4 Level President.

4 Level President.
81 have no quarrel with any Re
publican" says the President, "an,
the fact that II Republican differs
from me on one point should not di
vide us on others on which ",
agree" There is good deal o
wisdom, both worldly and celestial
in this position. Accompanied b,
II sincere purpose and Il hearty man
ner, it readily explains the success
OF the President in disarming oppo
sition. Were the President less
judicOus, less sincere, or less firm
he would be at war with his own
partyand his Administration would
be drifting to inevitable destruction
Conscious not only of the rectitud,
but of the wisdom OF his course
the President can afford to hc good
naturcd and patient. Hence he has
no quarrel with anybody, and AS il
takes two to make quarrel nobody
can have n quarrel with him. At
tacks on him or on his policy are
vain. He has no slick back He
sheds blows as a ducks back sheds
water.
The President is winning by tact.
Thousands of men fail just there.
Lincoln won by it. The AdamseS
failed for want of it. Wilson had
it. Sumner lacked it. 1t is better
than brains to the politician; it is
worth more than much of his knowl-
edge to the statesman. The man
of tact is harder to beat than any
other man, and if gets beaten he is
pretty certain To turn his defeat i'll
toa victory before his enemy knows
it. The opponents of the President
may as well give it up. He is a
man of destiny because he is a man
of tact. His whole life has been Il
steadily charging success. He has
thought, health, and patience be-
sides. He has endurance, and the
men who buffet him will die before
he dies. Says shrewd politician !:
"Hayes has his friends secure; now
he wants his enemies.' He will get
them. The latter fellows who think
they can worry him or trick him
will be dangling under his arms or
peeping from his coat pockets be-
fore they know it. He VIII use
them when he wants them, and they
will be harmless until he does use
them. "Honrst Ways wins the
people and trumps the politicians.
Tact never succumbS to trickerJ.-
