word of violence or rancor--9ot phrase which,
after the cessation of hoStiities might return TO
embitter the defeated combatants or be resented
by their descendants!
This extraordinary forbearance of the Presi-
dent has often been spoken of as an amlabe
trait Of the man; but do we fully realize the
value to the nation Of this trait, and the worth
Of it's example in public leadership? After so
tremendous conflict, the world abroad wonders
at the uuiCkness of the return TO Sympathetic
relations-tO closer relations than eVer-betWeen
the sections lately at war. But we OF the
country know that the obstacles TO true union
after the war were not so much the events OF the
war-though some Of them naturally enough
left a trail of bitter resentment-as events sue
ceeding the conflict of years, in that period OF
governmental reconstruction when things We're
done In the name OF the dominant powers which
the South has found it hard to forget, and the
North ardently wishes could be blotted from all
remembrance.
IIncoln's attitude toward the South, when fully
comprehended helped to obliterate the acid
stains of the reconstruction period In other
words we are to-day d truly united country not
only because Lincoln conducted the war TO a
successful issue, but because of his wise and
tolerant and sympathetic leadership during that
war.-Richard Watson Glider, in The Century.
