by the Republicans OF the famous
Joint debates between Lincoln and
Douglas i'm 1858 concentrated a de-
feat. These two great champions of
Republicanism and Democracy were
candidates for the United States SEN
ate. Their Joint debates attracted the
attention OF the country to remark
able degree. But II was Mr.. Doug
las, and not MIR. Lincoln, that was
elected to the senate by the Legislature
chosen that year
Why then do the Republicans cele-
brate this great debate OF nearly forty
years ago? Why does the proud shaft
rise from Bunker Hill, a spot where the
patriot army was defeated and driven
from the field, after losing one OF Its
most cherished leaders? That. too,
commentaries a defeat.
Mr.. Lincoln was beaten In 1858. but
ne was elected president in 1860 He
was elected president In 1860 because
of the work ne did in 1853. But for the
fame acquired In his great contest with
the Little Giant" of Illinois. he would
not have received the Republican NOM
ination for the presidency. In that de-
feat he laid the foundation of all that
part Of his career which chiefly en-
deared him to his countrymen.
The patriot army was beaten at Bun
ker Hill, but II demonstrated in so tri-
umphant q manner it's capacity to
stand up against British regulars that
patriotic hearts everywhere took cour-
age. Instead of a encouragement. II
was an inspiration for the American
cause. And that cause which was lost
at Bunker Hill was ultimately trium-

There is a lesson in this for the day

what may prove a losing fight against
those who call themselves regulars"
They must make a good fight. for this
