WHAT IF LINCOLN HAD LIVED !
Ninety eUrht years ago today at an
obscure nojk in "t">ld Kaintuck'' was
born of humble psireutage Abraham
Lincoln, *ho developed into one of the
greatest and grandest characters the
world ha< produced -one whose name
is something with which conj urers are
wont to work their magic, notwith
standing that hi- life had been but half
lived when he was called hence -eyrh?
' bullet trf an assassin.
And this last thought recalls a won
drous topic for speculative deductions.
Had Lincoln lived through the reco n
struction period and continued to grow
as he grew during the dark days of
rebellion and as one of Lincoln's
mould must have grown? what would
have been the result to American his
tory and to the name and fame of one
whom many regard as America's grea t
est statesmen? W ould he have made
impo:ent the sectional hatred of the
Stevenses and Stantons and Mortons
and Wades? Would he hav? softened
the iron heel of oppression that was
placed upon the neck of the prostrate
South? Would he have nrpped in tho bud
the < unit teg Tames of sectionalismjbefort
the conflagration that required four de
cades in which to burn itself out had
burst forth?
Had he done this would he have re
tained the love and confidence of those
who followed the starrv union through
four years of war? Would his name
have been cherished in the literature
and heart of the North as it has been?
Those who have studied Lincoln most
and who love his memory best will have
little difficulty in answering these
questions in the affirmative. What
Johnson attsmpted. narrowly escaping
impeachment for his pains. Lincoln
would have accomplished Probably
he would have been reviled by bitter
partizans for a'time. Some, no doubt,
at the North would, have turned his
picture to the wail. Vet, long ago his
revilers wouid have regretted their
folly anu the portrait of the sweetly
sad but strong face would have been
restored to its place of honor. In ad
dition, the race would have been
soared ? jch aching and much remorse.

Former President Cleveland has beeD
elected president o; the Association of
Life insurance Presidents. The object
is to cooperate for all kinds of reform
for the purpose of increasing dividends
and the consequent reduction of the
co?t of life insurance.
While W. W. B. Mclnnes was defeat
ed at the recent election in Vancouver,
he reduced the conservative majority
of the previous provincial election from
5..*00 to l.OOii That was going some,
though it was not quite enough.
l9n't there something just a little in
congruous in the mayor sad school
directors of an American city going to
Washington to consult with the
president as to the manner in which
they shall perform their duties ?
VAULT CREEK IS
IMAM'S RICHEST
Late news from Fairbanks is to the
effect that Vault creek is the richest in
the district. The paystreak has been
discovered and it carries gravel which
pays from $4 to $10 to the pan. The
pay streak is wide. It is claimed the
creek is as rich as was Eldorado in the
Klondike.
TUGBOAT CAPTAIN
LOST OVERBOARD
Capt. Abbott, of the tug Katahoor
was washed overboard from his boat s
week ago Saturday and drowned. The
tug was going from Juneau to Tee
harbor. It was very rough and the
captain was at the wheel when last
seen. A member of the crew discover
ed the pilot house empty and a search
of the vessel failed to reveal the
captain. He had been carried out by i
sea.

i
The output of the Tanana camp for
the present winter and coming: summer !
?will aggregate {12.000,000 according to I
the estimate o( .1. L. Sale, who is in !
Skagway having arrived from Ka^r
banks by way of Dawson. Mr. Sale
says that the several new streams in > |
the Tanana are mostly deep, but that j
the extent of pay is being followed
more successfully than ever, and the
aggregate output will swell larger ;hU
year than ever.
Last year the output of tuc Tanana
reached a total ot $9,175,000.
"The pay this year," says Mr. Sale,
"is being traced largely down nlo new
regions. Notable in this respect is the j
extension of the paystreak into the1
Chatinika river. Cleary flows into the !
Chatinika, and the pay is being traced ^
right down Cleary into the Oiatinika
valley with such auccess that 1 believe j *
the future great returns of the cattp i *'
will be found in the Chatinika proper. ?
The favorable point there seems to be
that the Chatinika pay is confined to I
definite paystreak."
