, MESSAGE FROM LINCOLN.

-
Dnrlng one OF the darkest and most
difficult periods Of the civil war q Voi-
unteer committee called at the WINE
House To express its dissatisfaction
with various actions ana various oihls
sione of the administration
To the complaint of the committee
President Lincoln replied;
"Gantlemen, suppose all the prop
artv Won were worth was in gold ana
YOU had put IL In the hands OF Blon-
lin 10 earry across the Niagara on

is carving an enormous weight I'M
told treasures are in their hands, they
are doing the hest they can. Don
badger them. Keep silence, and we
will get you safe across.
What Lincoln said then apples
with equal force to the present sltua-
ton. THE government is carrying an
enormous weight - the heaviest
weight that any president of any adj
mnistratlon has carried since the civil
war.
This issue of peace or war, so far as
the United states is concerned, may
depend upon the loyalty and patrio-
tsm with which the American people
sustain their president and their gov
