A bird's-eye view of the Lincoln Birthplace Farm as It will look when
deyeloped by the Lincoln Farm Association.
LINCOLN FARM A880CIATI0N.
Opportunity to Help In Saving Lin
coln's Birthplace.
A college paper has no very broad
field in which to work, perhapB, but
such a movement as the one described
below, it is felt, ought to receive sup
port from every quarter. ThOBO read
ing Collier's Magazine are familiar
with the plan, for It has been exten
sively advocated In that publication,
as well as in others. Hero is another
good opportunity for Nebraska stu
dents to get in on a good thing.
The Lincoln Farm Association was
organised and incorporated under the
laws of the State of Now York early
in the month of February, 1906, by a
group of patriotic citizens, who be
lieved that tho people of our country
should, thru affiliating with this or
ganization, develop the farm in Larue
cOunty, Kentucky, on which Abraham
Lincoln was "born, into a national park.
The ossbclatlOn, prior to Its Incor
poration, acquired the title to thiB his
toric farm, consisting of one hundred
and ten acres. The association hopes
to develop tills property Into an at
tractive park, embellished by histor
ical museumB and properly monu
mented, so that It may be complete
for dedication on the twelfth day of
February, 1909, which will be the
centennial of the birth of the great
war President. The association has
already recovered the cabin in which
Lincoln was born.
The Lincoln Farm Association be
lieve that the work of building this
ftirm Into a national memorial should
be accomplished by the American peo
ple, and by their Individual contribu
tions, and not thru any appropriation
froni Congress, or thru the subsidy of
large private fortunes. It should ex
press the democratic sympathy and
loyalty of the American people for
and to this great President, who has
to fittingly been called the "first
American."
The Lincoln Farm Association is an
organization of American citizens to
which every one snail be entitled to
membership who contributes, thru the
gvneral fund for the preservation of
ihlB historic spot, any sum not less
than twenty-five t cents nor to exceed
twenty-,flye dollars. Every such sub
scribed shall be recorded in the mem
bership card catalogs, which will ulti
mately rest In a.place of honor and of

have invited, can do so by handing the
names t,o the committee in charge
or to Professbr Richards. T;he com
mlttee consists of Messrs. Schrleber,
Cramer, Mickey and Standeven.
public access In on of the historic
buildings to bo orected on tho farm.
Each subscriber shall receive, imme
diately upon tho receipt of hl8 dona
tion to the work of the association, a
handsomely engraved certificate of
membership in tho Lincoln Farm 'Asso
ciation, bearing on Its face a portrait
of Lincoln, a picture df tho cabin in
which h6 was born, and of tiro White
House at Washington. It will also
bear the member's name and tho auto
graphs of the- officers and trustees of
of the association.
Afnorican youths have turned long
ing eyes toward the holy places 6f Eu
rope, and visited tho birthplaces of
Robert Burns and Schiller, tho tombs
of Walter Scott and Victor Hugo, and
the millennial monument of King Al
fred at Winchester; while the birth
place of our matchless American the
fatrong-handed, clear-headed, and great
hearted Lincoln has been left, after
Us acres have been impoverished by
carelesB tillage, to become a humilia
tion to the poet and the historian, and
tho butt of ridicule to the- irreverent.
Pigs and cattle have reduced tho basin
of tho beautiful spring to a mud-pud
dle; vandal hands have carried off the
humble cabin wherein a giant soul
was born, and utter neglect surrounds
iho first home of the great American
"Man of Sorrows." ,
Realizing this neglect, and that this
farm birthplace was to be treated with
still greater Indignity, by the exploita
tions of speculators, for vulgar show
and unwholesome popularity, tho asso
ciation secured the farm under the auc
tioneer's hammer, and now holds it In
trust for the nation.
It Is tho solo purpose of the associa
tion to help the American people to
their own. The historic ground will be
owned and cared for by the Lincoln
Farm Association's solf-perpetuatlng
committee of patriotic citizens. To
them will be entrusted the expenditure
of the subsidy which tho members of
tho Lincoln Farm Association shall
raise.
Tho officers of tho Lincoln Farm As
sociation are as follows:
Joseph W. Folk, Governor of Mis
souri, president; Joseph H. Choate,
Ex-Ambassador to England; Henry
Watterson, Editor Louisville "Courier
Journal"; -Cardinal Gibbons, Arch
bishop of Baltimore.
Tho office of the association Is at
74 Broadway, Now York.
