr. Stldger gives us the following
beautiful blank verse:
With malice toward none.
With charity for nil;
With firmness In the right
As tied gives us to see the right,
Ik'I us strive on to finish
The work which wo aro In:
To hind up the nation's wounds:
To care for him who shall have borne
The brunt of the battle;
And for his widow and his orphans.
To do all that may achieve nnd
cherish
A .lust ami lusting peace
Among ourselves
And with all nations.
Mr. Stldger takes Marlon Mills
Miller's suggestion In "The Poet's
Lincoln" nnd arranges the Gettys
burg speech In verse form, the first
nnd last of which Is ns follows:

J 1 Whimsical Verse From His Copy Book.
Our fathers brought forth
Upon this continent
A new nation,
Conceived in liberty.
And dedicated to the proposition
That all men are created equal.
That from these honored dead
we take increased devotion to that
cause
For which they gave
The last full, measure of devotion;
That we hero highly resolve
That theso dead shall not have died
in vain;
That this nation, under God,
Shall have a new bli-h of freedom:
And' thnt government of tho people,
By the people,' and for, tho people -Shall
not perish from the earth!
Mr. Stidgcr .quotes four avowedly
and deliberately metrical pieces writ
ten by Lincoln, one of which reflects
nn early manifestation of -Lincoln
humor. It is from his schoolboy note
book, says Miss T.nbell:
Abraham Lincoln -
His hand uml pep, . s
Ho will bo good,
. But God knows when.
m
Tho liternturc about Lincoln is so
voluminous that Mr. Stldger con
tents himself with merely quitlng
the best titles, pointing out, how
ever, that the library of congress
contains over fifteen hundred books
written on Lincoln. Another inter
esting fact brought out . Is that not
only is -American- Lincoln literature
being translated Into many foreign
languages, but that foreign writers
are producing Lincoln litorature . of
merit, as. for example: "Tho Drink
water Drama," and "The Lift of Lin
coln" by Lord Charwood.
John Phillip Newman said of Lin
coln: "Here Is one more honored
than any other man whilo living,
moro revered when dying, nnd des
tined to be loved to tho last syllabic
of recorded time." And, ns pointed
out beforo, this lovo nnd devotion for
"Tho Man of tho Ages" must find its
supreme expression In poetry. The
following, by Thomas Curtis Clark,
published. In the Christian Century,
speaks for us all:
Tho Miracle.
Tho wild Kentucky hills were touched
. of Ood, .
And lo! A child was born; his sires,
unknown,
Dreamed not that God would for
their tears atono
By raising from their midst a king.
The sod
On which they walked was cursed to
them,
Begrudging them their bread, for all
their toll:
But it was holy ground; for from that
soil
Should como a chosen ono; the
diadem
Upon his brow should bo no piece of
gold.
But, like his lowly Lord's, a thorny
crown.
Upon his cross he died; tliey took
him down.
And lo! They found, beforo the day
was old.
That they had crucified thei' one
true friend.
Despite their bntc, he loved them lo
tho end. -
And this by the snmo author:
At GcntiTYlUe.
From theso dark streets named forth
a brilliant light,
This miry clay produced a mighty
tree.
From this rude town emerged the
bravest knight
That ever fought for human liberty.

Amid these shacks, where giant rats

Perhaps from heaven a high, pro

In another publication I find some
verses entitled "The Lincoln Spring,"
by Wm. L. Stldger, from whose pro
lific pen, I have already quoted at
length. Accompanying tho poem is
the statement that on the farm where
Lincoln was born, llodgenville, Ky.,
is a beautiful spring of crystal-clear
water flowing out of a cavo under a
great oak tree. From tho picture of
tho spring one can imaginu that Lin
coln often spent hours in study and
reverie here, as well as slaking his
thirst from Its cool water. But let
the poet tell tho story:
The Lincoln Spring.
There's a flow of crystal water frqm
a hlllsldo far away
In the southland where our Lincoln
' came to birth one fateful day;
There Kentucky fields nro sunny.
and the happy bluebirds sing.
In tho trees . above the hillside by a
cuvo-born, oooling spring.
Bending low lo reach its waters in
tho days of long ago
Lincoln's lips were kissed with cool
ing in its crystal depths and flow;
Lincoln's soul was washed with sun
shino; Lincoln's mind was left as
clean
As tho, shadow of his figure in llio
water's rippling sheen.
Other springs were on tho hillside of
the lowly Lincoln's youth
And ho drank with wistful wonder
from Pierian springs of truth;
For he drunk from books and people;
and he drank from mother-love;
Theh he drnnk his fill of worshipping
the Father-heart above.
Other springs were on tho hillsides,
nnd he -drank with holy glee
From tho springs of lovo and laugh
ter; lowly life and liberty;
Drank lie deep of field and flower;
- drank he deep of star and tree;.
Filled his soul with Bible lyrics:
drank the cup of destiny.
Other springs were on the mlllsides
of .this eager, wistful life;
Springs ot sympathy nnd yearning
for the humble brother's strife;
Springs that had their crystal
sources where the ancient sages
trod: '
Springs that leapt in light and living
from the mighty soul of Ood!
Surely these are sufficient lo
quicken our minds Into n great ap
preciation of those who have caught
up our fcellngrf nnd expressed them
for us as most of us could not for
ourselves, but I quote one more. It
was evidently Inspired by that saying
of John T. Morse's: "Lincoln stands
apart In striking solitude." Tho poem
finds concrete expression In St. Oau
den's statute of Lincoln.,
