For two years before Lincoln died,
the radical leaders had been insisting
that Congress-, not the President,
should fix the terms of peace for the
southern States. They had angrily de-
nounced him as a despot, an autocrat
and a usurper, because of his policy of
reconstruction. And Congress had per-
sistently refused to admit the Senators
and Representatives from the States
which he had reconstructed on his
liberal plan.
There were patriotic men who hon.
estly shrank from entrusting the lib
erty and welfare Of the millions of
freed slaves to the rule of their old
masters. There also were calculating
politicians who were troubled only by
the thought that If the Southern States
should have white governments, the
votes of those States in Congress and
the Electoral College would imperi1
the Republican party.
The conflict between Lincoln and
Congress was forced to an issue on
the last day of the session in 1864,
when Congress adopted a reconstruc-
ton plan of it's own, under which it
was to be the final Judge Of the State
Governments in the South. sBut the

which left it lifeless.
With the ending Of the war, Lincoln
was hoping to complete the work of
reconstruction before Congress met
again and could renew it's interfer-
ence with him. Instead, the assassin
interviewed, and when Johnson attempt
ed to carry out the same policy, with
approval Of Lincoln's Cabinet, which
he retained, Congress broke into open
revolt. He appealed to the people to
stand by him, but his Swing around
the circle, as he described his tour
of the East and Middle West in 1866,
destroyed the last shred of his in
fluence in the North.
Face to face with hostile, jeering
crowds, Johnson cast aside Presiden-
tial dignity and let loose the fiery pas
sions of the Tennessee mountaineer
General Grant, who unwillingly accom-
panied him, had to step forth to quiet
riotous crowd in Lincoln's own town
Of Springfield. The General recalled
the disturbers to a sense of propriety
