~ EyL INCOLN'S unique methods
"D of campaigning are thus
AA described by an eye-wit-
HAWl ness. This was on the oc-
vi casion of his first nomina-
~&/ ton al a legislative candi-
~ date:
"Mr. Lincoln's first ap-
'pearance on the stump, in the
course OF the canvass, was at
Pappsville. about eleven miles west
of Springfield, upon the occasion
of a public sale by the firm Of
Poog C KNAPP. The sale over, speech
making was about to begin, when Mr..
Lincoln observed strong symptoms of
~inattention In his audience, who had
taken that particular moment to en-
gage In what Mr.. James A. Herndon
pronounces a general fight Lincoln
saw hat n of his friends was suffer-
ing more than he liked in the melee;
shouldered them sternly away from
his man, until he met a fellow who re-
fused to fall back: him he seized by
the nape OF his neck and the stat of
his breeches, and tossed him ten or
twelve feet easily After this episode
-as characteristic of him as of the
times-he mounted the platform, and
delivered, with awkward modesty, the
following speech:
Gentlemen and Fellow Citizens, I
presume you all know who am. ! am
humble Abraham Lincoln. / have
been solicited by many friends to be-
come a candidate for the legislature.
My politics are short and sweet, like
the old woman's dance. / am in favor
of a national bank. l am in favor of
the internal-improyement system and
a high protective tariff. These are my
sentiments and political principles. If
elected, I shall be thankful; il not, 1t
will be all the same
I'm these few sentences Mr.. Lincoln
adopted the leading principle Of the
Whig party-Clay's American Sys-
tenn in full. In his view, as we shall
see by another paper from him when
again q candidate in 1884, the internal
Improvement system required the dis
tribution of the proceeds Of the sales
of the public lands amongst the states.
He says nothing of South Carolina, OF
notification, of disunion; and on these
subjects it is quite probable his views
we're like Mr.. Webster's, and his sym
pathies with Jackson. The opinions
announced in this speech, on all the
subjects touched by the speaker, were
as emphatically Wing as they could
be made in words"
Reporter and farmer. [volume] (Webster, Day County, Dakota [S.D.]) 188?-1946, 1902-02-13

little holder than the rest, but evident
ly feeling that he spoke for the whole,
cried out, This is ~cowardly on your
part. Lincoln!' Whereupon the tall
captains figure stretched a few inches
higher again. He looked down upon
these varlets who would have MUIR
dered a d~efenceless old Indian, and
now quailed before his single hand,
with lofty contempt. The oldest Of his
acquaintances, even Bill Green, who
saw him grapple Jack Armstrong and
defy the DULLES at his back, never saw
him so much aroused" before. IF
any man thinks l am a coward, let
him test It," said he. Lincoln" re-
sponded a new voice, you are larger
and heavier than we are.' This you
car guard against; choose your wea-
pons," returned the rigid captain.
Whatever may be said of Mr.. Lin
coins choice Of means for the preser-
walton of military discipline, it was
certainly very effectual in this case.
There was no more disaffection in his
camp. and the word coward" was
never coupled with his name again.
Mr.. Lincoln understood his men bet
ter than those who would be disposed
to criticise his conduct. He has often
declared himself, that his life and
character were both at stake, and
would probably have been lost, had he
not at that supremely critical moment
forgotten the oficer and asserted the
man. To have ordered the offenders
under arrest would have created a
formidable mutiny; to have tried and
punished them would have been i'm
possible. They could scarcely be call
ed soldiers; they were merely armed
citizens, with a nominal military or
ganization. They were but recently
enlisted, and their term Of service
was Just about to expire. Had he
preferred charges against them, and
offered to submit their differences to
a court Of any sort, it would have
been regarded as an act of personal
p~usillanimity, and his efficiency would
have been gone forever.

IN 1861, the arrangements

naming between that date
and the 4th. of March with
a grand tour from state to state and
city to city. One Mr.. Wood. recon
mended by Senator Seward" was the
chief manager. He provided special
trains to be preceded by pilot engines
all the way through.
It was a gloomy day; heavy clouds
fioated overhead, and a cold rain was
falling. Long before eight o'clock, a
great mass OF people had collected at
the station of the Great Western rail-
way to witness the event of the day.
At precisely five minutes before eight,
Mr.. Lincoln, preceded by Mr.. Wood,
emerged from a private o in the
depot building, and passed slowly to
the car, the people falling back respect
possible shaking his hands. Having
finally reached the train, he assembled
the real platform, and, facing about to
the throng which had closed around
him, drew himself up to his full
height, removed his hat, and stood for
several seconds in profound silence.
His eye roved sadly over that sea OF
upturned faces, and he thought he read
In them again the sympathy and
friendship which he had often tried,
and which he never needed more than
he did then. There was an unusual
CULVER in his lip, and a still more I'M
usual tear on his shriveled cheek. His
solemn manner, his long silence, were
as full of melancholy %eloquence as any
words he could have uttered. What
did he think Of? OF the mighty changes
which had lifted him from the lowest
TO the highest estate on earth? OF the
weary road which had brought him to
this lofty summit? OF his pool mother
lying beneath the tangled underbrush
In a distant forest? OF that other
grave in the quiet Concord cemetery?
Whatever the particular character of
his thoughts. 1t is evident that they
were retrospective and painful. To
those who were anxiously waiting to
catch words upon which the fate OF
the nation might hang, 1t seemed long
until he had mastered his feelings suf-
ficiently to speak. At length he began
in a husky one OF voice, and slowly
and impressiveIy delivered his farewell
to his neighbors. Initiating his exam
pie, every man in the crowd stood with
his head uncovered i'll the fast-falling
rain.
~"Friends-No one who has never
been placed in a like position can TN
derstand my feelings at this hour, nor
the oppressive sadness | feel at this
parting. For more than a quarter OF

ceived nothing but kindness at your

youth, until now / am an old man.

we're born; and here one OF them lies
buried. To you, dear friends, ! W

now upon my mind. To-day l leave

every heart in the audience was
hushed at the spectacle. After repeat
ed efforts, he found it impossible to
speak, and strobe away, openly and
bitterly sobbing, to the widows car
riage, in which he was driven from
the scene. Bowlin Greene had loaned
Mr.. Lincoln books from their earliest
acquaintance, and on one occasion had
taken him to his home, and cared for
him with the solicitude OF a devoted
friend through several weeks of great
suffering and peril.
