Did Lincoln Say it.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer, after
trying for some time to answer IN
quiries regarding the occasion of Ab-
raham Lincoln's use of the words,
YOU can fool all the people some OF
the time and some ct the people all
of the time, but not all the people all
the time gives it up. Colonel Hay
was appealed to. but that blographer
OF President Lincoln had to acknoW-
ledge he never encountered the SEN
tence when making minute investigh-
tion Of Lincolns speeches, papers,
letters and recorded sayings. An Ohio
congressman who had been asked the
question referred the inquirer to the
library of congress, where if any
where. the information could be OBJ
tanned. The Washington Post re-
ports the result. Assistant Libra
r;an Spoiiord made written reply,
in which he says the sentence does
not occur in any of Lincoln's writ
ings. adding that Mr.. Nicolay, Lin
coins secretary and associate Of COL
onel John Hay in writing the elabo-
rate biography Of Lincoln told Spot
ford the alleged Lincoln saying was
spurious. Librarian Spofford says the
real author Of the popular sentence
was Phineas T. Barnun, the famous
Snowman, who "fooled the people"
more successfully than any other man
OF his time.
