Lincoln's Centennial.

A national movement is well under way for fitly celebrating the one hundredth anniversary of the blith cf Abraham Lincoln. The public sc iocls| are busy preparing su table programs for the occasion. Great comine'Ci 1 organization and societies cf e e y description ape making extensile preparations to honor the man, bom in the most humble ci cumst. nc s a human being could be, bi t, becau e of his great ability and grand character died the noblert example of al th t makes up true, Christian manhood. State Superintendent of Schools Cotton has sent out to all scho Is si ggestion for a most fitting celebration of this occasion. The tale of LJnclon’s li’e is a sad one. He man’fested the moct su' - lime kindness towards a 1 pe p'.e f fid all things; h-s love for bis f iends and enemies a ike was unboun ed. Yet his life was one of indtser b 'ble hardships, and he was the victim cf selfishness and cruelty of the weaker humanity with whom he came in contact. No wonder he is loved, almost worshipped by his counti y. Sti 1, great as is the reverence for him, it is doubtful if it can ever equal the sacrifices and hardships he endured for us. But it is all we can do, and it is gratifying that the love for L ncoln grows greater e eiy day and that it is not bounded by any clashes, creeds, or sections. Hi violent death was such a herr ble contrast to his gentle life. The Savior of the Nation, the Emancipator of a Human Race, this, beloved man's last official act was to sacr.fice bis own convenience to work late his 1 s day on earth to save a man who was condemned to be shot, although the pardon could have been put off till the next day. An hour later, Lincoln, himself was dying from an assassin’s bullet.
