Concerning the Living Lincoln.

Concerning the Living Lincoln.
1T was my pleasure to have known
President Lincoln personally" said
Alexander Mcdowell. clerk Of the
house. Il talked with him on several
occasions. in Washington and at the
front. and while I knew him well
do not natter myself that he knew me
well. for there was only one Of him
and there were forty millions Of me.
What struck me above all else was his
simplicity and everyday common
sense.
He met all men as equals, not in
. patroniling way. but in q way that
said a. plain as words. We are all
Of one blood. and brothers. He was
q great man and he was the only one
in all the land that did not know It.
HE always remembered his early
struggles and poverty. and with a sym
patty born OF them was ever ready to
give q helping hand to those compelled
to travel the road that he had been
compelled to travel in bis youth and
early manhood.
He was a Christian. not . church
member-and did by his actions what
30 many do by their professions only.
His life was the golden rule In action.
He loved and had faith In his fellow
man. and stood at all times ready to
hold the ladder Arm while they as
cended and no Jealous envy ever en-
tered his mind. no matter how high
the ascent.
HE was q Republican and q parti-
san, but above all patriot and lover
OF his country. We need today par
