GERM or IMMORTAL ADDRESS
Proof That Lincoln Long Had In Mind
Right Idea Of What the War
Meant.

Hay referred TO Brownins's sug-
gestion that the North should sub
jugate the South. exterminate the
whites, set up a black republic, and
protect the negroes while they raised
our cotton"
Some of our Northerners seem be.
wildered and dazzled by the excite
ment of the hour" Lincoln replied.
"Doolittie seems inclined to think that
this war is to result in the entire
abolition of slavery. Old Colonel Ham
ilton. a venerable and most respect
able gentleman, impress upon me
most earnestly the propriety of en-
listing tie slaves in our army" q
told him his daily mail was thickly
interspersed with such suggestions.)
For my own part" he said, Il con-
slider the central idea pervading this
struggle is the necessity that is upon
us of proving that popular government
is not an absufdity. We must settle this
question now, whether in free govern

they choose. If we fail, we will go
far to prove the incapability OF the
people to govern themselves. There
may be one consideration used in stay
of such final Judgment, but that Is not
for us to use in advance: That Is that
there exists in our case an instance
of a vast and far-reaching disturbing
element which the history Of no other
free nation will probably ever present.
That, however. is not for us to say
at present. Taking the government
as we found it, We will see If the ma
jority can preserve it,"
This statement, spoken offhand to
his secretary, reveals the foundation
of Lincoln's judgment on the Civil
war; there was at stake something
more precious than the preservation
OF the Union. something more urgent
than the abolition of slavery-and that
was democracy. Two years and half
later, in his address at Gettysburg, he
put into one imperishable sentence
the thought of which this was the
germ.-From the Diary of John Hay,
