SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1926 When the high heart we mapify, And the sure vision celebrate, And worship greatness passing by, Orientation — "From Drinkwater" —From Drinkwater's Abraham Lincoln. UNITED WE STAND Yesterday was the birthday of Abraham Lincoln, and as one unit the entire nation paid tribute to this great man. The year 1927 finds his memory firmly enshrined in the hearts of his countrymen of the North, of the South, of the East and of the West. Thirty years ago this was not true. Thirty years ago the southern people regarded Lincoln's birthday with mingled feelings. Some thought of him as having been a great leader and a man of broad vision and human understanding. To others he seemed to have been the supreme combination of all that was evil and hateful to any Southerner. For the majority of the southern people of Civil war times knew only that Lincoln was president. All their hatred of the invading armies became concentrated upon him. The South bore the brunt of the war, so that the memory remained long after the North had forbidden. But with each succeeding year the little army of men in gray, which have dwindled and dwindled, and their children, and their children's children, have come to see Lincoln in the dawn light of a new day. Yesterday was the birthday of Abraham Lincoln, and as one unit the entire nation paid tribute to this great American. HENRY WATTERSON ON LINCOLN "Bern as lowly as the Son of God, reared in peercury and squaller, with no glaem of light nor fair surroundings, it was reserved for this strange being, late in life, without name or fame, or seeming preparation, to be snatched from obscurity, raised to supreme command at a supreme moment, and entrusted with the destiny of a nation. Where did Shakespeare get his genius? Where did Mozart get his music? When hand smote the lyre of the Scottish plowman? God, alone; and as surely as those were raised by God, inspired of God was Abraham Lincoln, and a thousand years hence no story, no tragedy, no epic poem will be filled with greater wonder than that which tells of his life and death. If Lincoln was not inspired of God, then there is no such thing on earth as a special providence or the interposition of divine power in the affairs of men." CAPITALIST OR LABORER? CAPITALIST OR LABORER? The recent raise in salary for the president of the U.S. Army to $12,000 or $12,000 a year, raises the question "When does a man cease to become a laborer and become a capititol?" The action of the mine workers in voting this increase in salary to their leader would seem to indicate that prosperity has reached its acme in the coal industry at least. Despite the high prices for coal, the public would probably welcome such a situation, for it would indicate that an amenable adjustment between the miners and the operators. The imminence of a strike in April, however, dispels such optimism. Possibly a time may come when all workers may receive such enormous wages as $12,000 per year, an income TO AND FRO ABOUT THE CITY Shakespeare is dast, and will not come to question from him Aven toon, And Socrates and Shelley keep An Attic and Italian sleep. They will not see us, nor again Shall indignation light the birds Where Lincoln on his woodland height Tell out the spring and winter nights John Drinkwater They see not, But, O Christianity, who throng Holmberg and Fifth Aurea, May you not meet, in spite of death, A traveller from Nazareth? bigger than that of many so-called capitalists, but until that wage becomes general, it seems inadvisable for the union leader to accept it while矿者 are still underpaid. The recipient of a $12,000 a year salary soon loses the worker's psychology. His necessary contacts with wealthy operators brings him more and more into the atmosphere of prosperity, and his feeling of solidarity with the miners is necessarily weakened. The miners' union under Lewis has veered decidedly to the right. A number of communists and left wing adherents were excluded from the convention just closed, and Lewis has become established as a virtual dictator. Whereas a few years ago the union controlled 70 per cent of the miners in the bituminous industry, it today exerts influence over less than half. It may be that a $12,000 a year leader will prove the best for the miners and the coal industry, but experience has shown that when a man receives a capitalist's income, he usually acquires the capitalist's psychology.
