President Roosevelt's Tribute to Lincoln
Expressive Appreciation of His Character

upon the altar OF freedom. Yours
very sincerely and respectfully.
"A. LINCOLN"
Any man who has occupied the office OF
president realizes the Incredible amount of
administrative work with which the presi-
dent has to deal sven In times OF peace. He
is of necessity a very busy man, a much
driven man, from whose mind there can
never be absent for many minutes at a time
the consideration OF some problem OF inn
portance, or OF some matter of less impor-
n such circumstance It Is not easy for
a president even in times OF peace to turn
from the affairs that are OF moment to all
the people and consider affairs that are Of
moment to but one person. While this Is
true of times OF peace. IL Is OF course in
finltely more true OF times OF war. No
president who has ever sat In the White
House has borne the burden that Lincoln
bore. or been under the ceaseless strain
which he endured. II did not let up by day
or by night. Ever he had to consider prob
lens OF the widest Importance. ever to run
risks OF the greatest magnitude; ana ever
through and across his plans TO meet these
great dangers and great responsibilities was
shot the wool OF an Infinite number OF small
worries and small annoyanees. He worked
out his great task while Increasingly beset
by the need OF attending as best he could
TO a multitude Of small tasks. II is a touch
ing thing that the great leader. while thus
driven and absorbed. could yet 80 OAan
Omaha daily bee., 1909-02-07

turn aside for the moment to do some deed
OF personal kindness; and 1t Is a fortunate
thing for the nation that in addition to
doing so well each deed, great or small. he
possessed that marvellous gift OF expression
which enabled him quite unconsciously TO
choose the very words best fit to commemo-
rate each deed. His Gettysburg speech and
his second inaugural are two OF the half
dozen greatest speeches ever made-I am
tempted to call them the two greatest ever
made. They are great In their wisdom. and
dignity. and earnestness, and In a loftiness
OF thought and expression which makes
them akin to the utterances OF the prophets
OF the Old Testament. In a totally different
way, but in strongest and most human
fashion, such utterances as his answer TO
the serenaders Immediately after his second
election. and this letter which 1 have quoted
above. appeal to US and make our hearts
thrill. The mother 70 whom he wrote stood
In one sense on a loftier plane OF patriotism
than the mighty president himself. Her
memory and the memory Of her sons whom
she bore to die for the union should be kent
green in our minds; for she and they. in
life and death. typified all that is best and
highest in our national existence. The
deed itself and the words OF the great man
which commemorate that deed should form
one OF those herftages for all Americans
which 1t IL Of inestimable consequence that

Janus were thrown open TO the civil war.
As the moment Of parting approached the

Shipping different gods. Typical OF the dis
putants were jefferson Davis and Lyman
~Trumbull, men OF equally strong convic-
lions and high breeding. and moved equally
by love of country as they understood the
term. Davis made three speeches. two Of
which were on the general subject OF de-
bate and one his farewell to the senate.
The first, slngularly enough. was called
out by a resolution offered by a fellow
southerner and democrat. Green Of Mis-
souri, December 10. 1850. who proposed that

maintain our equality and community
rights: and the me ans in the one case or
the other must be such as each can con-
troll"
This was an explicit confirmation Of what
Lircoln. In his COOPER institute speech a
year earlier. had said was the chief diff
ficulty Of the north: must not only
let them the south alone, but we must
somehow convince them that we do let
them alone"
The next step toward compromise which

refused to acquiesce In the bred Scott de-
cision. 1t had stood as a constant menace
region south OF % degrees 30 minutes. The
practical question was: What would hap
pen II the party should now withdraw its
opposition to slavery there? Mr.. Seward
did not address himself to this branch Of
the subject. The effect OF his speech, how
ever. was to conv'nce many newspare rs and
people that he would vote for the Critten-
den measure In the end. That he did not
vote on it at all must be ascribed to the
fact that he knew that no compromise on
the territorial question would be consid-
cred by Lincoln.
The pages OF the Congressional Globe Of
180O-61 make the two most intensely inter-
estinE political volumes in our country's
history. They embrace the last words that
the north and south had to say to each
other before the doors Of the temple OF

there should be an armed police force pro-
vided by federal authority to guard where
necessary the dividing line between the
s~lave-holding and the nonslave-holding
states. to preserve the peace and prevent
invasions and to execute the fugitive slave
law. This scheme Davis considered a duack
remedy and he declared that he could not
give II his support because 1t looked to the
employment OF force TO bring about a con-
dition of security which ought tc exist
without force. The present want Of Sc
curity. he commended. could not be cured by
an armed patrol. but only by a change Of
sentiment in the majority section Of the
union toward the minority section. Upon
this text he argued in a dispasslonete way
for a considerable space, ending in these
words:
This union is dear to me as a union OF
fraternal states. II would lose its value to
Omaha daily bee., 1909-02-07

me II I had to regard II a. a union held to-
gether by physical force. I would be happy
to know that every state now felt that fra
ternity which made this union possible; anu
II that evidence could go out, IL evidence
satisfactory to the people of the south
could be given that that feeling existed In
the hearts Of the northern people. you
might burn your statute books and we
would cling TO the union stlll. But It Is
because OF their conviction that hostility
and not fraternity now exists In the hearts
OF the people that they are looking 20 their
reserved rights and to their independent
powers for their own protection. II there

found that bills which should be

printer, were coming in at 5000 or so,

they were cut down to reasonable
price. 1t was peculiar that these bills
