Lincoln, the lawyer and orator of Llncoln-Dongln- s debute fame; and moat of all Abrnhnin ' Lincoln, the President of the United States all are familiar figure in American history and well known to most Americans. Itut there Is another Lincoln which Is comparatively unknown and that Is Lincoln, the legislator. That little known period In life has been recalled recently In the discovery by Miss Margaret C. Norton, superintendent of the archives department of the Illinois state library at SprlngGeld, of tlie original manuscript of a piece of legislation sMWsorcd by Lincoln, a resolution (reproduced above) which he Introduced into the lower house of the Illinois ft ale assembly on December 2, is 10. It reuds as follows : Resolved, That the Committee on Kilucatlon be Instructed to Inquire Into the expediency of providing by law for tlie examination as to their qualifications of persons offering themselves as and that no tearher rhall receive any part of the Public School Funda who shall not have passed such examination: and that they report by bill or otherwise In view of the astounding rise of Lincoln front the obscurity of the Illinois backwoods to the Presidency of the United States and Ills subsequent deathless fame. It Is Interesting to note that his first attempt to win sn elective office met with fullure. On March I), 1832, there bad appeared on the etreets of the little town of New hundblll Salem, 111., a crudely-printe- d circular announcing the candidacy of A. Lincoln, the clerk In OfTntt's store, for the legislature from Sungamon county. Although lie was running as a Whig at s time when Andrew Juckson was President and the Democrats were the furiously Intolerant majority" In Illinola, as in other parts of the nation. Lincoln made no reference to nntloiiul politic In his announcement. Most of Ids statement was confined to a discueslou of plans fur Improving the navigability of the Snngnmou river, then n (tot topic In his district.

PARK CITY Utah's coal companies produced more than 4,800,000 tons of coal during the past year, or about 800,000 tons more than the output of 1936, according to figures compiled by the Utah Coal Producers' association. The output of seventeen of the large companies aggregated 4,733.873 tons. As emergency rates to Colorado were not renewed by the Interstate commerce commission on January 15, ship ments of fuel to that state have virtually come to an end.
