UNION MADE GOODS.
Failure to Demand Label Helps the

There are a number of trade un-

against the onslaught made upon

L|NCOLN'S FAME
FOREVER FIXED
IN HISTORY

"HE flood of orations and edito-
| rails throughout the land, in
which the loved and honored
| name OF Abraham Lincoln ap-
pears, has for many years passed be-
fore our eyes, and the reader of them
is able to see what an immense fame
the name of Lincoln has already
achieved, and to what an extent the
popular estimate of the man verges
upon hero worship For If we wuold
know popular feeling concerning a
great name. these public memorial ad-
dresses and newspaper editorials, for
the most part attuned to the public
pulse, are better guide than the
more cautious and Unconditional esti-
mates to be found in the works of the
best historians. The mass of the
people do not read the ponderous his
tories; they do read the newspapers
and listen to the glowing periods of
the popular orator on ceremonial or
commemorative occasions.
A prominent western paper has de-
clared that Lincoln is universally re
garded as 'the one indispensable
man. OF the Civil war period. Rev.
DIR. Edward Everett Hale took occa-
sion to condemn certain phases of
the Lincoln portrait as presented in
certain popular novel OF the Civil
war period, on the ground that they
unnecessarily vulgarized Lincoln's
character. Only one newspaper edi-
torial has come to our attention which
in any way tried to exhibit some of
the possible defects of Lincoln as
statesman, and that was Enthusiastically
designed to excuse certain faults of
politicians in general by enveloping
them with the halo that surrounds a
great name. The tendency to regard
Lincoln as the one essential man,
whose wisdom was never at fault.
and whose name deservedly gathers
to itself the exclusive veneration of
the people, even to the point of wor-
ship, is unmistakable and the ques-
tion arises whether a period of reac-
tion can possibly follow this phase in
the development of what one. of our
most iconoclastic historical scholars
has called ''the Lincoln legend"
1t seems probable that the reaction
will never be very serious or pro-
nounced. Books on "The True Abra-
ham Lincoln" will undoubtedly begin
TO appear a generation or two hence.
Just as they have appeared in our
own time with Washington, Franklin
and Jefferson as subjects. A certain
nausea finally makes itself felt in
many minds after too long a period Of

future from overpraise. is slill fortu-
nately fixed on the stage of the worlds
past, and whatever reaction there may
be, even in the minds of scholars, is
not likely to assume the dimensions
OF real controversy. Historians will
never quarrel over him as they do
over Cromwell and Napoleon. or even

is not SO likely to be sharply defined

is not SO likely to be sharply defined
for posterity.
Perhaps the reason why Lincoln
will never arouse much controversy
like these other towering historical
figures is that the work he wrought
and the cause he personihed are less
open to honest differences of opinion
For two centuries after Cromwells
head was hacked from his dead body
and made public show as mock to
his name. good men were sharply d.
ical cause in England had been in any
way grounded in reason or justice.
Over the work of Napoleon men today
violently differ, and centuries may
have to elapse before a final consen-
sus of opinion regarding him will be
possible. In Lincoln's case. the sit
uation is already clear. No one, not
even the southerners. now believes
that the policy of secession was sane;
and very few of them regret that the
attempt at disunion failed. As for the
negro. whatever controversy may yet
survive as to his status. all agree that
the destruction of slavery was bless
ing And this consensus Of opinion
regarding the cause of which Lincoln
became the leader must ever present
serious attacks upon his position in
history.
But the very fact that Lincoln's
fame Is made so secure against dan
gerous assault reveals the probability
that he will be, If anything. over
praised and overglorifled. Whether
anyone will ever think it worth while
to protest against excessive estimates
of Lincoln's personal service may be
doubted. Americans, at least. are not
likely to take up the work of making
the figure Of one of their two supreme
national heroes shrink in size. For
eigners who may write on American
history will be more likely to measure
him without the bias of national feel
ing. In any event. hostile criticism
canont leave Lincoln's fame in state
of collapse. He must remain one OF

of the very greatest, ranking in the
10Th century with Just two others.
Bismarck and Napoleon, in the i'm
portance of the issues he embodied.
And still it is a mistake to assume
that Lincoln was indispensable"
Without him the north would surely
have won the fight, because of it's own
superior strength. 1t is no disparage-
ment of great men to say that their
names come to represent far more
than anything they actually were in
the flesh. The labels of these historic
figures assume abstract, impersonal
attributes, they stand for causes and
sum up the energies, the hopes, the
struggles Of whole peoples. 1t is only
fair to common humanity that tolls

The Law of GrnMih.

To join a union is like planting a
seed in a flower pot. You plant the
seed, and go to bed at night. You
wake up in the morning and there is
no change; nothing seems to have
happened during the night. The
week passes, and still there is no
change. But you know the change is
going on underneath. You wait;
you give it water and watch it, and
then, some day, Il tiny little green
shoot comes. You are oyerjoyed. You
take it to the sun. you water 1t and
watch 1t, and in the summer comes
a beautiful blossom, the result not
only of sowing the seed but of pa
tience and watchfulness. The union
Is like that. You have got not only
to pay dues, but you have got to take
