Gen. Burdett's Recollections.
Gen Burdett was the last speaker OF
the evening.
Il would like to make a set speech
tonight he announced. but am asked
to tell what l know of Lincoln, because
the affection of the people for him is SO
great that they long to hear aught that
may be known of him. In 1886 and 1881
spent the winter in Springfield. / often
saw him and sat near him during that
winter. I heard his stories. The i'm
preston that he was largely a story
teller is wrong. AS One of old. he spoke
in parallels. The stories told truth
and the listeners saw the point of the
parallels
Gen. Burdett declared that pictures OF
Lincoln showing his hat sQuarely on his
head were not correct. Lincoln wore his
tall hat on the back part of his head
he said, lat an angle Of 4o degrees to
the rear He described meeting he at
tended at which Lincoln spoke. and he
said that Lincoln answered the criticisms
of a newspaper by parallels. The proud
est honor o: his life, said Gen. Burdett
was when he cast his ballot as presi-
Dental elector for Abraham Lincoln for
a second term as President of the Re
public.
Following the singing Of america by
the entire audience the benediction was
pronounced by DIR. Guthrie.

my friends. but there is great need that
we return to the old and we'll tried prn-
ciples of our government as laid down
by its founders and interpreted by Lin
coin: that we give to the principle of gov
eminent of the people. by the people. for
the people new Interpretation and new
meaning for the new and unprecedented
circumstances of our political life Again.
there is great need that we return to the
political principle of Lincoln in the man
ner of the exercise of the control of gov
eminent.
That principle demands that federal
control, that indeed all governmental CON
troll, shall be exercised by processes OF
law rather than by administrative and eX-
ecutive discretion. There is funda
mental political objection to commissions
and there exists no desire to minimize
their great usefulness when legally ere
ated and their duties lawfully defined. But
a commission should be an instrumental Ii
ty merely in the application of law. 1t
should not be empOw cred either by law or
executive order, to administer its own dis
cretionary practical judgments, as il 1t
were either law or above the law"

than jefferson. Jefferson's democracy
extended to a willingness to trust the
plain people in their home localities, but
not when it came to the functions of adj

want to trust them there. But Lincoln
knew them and believed them and trust

progression was the common sense OF the

Closing with tribute to the honor,
justice. uprightness and intelligence of the
plain people. the speaker gave an apotheo-

addresses Of the martyrd President He
spoke of Lincoln's modesty. shown by the
speech at Gettysburg. when he said. THE

what we say here" He recalled the pa

he made as he left Springfield late in Feb
ruary of 1861. I'm going to assume the
responsibilities Of President of these

biennial elections on the ground of

be. endless turmoil.
