room for doubt that Abraham Lincoln
would have approved the policy Of
Mckinley and Roosevelt in maintain
ing our position as world power, in
increasing the size Of our navy so
that when we do intervene In inter
national affairs we may exercise an
influence commensurate with our
greatness as nation?
Finally, can there be any doubt
where Abraham Lincoln would have
stood in the issues which peculiarly
distinguish the administration OF
Theodore Roosevelt?
II refer to the struggle which he
and his administration have made
for the elimination from our business
and political fabric of the corrupt
ing influence Of the unlawful business
combinations and the demoralizing eff
feet Of dtsobedience to law by our
great railroad and transportation COM
panies.
''The one thing that distinguished
Lincoln in all his life was the con-
tention in favor of the equal admins
tration and protection of the laws.
From the soles Of his feet through
all that long frame to the top of his
nead ne was democrat in the true
sense of the word, and opposed to
privilege and class immunity.

HE was not an enemy to wealth
lawfully accumulated He welcomed
and encouraged internal improve.

prises and the combination Of capital,
but he always exalted in the consid-
GRAFTON Of every issue the rights of
the individual and especially of the
humber members of society who
were least able to protect them
selves.
Therefore, we may know with Ger.
tainty that cannot brook contradic-
ton that in the struggle to make all
business lawful, to take away from
great corporate combinations the II.
legal privileges and immunities that
official Investigations have shown in
many instances to prevail, Lincoln
would have made the same good fight
which has endeared Roosevelt to the
same plain people of the country who
upheld the hands of the martyred
president through all the great trials
Of his administration"
